The sound of the door opening woke Alice from her light sleep. She rubbed her eyes and looked up. “Why are you here?” she asked.
Caden, still suffering from a hangover-induced migraine, didn't respond immediately. The sleepless night he'd spent, coupled with an empty day, had left him in a bad mood. You'd say he was smoking.
"When did you get back?" he asked, his voice clipped.
"A few minutes ago. I was just about to fall asleep," Alice confessed softly.
Caden's expression hardened even further as he silently changed his shoes and went to wash his hands. The atmosphere in the room felt cold and unwelcoming. Alicia could practically feel her impatience in the air. Confusion washed over her, but exhaustion got the better of everything else.
After jumping from the second floor the night before and injuring her ankle, she spent hours in the hospital, waiting for the swelling to subside. The night had felt endless, and with nowhere else to turn, she found herself back here, unsure of what to do. Alicia had assumed Caden would stay at the office all night and hadn't expected him to return at seven in the morning. She watched him silently as his back was turned.
After washing his hands, he poured himself a glass of water. His tall stature radiated a harsh, unapproachable air. After finishing the water, he walked over and took off his coat.
Not wanting to leave any room for misunderstanding, Alice spoke up. “I went to the Yates mansion yesterday…”
Before she could say more, Caden threw the coat on the couch. It was then that she caught the faint scent of alcohol.
And then there was something else: a woman's perfume. This fact surprised her. Had he stayed out all night because he was with another woman?
Caden began to unbutton his shirt without saying a word. "SW? What happened next?”
