The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 204

Chapter 204:

Alicia was relieved that her physical condition remained good, as the menstrual pains quickly disappeared. He gathered his strength and continued teaching his students with dedication for the next few days. At the same time, she was busy preparing for the Christmas play.

The school had high expectations and Alicia worked hard, often rehearsing with her students until late. That afternoon, after her last student had left with her parents, Alicia decided to stay in the empty piano room, playing a piece just for her.

The melodious tones of the piano seemed to gnaw at her heart, like a beast In the end, she felt only emptiness.

When the music ended, she sat in silence, deep in thought. That's when Monica called her.

Alicia took several deep breaths to calm down. Alicia, it's too late, Monica said quietly. I'm at the school door. Get out!

Alicia looked at the time and saw that it was already after ten. The Warrington winter was bitingly cold.

Seeing Monica, Alicia took her hands and smiled. Well, you feel warmer now

Monica's hands were cold from waiting outside so much. He laughed as Alicia warmed them up for him. You had me so worried.

Alicia feigned confusion. What have I done

Monica looked at her intently.

In a few days, Alicia had visibly lost weight. At first glance he did not seem to have changed, but his intense dedication in the classroom revealed an underlying problem. Monica could see that Alicia had really fallen in love with Caden.

Come on, I'll treat you to something delicious, Monica suggested, linking arms with her. I bought a car! I've covered it in shiny film and even embedded pink diamonds in the license plate. You're the first one to be the co-pilot with me.

Alicia took a look at the car and couldn't help but praise its impressive appearance.

That night, Monica kept the conversation going non-stop. He didn't stop talking the entire time. Alicia sensed that Monica might be hiding something, so she humored her as best she could. However, secrets cannot be kept forever.

While they were having dinner, the restaurant screen showed the news. That same day, Caden had returned to the city and had been seen at the airport with a young woman. The camera had not captured the woman's face, but her bearing denoted wealth and status. She was close to Caden, very comfortable.

The series of photos focused on them. Caden took her hand as they walked down the steps, then dragged her to the car. Their closeness was undeniable. Although the photos were blurry because they were candid photos, this blurring somehow made them seem even more intimate.

Alicia diverted her attention and continued eating, pretending that she hadn't noticed anything. Monica looked at her with concern.

Alicia, you're okay

Alicia reassured her: Caden and I were never serious. We were just using each other. That was it. I'm fine.

Monica, who had never experienced a romantic relationship, wasn't sure how to comfort Alicia. He took out a card and gave it to her.

This is all the money I've saved, plus some help from my father. Use it to start your business, Monica insisted firmly. I know you've been focusing on this lately. You can't say no to me.

Alicia accepted the card, her eyes filled with tears. Caden had selected the ideal site in Warrington, prepared all the documents and even found clients and investors. But she had rejected everything. She was determined to build something from scratch.

The initial phase of starting a business would be difficult, but Alicia was determined to face any obstacle. I didn't want to bring Monica into this. I will return it to you as soon as possible, he promised.

Monica was not happy with that. Don't worry about paying me. If I need money, I'll ask my family.

It was quite late when Monica finally dropped Alicia off at the hotel.

Be sure to call me if you need anything, Monica reminded her. These days I am available at any time.

Alicia nodded. Have a safe trip.

Outside the hotel, a figure lurked in the shadows, making a phone call.

Mr. Yates, you are on high alert. I can't get close to her at all.'

Meanwhile, Joshua was on the phone, keeping an eye on the live news. The news about Caden was in the headlines.

Joshua smiled contentedly. Why the rush? Give it time.

With Caden involved with someone new, Alicia was now in the background. How long could she fend for herself? Rushing her death would only ruin the fun.

Joshua ordered: Leave her alone for now. Wait for my signal.

Shortly after finishing the call, Lilliana came in.

She scoffed: You found out.

Joshua, reclining in his chair, was enjoying himself. of a massage. He seemed renewed.

I have investigated that woman. He is from the Moss family, an excellent match for Caden. This is not a casual matter.

Lilliana scoffed. Alicia was nothing more than a brief adventure for a few months. I must have overestimated her. So that's your point of view! How dare he be so arrogant before.

Lilliana grew impatient. We can act now

Joshua's gaze remained inscrutable.

There is someone else who deserves to die more than her, he said coldly.

Who asked Lilliana, intrigued.

Monica, Joshua responded, with an icy tone. The drug that Alicia used on me was given to me by her.

Upon hearing this, Lilliana's smile turned evil.
