The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 680:

Caden wasn’t usually one for gifts, but knowing it was from Alicia made his heart stir with anticipation.

He opened the box and found a sleek watch nestled inside.

A smile spread across his face.

“What a perfect gift. I actually needed a new one.”

Without a second thought, he slipped off his old watch and tossed it into a nearby drawer.

Holding up his wrist, he wiggled it with mock seriousness.

“See? I was incomplete without this. How considerate of you.”

Alicia laughed, shaking her head.

“Did you use that trick to charm other women too?”

Caden met her eyes, a spark of sincerity in his gaze.noveldrama

“Who else? Everything I’ve ever done, I did for you.”

With a soft smile, Alicia fastened the watch onto his wrist.

The way he carried himself made any accessory look impeccable.

“It looks perfect,” she said, admiration in her eyes.

Caden’s gaze turned serious as he looked at her, his eyes dark and intense.

“Ms. Bennett, I have something for you too.”

Alicia’s heart skipped a beat.

“What is it?”

He reached for a box and handed it to her.

Inside was a model of a white castle, still in its packaging, waiting to be built.

Alicia’s eyes lit up with surprise and delight.

She hadn’t expected something so whimsical, and the romantic in her brimmed with happiness.

“You picked this out?” she asked, unable to hide her joy.

“I didn’t think someone with your taste could choose something so beautiful.”

Caden watched Alicia as she carefully pieced the model together, a quiet smile playing on his lips.

Suddenly, Alicia paused and looked up.

“Was it Gerry? I saw you two sneaking around last time. Did he help you pick this out?”

Caden scoffed, rolling his eyes.

“Gerry? With his taste? Please.”

“The man’s been in the film industry for ages and still hasn’t made a name for himself. His claim to fame is a B-movie no one remembers.”

Alicia’s eyes narrowed with playful suspicion.

“Then what were you two plotting, hmm?”
