When Love Turns to Ashes (Beatrice and Caden) novel Chapter 139

Chapter 139 Reversal Once Again 

Menui 

As soon as Devin saw Beatrice coming, he preparedly took out the jewelry he had in his hand. 

“I had someone look at it, and the sapphire on this brooch is definitely not the one I gave to Beatrice.” 

“I have the certificate of the gemstones here, as well as the confirmation letter signed by Beatrice herself during the handover.” 

“It is enough to illustrate that she had long planned for my gem, and today’s events were nothing but her trap.” 

With Devin’s accusation, Madelynn, standing in the crowd, glared threateningly at Selina. 

Just now, Selina almost shouted out her name during the live broadcast. She specifically explained it to them when they were going downstairs. 

At this moment, Selina did not disappoint Madelynn either. She was wrapped in a bathrobe, glaring darkly at Beatrice. 

The next second, she suddenly burst into tears and cried out loudly, claiming her innocence. 

“It wasn’t me! I was framed by Beatrice too! I had no idea she stole Mr. Powell’s gemstone! Beatrice, how could you do this to me and Mr. Powell? I can’t live anymore!” 

After speaking, she bumped into a pillar. 

The crowd couldn’t react in time, and by the time someone came forward to pull Selina, she had already suffered a head injury and was bleeding. 

Don’t be fooled by Selina’s usual timid appearance, in fact, she is even crazier than Madelynn. Nodding and bowing, apologizing, self–harming to prove oneself, doing things that normal people disdain and dare not do, she is capable of doing anything. 

As long as she could achieve what she wanted. 

Just like now, when faced with someone who proves their innocence by committing suicide, people naturally prefer to believe them. 

And there was the evidence provided by Devin. 

The reproachful and disdainful gaze fell once again upon Beatrice. 

But as Beatrice approached, the reproachful and disdainful looks of the crowd turned into shock when they saw the scarf around her neck. 

Everyone conscientiously made way for her. 

Beatrice, without any doubt, walked slowly to the edge of the stage and glanced at Devin and Selina, giving a light laugh. 

“Both of you, you say I framed you, but I dare not admit it. I didn’t hold a knife to your necks and force you two to mingle.” 

“Moreover, throughout the live broadcast, Selina never shouted for help, and Mr. Powell was even fighting when Mrs. Powell knocked on the door. How could I frame them?” 

“I have one more question. Since I wasn’t present, may I ask both of you how

Upon hearing this, Selina’s blood–stained face turned even paler, and even Devin’s expression/ 

froze. 

Selina’s room card was stolen. 

Devin had already made it known that he was framed, so how could he admit to accepting someone else’s room card? 

In this way, both of them became mute and couldn’t explain anything for a long time. Selina, of course, could not just sit and wait for death. Unable to explain, she cried uncontrollably in agony. 

I always felt that my tears could win sympathy. 

What a pity… 

Beatrice walked slowly up to Selina and instead of questioning her about why she had falsely accused her, she kindly helped her up. 

“Selina, if you really liked Mr. Powell, you could have just said it directly. There was no need to play these petty tricks and interfere with someone else’s feelings. It’s not right.” Selina was extremely terrified and stuttered before finally speaking up,“No, I, I didn’t… you’re making false accusations.” 

Beatrice sneered. 

Did the boomerang hit oneself and know it hurt? 

This is not over yet. 

Suddenly, the sound of Selina’s voice 

came 

from the banquet hall’s speakers. 

“Mr. Powell was so wealthy, if he had been willing… what a great thing it would have been, others couldn’t envy it.” 

“Even if Mrs. Powell found out, she would not divorce Mr. Powell for the sake of their children.” 

Listening to her own eager voice, Selina’s face turned pale. 

She turned her head and met Beatrice’s faint smile. 

Beatrice moved her lips silently, “You’re right, others can’t envy 

it.” 

Are you familiar with it? 

This is all said by Selina herself.

up abruptly. 

Selina 

“Shut it off! Shut it off! It’s all fake! Beatrice framed me!” 

“I am willing to take it for Voiceprint Identification, enough to prove whether this statement was actually said by Selina,” Beatrice exclaimed loudly. 

“I am also willing to prove that what Beatrice said is true.” 

It was not someone else who was speaking, but Alicia, who had previously forced Beatrice to please Devin. 

Alicia glanced at Amanda trembling beside her and coldly snorted as she walked forward. Amanda strongly recommended Selina to attend the celebration banquet, but it was also her betrayal to inform Madelynn about every decision made by Alicia.

Just because Alicia couldn’t move Madelynn doesn’t mean she couldn’t move her. / 

“I can testify that every word Beatrice said is true. After delivering the jewelry to Mr. Powell, Selina stuck to Beatrice like glue, afraid of her having any private interaction with Mr. Powell. I believe everyone in the hall must have witnessed it.” 

Everyone nodded, indeed seeing Selina following Beatrice in the hall, walking hesitantly. Selina stood frozen, her shocked gaze darting between Beatrice and Alicia, only then realizing that the two of them had been acting all along! 

“You, all of you…” 

“Selina, this is not the first time you have made a mistake in the studio. You’d better not work here anymore.” Alicia said coldly. 

The implicit meaning is that Selina was fired. 

Selina collapsed to the ground, completely drained of strength, but this time no one went to help her up. 

Seeing that things were not going well, Jessie looked at Oscar and wanted him to come up with an idea. 

Who knew, Oscar stared fixedly at the scarf around Beatrice’s neck, with no other thoughts in his mind. 

Jessie’s eyes instantly turned malicious. After a few seconds of contemplation, she walked up to the crowd and changed the subject. 

“Beatrice, these things you said cannot prove that you didn’t steal the Kashmir Sapphire from the Powell family. The gemstone we entrusted to you for safekeeping is now missing from your possession. Are you pretending it’s a substitute? Shouldn’t you give us an explanation?” 

Hearing the sound, Beatrice looked at Jessie. 

When they met again, there was no longer 

again, there was no longer the same harmony and warmth between them as 

before.
