All Chapters of Our Billion-Worth Twins: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Ollie's eyes widened dazedly as though he had not been able to process what his father had just told him.Cedrick had Albert bring over the medicine and a glass of warm water as he stood by Ollie's bedside. "The doctor said that you are to take this medicine as soon as you wake up."Ollie's dark eyes averted elsewhere. "Are you trying to trick me?""…""Once I finish my medicine, are you going to change your mind and not let me make Aunt Catelyn the designer for my mansion?"Ollie stared at his father with doubt. Though he was not even four, he knew that people make strategic lies.Edwin, on the other hand, was close to bursting into laughter.Cedrick gave him a cold glare and Edwin barely managed to keep his laughter in, but then he heard Cedrick asking Ollie, "How do I make you believe that I'm not lying to you, then?"Ollie straightened his back and puffed his cheeks."I want you to call Aunt Catelyn in front of me and invite her to design my mansion for me again." He pause

By the time Catelyn arrived at the mansion located south of the city, it was a little over two in the afternoon. The last time she was here, there was only a general outline of the mansion, but at this moment, there had been a temporary lounge where the porch was. It looked slightly like a tin house with the roof in blue and the walls in white.Eason noticed that she was sweating from rushing over and handed her a piece of wet tissue before pointing at the lounge. "Master Cedrick is waiting for you inside."Catelyn took a few deep breaths to adjust herself before she headed in.The temperature of the lounge was much lower in comparison to the outside as though it was a completely separate world.Cedrick sat lazily on a simplistic chair, his tailor-made suit wrapped around his athletic body. His handsome features were as perfect as that of a statue, and with his lips pursed, he oozed an intimidating aura that repelled anyone who tried to get closer to him.Catelyn knocked on the do

Catelyn felt all strength leaving her feet as she gaped at Stella's response. "One million?"Was that what she meant by 'not much'?"You can't just let me die!" Stella grabbed Catelyn's hand and wailed. She then continued, her next words laced with a vague threat and persistence, "You have to help me even if you don't want to, or the apartment we're living in will be gone!"A chilling premonition instantly overwhelmed Catelyn. "What else have you done behind my back?""I…" With how things had already escalated, Stella decided not to hide anything and, with a flushed face, confessed, "I stole your property certificate to use it as a mortgage. Why else do you think they'd lend me that much money?"The two-room apartment that Catelyn was living in at the time might not be spacious, but the location was very ideal, and after a few years of development in the area, the apartment's value had surpassed one million even if they were to deduct the remaining housing loan from the bank.Tea

It was a strange yet familiar scent to Cedrick, and he had only ever caught a whiff of it on one person.He narrowed his eyes and scanned the room before locking onto a certain spot. He thought back to the unlocked door and smirked in realization.The conservation ceased, and Catelyn's heart throbbed with anxiety. She contemplated whether she should lift the tablecloth to check on the situation outside when suddenly, a pair of shiny black leather shoes appeared right before her eyes as the man sat down on the chair near her.The strong presence of the man overwhelmed her. Startled, she immediately moved deeper inside to avoid Cedrick's long legs. However, two pairs of feet appeared behind her as Charles and Eason took their seats as well.Catelyn was left with no other way but to move toward another corner desperately, hoping that they would not discover her."Master Cedrick, if we manage to buy Millions Pharmaceutical out, it'll provide us with tremendous aid in entering the phar

The crimson red liquid slowly filled the wine glass. Cedrick gently twirled and tasted the wine as his eyes locked on Catelyn.The refreshing scent of gardenia in the air had become more distinct once she revealed herself.Catelyn knew that explaining herself would only further the misunderstanding and decided to not even try. She grabbed onto the envelope with the check inside and headed straight for the door. However, her legs had been numb and she did not last a few steps before losing balance.She stumbled and fell toward the ground while Cedrick happened to be standing by the wine cabinet next to the door.Her heart raced from fear and she could not help but reach out frantically in an attempt to grab onto someone.Thud!Her knees landed on the mat, sending sharp pain from her knees, and the numbness went away with it.The air froze around them as the tension rose.Catelyn did not dare look at Cedrick; how she desperately wished she could just die on the spot. "I…"Before
