The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 42:

Alice decided to be direct. “What exactly are you looking for?”

Caden remained calm, his lover as distant as ever. “What is it you want to chase me?” I have asked.

For a moment, Alice was speechless.

This infuriating man was playing along. He acted like he was the one being pressured.

Alice wasn't going to fall for his trick. "I'll stay here. If you can't hear well, I'll speak louder."

Caden leaned back with a relaxed posture. “In that case, let’s talk about the favor you owe me from earlier.”

She looked at him in surprise.

It took her a moment to recall the incident. That day, Caden had lent her a jacket when her period started unexpectedly. Back then, he had mentioned that she owed him.

Naturally, Alice knew that he wouldn't ask her for something simple.

This was the moment she had been anticipating. Accepting that she couldn't avoid it, Alice asked, "So, what do you have in mind?"

“Are you afraid of me?” Caden asked directly.

That question hits harder than any approach I could have taken.

Alice hesitated, but refused to let her guard down. “It's not about fear. You’re a pervert and no one in their right mind would take a risk with you,” she replied.

He wore a sly smile that didn't reach his eyes. "So it seems you like getting close to a pervert, Miss Bennett."

Alice was overcome with anguish. “How can you say something like that out loud?” she exclaimed.

He looked at Gerry, who was still unconscious. Caden knew that nothing could wake Gerry once he had drunk.

Without missing a beat, he continued, “It's just a bit of adult fun between us. If you’re curious, I can tell you more details.”
