Chapter 137 The Taste Experienced

Caden's breath fell along with his words, warming Beatrice's cheeks.

She turned her head away with a guilty conscience.

Sure enough, he knew everything.

Mer

Beatrice cautiously took a step to the side, trying to avoid his breath, but as she turned, there was an extra arm in front of her.

She could only stand still in her place obediently, as the floor she was about to go to was approaching quickly.

But Caden seemed to see through her thoughts, leaning forward and breathing hotly onto her face.

She could even feel his scorching breath flowing beneath her nose.

Her breath, her body, were all surrounded by his breath, making her back sweat.

Lost in thought, he raised his hand and ran it through the strands of hair falling on her cheek, cradling her face.

"Hmm?" Caden inquired with a low tone.

"... ..."

Beatrice didn't know what to say for a moment.

Beatrice suddenly looked up, he actually knew even the room card!

Although his voice was calm, she felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, even her breathing became rapid. said, "Is it chaotic?"

""Did not..."

Beatrice was about to deny it when he turned his head and stared at her, leaning in and their lips touched.

Ding! The elevator arrived.

Beatrice thought she was saved

and pushed the person in front of her.

Little did he know, he simply raised an eyebrow and lifted her up, turned around, and closed the elevator door. "You!"

Beatrice felt that she was still too inexperienced to deal with Caden, it was like a lamb walking into a tiger's den.

She looked at her legs stuck to his waist and angrily pounded his shoulders.

It was not the season when flowers bloomed, but there was a floral fragrance in the cold wind. /

Beatrice's body shrank for a moment, and she caught a glimpse of the blooming flowers in the sky garden.

She hesitated for a moment, and Caden let go of her, pulling her into the garden as she was still dazed.

The reclining semi-enclosed seats made people feel as if they were lying in a sea of flowers.

"Take a seat, downstairs looks like some kind of pyramid scheme."

"Um."

Beatrice wanted to laugh, but she felt that she needed to be serious, so she restrained herself and sat down.

She did need some time to make the matter bigger,

In a short while, the waiter brought a small hotpot and some desserts.

After the tea was brewed, Caden poured a cup of tea for Beatrice.

"Have a cup of tea to relieve the alcohol, there's no rush for anything else at the moment."

"Uncle Caden, how did you know that I had been drinking?" Beatrice looked at Caden in astonishment.

Caden paused, raising his cup, and looked at her meaningfully.

"Tasted."

Upon hearing the words, Beatrice's cheeks instantly turned red, even though she was sitting outdoors, she felt so hot that she wanted to take off her coat. She quickly took a big sip of tea and then stuck out her tongue.

""Hot, hot..."

When she covered her mouth, the person opposite her moved in front of her and seemed to sigh while pinching her chin. ""Open your

mouth."

"No need," Beatrice said, pursing her lips and shaking her head.

Caden didn't give her a chance to resist at all. He pressed her chin and made her lips slightly part.

With a glance, the two of them looked at each other very closely.

The surrounding wind ceased, everything became quiet, his eyes were deep like ink, as if they couldn't see the bottom. Her fingertips curled, and she unconsciously licked her lips.

Seeing this, the man's eyes deepened, his gaze becoming mysterious, as he slowly approached Beatrice's lips. There were two waiters standing not far away, and Beatrice was trembling with fear, showing strong resistance. He stopped, his jaw tight and restrained.

"It's nothing." Caden sat up straight, facing the sunlight outside the tall building.

Oscar and Jessie greeted the guests one by one, almost completing a full circle, but they never saw Devin's figure.

At the doorstep, Mrs. Powell took a deep breath and decided to knock on the door, reciting her identity as a dignified choice.

The people inside not only did not open the door, but they also continued to fight, and the woman's uncontrollable voice was behind the door.

Mrs. Powell was furious and disregarded Jessie and Oscar's attempts to stop her. She directly ordered her family to kick the door open.
