Chapter 6 Not Over Yet

Beatrice tried to recall what she had said the night before.

A second later, Beatrice realized she had said a lot indeed.

for she could yielded,

In the heat of intense emotions, Beatrice endured Caden's almost torturous teasing and earnestly confided her feelings.

Beatrice believed Caden would not remember anything the next day.

However, Beatrice would remember everything, including, at least, how close they were at that

moment.

"Mr. Caden, I have feelings for you.

"I have loved you for a long time. Since the day I came into the Baldwin family and you helped me out, I have been secretly paying attention to you.

"I know you don't care about me, but I really...

"I really love you."

Beatrice had come into the Baldwin family at the age of sixteen, and she had been dressed up by Monica to look like a doll about to be presented as a tribute.

Knowing nothing about the simplest mode of dress of a lady, Monica had only wanted her daughter Beatrice to come into the Baldwin family in all her beauty and grace. However, Beatrice had become a laughingstock for for the entire Baldwin family.

Someone had viewed Beatrice as a maid trying to be a queen.

In her timidity and fear of trouble, Monica had not dared to defend Beatrice.

Luckily, Caden had appeared at that time.

With a tall figure, dressed in a long black coat, Caden had been standing on the porch, flicking the cigarette in his hand. White smoke had escaped from his mouth, enveloping his face, with snowflakes falling gently behind him. With a dangerous and cold look, Caden still looked dashing.

Because of Caden's glance, all the servants had got so frightened that they had not dared to speak any word.

Caden had graduated from university at the age of 23 that year, but he had made his name as the one and only Mr. Caden in Chicago.

At a glimpse at Beatrice, Caden had said heavily, "Not bad."

However, those words had been so impressive to Beatrice.

$ In addition, Beatrice could even remember the scent that had lingered on Caden's body that day

in the Baldwin's place.

Later, Caden and Beatrice had encountered each other again.

Beatrice had been so depressed by the decline in her academic performance in class that she had been tempted to cry in the garden in the spring. 4.6%

Ara glance at the test, Caden had been smoking a cigarette, leaning against the pavilion."Not so hard. Pass me the pen."

Beatrice had got a cramp in her leg when learning to swim in a swimming pool in the summer. Caden had jumped into the swimming pool and saved Beatrice, scolding her for being clumsy. Beatrice had been harassed by someone and couldn't outrun them on the street in the autumn. Caden had got out of the car and put his arm around Beatrice's shoulder, running away together.
