Chapter 506:

Alicia glanced at the passenger seat and noticed two personnel files.

She recognized them immediately—mercenaries.

“What’s going on?” she asked.

Hank, always transparent with her, explained.

Alicia’s mind raced.

“How’s the situation with Mrs.

Ward progressing?”

Hank answered, “Corey hasn’t made a move yet, so it’s hard to predict.”

Alicia knew she could never accept Corey’s proposition.

She felt adrift, like a piece of wood bobbing uncertainly on water.

For the first time, she deeply missed Caden.

It wasn’t just the emptiness of missing him—she realized that he was the only one who could manage this current situation.

Alicia glanced at the mercenary files and quickly formed a plan.

The two mercenaries, now hired as Caden’s bodyguards, would be traveling to Terriland.

Alicia intended to meet with them personally, hoping to convince them to include her in their plans.
