Single Party.
Menu
Beatrice had just finished calling Odin when the taxi stopped outside the hotel.
Bella was physically unable, so her bachelor party, naturally, had to be taken care of by her dear brother Odin.
So he came to the hotel early in the morning to arrange matters.
Beatrice didn’t want to bother him, so she came by taxi herself.
Because she still had Lacey’s reminder in mind, she deliberately chose to come over last, so as not to attract attention from others.
Walking into the hotel, there were not many people in the lobby anymore, but the decorations still slightly amazed
her.
In addition to the hotel’s original luxurious decoration, in order to satisfy Bella’s girlish heart, a super–sized carousel was directly moved into the lobby.
Beatrice thought it was just a decoration, but as she approached slowly, she realized that it was actually moving and even singing.
But it wasn’t a childish nursery rhyme, it was… the wedding march.
It was quite fitting.
While lost in thought, a hotel staff member approached.
He saw Beatrice wearing a dress and knew that she was the guest of honor today, so he immediately stopped the carousel with enthusiasm.
“Miss, Ms. Soder said that guests could check in and take photos. They will be made into a collection to keep. Everyone else has already taken their photos, which would you like
one
to sit in?”
Beatrice wanted to refuse, but just then a a beautiful white horse stopped in front of her.
She pointed and said, “This one.”
“Okay, today
today many people liked this little white horse, especially in the movies.” The staff saw Beatrice wearing lace gloves on one hand, and faintly glimpsed the gauze beneath the lace.
He fetched a small stool and helped Beatrice to sit on it,
Before starting, he thoughtfully pointed out a seat.
“Miss, there was a beautiful light refracted from the dome over there, which made for a perfect photo opportunity. It matched well with your dress today.”
“Thank you.”
Perhaps the young man was too kind, and Beatrice no longer had her previous doubts. She reached for her phone, leaning on the pole in front of her.
The carousel gradually spun, and the sound from the other side also became clearer.
“Mr. Caden, Ms. Soder, come closer…”
Beatrice looked over when she heard the sound and saw Bella taking photos next to the carousel while holding onto Caden.
As they were about to approach the two of them, she instinctively wanted to avoid them and supported herself with a push on the small wooden horse in front of her.
But he forgot that his right hand was completely useless.
“Ah!”

Beatrice screamed and fell off the carousel.
In
an instant, a

figure crossed over the railing and reached out to pull her back.
Beatrice crashed heavily into the man’s arms.
Before she could react, the angry voice of a man resounded above her head.
“Who let you go up? Don’t you know that you shouldn’t exert too much force with your hands?”
Beatrice paused for a moment, until she felt the hand on her waist tighten forcefully, and she looked up with difficulty, struggling to breathe.
The light from the dome above just fell, and the man stood against the backlight, with a handsome face and a halo of light around his hair, and his eyes were burning with intense heat.
He looked at her complicatedly, as if he had something to say, yet seemed to have nothing to say.
“You…” Beatrice began to speak slowly, but was interrupted by a sudden sound.
Click, click.
The
photographer quickly apologized, “Occupational hazard, Mr. Caden, I’m sorry.”
Beatrice snapped back to reality and struggled for a few moments, but Caden didn’t let go.
Until…
Bella spoke up and reminded, “Mr. Caden.”
Caden curled his fingers and immediately released Beatrice.
Beatrice felt a sudden sensation of being heavily dropped.
She lowered her gaze slightly and said distantly, “Thank you, Mr. Caden.”
“Um.”
her ear.
Caden gave a slight nod, his gaze sweeping across Beatrice’s cheek and settling by her
A pair of water droplet ruby earrings, under the light, set off her skin as fair as snow, her complexion exquisite, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a rare beauty.
At that moment, untimely mockery could be heard not far away.
“Beatrice, why are you dressed like this? Don’t you know that Bella is the protagonist today?“.
Lucia walked out from behind the photographer and pointed at the dress Beatrice was wearing.
Beatrice only then realized that her dress and Bella’s dress were almost identical, except for the details on the hem.
It should be from the same designer, the same collection.
But today Bella was the bride–to–be, and everyone would try to avoid this topic as much as possible.
Only Beatrice committed a taboo.
But the dress was clearly sent to her by Bella.
Beatrice looked at Bella, her gaze questioning.
Bella pursed her lips and said, “It must have been a coincidence.”
Lucia snorted coldly and said, “Today, thousands of people came, but no one was as coincidental as her. Who knows what she’s thinking?”
Her words attracted the attention of some guests.
Among these guests, there were many who recognized Beatrice, and their gaze seemed to roast her as if she were on fire.
Beatrice knew that whatever she said now would be useless.

Who would believe that Bella herself sent similar dresses to her?

Bella tightly held onto Caden’s arm and said with a smile, “Never mind, let’s go to another place to take photos. We have guests to meet later.”
After speaking, she looked up and stared at Caden expectantly.
Caden glanced at her, “Hmm.”
Immediately, he turned around and left with Bella.
Bella’s forehead relaxed, and she looked at Caden with a happy smile.
As he was leaving, he turned and apologetically glanced at Beatrice.
Beatrice
stood still, with the carousel above her head playing the wedding march.
“You really resembled a clown imitating Dong Shi, but unfortunately… no matter how much you imitated, Mr. Caden ultimately chose Bella.”
Lucia intentionally raised her voice, as if mocking, and more like telling everyone that the previous rumors were nothing but Beatrice’s attempt to seek attention.
After being satisfied, she left with a smile.
Let the other guests witness Beatrice’s joke.
She immediately understood the meaning behind Bella’s gift of this dress.
Recognize your own identity.
When Beatrice was ready to face the disapproving glances around her, she looked up and realized that all the people around her had disappeared at some point.
It seemed as if everything was just her illusion.
At this moment, a faint laughter came from behind.
Beatrice immediately turned around and saw Lacey gracefully approaching.
“I knew you would come, it seems like tonight will be lively.”
Beatrice looked at her in confusion, “What do you still know, after all?”
Lacey stopped in front of her, with a cold look in her eyes, but managed to maintain a faint smile on her face.
“Beatrice, invite me for dessert another day.”
་་
Beatrice looked at her inexplicably.
Lacey smiled and looked thoughtfully at the ruby earrings dangling by Beatrice’s ear: “Nice earrings, well chosen.”
She left after saying that.
Beatrice
watched Lacey’s figure disappear
disappear and always felt that she had many secrets.
Without waiting for Beatrice to think, Odin walked out of the elevator.
“Beatrice, why haven’t you come up yet for so long?”
Beatrice thought for a moment, didn’t say much, and pointed to the carousel behind her.
“Saying that we wanted to take photos, it took a little bit of time.”
“Bella insisted on having these, and my dad actually got them for her,” Odin held Beatrice’s hand and said earnestly, “If you like them, we’ll get one for ourselves in the future.”
“Hmm?” Beatrice looked at him in surprise.
“Not willing? It seems like I haven’t tried hard enough,” Odin joked.

Beatrice hesitated and tugged at him, “It’s about time, let’s go quickly.”

In the corridor.
“Mr. Caden, you walked too fast, I can’t keep up.” Bella struggled to
Bella struggled to increase her speed.
Caden stopped and stood under the eaves, lighting a cigarette.
“Why did you do this?”
“What?” Bella wondered.
Caden exhaled a white mist and coldly said, “That dress, you gave it to her.”
“Do you… even have to inspect the package you send to her? Have you become so cautious?”
Bella looked at Caden with a pale face.
