The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 925

Chapter 925:

The room flooded with light, revealing Caden’s sharp, familiar features. His piercing eyes and chiseled jawline

left no room for doubt. It was unmistakably him.

Relief flooded her body, but anger quickly followed. Without thinking, she kicked him hard. “What the hell is

wrong with you? Sneaking around like that! And sending someone to ambush me? | thought | was about to die!”

Caden staggered slightly, rubbing his hand and wincing. “Ambush? What are you talking about?” His brows

furrowed in confusion. “I calone.”

Alicia froze, her anger replaced by dread. “You calone? Then who was following me?”

Caden expertly hid his emotions, his focus sharp as he tuned into the sounds echoing from beyond the door.

Holding Alicia against the wall, he whispered, barely breathing, “When did he start following you?”

Alicia’s grip on his arm tightened, comforted by the rhythm of his heartbeat pulsing through her. “I only noticed

him about ten minutes ago. He might be connected to Corey,” Alicia murmured.

Swiftly, Caden extracted his phone and dialed a number. “I've got a team at the hospital entrance. I'll have them

cto get you. I'll take care of the situation outside.” Alicia’s expression clouded with concern. “Are you sure

you're up for this?”

She studied his face, noting the paleness and signs of fatigue.

Caden brushed off her worry with a short laugh. “I'm not on my deathbed. Trust me.”

Suddenly, a shadow loomed outside the door.

Caden instinctively moved Alicia behind him, protective. From outside, a voice called out, “Ms. Bennett, are you

alright?”

The voice was courteous, yet the underlying intentions remained dull. Alicia kept quiet.

The sound of the lock being tampered with followed, but before the intruder could gain entry, Caden’s team

arrived, quickly subduing the man.

Caden stepped forward, pulled off the man’s mask, and turned to Alicia. “Do you recognize this person?” Alicia

leaned in for a better look. The man’s face was unfamiliar to her. His eyes burned with intensity but held no trace

of malice. He didn’t fit the profile of an assassin. Despite being forced to kneel, the man maintained an upright

posture and quickly defended himself, saying, “Ms. Bennett, | meant no harm. | thought you were in danger

when | saw you being pulled into the room, so | picked the lock without asking.”

Caden had no patience for his explanations and directed that he be taken to the police.

Alicia halted the action and interrupted, “Hold on.” She moved around Caden to scrutinize the man’s badge more

closely. It turned out he was indeed a doctor employed by the hospital. Since Corey financed the hospital, Alicia

knew all the doctors there and was certain the badge was genuine.

Curious, Alicia questioned the man, “You're a cardiologist. What are you doing in the ICU?"
