The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 965

Chapter 965:

Cade had been eagerly awaiting their return, hoping for sattention after their moment together.

Unbeknownst to him, they hadn't even glanced at him before heading straight for the bathroom.

Cade wagged his tail and followed, but they closed the door on him. His tail drooped, and he whimpered softly

against the door.

Feeling sorry for Cade, Alicia suggested, “Poor dog. Let's take a break and play fetch with him.”

Caden, his voice raspy, replied, “I'm even more pitiful than he is. Can't you pampera bit?”

“What grounds do you have to compare yourself to a dog?”

“Once I'm satisfied, I'll take him out for a two-hour adventure to make up for it.” Alicia was left speechless.

After their intimate moments, Caden refreshed himself with a shower and took Cade for a walk.

Meanwhile, Alicia was dozing when her phone rang. She answered it groggily without checking the caller ID.

Corey's playful voice cthrough the line. “Are you still sleeping? It’s noon now.”

Alicia perked up, her tone slightly cooler. “What's up, Mr. Hampton?”

Corey laughed. “Your voice sounds a bit rough. Has your man kept you in bed for three days straight, or is this

just how you two celebrate?”

Corey, known for his casual flings rather than serious relationships, had worked with Alicia for two years, giving

her a full view of his flirtatious tendencies. She responded lightly, “If you're looking for pointers, you might want

to consult Caden.”

Corey replied, “I'm not ready to settle down yet. To me, marriage feels like a prison.”

Then, shifting the conversation, he said, “Let’s grab lunch sometime.”

Alicia declined promptly. “I'm busy.”

There was lingering tension between Corey and Caden from a past argument when both had been intoxicated,

and Alicia preferred not to stir up old conflicts.

Corey changed the subject. “Gemma is in town.” He then passed the phone to Gemma.

Gemma'’s voice was low but sweet. “Hello, Alicia.” Alicia’s heart warmed, and she couldn't suppress a smile. “Hi,

Gemma!”

Gemma added, “I'm so sorry | missed your wedding day. | was in the hospital at that time. I'm feeling better

now, and | begged Corey to bringto Warrington.” After a brief pause, Gemma asked, “I really miss you. Can

we meet up for lunch?”

Moved by Gemma'’s words, Alicia agreed.

Preferring not to entertain at home, Alicia made a reservation at a restaurant. She then instructed Caden to bring

the dog back, and they set off for lunch.

Caden had seen Corey once at the wedding, where he had given an unexpectedly extravagant gift, nearly

rivaling Ciara’s generosity. This had made a lasting impression on Caden.
