Chapter 306 Granny Atherton fell deep into a memory lane, struggling to pull herself back out.
Knock, knock!
Someone knocked at the door, and it brought Granny Atherton back to reality as she blinked away her
tears.
“Come in,” she replied.
Kelly walked in with what seemed like a secretive folder. “Old Madam, here’s the draft by Miss Catelyn
that you asked for.”
Granny Atherton put the photos aside cautiously and accepted the folder. She had only planned on
scanning through, but her eyes were glued onto it.

It was a dark, edgy design of a ring. With a bright red rose with silver-black skulls as its pistils, the
contrast between the red and white was strong and edgy. It brought Granny Atherton back in the day
when Summer, her daughter, was in her twenties and how she liked all sorts of jewelry.
She even promised herself that she would head toward a different path and design a series of edgy
jewelry.

auspiciousness-bright like a flame and blinding like the sun. The two were perfect together.
Edginess and not following the trend; the things Summer would have done.
Kelly looked at Granny Atherton, her mouth gaped open from shock. ‘What a bold and rare style,
especially in the finals of such a huge competition!
These were the things that Miss Summer would’ve done if she stayed…’
Kelly sneaked a look at Granny Atherton and realized that her eyes were brimmed with tears.
“Granny, this could’ve just been a coincidence, but Catelyn…” “She’s just like Summer,” said Granny
Atherton.
Kelly knew her name was a forbidden term, and no one dared to mention her name in front of the old
lady.
Kelly’s heart tightened when she heard Granny Atherton mention Summer’s name.
After a brief silence, Kelly added, “Miss Summer was graceful, kind, and generous, and Miss Catelyn
was a far cry from her.”
Was she, though?
Granny Atherton took a deep breath and placed the drafts on the table. “Tell me everything about the
plagiarizing incident.”
Kelly, of course, did not oppose and told everything and how Catelyn and Queenie’s designs were the
same.
Granny Atherton’s frown deepened the more she heard.
“I’ve mentioned before that I wanted to be involved in this competition. Why didn’t you tell me about this
when it first happened?” Kelly explained hurriedly, “Miss Atherton said that you’ve been feeling unwell
and that you didn’t have to know these things. On top of that, Queenie did submit her draft earlier than
Catelyn did.”
“So you only listen to her now? Am I nothing to you?” Granny Atherton spat in frustration, to which Kelly
fell silent. Granny Atherton then added, “Something happened to Catelyn again at the office. Go
investigate.” Kelly nodded quietly and was about to leave to start the investigation. Just as she was
about to go, however, Granny Atherton’s voice called out to her from behind, “Wait.” Kelly stopped and
awaited her order. “Keep this away from Lola. She doesn’t have to know what you’re doing this time.”
Kelly was stunned at this and realized that Lola had lost Granny Atherton’s trust. Meanwhile, Cedrick and
Edwin were trying to find out the truth behind Catelyn’s laxative
incident.

fraction of her strength once more and woke up from her sleep, the first thing she asked Cedrick was
about the competition.
Cedrick frowned when he realized just how absorbed Catelyn was about the competition.
“Is the competition worth more than your life that you’d run to the middle of the road to stop a car?”
Do you think the water was spiked?”

Cedrick’s eyes were filled with cold rage as he said, “Give me more details. I’ll have Edwin check the
surveillance cameras.”
Catelyn told him the exact location and approximate time, including what row she was seated in.
Cedrick sent Edwin the details and swore to himself to find the person behind this mess.
Cedrick then turned around to face Catelyn. “You’re such an idiot. You knew there were people in
Chandier Jewelry that hated you, yet you drank the water they gave you?” Catelyn had been lectured by
him all day and started feeling upset after he called her an idiot. “If I’m not dumb enough, how are you
supposed to look smart around me?” “Really now?” Cedrick uttered deeply. Catelyn dug into her blanket
and was ready to talk back to him.
