The crowd looked at Caden in disbelief.

Everyone knows that Xander hates it when people call him old.

Caden not only publicly called him old, but also said he spoke out of turn after drinking, undoubtedly trampling on Xander's dignity.

Xander's face tightened, his beard trembled, and even his usually sharp eyes were clouded for a

It seemed unbelievable that Caden would say such things about himself.

Bella, with a pale face, grabbed Caden's hand, her eyes filled with worry, as if she could collapse at any moment.

A deep voice mixed with a slight chill: "Today, Bella treated both families to a meal, and I didn't want to discuss irrelevant matters.'

Bella smiled faintly and said, "I'm fine, everyone go ahead and eat."

As she spoke, she glanced at Beatrice, her eyes filled with complexity. Beatrice pursed her lips and cast down her gaze.

She should not have come.

Beatrice lost her appetite, put down her fork, and withdrew her hand.

At that moment, Odin held her hand and looked directly at Xander.

so well. After all, a man who loses his wife loses everything."

This statement was said in a somewhat ambiguous manner.

As a marriage, both families must definitely be thoroughly investigated.

Odin must have known a thing or two about Xander's romantic affairs.

Sure enough, Xander's face was a mix of green and red, unable to hold his composure.

Odin raised an eyebrow and said, "Investing won't be a loss."

Beatrice laughed and reached out to shake his hand, silently saying thank you.

She no longer paid attention to that obscure and gloomy gaze.

Asher looked around and immediately understood.

He made a roundabout excuse and raised his glass, saying, "I am getting old, and I don't want to worry about the children's affairs anymore. After all, they are my own children, and I still trust his judgment." Xander was given a step down and Odin and Beatrice were also maintained.

Xander put on a dignified smile on his face, but inside, he was burning with anger.

But Asher had already said everything like this, so he couldn't say anything more.

I thought this little episode had passed, but to my surprise, Lucia, who had been silent all along, suddenly stood up.

She interrupted directly, "I think Sir Baldwin was actually right. Some things still need to be cautious." don't speak

girlfriend."

She instinctively glanced at Angie, who was holding a glass of wine and tasting it.

Angie glanced at her watch, nodded slightly, and tilted her head back to drink the liquid in her glass, assuming a spectator's posture.

Lucia looked at Asher and smiled, "Sir Soder, please don't misunderstand. Beatrice and I were actually colleagues. I was afraid that neither of you knew her, so I spoke up to remind you."

Monica stared blankly and said, "Wasn't it you and Mr. Soder who asked me to come? Someone from the Soder family said they wanted to have a meal with me, and they called in a hurry, I could only quickly get someone to do my hair, but when I arrived at the door, the waiter refused to

"I called, but you didn't answer."

Monica took out her phone and opened the call log.

box.

She thought for a moment and then looked at the waiter at the door.

The waiter could have explained, but he let Monica barge in, clearly on purpose.

Without waiting for her to ask, Angie stood up.

She politely offered her seat and said, "Mrs. Monica Baldwin has arrived, please sit here. Ms. Lindsey, why don't you invite your mother to sit down?"

Asher looked slightly surprised and said, "Mrs. Monica Baldwin? She was Ms. Lindsey's mother? So Ms. Lindsey..." Angie was even more surprised than Asher, looking at Odin in astonishment and saying, "Didn't Odin tell you? Ms. Lindsey is Mr. Ryan's stepdaughter in name, so she has to call Mr. Caden 'Uncle Caden'. But don't think too much about it, she doesn't even know who her biological father is." Asher and the other elders of the Soder Upon hearing this,

family furrowed their brows slightly.

They didn't mind that Beatrice had an ordinary identity, but such a complicated identity was indeed not very good.

Beatrice immediately explained, "I had already been with the Baldwin family..."

Before the words were finished, Angie seemingly interrupted.

"Ms. Lindsey, you were too impatient. You and Odin have only just started dating, and you couldn't wait to have your mother meet him. Did you forget that today's main characters are Bella and Mr. Caden? This has made things... difficult for everyone.

It sounds as if Beatrice wanted to force Odin to marry her.

"Beatrice, you can't always use the same method, can you? Oops... I'm sorry, I misspoke."

After Lucia finished speaking, she covered her mouth and looked as if she had accidentally said something wrong.

But the speaker had no intention, while the listener had intention.

Asher furrowed his brows and asked, "Lucia, what do you mean by that?"

Lucia reluctantly said, "I know I shouldn't gossip, but I heard from other colleagues that Beatrice had been financially supported by a wealthy man in the past. They tried to pressure her into marriage through public opinion, but it didn't work out. The Baldwin family intervened privately and took down the trending topic. There are also rumors that..."

"What did you say?" Asher asked, pressing for an answer.

Asher didn't jump to conclusions, but instead

Odin's face darkened slightly.

This matter was very complicated because it involved Beatrice's car accident and amnesia, which

couldn't be explained in just a few words.

"Dad, wait a moment, let me explain to you properly."

"Dear in-law, I am truly sorry for these matters that have made you laugh." Xander stood up and sighed

as he spoke.

In fact, every word Lucia said was acknowledged.

Beatrice and Monica were directly tied to the shame pillar.
