Our Billion-Worth Twins

Chapter 217

Chapter 217 Benjamin chimed in with a half-smile, “You better start looking. Time is running out.”

How provoking!

Jamie had no evidence in his hand and no lawyers to support him.

“Just you wait, Catelyn! I won’t give up just like that!” he snapped bitterly, so enraged that his face turned red. He kicked a chair on his right and left the room furiously.

Catelyn looked at Jamie darkly as he left the conference room. This was the first time she saw him so shriveled.

Blinking her amber pupils, her long curled eyelashes trembled as she applauded Benjamin.” Mister Anderson, I now understand how formidable you are. Thank you.”

Benjamin just shrugged indifferently. “You don’t need to thank me. I’d be very grateful if your man would stop threatening me with my family’s affairs.” Catelyn’s ears perked up at this. What did he mean, ‘her man? “Jamie and 1…” muttered Catelyn. It seemed their relationship was in a very complicated state. She could not just say that she had nothing to do with him anymore.

Seeing Catelyn in a flustered state, Cedrick walked up to her and squeezed her little hand.” Now that the matter is settled, let’s go have a meal together.”

Catelyn’s hands were sweaty, a contrast to Cedrick’s dry hand. When he ran his fingertips across her palm, there seemed to be a burst of electricity flowing through her fingers.

Catelyn hurriedly pulled her hand back and pretended to inadvertently fiddle with it. She smiled lightly. “You guys wait here. I’ll go to the washroom.”

Staring at Catelyn’s back as she excused herself, Benjamin nudged Cedrick’s elbow. “I’ve heard from the Athertons that you broke up with Maia for her sake.” “Quit it with the gossip,” said Cedrick. “Come on!” Benjamin looked at him. “It was such a hassle for me to drop such a big client abroad to help you and your girlfriend, yet you can’t even give me a straight answer?” Cedrick was speechless. “Still, Catelyn does look pretty. It’s no surprise why you have a change of heart,” teased Benjamin.

“You’re very nosy, you know,” deadpanned Cedrick

Benjamin chose a nearby restaurant, and Cedrick had reserved a private room. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Catelyn was dragged along as the three of them entered the restaurant together, where a waiter greeted them at the door.

“Master Cedrick, the private room has been reserved for you. It’s on the second floor, so please come with me,” said the waiter respectfully, smiling. Catelyn, meanwhile, felt a little uncomfortable holding Cedrick’s hand in public, and her palms were getting sweaty, too. She gently tugged at his clothes and mumbled, “You’re gripping my hand too tightly. It’s uncomfortable.” “You’ll get used to it,” replied Cedrick confidently, having no intention of letting her go.
