Chapter 136 You're Just Going To Use Me And Then Run Away? Inside the towel was actually a room card!

Selina took a deep breath, but no matter how she breathed, she couldn't restrain the craziness of jealousy in her heart.
Why did all men seem enchanted when they saw Beatrice?
Even a man like Caden wanted to have Beatrice.
Why!
Beatrice held the room key and lamented, "Mr. Caden seems to know about my predicament. Keith said to go to his room and he would help me solve it. What do you think I should choose? It seems like everyone would choose Mr. Caden, right?" "Of course, Mr. Powell was chosen!"
You are only worthy of someone like Mr. Powell, you bitch!
Selina's voice was sharp, like a punctured balloon, piercing and unpleasant to hear.
Beatrice pretended not to understand her tone and asked, "Selina, why can I only choose Mr. Powell?"
Selina froze for a few seconds and then resumed her PUA.
"Beatrice, I'm doing this for your own good too. You need to understand that Mr. Powell is our client, and if
you can't appease him, what if he starts spreading rumors privately? It would be detrimental to your future work."
"Moreover, Mr. Caden definitely didn't like you. He loved Ms. Bradford. Don't you dare do something that would ruin their relationship."
Beatrice stared at her and reminded her, "Selina, Mr. Powell got married, and his son was even older than me."
Selina smiled and said, "That's good. Even if Mrs. Powell finds out, she wouldn't divorce Mr. Powell for the sake of their child."

Beatrice really wanted to roll her eyes.
While she wa
While she was not speaking, Selina reached out to grab the room key from her hand.
"I threw away this room card for
you."
Beatrice avoided her hand and stuffed the room card into her bag.
"Selina, didn't you say that we couldn't compete with the wealthy? Mr. Caden is even more powerful than Mr. Powell, a prominent family. How can I afford to offend him? I'll think about it again. I'll go to the restroom first and fix my dress." Behind her, Selina's eyes were filled with fire, as if she wanted to burn a hole in Beatrice's bag.
She thought for a moment and immediately put on a concerned expression, moving closer to Beatrice. "Beatrice, it's not convenient for you to carry the bag and wipe your skirt. Let me hold it for you." "Okay, thank you."

Beatrice handed her the bag and turned her back to her, dipped the towel in water, and bent/ down to wipe her skirt.
As she wiped, Beatrice whispered as if chatting, "Actually, I'm very afraid of Mr. Caden. He doesn't like women who talk too much, and I'm afraid I'll say something wrong if I get too nervous."
"Uh-huh."
Selina randomly responded with two sentences.
Beatrice rubbed her skirt clean and blew it with a hairdryer for a few times before turning around, without any noticeable marks.
Selina immediately handed over the package. "Beatrice, here you go. Let's hurry to the banquet hall."
"Okay."
Beatrice took the bag and Selina entered the banquet hall.
The Powell family held a grand banquet this time, not only was the hall magnificent, but they even built a champagne tower
a champagne tower in the center that required a ladder to reach.

Every cup was an imported crystal cup with five digits.
In order to create a vibrant atmosphere, the surrounding flowers were all imported by air from abroad, and even more than a dozen floral artists were hired to maintain them on site.
Once the flowers showed signs of withering or damage, they would be immediately replaced.
Not to mention how expensive the delicacies on the dining table were
Beatrice walked quickly to Alicia's side, and the two of them exchanged a glance without saying a word.
After taking a seat, a gaze fixed on her, causing goosebumps to rise on her spine.
She looked over and collided with Caden's deep eyes, and the air stood still for a moment.
Under the light, his gaze was cold and unclear, until Keith whispered something in his ear, adding a touch of playfulness to his eyes.
Beatrice's heart grew cold, and she immediately averted her gaze from him.
He wouldn't know, right?
I don't think so.
Just as I was thinking, Devin's voice rang out in the middle of the hall. "Thank you all for coming to the celebration dinner of the Powell Group. I believe that our group will be even more brilliant in the future." Everyone looked up and saw Devin standing on the ladder, looking down at them. At this moment, everyone only realized the true significance of this champagne tower.
This is not welcoming guests, it is clearly showing off.
Most of the guests present were people from the business world, keeping their composure as they quietly watched Devin burst into laughter.
And under the ladder stood Oscar, the strategist behind the Powell Group.

Oscar looked around, his eyes no longer gentle but filled with the ambition of a businessman.
Perhaps this was his true face.
A businessman who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
Through the crowd, Oscar suddenly looked at Beatrice.
Beatrice averted her gaze, unwilling to look at him any longer.
After the champagne tower was filled, everyone raised their glasses.
After Devin had drunk two glasses of wine, he said he would go to the restroom.
As I was leaving, I took a deliberate look at Beatrice.
At this moment, the rest of the Powell family was immersed in joy, so they did not notice anything unusual.
At that moment, Selina tugged at Beatrice's arm.
"Beatrice, Mr. Powell has left. Do you want to go and talk to him alone?" she hinted. Beatrice withdrew her hand and looked towards Caden, saying lightly,"Wait a little longer." Selina glanced over and spotted Caden's figure, causing her fists to clench involuntarily. It seems that Beatrice was still wavering.
At that moment, Caden got up and left the banquet hall.
Beatrice made a move to stand up, but Selina quickly blocked her and then stood
"Beatrice, think about it again, I'll go to the restroom."
"Hmm," Beatrice sighed, resting her chin on her hand in distress.
up herself.
Selina rushed out quickly, not knowing that others might have thought she had something urgent to attend to.
Beatrice stared at the disappearing figure, tightly gripping her wine glass, and tilted her head back to drink the entire glass of champagne.
When I put down the wine glass, there appeared a graceful white figure beside me.
It was Madelynn.
She was wearing a high-necked long-sleeved velvet dress, with a lace white diamond necklace around her neck, very low-key. Knowing her for so long, this is the first time Beatrice has seen her dressed so warmly. It seems that the body did not recover well. Otherwise, given her personality, no matter whose party it was today, she had to be the center of
attention.
Madelynn shook the glass of wine in her hand and laughed, "Drinking so quickly? Nerves?" Beatrice pursed her lips and said, "It has nothing to do with you."
After saying that, she turned around and left the banquet hall.
Madelynn chuckled and remained defiant even in the face of death.

Beatrice walked into the elevator, took a deep breath, and pressed the floor button. As the elevator doors slowly closed, a slender, pure white hand held onto the door. Beatrice was momentarily stunned, but when she snapped back to reality, the man had already strolled into the elevator and casually pressed the top floor button.
The elevator doors closed again, and Beatrice watched as the looming figure approached. She took two steps back, but eventually had nowhere else to go, and her body leaned against the glass of the observation elevator.
As the elevator went up, a golden light spilled into the sightseeing elevator, instantly making the man's body, which had originally been standing in the shadows, shine dazzlingly. His pitch-black pupils seemed to be coated with a golden halo under the sunlight, shrinking slightly as they suddenly approached Beatrice's face.
She was almost face to face with him, their noses almost touching.noveldrama
She instinctively held her breath and swallowed her saliva.
"You used me and then ran away?"
It was Caden.
