Chapter 221:

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

She was completely immobilized.

Ever since she had discovered Monica's accident, a feeling of unease had lingered in her.

Now, despair weighed on her heart, each beat a painful reminder.

Joshua’s laughter was merciless.

He reached out and caressed her pale cheek before speaking to Yolanda.

“Did you just wake up from sleeping with Caden?”

Yolanda did not answer immediately.

Instead, she asked: "Who is it?"

Joshua continued, “Has Caden ever compared you two in bed? Has he ever told you who’s better, you or Alicia?”

Yolanda's surprise was palpable.

Before she could answer, she heard the door open behind her.

Panicking, she quickly ended the call and hid the phone under her pillow.

Caden, freshly showered, emerged.

His hair was still wet and his face expressionless.

“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.

Go back to your room.
