Chapter 88:

Now, Alice was at her breaking point.

It was becoming increasingly difficult for him to think clearly.

Despite everything, he was still able to maintain consciousness.

“You don't have to do that. I didn't do anything to make you feel good. “You did it all,” he stammered.

Caden chuckled softly, his voice muffled against her.

“I appreciate you caring about me,” he said, pulling her close and inhaling deeply the scent of her hair. Alice felt paralyzed and too nervous to respond.

Caden then asked, “Do you hate him?”

Although the question was casual, his gaze burned with intensity.

It was like he wouldn't let her say yes, but he didn't seem worried if she did.

Alice found herself unable to lie, but she didn't dare admit the truth either, so she looked away to concentrate on something else.

Caden took the opportunity to insist.

"If the answer is no, then think of me when you can't sleep."

Think about him while doing what?

They both understood the implication.

However, they did not dare to say it out loud.

Alicia felt a wave of shame wash over her.

"Be quiet."

Once they were done, she didn't dare look at Caden and quickly found an excuse to head to the bathroom.

Caden leaned back in his chair, searching for a moment of respite.

He wasn't in the habit of smoking, so there were no cigarettes in the house. He closed his eyes, allowing himself to relax as he waited for his heartbeat to steady. His shirt was half unbuttoned, revealing a sheen of sweat on his muscled chest, which rose and fell with each breath.

After an eternity, Alice slowly emerged from the bathroom.
