To Ashes 269 Chapter 269 Were You Kicked Out? As soon as Keith finished speaking, Caden opened the door and walked out.

The three of them looked at each other in surprise.

Brend laughed, "You were kicked out?" Caden frowned, "She was going to sleep." Brend stifled a laugh, who would believe such a clumsy excuse? Caden looked at him and said, "Keep an eye on her, don't let her mess around." Upon hearing the words, Brend knew that Caden had already found out about it.

But he definitely didn't know about Monica's situation.

Brend hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "What if others mess things up?" Caden's eyes turned cold suddenly, "The Baldwin Group and the Lezon Group were about to collaborate, and it must not go wrong" Brend froze, stopped speaking, and just nodded.

"Mom, don't pay attention to him. Remember, it's not your fault. Leave the rest toto handle.

She also knew that Monica couldn't listen to reason now.

What Monica needed the most was reliance.

"Beatrice, will Ryan... despise me?" Monica sobbed.

Beatrice wanted to say no, but in her mind, she recalled the image of Angie and Ryan getting married in their past lives.

True and false, her mind had long been in a state of confusion.

All she had to do now was to make sure Monica survived.

"Mom, everything was still unsettled, do you believe in me?" "Um. Beatrice, be careful." Monica's emotions gradually stabilized.

After hanging up the phone, Beatrice hadn't even put down her mobile phone when someone couldn't wait any longer.

"Beatrice, how did you consider my proposal from yesterday? My patience is limited." It was Angie.

She couldn't wait any longer.

A moment later, she clicked her tongue and said, "You look good, but you're too thin. My family's Jakob is from a four-generation single lineage. Can you give birth to a son?" Upon hearing the words, Beatrice glanced at her husband, Jakob Seiner.

Gillian frowned again, "Just eat this little? Then how will we have children in the future? Women should prioritize their families after getting married, what's the point of not having children?"

Jakob forcefully placed the cup in front of Gillian, who, like a conditioned reflex, closed her mouth and poured water from the teapot for NO him Beatrice paused for a moment, but before she could gather her thoughts, Jakob suddenly turned his head and stared at her.
