When Love Turns to Ashes (Beatrice and Caden)

Chapter 260 You Are Really Understanding

Beatrice bumped into Caden's shoulder.

Although the bar was dimly lit, she could still feel the man's gaze fixed on her.

What rolled in the calm ink-black pupils, in the end, was just

"What are you afraid of?"

The man's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of restraint and self-control.

of the Adam's apple.

Beatrice lowered her gaze for a moment, then looked directly at him and said, "Don't younger generations see their elders like this?" Caden fixed his sharp gaze on her, not missing even the slightest change on her face, his intense stare leaving her breathless. But Beatrice just looked at him in confusion, without any ripples.

He let out a cold

breath from his throat, as if mocking

himself, mixed with other emotions.

But he still didn't let go of her, expressionless, he said, "I helped you, shouldn't you help me too? Hm?" Beatrice glanced at the woman beside him and nodded in understanding. "No problem, Uncle Caden."

She answered decisively, as if she would help any man who made such a request.

Caden's eyes darkened as he tightly grasped her wrist.

Beatrice hissed and whispered,

"So proactive?"

whispered, "Uncle Caden, please loosen up a bit, otherwise how can I help you?"

"I don't like owing favors, once we repay it, we'll be even," Beatrice said calmly.

"Two clearings? Very well."

The man, inexplicably filled with anger, forcefully pulled Beatrice into his arms, his palm pressing directly against her waist.

His eyes drooped, his brows were deep, but the corners of his eyes revealed a distant coldness.

"Don't bother so much, this will do. If you..."

"Okay."

Beatrice did not struggle, she even looked defiantly at the woman on the other side.

The woman's chest heaved with anger, but she dared not provoke Caden.

Caden's face, however, did not relax due to

Because... only when you don't care, it doesn't matter.

Beatrice's obedience, but instead became even more unpleasant.

Originally, I intended to use my beauty to win over Caden's clients. However, upon noticing Caden's expression, I was so frightened that I hastily ended the social engagement. "Mr. Caden, I will have the contract sent over tomorrow. I apologize for today, I didn't know you had someone with you."

"Um."

Caden responded coldly.

When she saw that everyone had left, Beatrice immediately stood up.

"Now that the matter has been resolved, I will also leave."

"I took you back home."

Caden also stood up.

Beatrice lowered her gaze and buttoned up her coat, her voice faintly saying, "No need, I'll just go downstairs and take a taxi." "Let's go."

Caden exuded a cold aura, allowing no room for others to argue.

Beatrice didn't argue anymore and followed him as he left.

Walking into the elevator, Brend asked, "Beatrice, what are you doing here?"

Beatrice raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Soder and I came here for dinner. He said the scenery here is beautiful and wanted to bring me to see it." 11:17

As soon as the words fell, the entire elevator turned cold.

Brend shrunk his neck and instinctively glanced at the man in front of him, wishing he could slap himself.

Interfering again.

Caden coldly turned his head and glanced at Beatrice, his gaze as cold as frost, "Did he just leave you here alone?" Beatrice quickly explained for Odin, "He was very busy."

Caden's eyes turned cold, and he sneered through his teeth, uttering a few words, "You really are understanding."

"Is it? I think so too," Beatrice said, quite pleased with herself.

Caden furrowed his brow.

When the three of them walked out of the hotel and waited for Keith to drive over, they heard a wailing sound not far away.

Beatrice looked closely and saw that the VIP man who had just harassed her was being held down and beaten by someone, and the people around were too afraid to intervene.

The leading man threw a punch, and the VIP man's nose bridge was broken.

"Don't touch people you shouldn't touch," the man warned.

"Yes, yes, I will never dare again."

The VIP man was almost kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, completely devoid of his previous arrogance.

Someone acted as an unsung hero, someone apologized and admitted their mistakes, but who was bearing the pain? If it were me, I would rather die together than wait for someone to save me. Brend was shocked and glanced at Caden out of the corner of his eye.

His face looked even worse.

Beatrice turned around and smiled, "How boring, I'm going to the restroom."

As soon as she left, Brend walked up to Caden and sighed.

"She really doesn't remember anything anymore, so don't try to probe."

She was forced to meet the man's gaze, and the air stood still for a moment. His brows and eyes were deep and cold, and the light inside the car spilled onto his pupils, but couldn't bring forth any warmth.

But his gaze towards her was so direct and intense that it made her feel a bit nervous.

"Uncle Caden, please let go of me."

"Don't call me Uncle," Caden retorted coldly.

Beatrice moved her hand and felt the skin that had been tightly gripped by him was burning, making her feel very uncomfortable.
