Chapter 177 The Vip Is Him
On the other side.
Alicia stood in front with Mr. Duarte, waiting for the VIPs. During that time, she checked her phone three times, but still couldn't reach Beatrice.
Mr. Duarte asked, "Ms. Moreno, where is Beatrice? Didn't we agree to meet up?"
Alicia awkwardly smiled and said, "She..."
Suddenly, Madelynn walked over and stood beside Mr. Duarte, lost in her own thoughts.
"Beatrice said she wasn't feeling well and might not come."
Mr. Duarte frowned, said nothing, and tacitly accepted Madelynn standing by his side.
But being stood up by a newcomer, surely felt uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Madelynn curled her lips.
Just as she was feeling proud, Beatrice's voice came from behind her.
"Who said I didn't come?"
Hearing the sound, the crowd made way, and Beatrice, wearing a red high-slit gown, appeared like a blazing flame, searing into the eyes of the onlookers. fair as 35

The shimmering fabric accentuated her skin, making it The unique use of large mesh hard gauze, embellished with a few broken diamonds.
A pair of eyes emerged, captivating to the extreme.
Looking at the newcomer, Madelynn's mouth twitched a few times.
Beatrice, however, smiled at her and said, "Ms. Bradford, you must have misunderstood. I said I would come right away."
Immediately, she pushed Madelynn aside and turned to
look at Mr. Duarte.
"I heard that Mr. Duarte is a local here, so I specifically had a custom-made suit prepared with the unique fabric from this place. It should make a more representative impression when meeting guests." good heart," Mr. Duarte nodded approvingly.
"Ms. Lindsey, you have a good
'Should be."
Just as the words fell, a luxury car stopped at the door.
Looking at the familiar doorman, Beatrice had a sense of foreboding.
As the figure stepped out of the car door, a handsome and dazzling face came into view.
Caden.
He stood still, silent and speechless, yet seemed to have an invisible force that attracted everyone's
attention.
When walking against the light, a pair of ink-black eyes were deep and unfathomable, excessively eye-catching, yet also exuding a sense of distance. "Mr. Caden, you came."

Madelynn slowly approached, holding onto the man, with a sweet expression on her face, every word and action telling everyone that Caden came for her. Caden nodded and exchanged a few words with Mr. Duarte.
Mr. Duarte pointed to Beatrice beside him and said, "This is Ms. Lindsey, a young and promising individual who specifically changed into our locally famous dyed fabric to meet you."
Mr. Duarte was unaware of the connection between Beatrice and Caden, considering them as mere introductions.
Caden raised his gaze and stared at Beatrice, his deep eyes flickering slightly. "Intentionally?
Hmm."
Beatrice clenched her fist in his gaze..
If I had known that Caden was coming earlier, why did she bother?
Just give it to Madelynn.
Mr. Duarte greeted everyone to come in, while Alicia stood beside Beatrice, trying to hold back her laughter.
"Ms. Moreno, why are you smiling?" Beatrice pursed her lips.

"Ah? Well... interesting. Hurry up and catch up, show
Beatrice gritted her teeth and kept up with Mr. Duarte and Caden.
By the way, there was also Madelynn.
She clung to Caden like a leech, occasionally glancing at Beatrice.
Fortunately, Beatrice still had professional competence.
best. Alicia urged.
In addition, she had done sufficient preparation work and could speak confidently about all the works, also having her own insights. Mr. Duarte nodded approvingly.
Madelynn wanted to perform, but she was not prepared at all.
After interrupting twice and mispronouncing the designer's name, Mr. Duarte chose to ignore her directly.
She felt extremely embarrassed, and could only hold onto Caden even more intimately, afraid that others wouldn't notice her.
When we were almost done with the visit, a gust of cool wind blew in through the loosely closed window.
Beatrice immediately trembled all over and then coughed twice.
Her previous physical condition was not actually so delicate.
But since she was reborn, she would frequently fall ill, and now the medicine cabinet at home is almost full.
In Brend's words, most people of her age had a high level of energy, around eight or nine out of
ten.
She only had half.
He even reminded her to use it sparingly..

Perhaps this is the cost of rebirth.
Beatrice snapped back to reality, pretending to remain calm and wanting to continue. The man beside him, however, raised his hand and gestured, "Go and have a look ahead." Mr. Duarte exclaimed, "Mr. Caden has a good eye, please take a look at the rare gemstone roughs ahead." Caden nodded and walked past Beatrice.
Suddenly, Beatrice's palm grew hot, causing her to stand frozen in place in fear. She only opened her palms after the others had walked.
It was a palm-sized hand warmer, pink in color.
How could Caden have something like this?
"Beatrice," Mr. Duarte called out ahead.
"He came."
past.
Beatrice tightened her hand warmer and hurriedly followed.
The original stone exhibition hall was very dark, with only small lights on the display cabinets, and only shadows could be seen around.
Beatrice stood by the side, applauding Mr. Duarte's speech at any moment. Amidst the bustling crowd, a clear and lively atmosphere was carried along. The breaths in my ears also grew warmer.
As soon as she moved, her hand was gripped in someone's palm.
"Why is it still so cold?"
The deliberately lowered voice sounded only by her ear, and she stiffened for a moment, trying to push away the man beside her, but he immediately encircled her.
Beatrice couldn't move and whispered, "Uncle Caden, are you crazy? There are people. everywhere."
Caden slowly caressed her hand, as if he hadn't heard.
Beatrice is not cold at all now, her whole body is tense and restless due to nervousness.noveldrama
I always felt like someone would see them hugging together in the next second.
As Mr. Duarte was about to lead everyone to another display case, Beatrice's breathing became. rapid.
Without thinking, she lifted her foot and stepped on Caden's shoe with her high heels, a few words escaping through clenched teeth.
"Uncle Caden, let go."
"I have regained strength, it seems that it is not cold anymore."
His voice had a dangerous mockery.
Beatrice's ears turned red, fortunately the lights were dim, so he couldn't see. When everyone turned around, Caden let go of her and stuffed a hand warmer into her hand. A deep and unfathomable gaze lightly swept over her ears, and a faint, almost imperceptible < Chapter 177 The Vip is Him
smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Walking out of the exhibition hall, Madelynn suddenly exclaimed.
""Who are you?"
"Ms. Bradford, it was you who stuck it on me. The chubby man chuckled. Madelynn returned to Caden's side with a pale face.
The jewelry exhibition ended.
Beatrice met many designers through Alicia's introduction.
As she was leaving, she went to the restroom and when she came out, she saw the older sister. who had just helped her sew her clothes running hurriedly towards the outside.
"What are you doing? You are killing someone! Release my son!"
Murder?
Julio had an accident!
Beatrice originally wanted to say thank you, but upon hearing these words, she quickly followed along.
The eldest sister ran out from the back door and followed a small path into the small village.
Beatrice shouted twice, but her older sister didn't hear at all.
When she caught up, she heard a thud, followed by the loud cry of her older sister.
"Help! Help! Julio!"
Beatrice looked over and saw two men in black clothes clapping their hands and leaving the shore.
The one struggling in the river was the eldest sister's son.
"Mom... Mom..."
Upon hearing Julio's voice, Beatrice thought of her daughter.
Not being able to save her daughter has always been her regret, so she couldn't just stand by and watch other children die.
Beatrice struggled to kick off her high heels, took off her veil, and jumped directly into the water.
