Keith returned to Caden’s side and whispered, “Mr. Caden, Ms. Lindsey left on her own.”
Caden remained silent for a few seconds, “Find someone to keep an eye on her.”
“Yes. And…” Keith leaned in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Caden nodded without any expression.
walked up to Madelynn and reached out to take the bag off the luggage rack for her, while also raping his arm around her shoulder.
“Burlington was colder than Chicago.”
“Um.”
Madelynn blushed and her eyes were filled with intense eagerness.
The surrounding guests stared at her with envy.

After Beatrice got her luggage, she found Alicia.
Alicia was a person.
“Madelynn didn’t go with us.”
“Um.”
Beatrice guessed.
Just as I was thinking, there was a commotion not far away.
Caden led Madelynn out of the airport, walking slowly. The surroundings were already as chaotic as a celebrity’s arrival.
Madelynn looked up at Beatrice and instinctively tightened the men’s coat she was wearing, burying half of her face in the collar.
The exposed eyes were filled with pride.
As for Caden, he did not find Beatrice. Instead, he focused on blocking the approaching journalists, afraid that someone might push past him to get to the woman he was protecting.
Beatrice held onto her suitcase and averted her gaze.
“Ms. Moreno, let’s go.”
“Well, the car should be here by now. Let’s go back to the hotel and take a rest. In the evening, you

of Madelynn.
Madelynn was still savoring Caden’s gentleness all the way, even though the room was well–heated, she didn’t take off the men’s coat on her body.
She poured a cup of tea and handed it over with a smile, saying, “Mr. Caden, you’ve had a tough

“No need, you can go back to your room and rest,” Caden loosened his tie and spoke lightly.
I heard that Madelynn smiled even more.
Caden came to Burlington for a business trip, she knew it.
So Alicia arranged both the flight and hotel together for this trip.
I thought Caden would be angry if he found out, but to my surprise, he has been extremely considerate towards her all along the way.
She knew that Caden must have had feelings for her.
Madelynn turned around and walked up to Caden. She reached out to untie his tie, and seeing that Caden didn’t refuse, her heart couldn’t help but flutter.
With a little more courage, she shyly said, “Mr. Caden, can I stay here to rest?” Caden lowered his gaze, allowing her to remove his tie. “Hmm. The master bedroom is at the very end.”
Madelynn fiddled with the tie in her hand, blushing, “Then I’ll wait for you.

The Baldwin family.
The butler knocked on the door and entered the tea room, handing the tablet to Xander, who was drinking tea.
“It was Mr. Caden and Ms. Bradford, they entered a room and didn’t come out for the whole afternoon.”
Xander put down the teacup and looked carefully at the photos online, his expression unclear.
“He went around in circles just to help Madelynn
Madelynn retreat completely?
“It seems to be true, as the two of them were photographed together on a business trip. Ms. Bradford’s current reputation has returned to what it used to be, and she has not been influenced by Sara,” the butler whispered.

completely relax.
“I can’t understand Caden’s thoughts anymore, what does he really want?”
“Mr. Caden always treated Ms. Bradford with small punishments and severe reprimands, showing a strong bias towards her, which indicates that he had developed genuine feelings for Ms. Bradford.”
“True feelings?”
Xander tapped his fingertips on the tablet a few times, his face wearing an inscrutable expression. A moment later, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then calmly said, “Tell them to keep an eye on Beatrice.”
“Ms. Lindsey?” The butler thought he had misheard.
“Um.”
Xander lifted his gaze, his eyes already saying it all.
The butler hesitated for a moment, then immediately lowered his head and nodded,

Evening.
Beatrice changed into a more modest outfit, with very light makeup, understated and clean. After all, she was just Alicia’s employee and couldn’t steal the limelight. As I was leaving, a hot search appeared on my phone.
Mr. Caden and Madelynn spent a passionate afternoon together.
Just by looking at the title, Beatrice knew what the content was.
She glanced at the headline, clicked ignore, and calmly put on her high heels before walking out of the room.
I bumped into Alicia as soon as I entered the elevator.
Alicia wore a jumpsuit, with a V–neck adorned with a pearl necklace, exuding elegance and professionalism.
She glanced at Beatrice and said, “You don’t have to dress so plain.”
Beatrice smiled and said, “I thought it was good.”
Looking at her smile, Alicia was slightly shocked and didn’t ask any further.
Alicia glanced at the time and said with some dissatisfaction, “Why hasn’t Madelynn arrived yet? She used to be the most proactive, but now she’s nowhere to be seen.”
As soon as the words fell.
Madelynn walked over in a white off–the–shoulder long dress.
She applied highlighter on her collarbone, and her shiny collarbones could be seen from afar.
But she unnecessarily tied a half–inch wide red velvet ribbon around her neck.
At one point, it was unclear whether her focus was on her neck or her collarbone.
Madelynn stopped in front of Alicia and Beatrice, her face turning red.
“Ms. Moreno, I’m sorry, but I couldn’t accompany you to the party today. Mr. Caden asked me to accompany him for a social engagement.”
Alicia frowned, “You should have informed me earlier so that I could have prepared in advance. Don’t forget, this trip is for business, not for leisure.”
Madelynn’s eyes flickered, and she reluctantly said, “I didn’t want to either, but Mr. Caden insisted that I accompany him. The people we were having dinner with were also relatives of the Baldwin family, so I couldn’t refuse.”
As the words fell, she glanced briefly at Beatrice.
As I raised my hand to tidy my hair, I accidentally touched the ribbon on my neck, revealing a blood–red mark.
exactly what it was.
Thinking back to the trending topic, Beatrice knew exactly

Quite intense love bites.

make it look strikingly odd and draw attention to the out–of–place red ribbon.
Madelynn awkwardly touched her neck and said, “I had already told Mr. Caden not to leave any marks, but who knew he would… I’m sorry, Beatrice.”
Beatrice said expressionlessly, “What’s it to me? It’s not like I made him bite you. If you feel embarrassed, go ahead and bite him back, it’s quite romantic.”
Madelynn choked slightly.
Seeing this, Alicia, taking into account Madelynn’s position, didn’t bother to argue. “Alright, I got it. You go and accompany Mr. Caden, Beatrice and I will leave first.” Beatrice nodded and was about to turn around when Caden led the people downstairs.
Madelynn immediately approached and affectionately linked her arm with his: “Mr. Caden, you’re here! Beatrice was just saying that I should spend some quality time with you, praising us for being so charming.”
Upon hearing this, Beatrice really wanted to roll her eyes.
But before she could even lift her eyelids, a cold and icy gaze fell upon her. “You were quite good at speaking.”
“Thank
you,” Beatrice pursed her lips and turned to Alicia. “Ms. Moreno, I’ll go outside to check on the car. You two can chat.”
As she turned around, Madelynn called out to her with
“Beatrice, I hope you had a great time.”
Beatrice ignored her and walked straight out of the hotel lobby.
beaming smile.
In no time, Caden took Madelynn out and without even lifting an eyelid, got into the car and left.
A few seconds later, Alicia walked out and approached Beatrice, just as she hung up the phone.
“Beatrice, there was a last–minute notice saying that the location has been changed.”
