Chapter 186 You’re Only Worth This Much
Upon hearing the news of Madelynn’s pregnancy, Beatrice dropped the bowl in her hands onto the table, spilling hot soup all over herself.
Everyone turned !!! look
her, their expressions strange and disdainful.
After all, the last time so many people gathered together was to condemn her for drugging and seducing someone.
Beatrice quickly got up and grabbed a tissue to wipe: “Sorry.”
Xander glanced and said displeasedly, “How can you go out like this?”
The implication was that she could leave.
Beatrice paused, wiping her hands, and understood Xander’s intention for inviting her to this meal.
The so–called getting rid of bad luck, what was gotten rid of was just her.
She lowered her gaze and nodded, “Hmm. Take you
your time.”
Beatrice picked up her backpack and walked out of the restaurant, the gazes on her body felt like knives slowly torturing her.
In a short while, Monica followed up.
“Beatrice, I’m sorry, I didn’t know about Sir Baldwin…”
“Never mind, but you also saw Sir Baldwin’s attitude. Madelynn is pregnant and will move in the future. I will never come again. If you need me, let’s meet outside.”
Beatrice didn’t want her to
her to worry, 50 she comforted her with a few words.
Monica pursed her lips and said, “I haven’t been able to get pregnant for over three years, but how is it that I get pregnant after just one trip?”
Beatrice coldly said, Pregnancy is not something that can be achieved by oneself.”
Monica’s face stiffened, and she stopped speaking.
She took Beatrice’s hand and walked towards the backyard.
“I bought you clothes for the changing season. You are a designer now, at least, so don’t always wear out–of–season clothes.”
“I was still an intern, earning only a few thousand dollars a month. I didn’t need so many clothes.”
“Mom bought it for you.”
Monica dragged her and left.
After Monica changed into a new set of clothes, Beatrice took her things and left. As she was walking through the corridor, someone called out to her from behind.
“Beatrice.”
Madelynn was wearing a white coat embroidered with Su embroidery today, standing in the sunset, gentle and delicate.
The woman wearing sexy lingerie in the hotel was completely different from her usual self
76-95
Beatrice looked at the approaching person and instinctively took two steps back. Is there something wrong?”
Madelynn stopped and glanced at the new clothes on Beatrice.
“New clothes? They really suit you,” she sighed softly, covering her lips. “Unfortunately, from now on, I can only wear loose–fitting clothes. I also don’t know if there are any stylish maternity clothes.”
Beatrice looked at her with indifference as she said, “I thought you had more experience in this
area.
Madelynn’s smile froze, and a hint of fierceness flashed in her eyes as she asked, “What do you mean?”
Beatrice said calmly,
“Dressing up, otherwise what do
you
think I said?”
She focused her gaze on Madelynn’s belly.
Just now, Beatrice looked up on the internet.
There are still many people who get pregnant immediately after having an abortion, but this is very dangerous.
Madelynn also
gave it her all.
Since Caden could accept even Madelynn’s betrayal, what else could she say?
I could only offer my blessings.
Madelynn gently stroked her belly, and when she looked up again, there was only contempt in her
eyes.
“Beatrice, in the end, it must feel empty and unpleasant, right? But who made Mr. Caden love, me? However, rest assured, we won’t mistreat you.”
Treated unfairly?
Beatrice looked at Madelynn in confusion.
Madelynn leisurely pulled out a check from her bag and handed it t
to Beatrice.
“You have worked hard serving Mr. Caden during this period of time. This is the money from. before, and I will give you the remaining money
Beatrice glanced at the numbers on the check, two million.
on
time in the
future.
My colleague said that when Bailee and Alicia’s husband were involved with each other in the past, they secretly used two million dollars from Alicia.
What an ironic number.
She sneered, “What do you mean by ‘other money?”
Madelynn stared at Beatrice’s face and smirked condescendingly, “I got pregnant, you know. Men always have those needs, and I don’t trust other women out there. Besides, you’re used to it anyway, so isn’t this just perfect?”
She lightly slipped the check into Beatrice’s hand.
Beatrice was shocked and appalled.
Is this helping her husband take concubines?
Beatrice smiled and raised the check in her hand, “Ms. Bradford is so generous, truly deserving of being Mrs. Baldwin. However, we still need Sir Baldwin’s approval for this matter. Come on, let’s go and ask together. Sir Baldwin and the other elders will surely be moved by you.”
As soon as Madelynn heard that she was going to meet Xander, her proud expression froze for a moment, and she couldn’t take a step.
“So you’re afraid too,” Beatrice laughed as she slapped the check back onto her face. “Madelynn, stop pretending to be so magnanimous here. Instead of humiliating me when you have the chance, why don’t you hold onto your man tighter? What’s the matter? Can’t even keep him with a child? Then have a few more, since you’re supposedly the most experienced.” “You… What nonsense are you talking about!” Madelynn’s face turned pale.
“Don’t provoke me anymore!”
Beatrice turned around and left.
Madelynn gritted her teeth in anger, but after taking a deep breath, she immediately put on a soft and gentle smile.
“Beatrice, I know you felt insulted by this, but… this was Mr. Caden’s intention, and this price was given by Mr. Caden. If it wasn’t for his approval, how could I have possibly come to find you?” Beatrice stopped and tightened the paper bag in her hand.
Madelynn was the best at acting, she could really get into character, so she knew that this line had. an element of acting.
Madelynn was right about one thing.
If it weren’t for Caden’s indulgence, she wouldn’t dare to say such things in the Baldwin family. Taking advantage of Beatrice’s distraction, Madelynn approached her step by step, slowly raising her hand and said,
You were just worth this much.
Beatrice was dazed.

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?...
