Chapter 158 Killed Beatrice

Sara’s attention was focused on Brend all night, and now she just realized that Madelynn’s attire was the same as the woman in the video.
“You….” she frowned and stared at Madelynn.
Madelynn exclaimed in fear, “You don’t suspect me, do you? I was with Mr. Caden.”
Sara’s eyes wandered, half believing and half doubting.
Brend dropped his cigarette butt and stomped on it forcefully. “It seems like this was aimed at Ms. Bradford; Sara was just being used. Ms. Bradford, have you offended anyone recently?”
Madelynn pretended to lower her gaze and pondered, “This… is Beatrice.” “Although we had a few unpleasant arguments, she shouldn’t have used Sara either. Does she still have videos like the one she used to frame Sara?”
“What if it gets posted online? How can we face people then?”
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears.
Sara glared angrily, “She dared!”
Madelynn advised, “Don’t worry about me, just resolve the misunderstanding between the two of
and go back quickly.”

Sara didn’t say anything and walked away.
Madelynn and Brend smiled at each other.
“The bar surveillance footage was deleted, and it cannot be confirmed whether it was Beatrice or not.”
“It’s okay, I said it’s her, so it’s her,” Madelynn huffed lightly.

After the commotion at the bar, Beatrice didn’t sleep well all night, and she lacked energy for work the next day.
Even hallucinations occurred, always feeling like someone was staring at me from behind.
So after work, she just wanted to go home and sleep as soon as possible.
When she opened the door with the key, suddenly the elevator behind her made a sound.
She thought it was Audrey from next door coming back, about to greet her, when two dark figures suddenly rushed out.
There was a thud.
She was grabbed by her hair and slammed into the wall, instinctively clutching tightly and collapsing.
In a daze, she heard two people mentioning a cellphone.
Immediately, she fell into darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, Beatrice slowly regained consciousness, but the entire world before her was upside down.
When she saw the surroundings clearly, her heart suddenly shrank, and her body, which had

been struggling, dared not move at all.

Because at that time, she was being hung upside down on a ten–meter diving platform.
And below is a murky and filthy swimming pool.
This should have been an abandoned swimming pool.
The seats on the stands had long faded, some of them already buried in the weeds, and the windows around the roof were shattered.
When the draft blew through the hallway, it emitted a terrifying buzzing sound, mixed with the squeaking sound of ropes rubbing against the edge of the jumping platform. Beatrice’s body swayed with the rope, feeling as if she would plunge down the next second. Her cheeks turned red, and her breathing became rapid, with the sound of her heartbeat pounding in her ears.
Suddenly, there came the clattering sound of high heels from below.
Sara, wearing a men’s leather jacket, walked to the shore with five or six men.
She crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow, staring at Beatrice’s face. She clicked her tongue twice and said, “No wonder she dares to seduce Mr. Caden. Turns out she has a foxy face. What a pity, I am not a man, so I don’t understand the concept of cherishing beauty.”
With that, she raised her hand and clapped twice.
Beatrice didn’t even have time to react, as the ropes loosened and she plummeted into the water. Despite being mentally prepared, she still screamed in fear.
“Ah!”
The tremendous impact left her feeling as if she had lost her soul, but her hands and feet were bound, and she couldn’t even struggle.
When she felt like her lungs were about to explode, she was quickly pulled up again.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
་
Beatrice coughed forcefully; her breath filled with pain.
Sara burst into laughter.
The laughter echoed in the venue for a long time before finally fading away, mixed with her malicious tone.
“Beatrice, this is the consequence of playing tricks on me. This swimming pool will be filled with dirt tonight. If you don’t want these filthy waters to bury forever, hand over those videos you synthesized obediently.”
Beatrice gritted her teeth, trying hard to calm herself down.
“Synthesis? Madelynn told you? No wonder you were deceived by her and ended up with nothing. So, you are easily fooled!”
“You! It seems that unless I teach you a lesson, you really think I’m joking with you? The security renovation of this area is under my father’s control. As long as I nod, there will never be you, Beatrice, in this world again!”
“So, your
father was always an official like this, it seems that the Melendez family has been involved in many shady activities,” Beatrice sneered.

Upon hearing the words, a look of malice flashed across Sara’s face.
“Throw it down for me!”

Beatrice was once again thrown into the smelly pool, repeatedly, until she nearly drowned.
When she was pulled up again, her breath became extremely weak, but her gaze at Sara still carried the same stubbornness as before.
Sara felt inexplicably annoyed, “Where is the video? This was my last chance to give it to you!”
Beatrice glanced around and continued to ask, “I’m curious, why did you come to find me? And who sent you?”
“Shut up! Stop trying to sow discord in front of

turned her cheek away.

Seeing this, Sara made a disdainful sound and slowly took a few more steps closer.
“Beatrice, you were here with me, evading my questions and buying time. Did you think someone would come to rescue you?”
“Forgot to tell you, I have an uncle who works at the police station. He told me about the report you made before you passed out. He also said that girls sometimes have small conflicts, but once they’re resolved, it’s all good.”
Sara said as she took out the alarm from her pocket that Beatrice had hidden in her bag.
Once this thing is connected to the phone, when there is danger, all you need to do is press it lightly, and the phone will automatically help to sound the alarm and provide the location.

The readers' comments on the novel: When Love Turns to Ashes (Beatrice and Caden)
I hope the admin team can look into this. It’s a long winded story with the same old plot on repeat. So now that Beatrice has found out she’s pregnant, no doubt she’ll once be at risk of people wanting to ensure she miscarriages since it’s Cadens. Doesn’t help shes also engaged to Odin....
The last 70 chapters are repeated. It goes back to the storyline of Madeline and Selina. Why’s is that?...
