When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 234 Listen to My Arrangements

The sudden kiss startled Beatrice, and she forgot to resist.

It was not until the man approached that she fully regained her senses, disregarding the dishwashing foam on her hands and raising her hand to wave him away. But what’s infuriating is that Caden always manages to be one step ahead of her. Before her hand. could even strike, his five fingers clasp and press her down from behind.

She had to straighten her body, getting closer to his chest.

Her gaze

lifted up and collided with the man’s eyes.

His eyelids drooped slightly, his gaze was deep and hoarse, and his lips were fierce yet filled with longing,

Beatrice angrily withdrew her hand, forcefully prying his hand apart, and creating distance between the two of them.

Her nose felt sour, she took a deep breath, and then suppressed the sourness in her throat.

“Why were you always so carefree?”

“Who exactly is the one who does as they please? After provoking me, do they want to provoke others?”

Caden coldly turned the wrench, his face exuding restrained indifference and gloom. Beatrice couldn’t argue with him and her voice sounded bitter, ‘Say whatever you want.”

His breath fell right by her ear, slightly disheveled, but growing increasingly scorching. She lowered her gaze and reminded, ‘Uncle Caden, you are getting engaged in a few days.”

Caden didn’t continue anymore, he raised his hand and pinched her chin, turning her face. Four pairs of eyes locked, the man’s lips curved with a hint of cold mockery.

“So what? Your presence wouldn’t change anything.”

Beatrice’s face was pale to the point of transparency, her hands were dry and rough from the dried–out dish soap in them.

She made an effort to purse her lips and looked at him before finally asking the question, “Why did you go to Norway to save me? And why did you enter the mine to save me back then? Could it be that you saved me…”

Did you save me just to put me in this embarrassing position now?

She couldn’t bring herself to say these words.

Caden squinted his eyes, leaned back against the kitchen island, and silently lit a cigarette
