The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 1053:

As Caden finally allowed himself to relax, the car started moving. But just as he did, Marlon emerged from the shadows, pulling his new fling back again. She cried and pleaded, swearing her innocence.

Unlike Caden, Marlon wasn’t interested in being merciful. He resorted to brutal methods, forcing the woman to reveal everything Caden had asked. She spilled the entire story without hesitation.

As Marlon listened, his mind started piecing everything together. Caden and Corey didn’t get along, so why would Caden ask about a bodyguard?

Later that evening, after dinner, Caden returned to his hotel. He dialed Alicia’s number, swiping his card to enter the room. But as soon as he stepped inside, he froze. The sharp, unmistakable smell of blood hit him like a wave.

Taking a step back, he used the hallway light to confirm his worst fear. The woman they had questioned earlier was sprawled on the carpet, her eyes wide and unblinking, staring directly at him. Fresh blood pooled around her, the crimson stain even reaching the tips of his shoes.
