Alicia hurt her accusation at him, clearly frustrated by his actions. “Even an animal needs rest. You didn’t let me have one that night!”

Caden replied calmly, “Animals rest and continue the next day. “You’ve had a whole week.”

In a stern voice Alice replied, "Are you really comparing me to an animal now?"

Caden didn't respond. This conversation had taken a strange turn because of him. Used to handle these kinds of discussions, he knew better than to take things any further. I have decided to stay still.

When he didn't respond, Alice persisted, "So you finally understand how wrong you were, do you?"

Caden just shook his head. “Technically, I haven't done anything wrong according to the agreement. But I’ve learned that sometimes it’s smarter to admit guilt.”

Alice blinked in surprise. What did he mean? Was he referring to her experience with other women?

Trying to maintain her composure, she said, “I thought you were more of the controlling type when it came to relationships.”

Caden smiled weakly, his expression softening. It was clear he was thinking of someone else. “I wouldn't dare be like that. He’s a nervous wreck.”

It was the first time Alice had seen him smile like that. Whoever he was thinking of seemed to leave him both frustrated and amused.

Alice wanted to make fun of him. He was such a self-assured man, and yet a woman had outdone him.

As she tried to smile, she realized her lips were stiff. She rubbed her cheeks and quickly looked away, trying to avoid his gaze. “I need to review the agreement. Some parts of it are unreasonable.”
