The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 212
Chapter 212:
Alicia hadn't expected him to take the matter so seriously, and for a moment, words failed her.
If he refused to accept her simple apology, then what did he want? A meal? Some other form of compensation? It didn't seem like Caden's style.
Before I could think about it, his deep, soft voice cut through the silence.
“Are you really sorry?”
Even over the phone, the weight of his tone sent a chill through her.
She felt dizzy, as if she were on the edge of a trap she hadn't seen coming.
“Yes,” he replied, albeit with some hesitation.
“But… even if I didn’t like you, it’s not like it would affect you, right?”
So shouldn't a verbal apology suffice?
Caden let out a low chuckle, but it was anything but amused.
“You say you’re sorry, but you back out so quickly.
”
At this Alice remained silent.
Guilt was gnawing at her, but pride made her insist on proving her sincerity.
“So… how do you want me to prove how sorry I am?”
His mockery echoed in her ear, making her shudder.
“Don’t you know that already?”
Alice froze.
In that instant, she understood exactly what he wanted.
Her first instinct was to hang up on him.
But Caden, calm as ever, added, “I won’t force you.
You don’t have to be so scared of me.
”
“Who says I’m afraid of you?” she snapped, though her voice shook enough to betray her.
“Even your breathing has changed.
”
Seeing herself exposed so easily, she instinctively held her breath, but his complicit silence only made things worse.
Caden, not wanting to waste time, got straight to the point.
“You don’t have to come to me.
Just give me an hour of your precious time and stay on the phone.
