Chapter 221:

Hearing Yolanda's voice, Alicia froze, instinctively turning off the screen.

“Why are you in my room?” he asked, clearly irritated.

After arriving at Averibon, they had booked two suites, with Yolanda’s next door.

Yolanda hesitated, but did not admit her true intentions.

She lied, saying, “I noticed something was not right and I wanted to discuss it with you.

Caden tightened his grip on his robe, his tone sharp.

“Whatever it is, it can wait until tomorrow.
