The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 546:

The temperature seemed fine, but a chill had crept down her spine.

Rubbing her arms, Alicia checked her phone, unsure how many times she’d done so already—still, no message from Caden.

It was Caden.

Alicia’s heart skipped a beat, but she took her time before answering.

“What?” she snapped, her tone sharp.

Hank, who was holding the phone on speaker for Caden, blinked in surprise at her tone and glanced at his boss.
