Chapter 41:

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.

It was perfect.

Maintaining a gentle demeanor, he said, “Knowing that you are so particular, Mr. Ward, I made sure to choose the most expensive ones.”

Gerry couldn't help but laugh. "You're the only one bold enough to give Caden something like that," he said.

Alicia blinked and looked back at Caden.

She offered him a bright smile. “I may be a little presumptuous, but we're all pretty familiar with each other by now. Practical gifts are the best, don't you think? Do you like it, Mr. Ward?”

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?

Without hesitation, Caden opened one of the boxes, took out two pills, and drank them with a sip of wine.

Alice felt a sudden jolt of surprise.

A tingle ran through Alice as he looked at her. Her confidence evaporated, leaving her speechless. It looked like she had gotten herself into serious trouble.
