The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 336:

One thing puzzled him, though.

Why did she always find herself in dangerous situations? How would she manage without his help?

After paying her respects at the grave, Alicia noticed that Caden’s car had already left.

She got into her own vehicle, oblivious to her surroundings.

To her astonishment, Caden was sitting in the passenger seat.

She jumped, about to pull away, but he reached out and pulled her back in.

The car door slammed shut.

He leaned toward her while maintaining a respectful distance.

“You’re being followed.”

Alicia stopped resisting and looked into his eyes.

Caden examined her closely.

At this proximity, he could clearly see her delicate cheeks and found himself drawn to her alluring fragrance.

His Adam’s apple moved noticeably as he spoke, “I couldn’t see the person’s face, but I’m certain they followed you here.”

Alicia was doubtful.

“If I’m the target, why are you in my car?”

Caden responded earnestly, “With me here, the person wouldn’t dare to approach.”

“They wouldn’t dare even if you weren’t here!”

Alicia opened the glove box, revealing an assortment of self-defense tools.

Large and small, these were tools she could use to defend herself in any situation.

Caden found himself speechless.

She closed the box.

After what happened last time, I’ve learned to defend myself.

You don’t need to worry.”

Caden seemed unfazed.

“If the attacker is skilled, you might not even get the chance to reach for your tools,” he pointed out.noveldrama

“I’ve been trained,” Alicia replied.

“I can handle an average adult male without trouble.”

“If he’s brave enough to follow you, he’s not an average male.”

Alicia frowned at his persistence.

“Your assumptions are pointless.”

“It’s just a precaution.

If he’s armed—say, with a gun—you wouldn’t be able to defend yourself,” Caden explained.

The corner of Alicia’s mouth twitched.

“If he really had a gun, both of us would already be in trouble.

Your jumping into the car to intimidate him would be quite useless, wouldn’t it?”

Caden was momentarily taken aback by her words.

Alicia tapped the touchscreen, unlocking the car door automatically.

“Get out.

I need to head back.”

Caden remained seated.
