Caden was momentarily speechless.

He looked at her and asked, “What are those?”

Alice turned to a drawer, rummaging through it before pulling out a pair of black pants.

Alice gently took his arm. “Age is not on your side, and style won't keep you warm. These are light. They don't bulk up. You look like you’re wearing nothing, but they’re incredibly warm.”

Caden stepped back. “I can't use these. Get rid of them.”

Alice replied with a smile: “He already has his clothes. “You have to put on yours.”

Caden shrugged dismissively. “Do what you want with them.”
