When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 253 Being Kept By a Mysterious Man?

Beatrice returned to the yard and dozed off against the sofa for a while..

Close to lunchtime, Monica called her and asked her to go for a meal.

Walking out of the yard, not far away,

she saw Ryan hurriedly walking towards the artificial mountain.

She was about to call out to him, but she noticed that there was another person following behind him.

Angie.

From the previous conversation between the two, Beatrice had a feeling that these two individuals seemed to know each other.

She approached the rockery quietly and happened to see Angie reaching out and grabbing Ryan’s arm.

She sarcastically said, “Back then, you broke up with me for a woman like this?”

As soon as she thought about this matter, Beatrice’s heart tightened.

Because they both got into trouble, it also had something to do with her.

“If you hadn’t separated from me back then, after Bruce’s death, with your abilities, wouldn’t the Baldwin family be under your control? Why pretend to be ignorant and clueless here?”
