To Ashes `234

Chapter 234 Listen to My Arrangements

The sudden kiss startled Beatrice, and she forgot to resist.

It was not until the man approached that she fully regained her senses, disregarding the dishwashing foam on her hands and raising her hand to wave him away. But what's infuriating is that Caden always manages to be one step ahead of her. Before her hand. could even strike, his five fingers clasp and press her down from behind.

She had to straighten her body, getting closer to his chest.

Her gaze

lifted up and collided with the man's eyes.

His eyelids drooped slightly, his gaze was deep and hoarse, and his lips were fierce yet filled with longing,

Beatrice angrily withdrew her hand, forcefully prying his hand apart, and creating distance between the two of them.

Her nose felt sour, she took a deep breath, and then suppressed the sourness in her throat.

"Why were you always so carefree?"

"Who exactly is the one who does as they please? After provoking me, do they want to provoke others?"noveldrama

Caden coldly turned the wrench, his face exuding restrained indifference and gloom. Beatrice couldn't argue with him and her voice sounded bitter, 'Say whatever you want."

After saying that, she turned around and prepared to leave the kitchen.

Suddenly, a strong and powerful hand grabbed her by the back of her neck and pulled her back pressing her against the refrigerator.

The man ignored her resistance and grabbed the back of her head, fiercely kissing her. Beatrice turned her head directly, leaving her lips suspended in front of him. His breath fell right by her ear, slightly disheveled, but growing increasingly scorching. She lowered her gaze and reminded, 'Uncle Caden, you are getting engaged in a few days."

Caden didn't continue anymore, he raised his hand and pinched her chin, turning her face. Four pairs of eyes locked, the man's lips curved with a hint of cold mockery.

"So what? Your presence wouldn't change anything."

Beatrice's face was pale to the point of transparency, her hands were dry and rough from the dried-out dish soap in them.

She made an effort to purse her lips and looked at him before finally asking the question, "Why did you go to Norway to save me? And why did you enter the mine to save me back then? Could it be that you saved me..."

Did you save me just to put me in this embarrassing position now?

She couldn't bring herself to say these words.

Caden squinted his eyes, leaned back against the kitchen island, and silently lit a cigarette

Chapter 234 Listen to My Arrangement,

Those ink-black eyes were like a bottomless cold pool, so calm and yet so icy. He looked at her deeply, making Beatrice's heart tremble.

"Beatrice, it concerned the Baldwin family."

"Listen, listen to my instructions."

Upon hearing the words, Beatrice felt dizzy and had to lean against the refrigerator to keep from falling down.

Her heart felt like it was being cut again and again, but she couldn't feel the pain, only the sensation of her whole body being drenched in blood.

At this moment, the voices of the siblings could be heard from outside the kitchen. Beatrice took a deep breath and walked to the edge of the sink, continuing to wash the dishes. with her weakened body.

But as soon as I lowered my head, tears fell into the sink as if the thread had been cut. Behind, Caden gazed at Beatrice through the white fog, the cigarette ash burning his hand, but he didn't move.

Bella came in and looked at Caden in surprise, saying, "Mr. Caden, what are you doing here?" Caden lit a cigarette and waved the white smoke in front of her, saying, "I forgot to bring a lighter, come and light my cigarette." Listening to his indifferent tone, Beatrice felt like a mocked clown.

Thinking, there was a loud bang.

The bowl in Beatrice's hand fell into the sink.

She hurried to pick it up, but was scratched by the fragments. However, she felt nothing and reached her injured hand into the foamy water.

Just as my hand was about to touch the water, someone came up and grabbed it. "Bleeding occurred, be careful of infection."

Beatrice finally came to her senses and turned her head to look at the person who had arrived, it was Odin.

He stared at her red eyes, furrowed his brows, wiped her hand with a tissue, and didn't ask anything.

"Bella, is there a medicine box here? I need to attend to Beatrice."

Bella nodded and glanced at Beatrice, surprised as she asked, "Beatrice, why are your eyes so red?" Beatrice blinked nervously and said, "I seemed to be sensitive to the scent of dish soap." Bella leaned in and sniffed, "I bought jasmine-scented, is it too strong? You can leave it, I'll clean up. Originally, you were a guest, and you even washed the dishes for me. It's really embarrassing." as the hostess, Beatrice could tell. She didn't mean to show off her status As Beatrice looked at Bella's smiling face, guilt churned in her stomach and her face turned pale. Bella worriedly exclaimed, 'Oh no, are you allergic to jasmine? Your face has turned pale. Please sit down, I'll make you a cup of tea."

"Thank you."

Beatrice followed Odin and left.

Behind her, Bella complained, "Mr. Caden, how dare you watch Beatrice washing dishes? Let me

do it."

She was about to reach out, but Caden immediately stopped her.

"Don't touch it, I'll take care of it."

Upon hearing this, Beatrice sneered inwardly and quickened her pace. to leave.

After the others left, Caden tidied up the fragments and looked at the bloodstains on them, his expression complex and restrained.

"Did you take the medicine?"

Bella's expression froze: "You ate it, and you're even more long-winded than my brother."

Noticing that he was staring at the fragments, she changed the subject and said, "Why don't we buy a dishwasher? I don't want to have a maid come and disturb us."

"Tomorrow, I will take you to the main residence."

"Why? I thought it was fine here."

Bella looked a bit hurt in her eyes, she really enjoyed their alone time.. "The engagement banquet was held at the main residence, aren't you tired running around like this? Moreover, the main residence is the Baldwin family's, Caden said casually. Bella listened and immediately relaxed her forehead: "You care about me? Okay, I'll listen to you."

Caden didn't respond and threw away all the bowls.

Beatrice's wound was not deep, so she disinfected it and applied a band-aid While Odin was tidying up the medicine box, he whispered, "Do you want to go back?" Beatrice was amazed by his insight, but at that moment her mind was in a state of confusion and she just wanted to leave quickly.

She nodded and said, "Hmm."

"Let's go then."

Odin helped her up, just as Caden and Bella came out.

Bella handed over the tea: "Beatrice, have some tea."

Beatrice shook her head and said, "I won't drink, let's

go

first.

"But...

"Bella, it was already late, and there was still snow outside," Odin interrupted.

*Alright, then be careful on your way."

"Um."

Beatrice said goodbye and turned around to change her shoes before leaving, Just as I arrived downstairs, Odin's assistant drove the car over.

As soon as Beatrice got on the car, she saw Odin and Caden coming down together.

As a high-end luxury residential complex, the entire community consisted of only three buildings.

Not only was the community environment good, but even the landscapes in front of each building were designed by different international architects.

Caden was the most expensive area in the entire neighborhood.

The ancient and luxurious corridor in front of the door, with its scattered landscaping made the two men appear like aristocratic descendants from ancient times, tall and

On the other side.

Odin looked meaningfully and said, "Mr. Caden, I'm counting on you for Bella, but with the engagement approaching, I don't want any complications to arise."

Caden's expression turned cold and distant as he said, 'Mr. Soder, I also didn't like things getting out of control."

The words fell, and the two exchanged a glance, with a surge of hidden emotions. A moment later, Odin got on the car.

Beatrice didn't ask much, and

and she remained quiet throughout the journey. When they arrived at her house, as she got off the car, Odin called out to her. "Aren't you curious about what Mr. Caden and I talked about?" Beatrice was worried that Odin was testing her and immediately shook her head, saying, "Not curious, Mr. Soder, thank you for taking me back."

"Hmm." Odin nodded.

Beatrice left as if she was running away.

After entering the building, she discovered that there were two maintenance signs placed by the elevator entrance.

What bad luck! Both elevators were broken.

In desperation, Beatrice had to climb the stairs.

When she climbed to the second floor, she faintly heard footsteps behind her.

"Who?"

It was quiet, and there was no response.

Beatrice thought she had overthought, but still quickened her pace.

To my surprise, the footsteps behind me grew closer and closer, and suddenly a figure chased after me.
