Chapter 222 Never Choose Her

Caden's face looked very unpleasant.

He squinted his eyes with a cold air, "Beatrice."

Beatrice stared into his eyes and said, "Don't you know what Sir Baldwin did today? Did you find it amusing to see us, mother and daughter, struggling and getting no appreciation? I really don't want to play this game with you anymore, Uncle Caden. The events of that night are long gone."

Between them, they could only stay at this sound of Uncle Caden.

Caden's eyes gleamed with coldness, and he turned and walked towards the direction of the trash bin.

Beatrice looked at his back with a complex expression, unsure whether she hoped he would pick. up that bag or just let it

1. go.

But she knew that with every step he took closer, her heart grew one degree more nervous. Just as Caden was about to stop the servant, a scream came from the pathway in the garden.

Looking ahead, Bella, wearing a prosthetic limb, seemed to have tripped on a slate and fell to the ground.

Beatrice instinctively glanced at Caden.

He stopped.

Beatrice took a deep breath, her breath trembling in a heavy bitterness in her throat, weighing her down.

Actually, she already knew the outcome, but she still watched as Caden turned around and ran towards Bella, like a masochist.

And her scarf was carried onto the garbage truck along with the trash can.

Whether it was Madelynn or the present

present Bella, Caden never chose her.

After coming back to her senses, Beatrice didn't want to be too rude, so she still walked up. "Ms. Soder, are you okay?"

Bella smiled and shook her head, gracefully lifting her skirt, revealing her prosthetic leg.noveldrama

"My brother got me a new one, it's comfortable, but I haven't gotten used to it yet, sorry, is it a bit embarrassing?"

"No, the stone road here was difficult to walk on in the first place. I used to trip on it too, and it was raining at that time. I slipped and fell quite far, it was really embarrassing." Beatrice empathetically resolved her embarrassment. Bella understood and looked at her gratefully.

Otherwise, if she fell like this in front of the person she likes, how could she have the face to stay

here?

Bella changed the subject and said, "By the way, Beatrice, did you drink the herbal medicine? I saw you were busy earlier, so I specifically asked Mr. Caden to save some for you." Beatrice turned out to mean Bella.

She looked at Bella's clean eyes, but couldn't get angry. She smiled and nodded, "I drank it, thank

Chapter 222. Never

you.

"It's nothing... Hiss."

Bella was trying to stand up straight, but her prosthetic leg seemed to be uncomfortable, causing her to furrow her brows deeply.

She looked at Caden with difficulty and said, 'Mr. Caden, my wheelchair is inside the house, can

you..."

"Um."

Without saying a word, Caden immediately lifted Bella horizontally.

As Bella turned and walked away, she blushed and glanced at Beatrice, playfully raising her index finger to her lips.

She pretended, but she had no ill intentions. She just wanted the person she liked to hold her.

Beatrice nodded and immediately felt that all the elders at the dining table liked Bella was correct.

If it weren't for such an awkward encounter, she would have liked it too.

She couldn't stand the oppression anymore and walked quickly towards the kitchen.

At that moment, the servant came in pushing two empty trash bins.

Beatrice stopped in her tracks and asked, "All thrown away?"

The servant nodded, "Yes, the Baldwin family did not allow garbage to stay overnight."

"Me too."

Beatrice didn't say anything anymore. When she walked into the kitchen, Monica was feeding Ryan fruits.

Seeing the situation, she sat across from the two of them.

'Ryan, there's something I wanted to discuss with you."

"You said," Ryan adjusted his posture.

"Don't call me for any activities of the Baldwin family in the future, I mean regardless of their size. If Sir Baldwin insists on me coming, please help me decline. You know he will definitely mention my mom." To say it is to suggest, but in reality, it is a threat.

Upon hearing this, Ryan's face became serious, as he understood the implied meaning behind Beatrice's words.

We won't be a family anymore in the future, and even the ties of blood and kinship won't count

"Beatrice, you were wronged."

"Ryan, please take good care of my mom, Beatrice entrusted with a smile.

Monica wanted to scold Beatrice, but as soon as she thought about how they were all huddled together in the kitchen eating today, she finally realized that it was she who had burdened Beatrice.

It was Beatrice who was forced to come back and endure this humiliation time and time again. She immediately put

a smile and said, "Take good care of yourself

"I left."

Beatrice walked away without looking back.

A moment later, the butler arrived in the kitchen.

"Mr. Ryan, Mrs. Monica Baldwin, and Ms. Soder were leaving."

"Um. We are coming right away."

Ryan tidied up the clothes and walked outside with Monica.

The butler immediately spoke up, "Sir Baldwin asked Ms. Lindsey to accompany the guests." "Beatrice had left earlier," Ryan refused.

"Mr. Ryan, why don't you make a phone call and ask her to come back to see off the guests? Sir Baldwin is still waiting for her," the butler reminded.

"What? No Beatrice today, so Ms. Soder can't leave the house? How about I let you take charge of my second house! My daughter still needs you to give orders?" Ryan said angrily.

"No, I didn't dare."

The butler took two steps back.

Ryan snorted coldly and walked out with Monica.

Under the porch.

As soon as Xander saw that Beatrice didn't come, he immediately scolded, "No manners." Ryan stood with his hands on his hips and said, "Dad, our family never had a rule that prohibit family members from eating at the table."

"You..." Xander frowned and changed his tone, "Tell her that in a few days we will be hosting Belly and her brother at the house, ask her to come early, don't be so impolite!"

"No, she wouldn't come anymore. From now on, the Baldwin family's affairs have nothing to do with her, and there is no need to insist on her being a witness. Everything ends here."

Ryan always thought that if Xander spent more time with Beatrice, he would like her.

But he was wrong.

No matter whether there was blood relation or not, Xander would not like anyone who did not please him.

Xander was furious, but just as he was about to explode, he saw Bella and Caden coming out together and immediately put on a smile.

"Bella, let Caden take you back."

Thank you, Uncle, Bella glanced at the crowd, "Where is Beatrice? Why isn't she here?" Xander was about to mock sarcastically, but Ryan interrupted, saying, "Ms. Soder, Beatrice has already left, she's been quite busy with work lately, so she won't be attending any gatherings." Bella felt a little disappointed, but she expressed understanding: "It's okay, I could tell just by looking at her that she was a beautiful and capable woman."

"Mr. Caden, let's go first."

She spoke as she manipulated the wheelchair, but the man beside her did not move, as if bor in thought.

"Mr. Caden? What happened to you?"

Caden snapped back to reality and coldly glanced at her, saying, "It's nothing, grt in the car"

After helping Bella into the car, Keith stored the wheelchair and drove away from the Baldwi

mansion.

Bella said a lot of things beside, including her college years and her rehabilitation training after her amputation.

She didn't complain about anything, but rather wanted to communicate more with the indifferent man in front of her.

Just as she spoke about the little cat she had rescued, Caden's thin lips pursed slightly.

"Stop the car."

Bella was

extremely

extremely embarrassed, "Was it because I talked

much?

"No, I remembered something, let Keith take you back."

Saying that, Caden opened the door and got out of the car.

Bella's face turned pale, and she reached out to stop him for a moment, saying "Mr. Caden, my brother wanted to meet you in a few days..."
