Chapter 111 The Truth Is Crueler Than Reality
The next morning, autumn rain fell, a fine and gentle rain, hitting her face like a cold startled Beatrice.

She carried the steaming breakfast and arrived at the hospital. Just as she reached the entrance of the inpatient department, her phone rang.
Monica made an urgent phone call!
“Did you check the trending topics?”
“No,” Beatrice replied nonchalantly, and continued walking ahead.
“You quickly show it to me!”
This was the first time Monica spoke to Beatrice in such a firm tone.
Beatrice paused for a few seconds, then brought her phone in front of her and clicked on the trending headline on the screen.
The next second, her pupils trembled slightly, and the breakfast in her hand fell to the ground and scattered all over.
“The Baldwin Group’s biggest collaboration this year was intercepted by the Powell Group!”
The Powell Group.
Jessie.
How could this happen?
Why did it become the Powell Group when she clearly had Oscar sign the contract on behalf of the Baldwin Group?
Monica’s voice on the phone gradually grew louder, and her tone also became slightly more
intense.
“Beatrice, Ryan said you had been to the Baldwin Group. Did you have anything to do with this thing?”
“Mom…”
TA
Beatrice’s throat was dry and sore, and she couldn’t utter a complete sentence The thunderous sound of her heartbeat made her eardrums ache. Monica said something behind her, but she didn’t hear a word, not even when the phone hung up.
Beatrice went upstairs in a daze, pushed open the door of the ward, and Jessie was there too. She looked straight at Oscar on the bed, wanting him to give her an explanation. Oscar glanced at her, furrowing his brows slightly, and then turned his face away without saying
a word.
Seeing that something was wrong, Jessie got up and walked over to Beatrice. Just like before, she gently held her hand.
“Beatrice, thank you so much this time. The Powell family has always been oppressed by Caden, but today we finally have a sense of relief. We all remember your kindness towards Oscar, our eldest brother.”
Jessie’s tone remained as gentle as ever, only emphasizing the words “big brother“.

It was as if to remind Beatrice intentionally that, although she had helped Oscar, they were only Siblings, so she should not have any unrealistic expectations.
Beatrice felt a chill run through her body, and her face turned slightly pale. She used to understand that Jessie didn’t want her to get too close to Oscar. After all, Oscar was the eldest grandson of the Baldwin family, so in the future, he would definitely marry a wealthy heiress.
There is not a single mother who did not want her son to be well, especially those like them who are orphans with widowed mothers.
Now, Beatrice only realized that when she was considering their well–being, they were actually plotting against her and being cautious not to give her too much.
Beatrice quickly withdrew her hand and smirked, “Madam, I dare not be Mr. Oscar’s sister. I am
ot fortunate enough for that.”
Jessie’s hand froze in mid–air, and her eyes no longer concealed her disdain for Beatrice. “Beatrice, I’m also doing this for your own good. One must always recognize their identity and know what they should and shouldn’t pursue. Besides, we both know very well that you’re no longer a young innocent girl. You might not even find a man who would be interested in alone one you have to chase after.”

Upon hearing this, Beatrice’s shoulders trembled slightly, her mind buzzing as if she had been punched hard, feeling dizzy and nauseous.
In her previous life, until Jessie was sent abroad, she always showed concern for Beatrice, and even shed tears secretly when she saw her unhappy staying by Caden’s side. And in front of her, Jessie stomped her self–esteem into the ground, even spitting in dissatisfaction.
Beatrice forcefully swallowed her nausea and coldly looked at Jessie, reminding her,“Madam, Nyasia and I had some acquaintance. I believe she must be very curious now why the Kaiser family suddenly signed a contract with you.”
Jessie was taken aback, her face, which had always been sickly pale, was now filled with ferocity. “You shouldn’t think about talking nonsense! The contract has been signed, and the will cooperate

“Moreover… Beatrice, it was you who came knocking on the door! It was you help Oscar, no one forced you.”
“If you dare to destroy the Powell family, I will destroy you again.”
Again?
What does it mean?
Beatrice looked at Jessie with some doubt.
She did not worry about Oscar at first, but the Powell family.
Beatrice was about to speak when Oscar suddenly got up from the bed and interrupted. “Beatrice, enough, stop making noise.”
Mom, after all, Beatrice helped me. Don’t say such things about her. You go out and wait for me first.”

Oscar pushed Jessie.

Jessie warned Beatrice with a glare and turned around, walking out of the ward.
In the end, only Beatrice and Oscar remained in the ward.
Oscar raised his hand towards Beatrice, but she dodged it.
She said coldly, “Big brother, don’t you have anything to explain to me?”
Oscar’s face darkened slightly as he let go of Beatrice’s hand and said, “Beatrice, you don’t understand.”
“I don’t understand? So you can just take advantage of me? I treated you as a friend and family, I cherished the kindness you showed me, I was afraid of you and your son being wronged, is this how you treat me?” Beatrice questioned.
didn’t want to be your friend and family!”
As the words fell, Oscar disregarded Beatrice’s resistance and suddenly embraced her, even his arm in a cast moved freely.
Beatrice was stunned, staring at his plastered hand intently.“Is this what you call love? You even lied to me about getting injured?”
She struggled hard, but Oscar, in turn, broke the jar and firmly seized her body. “Beatrice! I had to fight! I was the eldest son of the Baldwin family! I was the heir!”
“But because of Caden, I had nothing, I didn’t even have a father anymore. Can you say that you have no connection with Caden?”
“Why else would Caden enter the Baldwin Group as the heir when my father died? Do you know how those people mocked me during that time?”
“The Baldwin family never had a chance as long as Caden was around! If that’s the case, why can’t I help the Powell Group?”
“Beatrice, I didn’t mind what happened between you and Caden, believe me, I could definitely do better than Caden, I can give you everything you want!”
Oscar pressed his forehead against Beatrice’s.
But Beatrice, because of his words, became stiff all over.
He didn’t mind?

Moreover, why did she want others not to dislike her?
Beatrice couldn’t free herself from his hands, so she simply stayed still and asked expressionlessly, “Big brother, do you still remember what said?”
“What did you say?”

Oscar noticed that Beatrice had stopped struggling and her tone became gentle. Beatrice slowly spoke about his confession to her in his past life and present life. “You said you would take me away from here, and we would live a good life abroad. If I agree to that, the condition is that you give up everything you have now. Are you willing?”
As the words fell, Oscar’s body stiffened.

He stood up straight, gripping Beatrice’s shoulders tightly with both hands, and looked at her intently as he said, “Beatrice, I could handle everything here.”
“So you don’t want to, right?” Beatrice said directly.
“Beatrice, why do you have to choose? Can’t I have them both?” Oscar said in a deep voice.
“Why me, specifically? Because I had slept with Caden, so you’re happy to use me to get everything from him, right?”
Originally, in her previous life, he said he would take her away, but it wasn’t sincere. It was only because she was Caden’s wife, and if she left with him, she could fiercely slap Caden’s face. At that moment, Beatrice only realized how the truth could be more cruel than reality. Perhaps struck by the words that hit home, Oscar’s face darkened a bit, and the grip on Beatrice’s shoulders tightened slightly.
Beatrice, I’ll take it as you were just talking nonsense. I don’t want to hear it again next time.” After saying that, Oscar cupped Beatrice’s head and kissed her.
