The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback -
Chapter 127
Chapter 127:
Caden's expression hardened.
Alicia paused for a moment, and then explained: When I was in college, I went for a checkup, and the doctor complimented me during the breast exam.
A male doctor asked Caden.
Of course not. That would be inappropriate, don't you think. Alicia responded.
Caden's expression seemed to relax a little.
He adjusted his clothes and began to recount the events of the day in a serious tone.
I should help Gina What do you think, he asked.
Caden was grateful that she asked his opinion. It made her feel like she trusted him.
Do you want to help her, she asked.
Yes, Alicia said, making it clear that she sympathized with Gina. Harley is the only family he has. It's very sad.
Then help her, Caden responded. She's a better option than Rachel anyway.
Alicia let out a sigh of relief and smiled.
I should head to the hospital. Harley is still waiting to have surgery, he said. I will bear the expenses. You take care of Randolph and make him talk.
When she tried to get up, Caden pulled her back.
He guided her hand somewhere dangerous.
When do you think? take care of this, he asked.
Alicia quickly removed her hand, feeling the heat of his demand.
We'll see, he responded. As it was broad daylight, I was in no mood to continue. Take less medication and try to get proper rest.
Caden didn't respond.
With Harley's life in danger, Alicia didn't waste any more time. He immediately set out in search of Gina.
To keep his identity hidden from Lilliana's people, he had Caden create a fake philanthropist persona to donate the funds for Harley's surgery. Alicia didn't show up at the hospital. She stayed throughout the operation, although she did not make her presence known.
When it finally became dark, the operation ended and Harley was carried out on a stretcher.
Gina rushed to approach. Doctor, how's Harley?
Fortunately, the operation was done on time. She's out of danger, the doctor said.
Gina's legs buckled, and she began to cry.
From the corner, Alicia breathed a sigh of relief. By the time Gina settled Harley into her room, it was already late.
She hesitated for a long time before deciding to approach Alicia.
The night air was cold, and Alicia felt cold. He rubbed his fingers to warm them. How's Harley, she asked.
Gina looked at her for a moment.
I'll pay you back for the medical expenses in installments. Thank you for your help, he said with a voice full of gratitude.
Upon hearing this, Alicia couldn't help but feel a slight pang of disappointment.
It was understandable. Siding with Alicia meant opposing Lilliana. If Gina decided to accept his help, she would basically be going against Lilliana.
For Gina, that could have serious consequences.
There is no need to pay me back. It was just a donation, says Alicia. I'm glad the operation went well. That's the only thing that matters.
After a brief silence, Alicia added: Now I'm leaving. You should rest.
Gina's eyes filled with tears. Mrs. Bennett, please stop this. The Green family is too powerful, and Mr. Yates is ruthless. It's not worth it.
Alicia laughed softly. I'm not doing this to earn it. I do it to survive.
When Alicia left, Gina stood in the cold hallway, crying silently.
It was true that she was afraid.
< p>Because of that, she couldn't help Alicia.Gina hated Lilliana too, but she had a sick sister to take care of. She couldn't afford to get in trouble, or worse, lose her job.
When her legs went numb, Gina finally returned to the living room.
She had barely sat down when the knock came. to the door.
He expected it to be the doctor, but was surprised to find a delivery man instead.
The man handed him an expensive meal. Gina looked at her confused. I didn't order anything.
Mrs. Bennett ordered it for you, the delivery man explained.
Gina's heart sank. She thanked him while holding the box.
After leaving the hospital, Alicia decided to visit Monica. To lift her spirits, Monica took her to a newly opened themed cafe where male models dressed as valets served customers.
Butlers asked Alicia, apparently confused.
Yes, valet, Monica responds enthusiastically. A bunch of male models dressed as valets, serving us. We can eat, drink and enjoy your company.
Alicia was momentarily speechless before deciding to leave.
As she turned around, she accidentally collided with a valet who was carrying a small cake.
The valet held it gently. She had curly hair, a charming smile, and eyes that sparkled. Be careful, madam, he told her.
Alicia was momentarily stunned. She couldn't help but look at his face.
Monica laughed. They're not bad, right.
Alicia smiled weakly. They must have cost quite a bit, he said, observing the tall, well-built figure of the valet. You can tell by its appearance. The male models in the clubs are usually expensive.
It is a newly opened store and they have given me a discount. It's not that expensive, Monica said, pulling Alicia. Come on, it's just a bit of lighthearted fun. Nothing serious.
Monica dragged Alicia inside.
Aside from the attractive valets, the food was also impressive.
The valets were attentive, accommodating easily to the preferences of each guest. If they sensed interest, they flirted a little; If not, they simply focused on serving the food and drinks.
Alicia only touched a few hands and touched a couple of faces, nothing more.
After eating, a valet greeted her. He kindly escorted her to the door.
If you have enjoyed my company, you can request me next time, he said, writing his name on the palm of his hand. I hope to see you again.
Alicia felt a little shy. Sure.
He said those words even knowing he wouldn't come back.
Who could resist that kind of charm
Seeing that they had chemistry, Monica cleared her throat. and made up an excuse. Alicia, I have to go. Let me know when you get home.
He winked at Alicia, subtly suggesting that she not hold back.
Alicia pretended not to notice and simply said goodbye.
< p>Not far away, the window of a sleek Maybach rolled down, revealing a striking face.Caden leaned on his hand, smirking as he watched the fascination of Alicia.
