Caden saw through Alice's little game. “Fooling them, are we?”

Alice looked at him and asked, "What else should I be doing?"

Caden chuckled at that. “Platonic marriages must be really interesting.”

"Why do you ask?"

"Out of curiosity, were you two talking about business?"

Before Caden could respond, Alicia stood up and walked over to him.

Caden's eyes followed her movements. He was caught off guard when she straddled his lap without hesitation. His eyebrows furrowed as he asked, “What do you think you’re doing?”

Alice remained silent and put her arms around her neck.

Up close, Caden's sharp, handsome features filled her vision. His chiseled face was flawless from any angle. He was even more striking than she had imagined. It was as if his appearance had been sculpted by the gods themselves. Driven by anger, Alicia placed a hand on her face and leaned in slowly, seeking out her lips.

Caden turned his head to the side. “What are you trying to do?”

Alice squeezed harder, refusing to give him a chance to dodge.
