The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 300:

“I’ve seen all of you before.

Why the guardedness around me?” Caden said as he assertively moved her hands aside, exposing her further.

Overpowered, Alicia stood fully exposed under his gaze, her face coloring with embarrassment.

“I won’t just observe.

Expect more from me later,” Caden remarked flatly.

Alicia’s fists clenched, and her breathing grew heavy with rising anger.

Caden had to force himself to release her hand, struggling against his own desires.

“Have you cleaned up yet?” he inquired.

Alicia turned away from him, exasperated.

“No!”

His presence was no longer masked by pretense—he claimed he was there to assist her, worried that she might be in too much pain to manage alone.

“Let me assist you,” he offered, starting to undress.

Alicia knew she couldn’t outlast Caden.

Not in arguments, not in confrontations, and certainly not when it came to enduring his stubbornness.

Realizing he was serious, Alicia quickly softened her stance.

“I’m already clean enough.

You don’t need to do this!”

But Caden, already undressed, was unmoved by her protests.

“We need to make sure it’s thorough,” he said firmly.

His hands moved with purpose as he helped her.

Though they were silent, Caden used the moment to assert his dominance.

Once he had helped her bathe, he lifted her out of the water and wrapped her in a blanket.

Alicia bit her lip, curling up tightly in the warmth.

Caden moved toward the dresser.

Anticipating his next move, Alicia shut her eyes tightly, bracing herself for what she thought would be inevitable discomfort.

Her complexion turned pale as she tensed, like someone awaiting a painful fate.

Seeing her reaction, Caden cracked a smile.

“Why not open your eyes and look at me?” he teased.

Alicia remained still.

“Enough talk.

If you’re going to proceed, just do it,” she retorted sharply.novelbin

“Aren’t you worried it will hurt?” Caden’s hand gently stroked her thigh, slowly inching upward.

“You were injured last night, and though it’s healing, today’s actions might reopen the wound.

That could hurt far worse than before.

Are you sure you’re ready for that?”

Alicia’s color drained further, but she remained defiant.

Then Caden moved her legs apart.

A surge of resentment flooded over Alicia as she braced herself, certain he was capable of cruelty.

She clenched her teeth, steeling herself.
