The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 352:

For a second, Alicia froze, her breath catching in her throat.

Then, with a stubborn tilt of her chin, she turned away, quickening her pace.

But Caden wasn’t one to be ignored.

He caught up to her easily, his presence commanding as he said in a low voice, “Alicia, let’s talk.”

Without responding, Alicia attempted to step aside, trying to bypass him.

But Caden moved with her, blocking her path without touching her.

His broad chest stood like an immovable fortress in front of her.

She inhaled deeply, tilting her head up to meet his intense gaze.

“What do you want? Just say it and be done.”

“It’s freezing.

Let me take you home first,” Caden said, his voice steady as he slid his coat off and gently draped it over her shoulders.

“Are we really that close?” Alicia’s voice turned sharp as she brushed his hand away, her cool tone matching the biting wind.

Caden’s eyes darkened, frustration simmering beneath his calm exterior.
