Chapter: 461
Then she remembered the long-standing illness that had plagued him for years.
She held back her irritation. "Don't you have feelings for the woman you're currently seeing?"
Caden looked down, concealing his feelings. “If I had feelings for her, I would have introduced her to you by now.”
But he hadn't brought her along.
In other words, he didn't have feelings for her.
Ciara now felt utterly disheartened.
“Do what you think is best," she advised. "Yolanda likes you, and you need her support. Maybe you'll grow to have feelings for her after marrying."
Caden felt nothing.
He regarded the current plan as mundane as his regular work duties.
"You're right. If you're eager for a great-grandchild, I could make her undergo IVF for having a child," he said, trying to soothe her.
Ciara shook her head.
"Yolanda's health isn't great. We should talk about this later."
She longed for a great-grandchild but did not want to impose on Yolanda's well-being.
After some time, Ciara asked, “Does this mean you've accepted the Moss family's proposal?"
Caden did not give a direct answer. "I'll be picking up Yolanda in a few days."
Ciara felt a twinge in her heart.
She sighed. "You always set such high standards for yourself."
Caden Laughed.
“High standards? Or am I just exploiting the situation?"
Ciara noticed his smile didn't reach his eyes.
In his mid-twenties, he was accustomed to making bold, decisive decisions for his ambitions.
However, she was relieved to see a flicker of hesitation in his eyes just now.
Could it be that he had feelings for the woman he was seeing?
Perhaps he did, but hadn't acknowledged them yet.
Ciara resolved to act, considering she was already in Warrington and wanted to make her visit worthwhile.
After they had dinner, Caden stayed briefly before leaving.
As the maid picked up the dishes, she sighed and said, "Mr. Ward hardly ate anything."
This distressed Ciara.
She scolded herself, saying, "I will not mention these at the dinner table again."
Caden then headed back to his company.
