The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 687:

He had been the one rushing, yet now he delighted in teasing her.

She felt a mix of love and frustration towards him for this.noveldrama

Caden teased, “I need to figure out why your reactions are so immediate. A single kiss or touch sends you soaring.”

Alicia’s face heated up at his forward comment.

“Stop it.”

Caden didn’t let up, his tone increasingly playful.

“Am I mistaken? Since you’ve been with me, it’s as if your body can’t go a day without my touch.”

Alicia reached her limit, frowning as she attempted to move away, but her hand brushed against something hidden under the sheets.

Thinking it might be a present, she pulled it out.

“What’s this?”

Caden looked at it, a sly smile spreading across his face.

“Just open it. I think you’re going to like what’s inside.”

Alicia bit her lip, a smile playing on her lips as she opened the box, only to discover it was filled with condoms.

Her mouth fell open in astonishment.

Caden nonchalantly grabbed one, ripping it open with his teeth.

His eyes gleamed with an unmistakable longing.

Alicia had no room to refuse.

She could only plead with him to be gentle and hope for the best.

“Gentle isn’t exactly your style, though, right?” Caden pointed out in a playful tone.

Alicia smacked him in the arm and muttered, “Shameless.”

As Caden leaned in to press closer against her, Alicia shifted her position and inadvertently looked out the window.

Once again, she stared at the majestic sight before her—the towering skyscrapers, the banners in the sky spelling out Caden’s marriage proposal, and the luxurious castle.

Her heart softened.

“How much did you spend on tonight?”

Caden clicked his tongue.

“Seriously? Why would you ask something so trivial at a time like this?”

Alicia bit her lower lip.

“I can’t help but think it’s a waste,” she murmured.

After all, everything would be gone in the morning.

Just the thought of it brought a pang to her chest.

But Caden silenced her dreary thoughts with a deep kiss.

He didn’t stop until he heard her breathe a contented sigh.

Unfortunately, good things never last, as the saying went.

The phone that had dropped to the floor began to ring.
