When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 198 You're Not Even As Good As Selina Beatrice walked out of the lounge with a heavy heart.

Just as I looked up, I heard Ryan scolding Caden unhappily.

"Caden, you were too reckless! Dad cares so much about his reputation, and you were publicly humiliating him, weren't you?"

"For the sake of the family's future, sacrificing a little bit of dignity, he will understand," Caden said expressionlessly.

"You... So you don't care about your own reputation either?"

Ryan was much older than Caden, like an older brother who acted like a father, his tone inevitably a bit heavy.

Beatrice stood by, her gaze fixed on the tip of her shoes.

She seemed like an outsider, but her ears quietly waited for the man's response.

She also didn't understand why Caden made such a big fuss.

The man's voice remained consistently indifferent: "I was the same."

Beatrice instantly sank, it turned out that she didn't care about anyone, only the interests of her family came first.

Not at all surprised, but her mind went blank for a moment.

Even Ryan took a deep breath.

No wonder Caden would secure the highest position, he was so ruthless and indifferent to himself, who else could compare to him?

He saw blood oozing from Caden's forehead and quickly said, "You go to the hospital first, I'll be fine here."

"Um."

Caden turned around and left.

Beatrice lowered her head and stepped back to make way for him, but her wrist was grabbed by the man and he pulled her away.

She looked up in surprise, gazing at the figure in front of her, and struggled to say, "Uncle Caden, what are you doing? Ryan and my mom..."

"They left," Caden pointed behind her.

Beatrice only just realized that Ryan and Monica had quietly slipped away.

She pursed her lips and said, "I went to help my mom greet the guests."

Just as she turned around, her body was pulled back, and the man trapped her from behind. He whispered in her ear, "Do you want to stay at my wedding like this?" The overpowering scent of the men surrounding her invaded Beatrice's nostrils, and the painful sensation of her body being crushed came rushing back.

"Wasn't it Uncle Caden's intention for me to be a good bridesmaid?"

She was somewhat annoyed as she tried to pull his arm, but he tightly held onto her fingers.
