Chapter 239:

Alicia was awake, looking at the ceiling.

She knew she had work in the morning and tried to force herself to sleep, but It was useless. His thoughts kept turning to one question: had Caden left because of Yolanda again

After tossing and turning in bed for an eternity, he finally gave up. She put on a coat and inadvertently headed to Caden's apartment.

When she arrived, Cade, the dog Caden had recently taken in, greeted her. Although Caden had made the effort to bring Cade into his life, his care had been rather perfunctory, strictly limited to the basics. The dog received his three meals a day, but no special treats or affection.

Alicia knelt down and gently pet Cade, combing his fur with her hands. He trimmed it carefully, making sure it was neat and short. To complete her new look, he tied a pink bow around her neck.

Cade seemed delighted with the change. He jumped up and down with joy, wagging his tail furiously, before settling into her arms with a contented sigh.

A soft smile graced Alice's lips as she hugged him, the simple moment filling her with joy. an unexpected warmth.

Finally, she lay down on the couch, with Cade curled up next to her, and fell into a deep, peaceful sleep that accompanied her all night.

While so much, Caden spent the night in the hospital.

Yolanda's condition was complicated; His health had been fragile since birth. With a weak immune system, even minor illnesses posed significant risks, and her health had been a constant source of anxiety for her parents.

Regina and Dorian had always meticulously cared for Yolanda, protecting her from every threat imaginable. . It was forbidden for even a slight cold breeze to touch her.

However, since Dorian had entrusted her care to Caden, Yolanda had already suffered two alarming episodes of coughing up blood.

By morning, his condition had finally stabilized. Dorian walked out of the hospital room, his usual composure intact, but his face was hard and serious.

Caden, you have to explain this to me.

Caden, who had deep respect for Dorian, he responded with quiet courtesy. Yolanda's sudden decline was completely unexpected. This is on me. When you are ready for discharge, I will personally escort you back to Averibon. He won't have to worry about any more business responsibilities.

Dorian's gaze darkened, his expression thoughtful and conflicted.

He admired Caden, his sharp mind, his strength, but also He was painfully aware of the deep unspoken affection Yolanda felt for him.
