Chapter: 338

"Is this timing of your attack because of Alicia?"

Caden confirmed quietly, “If you really need help, you could ask her to intervene on your behalf."

Joshua felt a tightness in his chest.

He was right.

Alicia had already grown close to Caden.

Understanding Caden's character, Joshua knew he wouldn't assist Alicia without receiving something in return.

Hiding his irritation, Joshua said with a sneer, "I don't need anyone to intervene for me, and it's too early for you to feel victorious. The outcome is still undecided."

It was only money. The Green family would handle it.

He wasn't out of options.

With a smirk, he inquired, “Do you honestly believe spending 300 million dollars on a woman is justified?"

Caden responded coolly, “It's a significant loss."

Casting 300 million dollars away would certainly create waves.

Alicia broke her promise, however. She failed to cook as she had vowed and instead spent the evening at the Yates Mansion with Joshua.

She showed such ungratefulness.

Caden continued, “Don't fret. If your company struggles, I can provide all the help you need. Just give me the signal."

Joshua sneered, "Keep dreaming. You don't control Warrington, Caden."

Caden narrowed his eyes. “Ah, I forgot. You've already traded your freedom to become part of the Green family. Why would you need my assistance?"

Joshua was at a loss for words.

He ended the call in frustration.

Caden remained emotionless. He set his phone down and continued to eat diligently.

Hank watched from the side.

Despite sampling each dish, Caden appeared uninterested.

He was nearly ready to stop eating.

Hank quickly intervened. “Mr. Ward, please have a bit more."

Caden showed no enthusiasm. “The flavor is lacking. I'm not hungry.”

Hank argued, “If you start losing weight, Mrs. Ward will worry, and she'll never stop mentioning it."

Caden's expression soured.

He reluctantly took another bite.

Hank attempted to lift Caden's spirits on the drive back to the company by mentioning topics that usually captured his interest.

Caden remained silent.
