Chapter 336 How Much Money Did Mr. Caden Give You?

When Beatrice returned, Audrey had already prepared the meal.

She said strangely, "Audrey, aren't you going to work today?"

Audrey paused for a moment while serving the dishes, and then lowered her head to explain, "I had a lot

of vacation days, so my boss simply let me take two more days off."

"Um."

Beatrice washed her hands and ate her meal.

Just as I sat down, Audrey brought another bowl of pigeon soup, with large pieces of herbs floating in it. Beatrice had seen the servants stewing soup in the Baldwin family before, although she couldn't recognize all the ingredients, she still recognized one of the herbs with six digits.

She scooped up a slice-shaped object with a spoon and said, "Audrey, am I dying? They served me caviar." "Don't talk nonsense," Audrey said as she picked up another piece of ribs for her. She cleared her throat and explained, "Pigeon caviar soup is good for bone injuries, and it can also... nourish the kidneys. Women need it too, right? You can't just admire your handsome and strong boyfriend, can you?" With that, Audrey winked at Beatrice.

"Don't talk nonsense." Beatrice lowered her head and drank the soup.

Audrey chuckled, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After drinking half a bowl of soup, Beatrice stirred the caviar slices and said lightly, "Audrey, how much money did Mr. Caden give you?"

Audrey was startled, and she dropped the fork in her hand.

"You, you knew all along? Actually, I didn't want to deceive you either, but Mr. Caden didn't let me speak. He said you like to tough it out and that he doesn't inform your mother of any worries, so he asked me to take care of you

more."

"He was very nice to you, giving me a lot of nutritious ingredients, so that I could make different dishes for you. every day..."

Beatrice lowered her gaze and interrupted, "What if I became like this because of him?"

Audrey took a deep breath and exclaimed in a panic, "I, I didn't know."

"Audrey, I didn't want to have any more relationship with him." Beatrice put down the bowl and turned around. "Thank but I won't need it anymore."

you,

Audrey looked at the table full of food, her expression grave.

On the other side.

Caden, who was working, received a refund notification.

"Mr. Caden, I couldn't help you."

Keith, who was standing next to him, immediately took out his phone and said, "Let me ask Ms. Lindsey about her health condition."

The message had just been sent out when an exclamation mark appeared next to the text.

Keith was puzzled, "Ms. Lindsey blocked me."

Caden picked up his phone, opened the messaging app, but his finger never touched the screen.

Keith knew that he was afraid of seeing As long as we pretend not to know, everything remains the same as before.

Ah.

Beatrice took an afternoon nap and when she woke up, the doorbell rang.

As the door opened, Odin stood outside with steaming hot snacks.

"So many meals in a day, taking good care of myself, I should have gained ten pounds by now," she muttered.

"That means I have raised it well, just out of the oven, eat it while it's hot."

Odin walked into the door.

Beatrice

nodded with a smile, but the next second, she couldn't smile anymore.

She smelled a very distinctive perfume scent on Odin, the last time she had smelled it was on Lacey.

She hesitated for a moment, looking at the man who cared about her, and still didn't know how to ask.

At that moment, Odin came out of the kitchen with two plates and saw that Beatrice was still standing there dumbfounded.

"What happened?"

Beatrice snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head, stepping forward to take the plate. "Let me do

it."

Odin stopped her and said, "Just sit down and wait for the meal, I'll brew another pot of tea for you, it will help to refresh your palate."

"Thank you."

Just as Beatrice sat down to eat, that unfamiliar

number sent her

another photo.

It was a scene where Odin and Lacey were going in and out together.

It seemed like Lacey and Odin said something and laughed happily.

At this moment, Odin walked

over

with a cup

of tea.

"What are you looking at? You're all daydreaming."

Beatrice closed her phone, took a bite of the pastry, and commented, "This pastry is not as delicious as

the last time, I always feel like there is an extra taste."

"Taste?" Odin questioned skeptically.

Beatrice handed the pastry to him and said, "Don't believe me, just smell it."

Odin lowered his head to sniff, suddenly realizing what was happening.

"Do you know that I saw Lacey?"

"Well, she had a very distinctive scent on her, hard to forget," Beatrice explained calmly.

Odin stared at her for a while and asked, "Are you angry?"

Beatrice subconsciously thought, "No, does she have something to talk to you about?"

A seemingly ordinary sentence made the dining table silent for a while.

"Beatrice, you should have been angry," Odin said in a low voice.

"I...

I just didn't want to misunderstand you," Beatrice stammered as she explained.

Odin reached out and shook her hand, saying, "It's okay, take your time. I just hope you can be a little

more nervous about losing me, aren't you afraid someone will snatch me away?"

He half-jokingly defused the awkwardness in front of him.

Beatrice held his hand tightly and stared into his eyes, saying, "I trusted my instincts, and besides, no matter what decision you make, I will respect it, especially since I am like this now."

Odin solemnly said, "I also believed in my choice."

The two of them exchanged a smile, as if the sudden awkwardness that had just occurred had never happened. Odin poured tea for Beatrice and said, "Lacey did come to talk to me about something, and it also had to do with..."

Beatrice was listening attentively when her phone rang.

It was Bella's phone.

THEnoveldrama

"Beatrice, did you see the time and address for the singles party that I sent you just now?" Beatrice glanced at WhatsApp and said, "I just saw it."

The time was the night after tomorrow, and the location was Drake Hotel.

There were too many people from the Soder family and the Baldwin family, so both families rented a hotel to throw a pre-wedding party for Bella.

The messages given to her even included the performance times of many domestic bands and the entertainment facilities on the hotel floor.

Before, Beatrice used to think that a pre-wedding party was just everyone sitting together for a meal, at most going to KTV to sing a song.

Poverty still limited her imagination.

Bella reminded, "The midnight singles party was a costume ball, it must have been a lot of fun." "Costume party? I don't quite

understand. Maybe I'd better just forget about it."

Beatrice felt like an outsider herself, so she still wanted to refuse.

Bella's voice lowered: "Didn't we agree on this? I even prepared clothes for you, and my brother will also

come. As your girlfriend, won't you come?"

Upon hearing this, Beatrice could only agree.

"Okay."

"Then I had someone deliver the clothes to you."

"Thank you."

When Beatrice was about to hang up the phone, she heard a crackling sound from Bella's end, like the

sound of a phone rubbing against something.

It is estimated that Bella left her phone somewhere without hanging up the call.

Immediately, Bella's voice sounded, whining.

"Mr. Caden, this soup with herbs was really hard to drink. Giving it to me was just a waste of such

expensive medicinal ingredients."

Herbal tonic soup?

Beatrice thought of the pigeon caviar soup for lunch and clenched her phone tightly.

Caden's heart truly was "broad," and he sneered inwardly.

"Drink it."

The man's deep voice slowly resounded, inexplicably possessing a magnetic quality, as if coaxing a child to take medicine.

Bella continued, "Then I drank and ate the snacks you brought back last time, called Sweet Bakery." Listening, Beatrice instinctively looked at the box on the table, which was prominently labeled Sweet Bakery.

This is the shop she wanted to eat at the most, which she posted on Instagram a while ago.

Beatrice immediately hung up the phone, not wanting to listen any further.
