Chapter: 341

Caden merely glanced at him without a word.

Hank then started the vehicle.

After a brief silence, Caden commented, “You returned quite fast."

Hank agreed. "Yes, Mr. Ward. My long legs help."

Caden remained silent.

Their drive back to the company was notably quiet.

Caden gazed out the window, his expression unreadable.

Hank stole a few glances at him, pondering if Caden had questions he wished to ask.

Deciding that Caden's silence meant a lack of interest, Hank chose not to speak.

Following a lengthy pause, Caden finally inquired with a frown, "What happened at the pharmacy?"

Hank rattled the bag of pills slightly. “I picked up some digestive tablets."

“And what else occurred?"

Hank hesitated, then revealed, "Ms. Bennett had a few choice words about you."

Caden pressed, “What exactly did she say?"

“She mentioned you got what you deserved," Hank explained.

Caden paused briefly, unsurprised, and took a deep breath. "Was there anything else?"

"That's everything she said," Hank confirmed.

Caden was left speechless once more.

"I'm asking if there was anything else that happened, you idiot! It seems like your brain switches off after work. Is your mind gathering cobwebs?" Caden thought.

Noticing Caden's urge to speak, Hank cautiously ventured, "Mr. Ward, is there something you'd like to discuss?"

With a frosty tone, Caden replied, “I'm contemplating how to dispense with your services."

Hank was taken aback.

“What have I done?" Hank pondered.

Annoyed, Caden directed, "Drive us back to the apartment."

Then something occurred to Hank. "Mr. Ward, were you aware that Ms. Bennett visited the Yates Mansion yesterday?"

This question clearly agitated Caden.

He had been perturbed by this lately.

"Why do you ask?" Caden queried.

Hank disclosed honestly, "Ms. Bennett injured her ankle jumping from an upper floor. Mr. Yates attempted to confine her.”

Caden felt a pang of dismay. "Did she tell you that?"
