The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 233: In the bedroom, Alicia and Monica were talking deeply. Both had been on the verge of losing their lives, but Monica, always carefree, shrugged her shoulders. She assured Alicia that next month she would be the sas always. Alicia smiled, feeling relief.

The evidence of Joshua's crhas been verified and the police are acting. Neither the Green family nor the Yates family can protect him, Alicia said.

Monica stayed positive. I guess we owe him thanks for his disgraceful behavior. They exchanged a knowing smile.

Just then, a doctor knocked on the door and cin to change Monica's bandages. Monica paled a little, but tried to maintain her composure.

Alicia, why don't you go out to eat something. The smell of the medicine is not very pleasant, she suggested. Alicia did not cout. When the bandages were removed, he saw the serious wound on Monica's calf. The sight of the blood and Monica's pale face, along with her inaudible moans of pain, brought tears to Alicia's eyes. She remained at Monica's side for several hours, in silence.

I'm fine, Alicia, Monica tried to reassure her. It's just a piece of meat. He'll heal eventually.

Alicia's gaze remained steady as she softly responded, I'll make things go well for you.

When Alicia visited the police station, she ran into Caden. He was talking to the sergeant, and next to him was a lawyer.

Alicia immediately recognized the well-known lawyer. It was Jeffrey Benson. At that moment, Jeffrey was respectfully handing sdocuments to the police sergeant. After their discussion, they went out and Caden noticed Alicia.

Her features were impressive, giving off a sense of authority. What brings you here, he asked.

Alicia replied: I need the help of the police to locate something.

Jeffrey, realizing the unusual atmosphere that existed between them, said goodbye and he left.

Alicia watched him walk away, admiring his sure step.

Caden casually commented: You like I have WhatsApp. I can send you his ID later.

Alicia snapped back to reality, unaware of the slight jealousy in his voice. Curious, he asked: You hired him for a case.

Caden hesitated. A case Yes, there is a case to solve.

Alicia had her own issues to solve, so she didn't press the issue.

I'll catch up with you more late, he said, and then added, “Wait foroutside." Caden raised an eyebrow. You're givingorders.

Alicia entered the police station without saying another word. After taking care of his needs, he left the police station and got into Caden's car. Once inside, he immediately asked: Did you hire Jeffrey to handle Joshua's case? Caden confirmed with a shake of his head.

How did you do it? I heard you didn't. Has not taken any cases in recent years. Caden smiled and replied: I asked for your help and you agreed to collaborate.

She paused, surprised. So influential was Caden Alicia considered his wealth and assumed that he must have compensated Jeffrey handsomely.

How much did he pay him, she asked, curious. Someone like him must earn tens of millions of dollars.

I pay him an annual salary of 80 million dollars after taxes.

Alicia was stunned. Her eyes widened.

He's your company's in-house lawyer, she asked, incredulously.

Caden calmly replied: Yes, he's been at Blizzard Group for two years.</p> Alicia suddenly remembered a past conversation with Caden, in which she had mocked him for his inability to hire Jeffrey. It turned out that she was the one who was wrong.

Alicia smiled awkwardly and said: That's quite remarkable.

This world was really a playground for capitalists. Without dwelling on her discomfort, Caden asked her: What did you need at the police station? I'm looking for a dog, she responded, referring to the one that had bitten Monica.

Caden didn't ask any more. He took her to the gallery.

During the journey, he received a call from the Joy mansion. They informed him that Yolanda was unwell and requested his return.

Is it serious, Caden asked with a frown. You called a doctor.

He spoke openly, allowing Alicia to hear the entire conversation. She, wisely, chose to remain silent and limited herself to looking out the window.

I understand. I'll be back shortly, Caden said, ending the call with a serious expression.

Alicia did not intrude with questions.

When they reached the gallery, Alicia got out and Caden left. At the Joy Mansion, Yolanda's room was packed with doctors.

Yolanda kept coughing, and upon seeing Caden, Ciara explained: We've already been to the hospital. Hism weakness is a long-standing problem, and it is not something that can be cured quickly. He needs tto recover. He caught a cold from working late and now has a slight fever. In short, the situation was not critical, but since his illness was work-related - and involved Caden - Ciara felt it necessary to call him.

Caden took off his coat and approached Yolanda. Yolanda m coughed so violently that she bent over, eyes closed, and spat out a mouthful of blood. Caden pursed his lips. Take her to the hospital, he ordered.

Yolanda raised her head when she heard his voice and her eyes lit up briefly. He wiped away the blood and said calmly: I'm fine... Caden.

The doctors left to organize the transfer to the hospital. Yolanda sat up and looked at him carefully. His eyes were red as he smiled. I'm very well. It was just a cold. But Ciara was so worried that she insisted that you come. She paused, then added with a touch of resentment, 'I've bothered you by rushing back. Mrs. Bennett... will blme.
