Chapter 175

Chapter 175:

Alicia settled down at the table and started eating breakfast. Caden, looking serious, pulled up a chair and joined her.

When he picked up his fork, Alicia slapped his hand away. You think you can just eat. If you're hungry, make something yourself.

Caden was momentarily speechless. It was the first time someone showed him such contempt. His pride was too great to swallow.

He leaned back, crossing his arms, and fixed his gaze on her. Joshua may not be able to get his hands on that two hundred million dollars, but he's sure to find other ways to finance his business. You want me to ask you for money.

Alicia stopped chewing. The offer was tempting. He looked at him carefully. I have some funds, but he would really grovel before me.

I have my ways, Caden replied, his short words carrying weight.

She trusted Caden could handle it. Imagining Joshua begging amused her, dissolving her irritation.

She slid her plate toward him. Forward. Eat.

Caden didn't move. No, thanks. I need my omelette.

Always flexible, Alicia stood up. I'll prepare it now. A smile spread across Caden's lips. But you said you had little time.

Wait, Alice replied, quickly getting to work. Meanwhile, Caden calmly sipped his coffee and ate his sandwich.

When Alicia returned with the omelette, she found the table empty. She looked around confused. You didn't want an omelette.

I've changed my mind.

Caden used a napkin to wipe his mouth and left the room.

Alicia clenched her jaw. You ask for an omelette, I make it for you, and now you refuse to eat. What's wrong?

As Caden put on his coat, he nonchalantly responded: Our agreement never specified that I had to have an omelet for breakfast.

He just smiled. I'm always a jerk.

Turning to the tail-wagging puppy, he called out to him. Come here. You're not going to accompany me.

Still angry, Alicia protested. Why does the puppy have to say goodbye to you? You can't give him orders.

You need my help or not. Caden responded coldly.

Alicia was speechless. He moved quickly, picking up the puppy. Go away, she snapped.

Caden, who had been in a bad mood all night, felt his spirits lift as she left.

Once Ciara arrived in Warrington , he settled in quietly, making sure not to disturb Caden. Caden made time to visit her and hired maids and a driver to take her.

I'll get you bodyguards in the next few days, he added, taking off the blood pressure monitor, checking the readings - all normal - and handing it to the maid nearby. .

Ciara watched him carefully. You seem to like the local cuisine.

Caden realized that she was searching for information, but he preferred not to reveal anything about Alicia, not wanting to give Ciara false hope.

I have homework. to attend to, so I'm leaving now, he said. Tomorrow I'll be busy, but the day after tomorrow I'll visit you.

Ciara hesitated, then spoke: Yolanda contacted me. He's aware that I'm in Warrington for the long term and wants to look after me.

Caden deadpanned: That's your business. Handle it as you see fit.

But she's coming for you, Ciara stated dryly. Naturally, I want your opinion. Who will be The woman you are currently with or her.

It's your decision, Caden responded, his voice indifferent.

Ciara gave a knowing smile. So, there's someone else here with you.

Caden paused briefly. Then, raising an eyebrow, he asked: When did I imply that?

You didn't give me a direct answer when I asked you to choose. It's obvious that you feel guilty, Ciara said.

You misunderstood me.

Caden stood up and indicated to the maid: Let her rest a little and then take her to enjoy the music. . Make sure she stays busy.

Ciara was speechless.

Going down the stairs, Caden got into his car and asked Hank: Alicia has contacted you.< /p>

Hank looked confused. Why would Mrs. Bennett contact me?

Caden remained silent.

They had not spoken since their disagreement earlier in the day, and with the approach of tomorrow, he He asked if she had secured the invitation. Mr. Wade did not know her, and the guests were notable figures. Who Could He Ask for Help

Then Hank remembered: We tried the proposal that Ms. Bennett presented the other day, and the response has been quite favorable. We're just waiting for your go-ahead to begin mass production and launch.

Caden raised an eyebrow. She certainly has a gift for this.

Hank nodded with a smile, saying, Miss Bennett sure has a gift.

When Alicia was in school, everyone He understood her capabilities.

That night, when Caden returned to the apartment, he found Alicia busy in the study. At first, it didn't bother her, but when midnight approached and she still hadn't gone to bed, his concern got the better of him and prompted him to knock on the study door.

Alicia quickly covered her eyes. papers from his desk and looked up, his eyes red and tired. Yes

Caden was at the door. Once a day. It's time.

Alicia responded coldly: I'm on my period.

That's how Caden entered. Let's go see it.

Quickly, Alicia said, Maybe we could do it twice tomorrow instead.

No.

How come you can do it twice? times a day, but I can't delay it. Alice replied. If you're feeling uneasy, why don't you go for a walk. Or, if that's not enough, I can arrange a home delivery.

Caden was speechless. His expression hardened and, without saying another word, he abruptly left the room.
