Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281 “Thank you for offering me this opportunity.” The supervisor complimented Catelyn out of formality for a little bit before introducing her to the company strategy and reorganization. Catelyn was hired as the Assistant Architect. Meanwhile, on the top floor, in the CEO’s office… Charles was having a hard time. Cedrick had very drastic mood swings today.

He could appear to be normal, but within the next second, he would be interrogating a person until they could not answer.

Charles checked the time and figured that it should be about time.

“Cedrick, Miss Clark should be on the twelfth floor for her interview already.”

Cedrick did not say anything but merely continued working on his documents. When he finally finished the last document in his hand, he waved, signaling that Charles could leave already.

Charles felt relieved and fled immediately.

Cedrick fell silent for a brief moment before he turned on his computer and worked on it. Suddenly, a window popped up, showing the surveillance footage of the 12th-floor interview room.

The scene that appeared on his screen was the very moment that Catelyn shook hands with the human resource officer, smiling.

Cedrick stared at it blankly for a second.

He felt that there was a rock on his chest, and it was hard for him to breathe, yet his gaze lingered on the screen and did not move away.

The girl on his screen had her hair tied up crisply, wearing a white blouse and a pencil skirt. Her nose was dainty but prominent, her lips painted red with lipstick. Despite not hearing what they were talking about, their smiles were evident.

She then went to the store nearby to get a few things.

Even though she did not get in due to her skills, she deserved a reward or two for herself. She had been working hard all along, anyway. However, as soon as she arrived at Ocean Park Residence, she saw a man leaning against his car.

His tall figure was slanted, his eyes dark. He looked distant and approachable to just anyone.

In between his fingers was a burning cigarette. His leather shoes were slightly dusted, but he did not seem to care. Catelyn almost dropped her shopping bag in sheer shock at the sight. What was he doing here? Catelyn, wanting to avoid him instinctively, decided to go in through the backdoor. However, Cedrick had already noticed her and called her name, “Catelyn!” Catelyn stiffened upon hearing him calling her name. Nonetheless, she turned and went up to him, pretending nothing happened. “Hi! What a coincidence. I just did some grocery shopping and didn’t notice you were here. Were you waiting for me?”

Cedrick looked at her coldly. She seemed to be in a good mood. Was it because she got the offer? Was it because he did not bug her in the past few days? “I wasn’t waiting for you. I was waiting for your son.” Cedrick pretended to not have seen Catelyn attempting to avoid him but went straight to his boot to retrieve something that looked to be a huge present box.
