The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 47

Chapter 47:

Caden was jogging on the treadmill, fresh from a cardio session. His damp hair stuck lightly to his forehead, and the sheen of sweat made him look even more self-assured and undeniably attractive.

As he was focused on running, he didn't notice them.

Alicia quickly turned her head, lowering it as she said: Let's eat. Stop staring.

Still taking a moment to admire him, Monica finally asked: Alicia, you and Caden haven't seen each other in years. There can't be any resentment left, right.

Alicia remembered the recent meetings. There are still some left. He still hates me.

Monica sighed. Maybe we should think about looking for another lawyer.

Why

Monica decided to avoid making Alicia feel uncomfortable and got him off her back. It doesn't matter. I have spoken to my father and we will not be able to hire Mr. Benson.

Knowing that this could happen, Alicia nodded and said: It's okay. We'll think of something. Then he calmly returned to his food.

Monica's eyes once again wandered to the gym across the street.

Honestly, Caden's body is something else.

Alicia didn't respond to that. Instead, he turned his gaze to Caden.

His training clothes fit tightly around his broad shoulders and well-defined muscles, showing off his strength and giving a sense of security that seemed effortless.< /p>

His waist was slim, with firm muscles that added to his athletic appearance.

His long legs only enhanced the image, giving him a balanced and powerful presence.

Everything about his physique was almost impeccable, from above below.

As Alicia continued to admire him, Caden seemed to catch her eye. Then he looked directly at her.

Alicia felt her heart skip a beat and quickly looked away. He cleared his throat, trying to sound nonchalant. It's okay, I guess.

Monica leaned towards her and whispered: You know men like him always look so proper In all the photos that appear on the news, all buttoned up and serene. I bet someone like him is wild when he's out of the spotlight. What do you think?

Alicia stopped for a moment.

Soft

It wasn't the right word. His movements were nothing out of the ordinary.

But there was no denying that his strength was… overwhelming.

Monica smiled, and her eyes sparkled with mischief. I have heard that a man with a strong nose is usually well endowed. What do you think? How tall do you think she is?

Alicia was speechless once again.

Would she ever finish this conversation?

She rested her chin on her hand, refusing to reply. Monica murmured: Judging by his build, I'd say he's about this big.

She extended her hand in an exaggerated gesture.

Alicia blinked, completely surprised. It's ridiculous. It's not that big.

Monica laughed, realizing her own exaggeration.

But then she realized that Alicia had said something interesting. Squinting, she asked: Wait, how do you know it's not that big?

Alicia froze for a second.

She had measured it.

Just one assumption, he replied, blushing slightly. You've gone too far.

Fortunately, he managed to steer Monica away from the truth.

After all, who would suspect that she and Caden had slept together

Alicia took another bite of her food.

But for some reason, the food didn't taste so good anymore.

The plate of food was steaming, but a strange shiver ran down her spine. .

He had the strange sensation of that someone was watching her. When he turned to check, his eyes landed on a familiar figure by the door to a private room.

It was Joshua.

Recognition was immediate. He hadn't changed much physically, but there was something different about him. His eyes showed a strange mix of resentment and nostalgia. It was a contradiction she had never seen in him before.

Memories of the past flooded into her memory, but the things he had done over the years had eroded any feelings she had had. time. He didn't stop at it. With a calm and distant expression, he returned to his plate and continued eating.

Joshua had gone out to get something.

Joshua passed by the area and noticed Monica first, which he noticed. which made him stop for a moment before his eyes landed on Alicia.

Alicia was the same as before, with no signs of change.

However, her gaze had become much colder.

There was a clear feeling of disdain in his expression.

In response, Joshua gave a subtle smile.

He quickly diverted his attention and headed to his room without saying another word.

In her room, Lilliana was sitting comfortably.

She had intense pregnancy cravings and had asked for something especially tasty to eat. After consuming a large meal and feeling extremely thirsty, Joshua had just come out to bring her her favorite drink.

Lilliana immediately noticed a slight change in Joshua's behavior.

You're okay. , he asked. You ran into someone you recognize

Joshua looked down. No.

Since the incident, Lilliana had become more vigilant and suspicious.

Her actions also began to be unpredictable. He felt exhausted trying to handle her suspicions and preferred to keep her away from Alicia.

However, Lilliana's sharp instincts kept her on edge.

Have you seen Alicia around here, she asked bluntly.

Josué responded with a frown: Stop complicating things for yourself.

Convinced that he was hiding something, Lilliana replied: Answer me. Why are you so evasive? After everything that's happened, you're still thinking about her.

Joshua furrowed his eyebrows again.

He looked at her flat stomach and said: Lilliana, you're still in the first quarter. Stressing yourself out will only make things worse.

At his distant tone, Lilliana felt a sudden discomfort. She realized that she had been too demanding lately, and Joshua's patience was wearing thin.

His parents had just warned him that in his current situation, he was at a disadvantage and should be more patient.

p>

Everyone has a limit. And if she pushed him too hard, it would end badly for both of them.

To avoid this, she softened her approach, leaning into Joshua's embrace. It's okay, I won't ask more.

Joshua hugged her tightly.

At this moment, a loud commotion was heard outside. Joshua's instincts told him that Alicia was involved, so he got up to investigate.

As he had anticipated, a group of drunk men were harassing Alicia and Monica.
