Chapter 565
Chapter 565:
Her nose tingled with emotion as her voice softened.
“Maybe he’s right.
We’re not getting married anyway.
You marrying into the Moss family could solve a lot of unnecessary heartache.”
Caden’s heart tightened sharply at her words.
He didn’t blame Alicia for being angry with his uncle.
As an elder, Benedict had no business meddling in his personal affairs.
The thought of Alicia secretly wiping away her tears left Caden feeling uneasy.
“Where are you?”
Alicia asked, “Why? Just because your uncle didn’t hit me last time, now you want to take your frustrations out on me?”
Caden’s eyelid twitched at her tone.
“I’m not a fool, Alicia.”noveldrama
“You are a fool!” Alicia exclaimed.
“I told you I wouldn’t go back, but you insisted.
During dinner, your uncle wouldn’t stop ridiculing me, acting like I’m some cheap, shameless woman who can’t live without you.”
Caden replied slowly, choosing his words carefully.
“You can’t live without me.
That’s the truth.
No one else would dare touch you.”
Alicia suddenly raised her voice.
“In your dreams!” With that, she hung up the phone and angrily tossed it aside.
Monica, who was sitting beside her, immediately caught the phone.
“This is the latest model in a limited edition color, my dear.
You can’t just toss it around like that.
What if it gets chipped?”
Alicia’s anger flared even more at the sight of the phone Caden had bought her.
Her previous phone had broken, prompting her to buy a new one that very day.
Later, Caden sent over a gorgeous light green device that was simply irresistible.
The phone buzzed again.
Caden was calling her again.
Monica grinned and teased, “Aren’t you going to answer?” Alicia dismissed the calls a few times.
As Caden’s name flashed on the screen time and again, Monica couldn’t help but joke, “Wow! Even Mr.
Ward will call persistently to show his sincerity.
I expected a domineering CEO to say, ‘Alicia, I command you to come back to me immediately.
Otherwise, I’ll turn Warrington upside down and make everyone pay for it!'”
Alicia was at a loss for words.
Monica burst into laughter, and despite herself, Alicia couldn’t help but join in.
