When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 11 In Danger

Sensing a gaze on her, Beatrice turned her head and looked over.

It was Caden.

Caden dressed in a solemn black suit, his slender fingers rested on his forehead, and his blood-red thumb ring exuded a chilling bloodthirstiness. under the sunlight. Besides him was Madelynn.

Madelynn seemed to be saying something to Caden, and the two of them looked very close. There was even a gentle and tender expression on his face.

Beatrice averted her gaze and calmly put down her hand.

Thank you," she said to the man who had just helped her.

"No thanks." Then, the man looked over casually."Is that Mr. Caden? He really dotes on his fiancée. He even personally came to pick her up from school." Exactly.

Everyone could see Caden's favoritism towards Madelynn.

But in Beatrice's past life, she was like a fool, loving him and waiting for him to come back to her. Just as Beatrice was just about to nod and echo, Monica pulled her.

She said to Beatrice, "Since you've run into Caden, go and say hello to him." "No way." Beatrice shook off Monica's hand and turned to leave.

"Hey, you..."

Monica's words were interrupted by the sudden voice of Madelynn.

"Mrs. Baldwin, Beatrice, what a coincidence. And this is..."

While speaking, Madelynn held Caden's arm and looked at the man beside Beatrice. Monica always felt that Madelynn was a schemer. And after what happened at the Baldwin's mansion that night, she became even more convinced that Madelynn was not some kind person. After thinking so, Monica walked up to the man and said with a hint of pride, "He's Abdiel Jimenez, the

young master of the Jimenez family. He's both talented and handsome. We're both very satisfied with him."

The word "we" in her sentence carried a deep meaning.

Beatrice wanted to stop Monica, but it was too late already. After Monica's voice fell, Caden's eyes instantly darkened. Abdiel stepped up and greeted, "Mr. Caden."

But Caden ignored him, his gaze casually falling on Beatrice, and a faint mockery appeared at the corner of his lips. "We?"

Then, he cast a glance at Abdiel, saying meaningfully, "Truly a talented and handsome man." Beatrice's back stiffened, and her palms were covered in cold sweat.

Although it was just a casual remark of Caden's, it caused her to feel danger and suffocated.

She thought, "Abdiel? In front of Caden, he's just a nobody.
