Chapter: 58

They were in a taxi, not a private place.

The driver had even turned off the music, obviously paying close attention, with his ears practically tuned into their conversation, just shy of chiming in.

How could Caden have no sense of decency?

Realizing this, he finally stopped speaking.

He stayed still while she pressed against him, and then he whispered, "So, who started this whole thing?"

Alicia shivered from the warmth radiating from him.

She quickly withdrew her hand.

Noticing her reaction, Caden chuckled. “What's this sudden blush? Are you reflecting on our little escapade?"

A tingling sensation coursed down Alicia's spine, and she instantly denied it. “I'm blushing because you've made me angry!"

She reluctantly stated, “If I had known it was you that night, I would have rather died than slept with you."

Caden chuckled softly in her ear. "Yet it was this body you loathe so much that you held onto and desired time after time."

Alicia's face felt like it was on fire, and in a burst of anger, she viciously bit his cheek.

After the bite, she went back in her original spot.

Caden rubbed the spot where she had bitten him, remaining silent while a smile played on his Lips.

After a moment, Hank's call came through.

“I have some information that hasn't been confirmed. I'm not sure if I should share it with you yet."

"Go ahead and say it."

Hank lowered his voice and said, "It seems Lilliana's song this time was ghostwritten."

Caden remained unfazed. “Let her do as she wishes."

Hank responded, "She's being dishonest, and you're just going to let it happen? That's incredibly unfair to Miss Bennett."

Caden let out a cold Laugh.

"Are you starting to feel sympathy for her? Perhaps if a nude photo of yours surfaces during the next meeting, you might find some calm."

Hank was left speechless.

Alicia suddenly sneezed from her seat.

Because of his keen hearing, Hank caught the sound and expressed slight surprise. "Mr. Ward, is there a woman with you?"

Caden glanced over at Alicia.

“Yes, in a way."

"Then I won't interrupt you, Mr. Ward," said Hank.

The following day, Caden allocated a substantial amount of money to promote Lilliana's new song.

Thanks to the prior efforts of the Green family, the news spread widely.
