Chapter 5:

Alice's nerves tense like a spring.
That voice…
Her disordered thoughts blurred into chaos, but one thing broke through the haze: Joshua's calm statement.
“Alicia and I have been married for two years. She cares about me, so we kept it a secret. We went straight to the registry, without ceremony. “You were busy abroad at the time, so we didn’t bother you.”
Caden raised an eyebrow, his voice laced with venomous mockery.
"Oh, so she's my sister-in-law."
The way he spat out the words “sister-in-law” seemed more like a slap than a title, leaving no doubt of his contempt for her.
Alice could feel the underlying mockery in every syllable.
And all thanks to her supposed husband, Joshua.
Her hand was shaking as she grabbed a tissue and wiped her hand vigorously, as if to cleanse herself of its filthy touch.
“It seems Alice is a bit of a germaphobe,” Caden observed, his tone a casual jab at her displeasure.
Joshua's expression darkened and the tension between them increased. He didn't expect her to humiliate him like this.
"I seem to have spoiled her too much," he muttered, his voice low and tight with irritation.
Caden's eyes flashed with a dangerous glint.
"If it is a serious illness, she should receive treatment. It could affect her role as a mother. You know how much our father has wanted to have a grandchild."
Hearing this, something flickered in Joshua's eyes.
Even though Alice, his wife, was right next to him, he went ahead and lied through his teeth.
“Thanks for your concern, Caden, but I have some good news for Dad. “I just haven’t gotten around to telling him yet.”
Caden's smile deepened, his gaze shifting to Alicia, who was about to end the charade. She silently excused herself and walked away, the sensual sway of her hips catching Caden's attention.
“How far along are you?” he asked significantly. “You don't look pregnant.”
