Chapter 249 End up Here Again

Caden carried me straight into the car.

I was drenched from head to toe, my white dress clinging to me, outlining every curve.

“Rosaline, are you okay?” Caden swallowed, his Adam’s apple bobbing slightly. Then he took off his jacket and wrapped it around me.

“I’m fine. What are you doing here?” I asked.

I glanced at him sideways but didn’t press further.

Forget it. None of this mattered anymore.

Caden started the car.
