Chapter 214:

Alicia was surprised when Caden started a conversation with her.

He raised his stiff head and managed a forced smile.

“I’m inviting my client to a business dinner.

Caden glanced at her from the corner of his eye.

He could feel the distance she put between them.

Her unfinished business made Yolanda's presence even more awkward, leaving little to say.

Alicia was relieved that Caden didn't make any inappropriate comments in that environment.

However, she couldn't ignore Yolanda's intense gaze.

Yolanda's eyes were piercing, as if she wanted to see through Alicia.

Alicia was unsure of the nature of Caden and Yolanda's relationship, but she was sure that Yolanda had feelings for him.

When the elevator reached the top floor, Alice deliberately stayed late to let them off first.

Yolanda instinctively tugged on Caden's sleeve.

She then turned and offered a sweet, harmless smile as she said goodbye to Alicia's assistant.

Meanwhile, her eyes lingered for a moment on Alicia's face.

Alice stared back at him emotionlessly.

After a few steps, Yolanda withdrew her hand.

This action helped her avoid any unpleasant words from Caden.

She then asked casually, “Caden, do you know the old lady from the elevator earlier?”

Caden didn't respond directly.

Instead, he commented, "He's younger than you.

"

This momentarily took Yolanda by surprise.
