The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 289:

The familiar setting softened his feelings for a moment.

But then, he noticed Alicia dumping the remaining rib soup into the trash.

He frowned.

“Did you make any for me?”

Alicia turned to face him.

With a steady gaze, she replied, “I did.”

Caden’s expression grew more severe.

“Why didn’t you let me know?” he demanded.

“You didn’t ask,” she responded.

“Besides, you already brought dinner.

Why would you think about eating my soup?”

Caden remained silent.

The quiet stretched between them.

Alicia then took the leftovers outside to feed the neighborhood strays.

Caden was caught off guard by Alicia’s unexpected return.

In the midst of undressing for a bath, the door swung open.

His physique was fully exposed, the contours of his muscles undeniably alluring.

A flicker of amusement crossed Alicia’s face as their eyes briefly met before she quickly looked away.

She chided him, “You’re not alone here, you know.

Show some decency.”

With a nonchalant shrug, Caden replied, “Who knew you’d come back?”

The room fell into an awkward silence.

Given Alicia’s usual quick exits, her lingering now felt unexpected.

She maintained her stoic expression, choosing to ignore him.

Caden, however, didn’t hesitate.novelbin

He strode directly toward her.

Alicia, usually so composed, found herself unsettled by his boldness.

Her eyes darted away to avoid his gaze.

He stopped abruptly in front of her, letting the tension hang in the air for a moment.

Then, with casual confidence, he brushed past her and secured the door.

Alicia stood dumbfounded.

She understood his tactics.

He was flaunting his naked body to provoke her—a typical move for Caden with his impudent charm.

Exasperated, yet intrigued, Alicia glanced at the robot, an idea beginning to form in her mind.

Turning back to Caden, her voice steady, she said, “How about we sleep together tonight?”

Caden, taken aback, questioned his hearing.

Alicia—known for her fierceness rather than flirtation—proposing something like this was astonishing.

Yet, Caden was always up for a challenge.
