Chapter 416
Beatrice felt awkward, she wanted to move but couldn’t.
The room returned to tranquility, with only the faint sound of the sheets being moved, revealing a hint of ambiguity. A moment later, Beatrice clenched the blanket tightly and said, “It was Madelynn.”
“Stop talking, take a break.” Caden’s voice suddenly turned cold.
Beatrice’s body grew cold again.
He saw the miserable state she was in just now, and up until this moment, he was actually still protecting Madelynn. Beatrice breathed heavily, her throat ached, her nasal passages hurt, and even her lungs felt trembling with pain.
She gritted her teeth and pulled the blanket off him, wrapping it around herself.
“I would call the police. Unless you killed me, no one can stop me.”
Meng
Timothy had just been promoted, and his position was not stable. Many people were jealous, but she didn’t believe that the entire police station was filled with people from the Melendez family.
Even if it was destined to fail, she still wanted to stir up the pool water.
“Killed you?”
The cold melody accompanied the man’s breath as it brushed against Beatrice’s ear, carrying a sense of dangerous oppression.
Without waiting for her reaction, the hand that was holding her waist moved up and slipped under her clothes, pressing against her skin.
The scorching palm was wrapped in gauze, giving an indescribable rough sensation, and then it rubbed along the waistline.
Beatrice took a breath and held onto his arm.
His breath, close to her ear, was a hot gust that sprayed onto her neck, causing her to tremble with unease as the blood from his arteries spread throughout her body.
He chuckled, “Not afraid of death, but afraid of this?”
Upon hearing this, Beatrice became extremely angry.
“You deliberately…”
She suddenly turned her head and collided with his nose, leaving her stunned.
Obviously, Caden didn’t expect her to suddenly turn around. In silence, a slight change in his expression revealed a coldness.
His deep gaze locked onto her, growing deeper and deeper.
He slowly raised his hand and gently brushed her cheek with his warm fingertips, leaning his face towards hers.
Beatrice’s hand hurt a little after getting the injection, and she furrowed her brows.
He raised his gaze, his eyes remained as calm as ever, but his voice was a little hoarse:“Go to sleep.”
Not knowing if it was the effect of the medication, she couldn’t muster any energy to argue with him and fell asleep, drowsily leaning against his chest.
But she always felt that something was wrong.
He seemed to not have threatened her from calling the police.
When Beatrice woke up again, Caden was already gone.
The room was very quiet, and the warmth inside the blanket was especially comfortable.
She lifted the blanket with some confusion and found a hot water bottle placed under her hand, which she had just hung water on.
