The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

“If Caden is really so powerful and influential, why would he even bother to come back and fight for his share of the Yates family inheritance?” Lilliana retorts.

“Well, what if the Ward family is actually more powerful than we think?” Cedric replied.

“Like I said, why would he bother? If that’s the case, wouldn’t it make more sense for him to stay with the Ward family and enjoy his current glory?” Lilliana snorted. “It even seems like he's spent a fortune just to deal with Joshua this time. What’s so special about Alicia? Why is Caden doing so much for her?”

Just then, a phone call interrupted their conversation.

He was Lilliana's former agent.

“Lilliana!” a female voice shouted as soon as the call connected. “Something big just happened. The accounts we used to attack Alicia on social media have been suspended and we can't contact the people using them. Word is someone has taken over.”

Lilliana frowned. “Do you have any idea who that is?”

“I'm afraid not,” the agent replied anxiously. “We're still looking into it. Considering the stir we caused on various online platforms, we're sure to get sued as soon as we're discovered. Also, someone posted recordings of your encounters with Joshua in various hotels, all while he was still married to Alicia. A lot of netizens are already calling you his mistress. “They’re making a lot of noise as we speak.”

Lilliana was furious.

It had to be Alicia again, it couldn't be anyone else! That bitch had gone for Joshua first, and now she was coming for Lilliana. Alicia was trying to ruin them one by one, that scheming bitch!

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Cedric was even more furious than Lilliana. “What the hell have you done to that woman?” I demanded in a thunderous voice.

Lilliana hung up and threw the phone aside in anger. “That bitch, Alicia, she deserved it! I just put her in her place; that's what she deserves! How was I supposed to know that everything was going to blow up one day?”

He turned to his father and quickly changed his tone. “You have to help me, Dad!”
