Alicia had suspected that Caden was the person Gerry had mentioned. Determined to act on her hunch, she bought the Viagra.

When she noticed Caden's stern look, she suppressed a silent laugh.

Caden's face remained unreadable.

He stared at her for several seconds. Then he reached out and took the bag. “I like it. It’s exactly what I need,” he replied.

Alice's smile faltered for a moment.

Rather than fearing that Caden might lose his temper, she was more concerned about his hidden intentions behind a friendly facade.

Who could have predicted what underhanded tricks he might use in retaliation?

Alice felt a sudden jolt of surprise.
