Chapter 422
She started using this method to threaten even before she signed the document.
This reminded Beatrice of her past life, the official injury report provided by Madelynn and that child.
The trouble was here all along.
“Beatrice! Have you had enough of causing trouble? Are you shameless or what?”
Xander furrowed his brows, and his shrewd eyes emitted a chilling warning.
Without waiting for Beatrice to retort, Madelynn gently stepped forward to defend Xander.
“Sir Baldwin, don’t be upset, it’s not worth harming your health. Let me go and persuade Beatrice.”

With that, she turned her head and looked at Beatrice, earnestly saying, “Beatrice, you really made a mistake this time. If you apologize, Sara won’t hold it against you. Do you have to be so selfish and make everyone unhappy?”
Selfish?
Beatrice couldn’t help but sneer.
Because she was the scapegoat that everyone could criticize, everyone was particularly harmonious and balanced.
Back then, forcing her to admit to drugging and getting into bed was also the case.
The so–called harmony and balance is nothing but making her compromise.
She went from having to endure hardships to becoming someone in their eyes who could handle a little hardship without much consequence.
She just wanted to break free from this twisted balance and ended up becoming selfish.
Beatrice turned her head and stared at Madelynn, asking word by word, “Ms. Bradford cares so much about friends, why don’t you ask Ms. Melendez how she knows me? And how did she find me to joke around?”
Madelynn’s eyes flickered, and she said in a slightly panicked tone,‘
,“Sara was just drunk and mistook someone.”
“That was a coincidence, if I hadn’t mistaken her, she probably wouldn’t have ended up like this, right?”
Beatrice pointed at the disheveled Sara.
As long as Sara wasn’t foolish, she could hear the hidden meaning behind her words.
It was Madelynn who induced her to come to her.
Madelynn clenched her back teeth, but when she turned to Sara, she put on a gentle and pitiful expression.
“Sorry, Sara, I was tongue–tied and couldn’t argue with Beatrice’s unreasonable words.”
After speaking, tears immediately rolled down her eyes.
Sara still chose to believe her and gave a signal to the police.
The police seemingly kindly reminded Beatrice, “Ms. Lindsey, you do not have any evidence to prove that Ms. Melendez kidnapped and harmed you. Even if a case is filed, it will not change any outcome but will only make you lose face.”
This time, Beatrice didn’t wait for others to speak and said first, “Who said I didn’t?”
Suddenly, the faces of several people changed, and even Sara sitting in the wheelchair almost wanted to stand up.
Beatrice took out her phone from her pocket and smiled faintly, “The evidence is that Ms. Melendez personally delivered it.”
