Chapter 204 Who Said I’m Not Jealous?
Beatrice stared at the man beside her and said quickly, “He was my uncle. Distant relative.” “Even distant relatives are close. Mr. Caden is actually you… Uncle Caden?” Audrey almost dropped the plate of dumplings in her hands.
Beatrice raised her hand and took the plate. “Yes, he was passing by and left now.” She pushed Caden with her arm, signaling him to hurry up.
Caden was as steady as Mount Tai, and he lowered his gaze to the plate of dumplings. Audrey, with sharp eyes, cautiously asked, “Mr. Caden, do you want to eat? I made a lot.” Beatrice continued to interrupt: “He doesn’t eat! He has already eaten with someone else! I’ll eat with you.”
“Have you never eaten with anyone else?” Caden glanced at Beatrice with a faint gaze.
The air suddenly became still.
Audrey’s gaze wandered between the two, were they uncle and niece?
Does this conversation sound a bit childish?
Audrey saw the atmosphere becoming increasingly tense and said straightforwardly, “Why don’t we sit down and eat together? You two go in first, and I’ll go cook something.”
Beatrice was unable to stop Audrey, and she quickly went back to cook dumplings.
She could only grit her teeth and look at Caden.
He had no expression on his face, and he entered the room in a gentle manner, even skillfully taking off his coat and hanging it on Beatrice’s coat hanger.
A moment later, Audrey brought two steaming plates of dumplings and placed them on the table:
Caden nodded and said thank you, gesturing for Audrey to sit down and eat together.
Audrey was also not polite, sitting next to Beatrice and sharing a plate with her.
Beatrice had already eaten dinner, but she didn’t have much appetite. She bit her fork and stared at the man across from her who was eating dumplings.
How could he still eat?
After Audrey ate two dumplings, she couldn’t help but praise Caden, saying, “You know what, the Baldwin family produces handsome men.”
“Beatrice, your older brother who brought you back, if you didn’t say, everyone would have thought he was your boyfriend. He is considerate and gentle towards you, much better than the last boyfriend who brought you
back…”
Which pot not to open, mention which pot!
Beatrice quickly fed her a dumpling.
“Audrey, eat your food and don’t talk.”
Audrey took two bites and said in a knowing tone, “Beatrice, I’m just looking out for you. Your boyfriend is unreliable. I brought you back to remind you. You’ve been working overtime lately, and he doesn’t even show up. He doesn’t care about you at all. Don’t believe me? Ask Caden. Can

you trust a man like that?”
The man across from him became increasingly gloomy as he listened.

Beatrice rubbed her forehead and muttered, “Well, why don’t you ask him then?” Audrey dared to ask, even feeling it was only natural.
She looked at Caden and said, “Mr. Caden, you agree, right? Beatrice is so beautiful, she doesn’t need a boyfriend. Those kind of men are not good enough. If she were to find someone, she should find someone gentle and handsome like her older brother…”
“Audrey!” Beatrice raised her voice to interrupt, “The dumplings are getting cold.” Audrey nodded and lowered her head to pick up a dumpling, dipping it in vinegar. Just as she took a bite, she realized that she had forgotten to pour vinegar for both of them.
“Look at my memory, here, let me pour some for both of you too.”
She poured the vinegar and handed the vinegar dish to Caden, saying, “Mr. Caden, have some vinegar.”
Caden’s face turned several degrees colder, and he squinted his eyes, staring at the vinegar. Audrey, being hospitable, said, “This vinegar is different from the ones here. It’s brought from my hometown and tastes especially delicious. Try it, and you’ll get used to it if you eat more.”
Caden’s face darkened.
Beatrice couldn’t help but tug at the corner of her mouth for a moment, finding it somewhat amusing that Audrey said such a thing.
Little did she know, when she lifted her gaze, it happened to fall into Caden’s deep ink–black eyes.
His gaze came at her like invisible vines, carrying a sense of danger.
Beatrice coughed softly and quickly reached out to catch Audrey’s vinegar dish
“Audrey, he never got jealous, give him to me.”

But before her hand could touch the plate, Caden reached out and took it.
“Who said I didn’t get jealous.”

Beatrice looked at Caden in surprise as he dipped the vinegar.
She thought he was a bit strange.
But I didn’t care either, I lowered my head and symbolically ate two dumplings.
After Audrey finally finished eating, Beatrice wanted her to go back first. As she got up to help her tidy up, Audrey took a few minutes to rest and then started gossiping again.
“Did they really break up?” she asked, wiping the table.
“Hmm.” Beatrice glanced at Caden subconsciously and nodded.
We never got together anyway.
Audrey’s eyes lit up and she exclaimed, “I will introduce you!”
“Ah?”

Beatrice was startled.

Audrey looked up at Caden and assured, “Mr. Caden, as an elder, rest assured that I will strictly monitor her character and never let your niece suffer any losses.”
“Niece, what do you say?” Caden stared at Beatrice, his voice indifferent, revealing a hint of coldness.
Beatrice’s spine chilled, and she
and she quickly shook her head, “No, thank you.” The good thing about Audrey is that she doesn’t mind as long as you chat with her and exchange a few words.
She nodded and said, “Yeah, you’re still
young, but you must never go back to your old ways!” Beatrice felt a prickling sensation and reluctantly said, “I won’t look back… Oh, by the way, I have prepared a gift for you.”
back first.”
She quickly went to get a gift box and handed it to her, saying, “Take it back and have a look.”
Audrey felt a little embarrassed and said, “Thank you, then I’ll go
She took the plates and walked towards the door.
Suddenly, she thought of something and immediately turned around.
“By the way, my boss had a second daughter and he was extremely delighted. He said he wanted to have a unique piece of jewelry customized for his daughter, so I recommended you to him. Here is his business card.”
With that, Audrey took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to Beatrice.
“Thank you.”
Close
the door, Beatrice lowered her
her head to examine the business card.
It was discovered that Audrey seemed to have taken the wrong one, as the card she held in her hand was a handwritten phone number.
Looking at the numbers above, she inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.
But before she could recall, a sudden sense of oppression came from behind. Without even turning around, her back was pressed against a warm chest.
With a hint of displeasure, the man pressed her against the door and clasped her hands behind her back.
“Why did
you have dinner with Oscar?”
Beatrice moved her body slightly and asked back, “What does it have to do with Uncle Caden who
I have dinner with? Can you please stop meddling in my affairs?”
The last sentence, she shouted it out.
The surroundings fell silent.
Beatrice couldn’t see the man’s facial expression, but she could feel his chest rising and falling noticeably. Immediately, her wrist hurt as if it was about to break.
But the next second, the man let go of her.
Beatrice rubbed her wrist in pain and angrily said, “You go! I don’t want to see you!“–A
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the house.

But as soon
as she turned around, her neck hurt and Caden pulled her back.
The man pinched her nape and forced her to lift her head and meet his gaze. When she fell into his pitch–black pupils, she inexplicably held her breath, never having emotions churn so tumultuously.
een
His eyes were as cold as ice, and his face was as tense as a tightly pulled string
“He deceived you, and you still went out to eat with him? Beatrice, it doesn’t make sense!*
The two of them breathed in sync, and Beatrice could even feel his heavy breath.
She was about to retort, but he forcefully kissed her. She didn’t want to cooperate, so he pinched her chin and forcefully pried open her lips.
“You… bastard.”
“I could be even more reckless. You see him once, I’ll be reckless once, you give it a try!”
