< Chapter 242 Proda Chapter 242 Profit As soon as Monica heard that Xander was looking for her, she thought that he wanted to praise her for her efficient work. She turned around and grabbed Beatrice, ready to leave.

Beatrice walked into the living room and found not only the Baldwin family but also the Soder family.

When the crowd saw them, a look of disdain was clearly visible in their eyes. Walking into the hall, she lifted her gaze and met Caden's cold ink-black eyes. He sat at the head of the crowd, turning the red jade thumb ring, his expression almost cold-hearted.

Beatrice knew something had happened.

As soon as she stood firm, she saw dozens of unpacked souvenirs piled on the ground.

Without waiting for her to speak, Bella hurriedly walked over.

"Beatrice, what exactly happened?" Beatrice was about to take a closer look when Monica seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Ms. Soder, is something missing again? I'll call someone immediately to make up for it." Bella raised her hand to stop and looked at Beatrice with a troubled expression, "Beatrice, didn't you realize that you were too tired?" Beatrice didn't quite understand what she meant, just as she was about to speak, the sound of a teacup falling heavily on the side sofa.

She turned around and immediately issued a statement declaring herself as a non-marriage advocate.

Beatrice knew about the decades-old news because Angie had broken her vow of not getting married after that. Without any warning, she got married to a mysterious man and then settled abroad.

It caused quite a sensation at the time.

In her past life, Beatrice glanced at the paparazzi's airport photo of the two people, and she always felt that the man's silhouette was inexplicably familiar.

At that moment, Angie stood up and smiled lightly.

"Second sister-in-law? Bella, I'm afraid that you were so kindhearted to others, but they only took advantage of you." Bella pursed her lips, unsure of what to say for a moment.

"Ms. Lezon, what do you mean? I only slept four hours a day for the past few days, taking care of everything myself, all for the sake of Bella and Caden's engagement to be successful," Monica. retorted angrily.

Monica just glanced at it and argued, "Everything is clearly in order, why are you accusingof profiting?" "Mom," Beatrice whispered, signaling her to hold off on speaking.

Monica, however, couldn't swallow this anger. She had finally made it through in this family, but was being mocked and ridiculed by outsiders.

"These things..." "Mom!" Chapter 242 Hold Beatrice's loud voice overwhelmed her.

Monica, not being foolish, immediately understood Beatrice's gaze. After a moment of being stunned, she snatched the bracelet from her hand.

"How could this happen? It's impossible!" Angie brushed past Monica, calmly sat down, picked up her teacup, and took a sip. "Monica, it seems like you admitted that the bracelet was fake." "Bella's father was delayed overseas due to a snowstorm, so he asked me, as Bella's relative, to attend the engagement banquet. Now that this has happened, it's really difficult forto explain."

Monica leaned against him and said with a grievance, "Honey, I really didn't cheat." "I trust you," Ryan nodded.
