Chapter 102 The Misunderstanding Grows
"I... she got pregnant! I had to pinch myself, this woman even deceived and tricked me? I can't believe I even helped her get a mental health certificate!" Brend almost screamed out, he was actually tricked by Beatrice!
"Speak,"
Caden said, pulling his phone away and speaking
impatiently, "Preventing a threatened miscarriage primarily requires proper rest and attention to diet. Especially, one must avoid overexertion," said Brend. "Um."
"What are you planning to do? With her identity... If she had caused a scandal before, she would have accepted your advances and you could have married her under public pressure, even your Ad man couldn't say anything. But she actually refused. Tell me the truth, you were so actively cooperating with the old man to force her to admit, but deep down you had ulterior motives, right?"
Brend chuckled mischievously.
Caden lowered his gaze and said, "It's over."
Brend loudly objected, "You can't be so indecisive, you have to show your strengths!*
"Already did it."
"What..." Beep beep beep.
On the other end of the phone, Brend was completely confused.
Did you perform?
Which aspect is being referred to?

After being checked by Jessie,
Caden
escorted her out of the building.
After getting in the car together, Jessie smiled and said, "Caden, could you please run an errand?"
Caden did not respond and nodded slightly.
Finally, the Baldwin family was reached after a long wait.
Monica had been waiting in the porch, and she exchanged a few greetings with the approaching
person.
"Xander was waiting for everyone to have dinner, so go in first."
Jessie and Caden nodded and walked in.
Beatrice and Monica were walking at the back, and she asked in confusion, "Wasn't it the two of us having dinner?"
Monica frowned and said, "While I was waiting for you, Xander and the others came back. Caden said he was going to the hospital to visit his sister-in-law, and Xander said to wait for you to come back and eat together. He has already spoken, so you should also give some respect to the elders."
"Um."

Walking into the restaurant, everyone had already taken their seats.
Menu
Beatrice looked at the huge round table and thought about the last time she sat here for a meal, going crazy with Madelynn and her daughter.
Xander, dressed in a formal suit, had a slightly serious expression on his face.
Out of politeness, Beatrice still politely called out, "Sir Baldwin."
"Well, let's sit down and have a meal."
He waved his hand to signal everyone to start forking.
Beatrice looked at the table full of seafood and licked her lips, but with Xander there, she only picked the beef in front of her. She represented not only herself, but also Monica.
nowing that Monica would still be living with the Baldwin family, every word and action of hers as their daughter became crucial.
As she was thinking, Monica served her a lot of seafood, sashimi, conch, and also brought a big bowl of lobster porridge.
Monica whispered calmly, "Let's eat first. After we change tables, I'll bring you abalone and scallop-stuffed shrimp paste." Beatrice nodded repeatedly and silently said, "Thank you, Mom."
She used to not eat seafood before, always feeling it was a bit fishy, but after trying the seafood cooked by the Baldwin family chef once, she completely changed her mind. She picked up the seafood porridge and took a sip, then went to pick up the raw fish slices. Suddenly, Caden coughed twice and set down the fork.
"The sashimi went bad, let's withdraw."
"The meat of the snail did not effectively remove the fishy smell."
"My sister-in-law couldn't eat too much cold and cooling food. Dad's stomach wasn't feeling well last night either, so let's cancel it. Let's go stew some chicken soup and bring over some warm stomach food instead."
Beatrice was a little surprised, she looked quite fresh.
But the Baldwin family didn't give her a chance to voice her opinion, so she could only silently put down her fork.
The butler did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly called on the servants to start working. Xander looked at Caden and nodded, "It's impressive that you still remember these." Listening to their father's kindness and their filial piety, Beatrice tightened her fork. She thought she could have another meal of the Baldwin family seafood feast.
After a while, the servant brought chicken soup and stomach-nourishing millet porridge, along with some light side dishes.
Beatrice stared at the bowl of millet porridge in front of her and regretted not having a few more bites of seafood porridge earlier.
this moment, Xander held a spoon and stirred the hot soup in the bowl, and said in a commanding tone, "Beatrice, don't you like it?" 70.8%

Beatrice was taken aback, clenched the spoon tightly, and shook her head, "No." "Have some more, it's rare to have the opportunity to eat like this in the future," Xander said politely. "Um."
Beatrice understood what he meant.
She was still implying that she should come to the Baldwin family less in the future. Xander took a sip of soup and continued to ask, "By the way, Beatrice, what did you come here to do today?" Beatrice picked up the bowl and then put it down again, raising her gaze to meet Xander's warning look.
Some things had to be personally promised by her in public in order to reassure people. "I have already moved out, come and pick up the last few belongings, I won't be living here anymore." "Well, finally understood."
Xander nodded in satisfaction and continued eating.
