The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 31:

As Alicia and Caden approached the restaurant entrance, they saw Gerry coming out. He stood right between them and asked, “Did you guys run into any problems on the way here?”

Caden replied nonchalantly, “They took care of everything.”

Gerry still seemed a little uneasy as he pressed on. “Did you really find something? Thank goodness you went to check it out. But why were you so anxious to find Alice at that time?”

Caden paused for a moment, casting a quick glance at Alicia.

"I lost something and needed to check the locker room. It's an apartment," he explained.

"What the hell?" Alice muttered to herself.

She could guess what he meant by that. “Caden, you’re crazy,” he growled.

Gerry frowned, confused. “What are you talking about?” To flathead? What is that exactly?”

Alice remained silent, choosing not to answer.

Caden smiled slightly, clearly enjoying the exchange.

Once they entered the private room, Alicia turned to Gerry and asked, “Lilliana had a major incident today. As her boss, why didn’t Caden do anything about it?”

Gerry laughed at his question. “Caden bought the company Lilliana works for fun. He’s a laid-back boss who doesn’t stress about things.”

"But with such a great loss, don't you care at all?" Alice persisted.

“A loss?” Gerry nearly burst out laughing. “You've been arguing with Caden for so long and you still don't get it.”

Alice's curiosity increased. "Lilliana is now under your supervision. Their interests are tied together. How is it possible that there are no losses involved?"
