The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 165:

Monica blinked curiously, her expression clearly showing confusion. “Alice, how come you don't seem worried at all?”

Alice replied without hesitation: "What is there to worry about?"

“You mentioned that Joshua always finds a way. I've been thinking about it and you're right. He seems to always be one step ahead, and he probably has some backup plan. Does that mean everything we’ve done so far will come to nothing?”

Alice smiled. “But I’ve almost gathered all the evidence I need. Even if I make it public, it won't change anything. “I’ll still bring him down.”

Seeing how calm and collected Alicia was, Monica felt her own anxiety ease.

Unable to resist, Monica complimented her. “You've changed a lot lately. You’re much more serene and assertive.”

Alice felt a little nervous, with a hint of shyness. “Is it because of him?” Monica asked curiously.

Alicia was shocked. She immediately knew who Monica was referring to. She parted her lips, ready to explain, but the words seemed tangled in her thoughts.

How was I going to introduce Caden?

Their relationship was strictly contractual. As soon as Joshua fell, their relationship would be over. “Maybe,” Alice replied, her uncertainty palpable.

Lately he had found calm.

Caden was undoubtedly the reason for this new sense of security.

The evidence she had seemed gathered trivial in the face of the influence of these formidable players. If Joshua decided to escalate the situation, she could be in serious trouble. However, with Caden as her steady support, the situation felt totally transformed.

Monica smiled at her, deciding not to try further. As long as Alicia was happy, nothing else really mattered.
