Chapter 213 My Patience Has Its Limits

Beatrice and Monica were on their way to the front hall when they noticed the butler hurrying towards the ancestral hall with the Baldwin family elders. to the ancestral hall?" Beatrice
"Mom, why are we going
asked curiously. Monica looked around, her expression tense: "Oh no, something big is definitely going to happen."
She worried about Ryan and pulled Beatrice towards the temple.
As soon as I entered the temple, it was crowded with people.
The crowd stood on both sides in an orderly manner, and Beatrice quickly pulled Monica to stand at the inconspicuous end.noveldrama
She looked up and saw that those long-lost elders had been invited inside.
Caden and Xander sat in the front row, with incense burning by their side, solemn and serious.
In the hall, Oscar knelt down, gritting his teeth.
Beside, Jessie's face turned pale, crying and making a scene, long gone was the supposed elegance of Mrs. Jessie Baldwin. "Ryan! What do you mean? Oscar got hurt because of your cheap daughter. Why do you think you can bring him back?" Ryan looked at her coldly and said, "Why did he get hurt? Do I need to repeat it in public?"
"You!" Jessie's chest heaved violently as she forcefully argued, "The Baldwin family had been raising Beatrice for so many years, what's wrong with asking her to contribute? It's not like it's her first time, so why make such a fuss about it!"
As the words fell, Ryan clenched his fist, but the household rule was not to hit women
Beatrice was about to retort when Monica suddenly rushed out and slapped Jessie twice, knocking her to the ground.
Jessie groaned and struggled to get up for a while, relying on Oscar who was silent with his head down. Monica was also a woman who used to carry a baby in one hand and ten kilograms of rice in the other.
In recent years, although she has been spoiled, dealing with Jessie, this sickly child, was not a problem.
"Shut up! Your own son is not capable, so you use someone else's daughter as a substitute. I heard that foreigners don't care about age, why didn't he offer you up! Turns out he's picking on someone who is weak!"
Monica stood with her hands on her hips, looking at everyone, and said firmly, "I know you all look down on me! I have been meek and submissive for so many years, just for the sake of everyone getting along peacefully. Since it has come to this, I will just leave, and no one should dare to bring up my daughter again!"
"Outrageous!" Xander slammed the table and stood up. "Do you have the right to speak here? Drag her out for me!"
Monica was startled and her neck shrunk a little, only then did she realize that she had acted

Beatrice quickly rushed out and stood in front of Monica, saying, "Don't touch my mom!"
"It's you again!" Xander glared angrily at Beatrice and waved his hand, ordering, "Get them, the mother and daughter, out of here!" The result was a silent room, with no one listening to Xander at all.
At that moment, Caden set down the teacup.
With a neither light nor heavy thud, everyone turned their heads to look at him, which was enough to show his current status. "Dad, calm down a bit."
Xander squinted his eyes, his expression turning cold as he sat down. Seemingly casually, he picked up his teacup and sarcastically remarked, "I don't see why there's anything to question about this matter. If Oscar is capable of doing such a thing, does that mean Beatrice is innocent? If she hadn't been involved in shady dealings, would Oscar have taken her away?"
Beatrice sneered in her heart, her face expressionless as she said, "Sir Baldwin, I couldn't bear such a great accusation. If the Baldwin family's people could control me with just a snap of their fingers, then the Baldwin family is nothing special." Xander listened with wide, angry eyes, and forcefully placed the teacup back on the table.
Without waiting for him to speak, Ryan protected Beatrice and spoke first.
"Dad, Beatrice didn't say it wrong, the Baldwin family has always been strict, and not just anyone can do whatever they want."
""What do you
mean?" Sir Baldwin's voice was clearly suppressed with anger
"Who gave Oscar the right to use a private plane to leave?" Ryan asked heavily
Everyone knows that private planes are not accessible to everyone.
But Caden couldn't ask this question.
But he was Beatrice's stepfather legally, and had the right to find out the ins and outs.
Xander was seventy-five years old this year, and the most important things in his life were his dignity and the honor of his family.
He was conservative and extremely chauvinistic.
Seeing his usually honest son questioning him like this, he felt utterly embarrassed.
He grabbed the cup and threw it on the ground, shattering it into pieces, leaving everyone
breathless.
"Did you go against the heavens? How dare you speak to me in such a tone!"
Ryan, unlike in the past, met his father's gaze and calmly asked, "Dad, are you saying that you have no fault in Oscar turning out this way?"

breathed heavily, his lips tightly pursed and his teeth clenched.
Oscar, who had been keeping his head down all along, seemed to have heard something and immediately raised his gaze to look at Ryan. 11:22

"What do you mean by that, Uncle Er?"

Ryan's lips curled with a faint bitterness, "Let others tell you the reason."
After speaking, he lifted his gaze and looked towards the entrance of the ancestral hall. Three figures approached slowly.
Oscar looked at the leader and immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
Even others were startled.
Beatrice recognized it carefully and then remembered seeing it in the family photo in the study.
Oscar's deceased father was Bruce Baldwin.
The man in front of me had gray hair at his temples, and there were clear lines around his eyes and forehead.
Ryan, who is only two years younger, cannot be compared at all.
But his laughter lines were very infectious, warm and kind.
"Dad, you didn't die?" Oscar trembled and shouted.
Bruce looked at him and nodded slightly, feeling a bit helpless. "Hmm."
Oscar seemed to see hope and got up, grabbing Bruce and pointing at Caden. "Dad, quickly tell everyone, did Caden kill you?"
"Who told you that? My affairs have nothing to do with Caden!" Bruce retorted displeased.
"No, it's not possible!" Oscar retreated in a daze.
Before Oscar could react, Xander suddenly stood up and looked the person up and down
"Bruce, how did you become like this?"
"Dad, I'm sorry, but I was doing well." Bruce pointed to the two people behind him and smiled gently, "This is my wife and daughter."
Just now, the ancestral hall still had a hint of warmth, but at this moment, because of this sentence, it suddenly fell into a state of stagnation.
Beatrice was also taken aback for a moment, then turned her head to look at those two people. The woman's facial features were not stunning, but her eyes were bright and clear, giving off a very bright and generous feeling. She had shoulder-length short hair and her tanned skin emitted a healthy glow.
The girl beside her, who appeared to be around eleven or twelve years old, combined the strengths of the couple and was also a person with a sweet and sunny smile.
It was unclear whether it was Beatrice's illusion or not, but they were clearly different from the glamorous people in the temple. However, the moment they approached, the cold atmosphere around them dissipated significantly.
As the only ordinary person present, Beatrice could tell at a glance that the mother and daughter were very easygoing people.
However, a
stern voice came from the audience, shattering the momentary silence. "I won't allow it! A woman who becomes a mistress is clearly not from a respectable family." Xander completely denies, ordering, "Send them away immediately, the farther the better. When 11:22
