Chapter: 214
Last time, even though she had been drunk, she hadn't held back. If he had truly crossed a line with her, she wouldn't claim he was forcing her.

As for just now, she had refused him verbally, but her body told a different story.

What could she have done if he had been more assertive?

From a man's perspective, she reasoned that Caden had no need to pretend to be a gentleman.

Caden stated bluntly, "We can continue now if you want."

She shook her head vigorously.

There was no need for that at all.

As she was holding the envelope, she hesitated to leave.

“If you have something on your mind, just speak up," he said.

Alicia leaned in slightly and whispered, “Caden, do you have some kind of secret illness?"

Caden was momentarily speechless.

Then he pressed his lips together and replied casually, "You're right."

Alicia was shocked.

“yihat the fuck?" she exclaimed inwardly.

"What is it?" she asked.

Caden let out a snort as he glanced at his "cure." "Why don't you take a wild guess?"

Alicia's mind raced with all sorts of wild ideas.

The more she contemplated, the more outrageous those thoughts became.

“Well, just take care of yourself," she said.

Alicia could feel the intensity of his gaze. It was like he wanted to eat her alive. Thus, she decided it was best to leave as quickly as possible.

Caden watched her retreating figure, leaning back slowly in his chair.

Would he really give up the chance to sleep with her again?

No, he definitely wouldn't.

However, he wasn't in a rush. He could still wait for the right moment.

By then, his prey would be even more enticing.

As Alicia opened the door to leave, a thought crossed her mind, prompting her to turn back to him.

"Do you need me to take out the kitchen trash?" she asked.

Caden was momentarily taken aback.

"No? Alright then," she asked casually.

Caden still found himself at a loss for words.
