The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 241:

Caden rubbed his chin, deep in thought.

Alice's celebration party?

He vaguely remembered her mentioning it once – she had promised to arrange a meeting once she settled in.

However, her busy schedule had always prevented her from making any concrete plans.

What had he said then?

When everything was settled, he would top her guest list.

He had even called him his main supporter.

Yet here he was, completely in the dark, while Gerry had apparently received an invitation.

Caden huffed in frustration.

He told Gerry curtly, “You don’t need to pick me up.

I’m busy.

”

Oblivious to the tension in his voice, Gerry lamented, “I’ve only just got this car, you know.

It’s the only one in Warrington.

There’s no money that can get you another one.

Cliff had to pull a lot of strings to get it.

Aren’t you even a little tempted to go for a drive?”

Caden pulled off his tie in exasperation.

“Why don’t you just drive your flashy car to the moon?”

Gerry was surprised.

“Why are you so irritated?”

Caden didn't bother to explain.

He ended the call abruptly, frustration simmering beneath his calm exterior.

Without hesitation, he quickly dialed Alicia's number, eager for answers.

On the other end of the line, a discord of sounds filled the background, but Alice's voice rang out, clear and cheerful.

"How are you?"

Hearing her casual tone, Caden couldn’t help but frown.

“You seem pretty busy, don’t you?”

“A little,” Alice replied casually.

“Aren’t you busy too? I’m surprised you found time to call me.

”

"Why would I be busy?" he replied, irritated.

Noticing his sharp tone, Alice preferred not to escalate the situation.

"I don't know, but I can tell you that I have a lot of things on my plate right now.
