Chapter 224 It seemed that Catelyn had only reached the preliminary stage of the competition. Of course, she must not be idle; she had to clean up the plagiarism scandal, one way or another. However, she did not expect that things would take a strange turn. As soon as Catelyn came out of the shower, she received a call from Kelly Preston. She told Catelyn that after a series of careful considerations by the company’s top management, they decided to give her another chance.
To be more precise, it was another challenge. Catelyn was asked to complete five design drafts within a week and hand them to Chandier Jewelry without any charges. If her work was excellent, she would be given the opportunity to be the finalist in the competition. Otherwise, she would be removed from the jewelry designing circle of Sapphire City, never to be hired again.
It was clear that Kelly did not even care about Catelyn before this. What, then, was with the sudden change of attitude? Such a question baffled Catelyn.
After listening to the whole story, Stella curled her lips and said, “I think Chandier is trying to get some free labor! She asked you to design five drafts. According to the market price, the cheapest one will cost several thousand, not to mention that when coming from you, it’ll cost even more!”
Catelyn did not answer.
“Perhaps the company executives find out that Queenie is a fake and that you’re the original creator after all?” continued Stella. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Catelyn thought about it and decided to accept the challenge. “Whatever it is, this is an opportunity for me.”
Stella, nonetheless, was worried. “Think about it. If they’re not satisfied with your design, you’ll be kicked out of the designers’ community!” “Grandma, you need to have confidence in Mommy. I believe in her.
Come on!” insisted Ollie, his arms pressed to his chest as he cheered for his mother. Catelyn rubbed Ollie’s fluffy hair. “I’ll work hard for this,” she assured him.
Ollie raised his head and hugged her thighs, acting like a spoiled child. “Mommy is the best!”
Catelyn could not help but laugh at Ollie’s words. At that moment, she suddenly thought of Miles, kept far away from her in Mason Estate, and her amber pupils darkened. She wanted to see Miles as soon as possible. Miles was a stubborn boy, after all, and Catelyn hoped he was holding up just fine.
Catelyn had asked Cedrick to take her to the Mason Estate, and he promised to have it done.
Sure enough, Cedrick had sent a car for her the very next day.
Catelyn cooked in advance, making some biscuits and puffs that were Miles’ favorite snacks before packing the food in a beautiful lunch box. She trembled with excitement at the thought of finally seeing Miles again.
He had very strong taste buds, and Catelyn had a feeling that he might not have enjoyed the food in the Mason Estate as much.
She missed him terribly.
Meanwhile, in the Mason Estate, Miles’ teacher had arranged a math lesson for him in the afternoon.
He moved the desk to the balcony. With a small umbrella over his head, he sat lazily on the rocking chair with a book in one hand and a pen in the other. The math problems were not a challenge, of course, and Miles quickly solved them all. How boring. Why did Catelyn not come to pick him up yet? Suddenly, the sound of a car engine was heard coming from downstairs. Miles turned and took a glance, and the moment he saw the woman who got out of the car, his dull eyes lit up in an instant.
