Chapter 668

Why did fate have to make Caden so flawless, eliciting sympathy even when he was at fault?

Caden held his stomach.

Alicia asked bluntly, “Is your stomach bothering you?”

Caden knew she would end up taking care of him, which slightly lifted the gloom in his heart, though his face remained expressionless.

“Get a new passenger seat tomorrow,” he demanded.

Alicia shouted, “You’re out of your mind! I drove to the airport alone, had dinner with Mr. Langstaff, and we parted ways there. He never got into my car.”

Caden’s face relaxed a little.

“Really?”

That sounded more reasonable.

He went straight upstairs, still clutching his stomach.

Alicia watched him go, her annoyance lingering, and consciously stayed on the opposite side of the room. The distance between them felt as though an elephant could fit between them.

Once inside, Caden collapsed on the sofa in his wet clothes and shut his eyes, trying to sleep. Initially, Alicia didn’t want to engage with him, but seeing him in discomfort from his stomach and soaked from the rain, she couldn’t help feeling responsible.

She approached and nudged his foot as she said, “Take a shower before you sleep.”

Caden remained still.

“Just leave me be,” he muttered coldly.

Alicia was seething.

“Can you stop being so immature? We can argue, but why must you neglect your health over it?”

Caden’s reply was cold as ice. “Stop worrying about me. If I die, it’ll be by my own hand. You’ll be free to find happiness with someone else.”

Alicia clenched her teeth and kicked him forcefully. “If that’s the case, you better die tonight. I’ll plan your funeral for the morning and have your ashes scattered in the ocean by afternoon.”

Caden slowly opened his eyes, his voice indifferent. “Why scatter my ashes in the ocean? Consider mixing them into cream and baking them into a cake. Celebrate with your new love. It would add a nice touch, don’t you think?”

Alicia shuddered in hatred. “Caden, you are so disgusting.”

“Oh, it even gets worse,” Caden continued blandly.
