Semua Bab Our Billion-Worth Twins: Bab 491 - Bab 500

Standing in front of the display window, Catelyn admired the hand-made pieces on the stand. There were beams of light on top of every cell, and each piece appeared extremely sophisticated under the light. At the very center of the display window was a perfect white wedding gown. With a scoop-neck neckline that hugged the chest, the dress extended all the way down to the ground. Inspired by the Victorian era, small pieces of diamonds were scattered all over the hem of the dress, giving it an elegant and fairy-like appearance.Her heart stopped the moment she laid eyes on the dress. It was absolutely stunning, but she looked away immediately.Cedrick had moved closer and stood by her side. "Do you like this wedding dress?""I don't," replied Catelyn nonchalantly, albeit lying."Your expression suggests otherwise," Cedrick said stubbornly.Catelyn clenched her fists and turned to stare at him in the eyes. "Whether I like it or not has nothing to do with you, Cedrick. I've already ref

Cedrick scowled at his bleeding right arm. He tried moving it and noticed that he could still move despite the pain, so it should not be anything fatal.At that moment, the twins rushed to their side."Father, you're bleeding!" Concerned, Ollie quickly handed his clean handkerchief to Cedrick.Cedrick accepted it and casually wiped the blood off before phoning Alex."Don't run off. Uncle Alex will come and pick you up. I'll take your mother to the hospital."Understanding that his wound needed to be treated, Catelyn followed along. Since his arm was injured, they took a taxi instead of driving to the hospital, which was only a few kilometers away.The taxi arrived shortly after, and Cedrick had made the arrangement on the way, so they were allowed access into the hospital smoothly.Catelyn had thought that he would go to the emergency room to have his wound looked at, but she was baffled when she realized that they were instead walking toward the gynecology department.She grab

Catelyn was already by the door when she heard Cedrick's sharp gasp, so she stopped. She wanted to call the doctor inside but turned to find him sitting by the bed, his features twisted in pain."Are you okay?" Catelyn asked.Cedrick's lips turned pale as a layer of sweat formed on his forehead. He swayed slightly and looked as though he was about to pass out.Realizing that he was not faking it, she disregarded all other thoughts and hurried over to him. "I told you not to move around so much! The wound—mph!"Just as she reached out to steady Cedrick, he wrapped his arms around her waist abruptly so she would fall into his arms and land on his lap. He propped his chin on her shoulder and tilted his head to the side as he muttered, flustered, "You liar."Catelyn was stunned by his tone and had stopped struggling. Since he was holding her from behind, she had to look at him from the corner of her eyes while clenching her jaw. "Didn't you just lie to me as well?"Cedrick hesitated

Since Cedrick's injury concerned only his arm, he did not bother putting his jacket on. With a thick layer of bandage wrapped around his arm, his tanned skin glittered under the light. His brooding features were filled with rage as he pursed his lips."Don't move around! The wound is going to tear, and the doctor will have to come to fix you up again." Catelyn's hands were still wet from washing her hands, and because he was half-naked, she did not approach him and simply reminded him from afar.Cedrick's head snapped up when he heard her voice. He extended his left arm in an inviting manner and said, "Come here."Catelyn pursed her lips as she tried to act composed. "Your wound is hurting again, right? I told you not to move around...""Are you coming here, or do I need to go over there to grab you?" spoke Cedrick expressionlessly.Catelyn did want to find a nurse, but he refused to set his arm down. Seeing how pale he seemed, she caved in the end and walked toward him. "I'll jus

Richard grazed Maia's earlobe with his lips as he spoke, "Mai, have you forgotten that Franche is the territory of the Kingsley family? Even if you wanted to hire assassins, you should've done so through me.""The Kingsley family?" Under the influence of alcohol, she stopped before pushing him away.'That's right. How did I forget about this?' she thought to herself. 'The Kingsley family has been slowly moving their assets overseas across the years. Even the four most powerful families and other families in Sapphire City can't compare to the Kingsleys when it comes to connection and influence in Franche.'She set her glass down and turned to throw herself into his arms, drawing circles on his chest. "Are you saying this so that I'll try to please you?""I just want you to be happy." Richard breathed heavily as he palmed her waist. "Cedrick is with Catelyn now. Won't you stop thinking about them? I'll love you forever."Maia's eyes glittered with malicious intent, but she simply le
