Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 293

Chapter 293

It was the day for the Chandier Jewelry contest’s final round.

Catelyn had heard that the initial rule of the contest dictated that the higher management, including Lola, was to collect the drafts before submitting them to Granny Atherton to ensure fairness when the winner was chosen. However, she had a change of heart and amended the rules as she wanted to appear in the contest herself.

All the contestants were divided into three groups to go up to the stage to explain the concept behind their designs. Granny Atherton and the other judges were to mark the design on the spot until they eventually settled on a winner.

The fact that Lola was no longer involved in the process was good news to Catelyn as she would not have to worry about Lola trying to screw her chances.

Catelyn happened to be in the group that was scheduled in the morning. She had to head out earlier and had skipped breakfast, deciding that she would simply pick up food from stalls by the road.

She went downstairs and was about to cross the road to get to the bus station when she noticed that Cedrick had been waiting for her.

After not seeing one another for two days, Catelyn was slightly taken by surprise. He had been so angry the other day that she thought he would not be willing to drive her to the contest. Cedrick unlocked the car door and glared coldly at her through the glass window. “What are you doing, standing on the side of the road? Get in.” Catelyn pouted at his short temper, but smiled regardless and said, “Thank you for giving me a ride. Sorry for the trouble.”

She pulled the door open and went in. Before she could fasten her seatbelt, Cedrick stepped onto the accelerator and the car darted forward onto the highway. Catelyn was tossed backward by the sudden shift of gravity, bumping her head into the door. She gritted her teeth at the sharp pain and turned to glare at Cedrick. “What are you doing?”

She had not asked him to pick her up, and he could have not come at all if he was not willing to.
