Chapter 41 Badmouthing Being Overheard
After the waiter served the dishes, Beatrice realized that they were all her favorites. She looked at Chacar across from her, full of emotion, and said, “Big brother, I didn’t expect you to
Dear send her a bowd of pork rib soup and smiled faintly, saying, “I remember, I remember that you are actually a glutton, just afraid to eat too much at the dining table at home.” Beatrice looked at the steaming pork rib soup in front of her, feeling a bit nostalgic.
Unable to help it, she lifted her gaze and stared at the warm and considerate man in front of her.
She could no longer ignore his fate.
Having mathing, he went to a distant country and could never come back, even if Jessie wanted to ren before her death, she was rejected by others.
That person was Caden
Caden Was ruthless person, stopping at nothing to eliminate his enemies.
But in her previous life, Beatrice was just a woman controlled by Caden, and the information she knew was fragmented.
She had just heard him mention this matter outside Caden’s study.
Oscar touched his interests, so he couldn’t stay.
This was Oscar’s final outcome.
Thinking of all this, Beatrice still reminded him, “Big brother, no matter what happens in the future, don’t confront Uncle Caden. Take care of yourself and Mrs. Jessie Baldwin first.” Oscar’s hand paused mid–meal, as he gently asked, “Beatrice, do you know anything Beatrice shook her head quickly, “How could I possibly know anything? Besides, I don’t understand anything about business, I just… I think Uncle Caden seems a bit fierce, and I’m afraid you might upset him.”
She made up a sentence, afraid that Oscar would suspect her.
Oscar chuckled lightly, but his smile only lasted for three seconds.
He immediately put down the fork and stood up, humbly saying, “Uncle Caden.”
Beatrice closed her eyes and cursed in her heart.
Why does Caden always manage to run into me in such a big city like Chicago? She awkwardly stood up, lowered her head and turned around, staring at a pair of men’s leather shoes in front of her, and shouted, “Uncle Caden.”
Um.”
Caden responded with a sentence and left directly.
Beatrice felt the low pressure around her disappear and took a deep breaths. The fear

was not
easily forgotten:

Beatrice, please sit down, Uncle Caden has left.” Um Beatrice sat down.
At that moment, the phone beeped a few times.
When opened, it was the well wishes from roommates, who also mentioned treating her to a meal next time.
But the happy times didn’t last long, as
times didn’t last long, as one of the roommates shared a video. “Beatrice, Madelynn accidentally liked a fan’s comment online, saying that you were messing with the major distribution at school. Although they immediately unliked it, many people still managed to screenshot it.”
The most crucial thing is that she explained that she accidentally pressed it because she was
angry.
“Why not explain why you’re angry? Instead, you insinuate here.”
Beatrice looked at the video and instantly lost her appetite.
On her way to dinner, there were many reports online about the jewelry competition. Many of them were about her competing with Madelynn.
Apart from Madelynn’s fans, there emerged a considerable number of people supporting
Beatrice.
Immediately, the incident of accidentally liking a post happened.

Madelynn
Beatrice thought for a moment and immediately filed a complaint on the platform, requesting the removal of these false videos.
I didn’t expect that the response from the customer service of the platform did not violate any rules.
She frowned and directly approached the customer service representative. After a few rounds of negotiation, she skillfully argued with the representative, leaving them speechless.. Finally, only one sentence was left.
“You offended someone.”
This sentence was deleted after being read.
Beatrice didn’t leave any evidence either, but she already knew in her beart. Who else besides Caden had the ability to do such a thing?
He gave her design draft to Madelynn and had the competition organizers manipulate the competition results. Now he is worried that online comments will affect Madelynn. She actually used her innocence as a shield.
In her previous life,
night of spring breeze, he also sealed her lips.
She opened up a shortcut for Madelynn with her efforts.
It was like this again.
Beatrice lost her appetite, weakly put down her phone, and turned her head to look out the window, feeling breathless.

Across
from him, Oscar frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? You look so pale, Beatrice took a sip of water and paused.“It’s okay, I’m full.”
This matter had nothing to do with Oscar, she didn’t want to involve him.
Oscar looked at her and gently raised his hand, approaching her.“You’re all grown up, how come
food get you still
on your lips?”
“What?”
Without waiting for Beatrice to ask, Oscar’s hand had already landed on her cheek, gently wiping the corner of her lips.
Beatrice was taken aback, but she instinctively dodged.
“I, I came by myself.”
A cleaned it.” Oscar said.
“Thank you, big brother,” Beatrice wiped the corner of her lips and glanced down to see her dress. She continued, “Big brother, this dress is expensive, right? Can it be returned?”
Oscar paused for a moment and said, “Formal attire?”
Beatrice nodded and pointed at the dress she was wearing, saying, “It “Hello, here comes the red bean paste, please enjoy.”
is…..”
The waiter placed two bowls of red bean paste in front of the two people. The fragrant and sticky taste made their taste buds come alive.
Especially in this late autumn, being able to eat a bowl of steaming red bean soup makes the whole body feel warm.
Beatrice didn’t ask any further questions and picked up the spoon, smiling, “Big brother, have at
taste.”
“Okay.”
Oscar took a sip and stared at Beatrice’s smile for a long time without coming back to his senses.
After having dinner, Oscar said he would take Beatrice back to school. She didn’t refuse, after all, it wasn’t convenient to catch a bus dressed like that.
As she was leaving, Beatrice took one last look at the innermost spot.
Caden’s fingertips landed on the ice cube in the glass, his jade–like fingers spinning it, lost in thought, exuding a deadly allure in his laziness.
The deep upper half of the face was concealed in the shadow of the light, making it difficult to see his expression.
He felt mysterious and intimidating.
I don’t know if it was Beatrice’s illusion or not, but as he drank, she seemed to sense falling on her, rolling down his throat.

gaze
Without waiting for her reaction, Oscar had already draped the coat over her shoulders and even had the audacity to turn around and wave at Caden.
“Uncle Caden, we left first.”
Beatrice broke out in a sweat and didn’t dare to look at Caden. She quickly grabbed him and

walked away.
Just as Oscar arrived at school, his phone started ringing.
It was Jessie.
“Oscar, I wasn’t feeling well. Could you come back and take a look?”
*Oscar furrowed his brows slightly and, following Beatrice’s gesture, slowly spoke, “Okay, Mom.”
After hanging up the phone, Beatrice immediately got out of the car.
“Brother, please give my regards to Mrs. Jessie Baldwin.”
“Um, call me if there’s anything.”
After Oscar’s reminder, he drove away.
After returning to the Baldwin family,
Oscar quickly walked to the yard.
As soon as Jessie entered the living room, she leaned against the cushion and drank tea. “Mom, you’re doing it again!”
Oscar sat at the other end of the kang table, his arms hanging on the tabletop, looking somewhat displeased.
Jessie put down her teacup and sighed, “I’m just looking out for you. It’s unclear what’s going on between Caden and Beatrice right now, and your grandfather wouldn’t be happy to see you getting so close to her.”
‘Oscar retorted, “Beatrice said it’s not, so it’s not. This is over!”
Upon hearing the words, Jessie pursed her lips and her eyes turned red. In the misty aroma of tea, her complexion appeared somewhat pale.
“Beatrice said no, but what about Caden? Does he think the same way? Oscar, listen to your mother, now is not the time.”
Oscar stopped talking and just clenched
