Chapter 199:

? ? ? ? ?

A wave of anger washed over Alice, tempting her to unleash a torrent of curses.

He caught himself and instead landed a hard slap across Caden's face.

Immediately, Caden's features darkened and his expression turned stormy.

She was breathing heavily. “Is this your way of letting off steam? It actually feels quite liberating!”

Caden raised his head and looked at her coldly. Blood stained his thin lips, giving him a vampiric appearance.

The disturbing sight immediately cooled Alice's anger, replacing it with a hint of fear.

He recoiled slightly as he noticed the red mark on her pale cheek. Since he had already hit her, he no longer feared the consequences. Swallowing, he said, “If you're angry, hit me back or call the police. It’s all the same to me.”

Caden looked away, looking past her.

Alice turned and saw Gerry in his car, leaning out of the window with his eyes wide, staring in disbelief.

It was clear to her that Gerry had witnessed everything. Determined to leave Caden to his confusion, she straightened her attitude, bowed her head, and walked away.

He headed towards the car where the male passenger was waiting. Gerry jumped out of the car and confronted Caden.

“Fuck! “Caden, what are you doing?” she exclaimed, looking at the marks on Caden's face.

Caden responded with an icy look.
