Chapter 128:

? ? ? ? ?

Alice was shocked for no apparent reason.

The valet noticed her reaction and took off his jacket, putting it over her shoulders.

Alice felt uncomfortable and gave him back the jacket. "I don't want you to be cold," she said.

“It's okay. I’m not cold,” the valet replied. “You can give it back to me next time we meet.”

However, Alice insisted on giving it back.

At that moment, her phone ranged from inside her bag. Seeing that it was Caden, she felt a surge of anxiety and quickly gestured to the valet to be quiet.

The valet agreed.

Alice stepped back before answering, "What's wrong?"

“Are you done?” Caden asked flatly.

"I'm still busy," Alicia replied. "I'm at the hospital right now."

Caden narrowed his eyes at Alicia, who was standing by the road with the man's jacket slung over her shoulders. His tone turned sharp. “Why are you still there? It’s late and you haven’t left yet.”

“I’m just taking care of the things I mentioned before,” Alice replied. She looked at her watch, anxious not to give herself away. “What do you need? Just say the word.”

"Nothing," he replied.

“So why did you call?” Alice replied, sounding rather annoyed. “I'm busy right now.”

Caden let out a cold sneer. “Do you have plans for tonight?”

Alice knew instantly what he meant.

She thought it was too late and didn't want to deal with him. "Yes, I'm planning on spending the night in the hospital."

Caden's face turned grim.

"Alice, look across the street," he said.

Alice frowned. “What?” she asked before looking up.
