Chapter 219:

On the third day, Caden left for Averibon with Yolanda to attend a scientific conference.

A group of paparazzi caught them together in the airport cafeteria.

They were photographed as the perfect couple, and the news quickly became a trending topic again.

Alicia came across the news and clicked on the photo.

Amid the snowy winter streets, Caden wore a black coat and his gold-framed glasses gave him an air of sophistication and attractiveness.

Around his neck he wore his familiar scarf.

She stopped, momentarily stunned.

He was still wearing the scarf she had given him.

Why did he keep wearing it?

He didn't understand her reasons, but he decided it was best not to think about it.

When they were together, she had often found him exasperating, but now, apart, anything connected with him aroused unexpected emotions in her.

She couldn't help but feel affected.

Shaking off her thoughts, she returned her focus to her work, determined to distract herself.

Time passed quickly, but Monica was still nowhere to be seen.

Half an hour earlier, Alice had tried to call Monica, but she didn't pick up.

She assumed Monica would be exhausted and catching up on sleep, so she didn't call again.

Instead, she simply booked a table at Monica's favorite restaurant.

Alicia dialed Monica's number again.

After a long wait, someone finally picked up.

Alicia sighed in relief.

“Monica, are you awake?” she asked.

An unfamiliar voice replied, “He’s still unconscious.
