Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497

Catelyn blushed at the question and mumbled, “Nothing.” She then ran off to the bathroom.

She had been swift, but Alex was a trained bodyguard with sharp eyes, and he spotted her swollen lips right away. Confused, he wondered if she and Cedrick had settled their disagreement. If so, he and Charles would finally be able to relax.

In the bathroom, Catelyn touched her burning lips and noticed that they were swollen, just as she had expected

Cedrick Mason, that beast!’ she grumbled. ‘It wasn’t even a kiss anymore. He was straight up chewing on them.

What frustrated her more was that the skin on her lips was torn to the point that ointment would not help the swelling, let alone the fact that she did not have any ointment. Still, she could not just walk out looking this way either.

Just as she started panicking, she recalled that there were free face masks at the hospital lobby hall and went to get one-despite the embarrassment-before heading to the counter to make payment.

They had been in too much a hurry, and the fee for Cedrick’s stay in the hospital had yet to be paid. Considering the fact that he got injured from protecting her, Catelyn saw it fit for her to pay.

“Hello. That’ll be a total of 13829.40 Eiro.” The nurse handed the bill to Catelyn.

Catelyn’s eyes widened in disbelief as she doubted her ears. “Excuse me? How much did you say it was?”

The nurse gave her an impatient look but repeated herself out of professionalism, “The VVIP room in our hospital cost 2500 Eiro per night, which included the consultation and meals. You’ve also made a booking for a consultation with a gynecologist, right? That hasn’t been paid yet either.”

‘To hell with capitalism! It’s no wonder people say it’s better to lose a bag of blood than to come to the hospital, grumbled Catelyn inwardly.
