The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 41

Chapter 41:

Alicia had suspected that Caden was the person Gerry had mentioned. Determined to act on her hunch, she bought the Viagra.

When she noticed Caden's stern look, she suppressed a silent laugh.

It was perfect.

It hit her. Realizing that he had chosen the ideal gift.

Maintaining a kind demeanor, he said: Knowing how particular you are, Mr. Ward, I made sure to choose the most expensive ones.

Gerry He couldn't help but laugh. You're the only one bold enough to give something like that to Caden, she said.

Alicia blinked and looked back at Caden.

She offered him a bright smile. Maybe it's a little presumptuous, but we're all pretty familiar by now. Practical gifts are the best, don't you think? You like it, Mr. Ward

Caden's face remained unreadable.

He stared at her for several seconds. Then he reached out and grabbed the bag. I like it. It's exactly what I need, he replied.

Alicia's smile faltered for a moment.

Instead of fearing that Caden might lose his temper, she was more concerned about his hidden intentions behind a friendly facade.

Who could predict the underhanded tricks he might use in retaliation

Without hesitation, Caden opened one of the boxes, took out two pills, and downed them with a sip of wine.

Alicia felt a sudden jolt of surprise.

Gerry looked at her in disbelief. Seriously, Caden You're really taking this.

Caden kept a stoic expression. The wine lingered on his lips, enhancing his dangerous appeal.

He swallowed and stared at Alicia. Miss Bennett, you have excellent taste. These fit very well.

A tingling came over Alicia when he looked at her. Her confidence evaporated, leaving her speechless. It looked like he had gotten into serious trouble.

Gerry was incredulous. He picked up the box and inspected it carefully.

There was no doubt. Without a doubt it was Viagra. He couldn't help but be amazed at Caden's audacity. You're amazing, Caden. The instructions recommend one pill a day, and you just took two at a time. You're not afraid of staying up all night.

Caden casually reached up and undid two buttons on his collar.

Alicia's eyes caught a glimpse of skin under the unbuttoned shirt. , and was attracted to his well-defined pecs.

She quickly looked away.

She tried to ignore him, but his voice broke through. Staying up all night may be a stretch, but five or six times isn't a problem.

Gerry leaned toward her curiously. It sounds like you know this from experience. When was your last time?

Caden let out a soft chuckle, making sure Alicia heard it. His heart raced in his chest. He picked up a bottle without checking its contents and began to pour. Caden realized what he was doing and spoke slowly. In a private theater.

His hand trembled and he was about to spill the contents. Gerry sat up in surprise. Wait, that was after you returned to the country.

Yes, the day I returned, Caden replied.

Wow, that's impressive! How many times has it happened to you? Gerry asked curiously.

Caden paused before answering.

Alicia could feel Caden's gaze. She felt as if a snake was staring at her, coiling around her and preparing to strike, but not intending to.

Five times Caden wondered aloud. Or there were six. Sweat formed on the palms of Alicia's hands as she raised the cup to her lips.

Alicia! Caden shouted sharply.

Alicia looked up abruptly, her face turning from pale to flushed.

What was she planning now? She intended to reveal everything to Gerry

Caden He kept his eyes fixed on her and said nonchalantly: That's wine you're going to drink.

She was paralyzed for a moment. Realizing this, he quickly put the glass down.

Gerry noticed her reaction and asked her: What's wrong with wine? You can't drink it.

She dried herself off. sweaty hands with knees and forced a smile. I am allergic to alcohol. I almost forgot.

Seriously, how could you forget something like that. Gerry commented. Even Caden remembers.

A sudden thought occurred to him. Wait a minute, Caden, how do you know that Alicia is allergic to alcohol?

Caden gave a slight smile. There was one time she drank too much and went crazy around me.

Beads of sweat began to form again on her forehead. He had dried them moments before.

He wished he would stop talking.

Gerry concentrated on his words. She went crazy around you What exactly did she do

Caden prepared to respond, but she quickly interrupted him. I really need some water. I'm very thirsty, Alice said urgently.

I'll have someone bring you some, Gerry offered.

However, Alice couldn't wait any longer.

He grabbed his chest and stood up. I'll go get some myself.

Without waiting for a response, she ran out of the room. Gerry looked confused. Why are you in such a hurry to drink water?

Caden was silent, but he smiled with satisfaction. He seemed to be in a good mood as he opened a bottle of wine.

How about a drink, Caden suggested.

Gerry accepted without hesitation.

He loved tasting wine. , but his low tolerance meant that, after a few drinks, he already felt dizzy.

Caden, on the other hand, remained clear-headed. From time to time she glanced at the door.

Alicia intended to leave immediately, but she needed to talk to Gerry about something.

After taking a moment to collect herself, she returned to the private room. .

The aroma of wine filled the air.

Gerry had just finished another glass. His cheeks were flushed and his eyes were glassy.

Seeing him in that state, Alicia asked with concern: Mr. Hopkins, are you okay.

Gerry wiped his face and said: Sure. that I'm fine I could drink all night and not get drunk.

Then he lay down, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

Alicia was speechless.

She turned away. slowly to look at Caden. It acts like this after only a small amount of alcohol. He's never been in trouble for it.

Caden took a sip of wine, shook it, and asked, What kind of trouble are you talking about?

You know, the kind of trouble? that happen when people drink too much.

Men can't act when they're drunk, he stated bluntly.

Alicia thought it was too direct a comment. He responded with a simple Oh and was silent.

But when it comes to women, who can say. Caden continued.

Then, he looked at her seriously and asked: Did you need to talk to Gerry about something?

Alicia had not planned to share her reason, but since he had just helped her, she chose to be courteous. I wanted to ask you to recommend a lawyer, he explained.

Caden put down his glass. I can't hear you from there.

She hesitated for a moment.

Caden pointed to the seat next to him. Come here and tell me, he said.
