To Ashes 8
Chapter 8 A Trap
As soon as Beatrice got out of the dormitory, someone tapped her shoulder from behind.
When she turned around, she saw a classmate panting heavily, pointing in the direction of the teaching building.
"Beatrice, Ms. Hanson wants you to go to the director's office now."
"OK." Beatrice nodded.
Then, she turned around and walked towards the teaching building.
On the way, she noticed that many people were whispering while glancing at her with their eyes filled with malice.
She knew it must be a trap waiting for her.

Beatrice went to the director's office.
As soon as she opened the door, she noticed that besides Alexa, there were also other people inside.
Caden and Madelynn.
Beatrice met Caden's cold and sharp gaze, which gave her a bad She couldn't help but hold her breath for a moment and had to clench her fist to steady her Meanwhile, Caden's gaze kept fixing on Beatrice. feeling.
pace.
At this moment, a slender figure walked up slowly and gracefully.
It was Beatrice's evil "friend", Selina Garner.
Selina helped Beatrice when she fainted due to hypoglycemia while working part-time, so Beatrice has always trusted Selina.
In her previous life, she never doubted Selina and believed almost whatever she said. But in fact, the poor student Selina and the wealthy young lady Madelynn had actually secretly colluded a long time ago. Selina had always played the innocent and secretly helped Madelynn set Beatrice up. At this time, when Beatrice entered the office, Selina immediately walked over, holding her hand and showing her concern. Before Beatrice could speak, she preemptively said, "Beatrice, just apologize to Ms. Bradford. I believe you. You definitely didn't defame Ms. Bradford online just because of the competition quota, right?" Hearing this, Beatrice thought, "So this is what all these about, huh?"
She stared at Selina with an expressionless face. Perhaps because her gaze was too direct, there

If it were in her previous life, Beatrice would really believe that Selina was doing this for her, afraid that she would offend the powerful and influential figures.
But Beatrice knew she just wanted to make her admit that she had slandered Madelynn online for drugging Caden and forcing a marriage.
Beatrice withdrew her hand and asked, "Since you believe me, why do you want me to apologize? If I really do apologize, what's its difference from admitting guilt?" *Selina suddenly didn't know what to say and remained silent for a while, staring at Beatrice in
disbelief.
But when the director, Jonah Harmon, heard Beatrice's words, he immediately changed his flattery expression to Caden and turned to glare at Beatrice.
"Beatrice! This is the school! Madelynn is the candidate we carefully selected, and you should know that very clearly. But I didn't expect you to be so jealous. You first hyped your relationship with Mr. Caden online and then spread rumors about Madelynn. You're truly an immoral student! I'll never agree to let you represent the school to attend the competition!"
Alexa, who had always been liking Beatrice, couldn't bear it anymore.
Harmon, Beatrice isn't that kind of girl. She..."
She frowned,
saying, "Mr.
Before she could finish her words, a sob sounded from the sofa.
Madelynn leaned against Caden's shoulder with tears welling up in her eyes, looking pitiful. She choked, "Mr. Harmon, Ms. Hanson, don't argue for me. Just give the opportunity to Beatrice. My reputation is already ruined. If I go attend the competition, it will only bring disgrace to the school."
With that, she looked up and stared at Caden, as if there were thousands of words she wanted to say in her eyes. But in the end, she silently swallowed her overflowing grievances back. "Mr. Caden, I'm sorry. I must have disappointed you."
Seeing this, even Alexa, who had intended to help Beatrice, felt a bit sorry for Madelynn:- This was one of Madelynn's tricks. She could always find a way to make others feel sympathy for
her.
Sure enough...
Caden held Madelynn's shoulder, his hand
lightly brushing against her clothes, looking affectionate and indulgent.
The red jade thumb ring revealed his unrivaled power.
He looked at Beatrice, his deep eyes cold and dangerous, sending a shiver down her spine. Then, he raised his hand and made a gesture.
"Beatrice, come over, or else you'll regret it," he uttered coldly.noveldrama
Beatrice remembered that in her previous life, Caden always disregarded her life and chose to protect Madelynn.
His methods were terrifying, bringing suffering to her both physically and mentally. He would destroy her hope and tear her life apart bit by bit just to make Madelynn smile. But this time, she would never compromise! Chapter 8 A Trap
Beatrice clenched her teeth and looked into Caden's eyes.
Mr. Caden, do you have any evidence?"
Caden remained silent, but there was a hint of subtle mockery on the corner of his lips.
Beatrice didn't understand what he meant.
At this time, Selina walked up.
She said, "Beatrice, I'm sorry, but I can't let you continue on this wrong path. You can't destroy the relationship between Mr. Caden and Madelynn just because of your own selfishness."
She then looked at Caden with her tearful eyes.
"Mr. Caden, I tried to stop Beatrice, but I failed. It's true that she spread rumors about Madelynn online. You can check her social media account, which she used to leak information to the paparazzi.
"In fact, she's not only vying for a spot in the competition, but she also envies Madelynn for being with you together. She has been secretly in love with you for a long time. And she always carries a love diary with her. "You can check her bag if you don't believe me."
After Selina finished her words, a tear slid down her cheek and brushed her lips, adding a touch of shyness to her delicate face. Her pitiful eyes were fixed on Caden.
If it weren't for Madelynn giving her a warning glance, she might never want to shift her gaze away from Caden.
Without waiting for Beatrice to explain, Jonah snatched her bag and rudely poured everything
out.
The next second, a pink diary appeared in front of everyone.
Madelynn pretended to be shocked and exclaimed, "Beatrice, do you have anything else to say?"
Beatrice picked up the diary and threw it in front of Madelynn without any expression on her face. "Look carefully!"
Madelynn couldn't wait to open Beatrice's diary, only to find no secret love stories but of professional notes on it.
She frowned and instinctively looked at Selina.
Selina took the diary and flipped through it three times. She was dumbfounded She murmured, "How's this possible? I clearly saw..."
"Selina, have you gone crazy? It's not me who has a secret crush on Mr. Caden. How could I possibly like him?" Beatrice chuckled lightly.
Her gaze shifted between Selina and Caden.
When Madelynn noticed this, her gaze towards Selina flashed a hint of malice. Seeing this, Beatrice smiled in her heart, "That's right. I can't wait to see you two fighting each other." However, she suddenly noticed that Caden was staring at her with a cold and indifferent gaze.

Chapter 8 A Trap
Beatrice somehow felt that he had been looking at the diary on the ground just now. She wondered, "What was he looking at?
My "love thoughts" I wrote down?
Well, he doesn't deserve my love."
Receiving Jonah's reproachful gaze, Selina immediately tried to make excuses, saying, "I don't know when she changed her diary, but her account can't be changed." As soon as her words fell, Madelynn picked up Beatrice's phone from the ground. Selina immediately told her Beatrice's password. Before Madelynn unlocked Beatrice's phone, she still showed her "generosity" hypocritically. "Beatrice, I really don't want to see you being in this situation. But as long as you admit your Mistake, we can let this matter go."
But Beatrice just snorted, "You don't dare to look?"
""Then don't blame me."
With that, Madelynn unlocked Beatrice's phone in front of Caden. But after she logged into her social media account, she was stunned.
Beatrice squatted down to pick up her things while explaining, "Unfortunately, my account got hacked yesterday. Well, luckily, I promptly contacted customer service and filed a complaint. The feedback form clearly stated the time and location of the hacking. It occurred at our school. However, I was not at school during that time."
While speaking, she casually gave Selina a glance.
Selina immediately lowered her head and pretended to be timid, as she always did. But Beatrice didn't expose her. Instead, she calmly looked at Caden.
"Mr. Caden, is there anything else you want to inquire about? If not, I need to prepare for the competition. I'll take my leave now."
She stared at Caden and emphasized the word "inquire" in her sentences expressionlessly. Caden's eyes darkened, which expression she had never seen on his face before.
