To Ashes `260

Chapter 260 You Are Really Understanding

Beatrice bumped into Caden's shoulder.

Although the bar was dimly lit, she could still feel the man's gaze fixed on her.

What rolled in the calm ink-black pupils, in the end, was just

"What are you afraid of?"

The man's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of restraint and self-control.

of the Adam's apple.

Beatrice lowered her gaze for a moment, then looked directly at him and said, "Don't younger generations see their elders like this?" Caden fixed his sharp gaze on her, not missing even the slightest change on her face, his intense stare leaving her breathless. But Beatrice just looked at him in confusion, without any ripples.

He let out a cold

breath from his throat, as if mocking

himself, mixed with other emotions.

But he still didn't let go of her, expressionless, he said, "I helped you, shouldn't you help me too? Hm?" Beatrice glanced at the woman beside him and nodded in understanding. "No problem, Uncle Caden."

She answered decisively, as if she would help any man who made such a request.

Caden's eyes darkened as he tightly grasped her wrist.

Beatrice hissed and whispered,

"So proactive?"

whispered, "Uncle Caden, please loosen up a bit, otherwise how can I help you?"

"I don't like owing favors, once we repay it, we'll be even," Beatrice said calmly.

"Two clearings? Very well."

The man, inexplicably filled with anger, forcefully pulled Beatrice into his arms, his palm pressing directly against her waist.

His eyes drooped, his brows were deep, but the corners of his eyes revealed a distant coldness.

"Don't bother so much, this will do. If you..."

"Okay."

Beatrice did not struggle, she even looked defiantly at the woman on the other side.

The woman's chest heaved with anger, but she dared not provoke Caden.

Caden's face, however, did not relax due to

Because... only when you don't care, it doesn't matter.

Beatrice's obedience, but instead became even more unpleasant.

Originally, I intended to use my beauty to win over Caden's clients. However, upon noticing Caden's expression, I was so frightened that I hastily ended the social engagement. "Mr. Caden, I will have the contract sent over tomorrow. I apologize for today, I didn't know you had someone with you."

"Um."

Caden responded coldly.

When she saw that everyone had left, Beatrice immediately stood up.

"Now that the matter has been resolved, I will also leave."

"I took you back home."

Caden also stood up.

Beatrice lowered her gaze and buttoned up her coat, her voice faintly saying, "No need, I'll just go downstairs and take a taxi." "Let's go."

Caden exuded a cold aura, allowing no room for others to argue.

Beatrice didn't argue anymore and followed him as he left.

Walking into the elevator, Brend asked, "Beatrice, what are you doing here?"

Beatrice raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Soder and I came here for dinner. He said the scenery here is beautiful and wanted to bring me to see it." 11:17
