Chapter 334 You’re Getting Married Soon
Beatrice found Odin and that woman in the burn unit.
Mere
Both of them had their backs to the door. As the doctor and nurse were tending to the woman’s wound, she immediately retreated into Odin’s embrace.
“It hurt so much, I was so scared.”
That sound… sounds familiar.
But Beatrice could never remember where she had heard it before.
Until a nurse came with medicine and said, “Miss, please make way.”
The sound startled the people inside, and Odin and the woman turned their heads at the same time to look.
Odin was surprised and said, “Beatrice.”
Beatrice snapped back to reality and got a clear view of the woman’s appearance.
It was the woman in the supermarket, named… Lacey.
The woman looked at her with a faint expression, as if she had already anticipated their meeting again.
It seems that the supermarket encounter was also fake.
Lacey, in front of Beatrice, gently approached Odin, her eyes floating lightly with a hint of provocation.
In an instant, Beatrice swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, and she changed her tone, saying, “Mr. Soder, this young lady is…”
Hearing the sound, Lacey’s eyes flickered.
Beatrice knew that she wanted to provoke herself, so she loudly questioned Odin in this public setting.
Odin had an extraordinary identity and he detested making
So Beatrice pretended not to know Lacey directly.
Isn’t it just acting?
scene in public.
In terms of acting, Lacey’s current gaze is not even half as good as Madelynn’s.
Odin listened and quickly explained, “This person is a relative of the Baldwin family, who came to attend the wedding. Just now, while eating, they accidentally got burned sitting next to me.”
When he spoke, it was as if he had been scalded, fast and urgent.
Lacey didn’t say a word beside.
Beatrice smiled at Lacey and said, “Miss, are you okay?”
“It’s nothing,” Lacey shook her head, her gaze falling on Beatrice’s injured hand. “But… I might need Mr. Soder to give me a ride back later.”
As she spoke, she deliberately raised her hand, which had a large blister on it, looking quite serious. Since the burn was related to Odin, Odin couldn’t possibly ignore it.
But this would require Odin to make a choice between Beatrice and Lacey. Was it accompanying my girlfriend for therapy at the hospital or escorting someone else home?
furrowed his brows slightly and turned around, intending to approach

Beatrice.
Just as the nurse popped Lacey’s blister, she immediately reached out and grabbed Odin, saying, “That hurts.” Odin could only stop in his tracks.
Lacey glanced at Beatrice, as if she was testing how long she could endure.

Beatrice ignored Lacey’s gaze and walked straight up to Odin.

“You can take this young lady back first, I will go to the therapy room by myself. You have been busy lately, so there’s no need for you to keep running around.”
“I will come to find you in a moment,” Odin said, as he shook her hand, his eyes seemingly indicating something.
Beatrice didn’t ask much, she just nodded.
After Lacey had treated the wound, she took a deep look at Beatrice before leaving with Odin.
On the way back.
Lacey took advantage of the car passing over the speed bump and lay her whole body on Odin’s legs.
Odin calmly raised his hand and coldly lowered his gaze, reminding, “It’s over.”
“Mr. Soder, what are you saying? I don’t understand.”
Lacey half–supported her body, not minding the deep V neckline revealing a hint of spring.
Although the tone was mixed with deliberate affectation, the face remained remarkably calm.
Just like a bad actor, even though she was seen through by others, she could still continue acting as if nothing had happened.
Odin averted his gaze and directly sent her to the Baldwin’s mansion.
After Lacey got off the
car, the butler noticed that her face looked a bit gloomy.
“Miss, Sir Baldwin was in the study.‘
“Um.”
Lacey sneered and turned to follow the butler into the study.
When the door was closed, the butler forcefully shut it.
In the next second, there came the sound of a person falling to the ground, along with a reproachful voice.
Useless things, can even be sent back intact!”
Hospital, therapy room.
brace, a sudden pain made her break out in a cold sweat.
After Beatrice put on the brace,
“It hurt.”
“Endure it for a while, it will prevent your muscles from atrophying,” the doctor reminded.
“Um.”
Beatrice nodded her head in pain.
But as soon as the doctor left, she couldn’t hold on any longer and bit her lip tightly.
Soon, there was a strong smell of blood in the mouth.
She didn’t want others to see her weakness, so she could only lower her head and endure.
Suddenly, the injured hand warmed up.
In a daze, Beatrice looked up at Caden who slowly sat down in front of her.
She wanted to pull back her hand, but she couldn’t exert any strength at all, instead worsening the pain. Caden held her fingers and furrowed his brow, saying, “Don’t move.”
Beatrice looked at the patients entering one by one and could only lower her voice, word by word, saying, “Please
go of me, do you think I am not pitiful enough like this?”

Upon hearing these words, Caden’s eyes dimmed slightly, and his tall figure exuded a touch of silence. He gently stroked Beatrice’s trembling hand, his throat tightening, “Now you have me in your grasp as well.”
“I dare not,” Beatrice said coldly.
As the words fell, her fingers suddenly moved.
Caden’s grip tightened, his breath heavy. “Your hand has regained sensation, I’ll go find a doctor…”
Beatrice, however, looked up and interrupted coldly, “No need, it’s just a reflex. Even the muscles of a freshly deceased person can react to stimuli.”
Caden’s face turned frosty as he silently watched her, as if something was quietly shattering between the two of them.
Beatrice took the opportunity to pull back her arm, but it intensified the pain caused by the restraint. In an instant, a layer of mist welled up in her eyes, uncontrollably.
Caden grabbed her arm tightly and forcefully pulled her into his embrace, burying his cheek deeply into the crook of her neck, his ragged breaths spraying heavily onto her skin.
She struggled hard, while her other hand scratched his neck, but he
but he held on tighter.
She appeared as if she was venting her emotions without restraint.
The more it was like this, the more Beatrice felt wronged, she clearly shouldn’t be like this.
She lowered her hand, turned her head away, and when she spoke again, she was already calm: “Mr. Caden, mind your own business. My matters have nothing to do with you.”
The man’s eyes sank, filled with danger, as he raised his hand to support Beatr gaze.
“You couldn’t look at me every time you
lied.”

“What about this then?” Beatrice stared at him, speaking earnestly, “My matters have nothing to do with you.” After speaking, the tension in her neck tightened.
Caden was like a demon in the darkness, with a terrifyingly paranoid gaze that grew crazier, as if it wanted to devour her.
“What about Odin? Was he with other women, leaving you alone here?”
Beatrice was stunned, finding it hard to believe that such childish words could come out of the renowned Mr. Caden’s mouth.
It seemed like children who couldn’t get toys when they were young would start hurting each other. She came to her senses and said, “I believed him.”
“Why can he? I can’t…”
“Mr. Caden! Have you gone mad?” Beatrice’s words served as a curse, reminding him, “You are getting married soon, and nothing can change that.”
