"If he wants to sleep with you, just go for it. He's probably good in bed, and you might even enjoy it." Annoyed, Alicia hung up the phone.

Just then, his phone rang.
The number was unfamiliar, but for sreason, it made his heart skip. He picked up, and a familiar voice spoke.

Alicia stood there for a second, realizing only after the call ended that her palm was sweaty. Alicia didn't leave. She stayed in her hotel room, delving into the changes in Warrington over the past couple of years. She had to admit, she was pretty scared about it. In all that time, she had never once searched for anything about Caden.
While Corey battled with him both. openly and behind the scenes, Alicia kept her distance, working quietly in the background she only heard about Caden's impressive achievements and saw his neverywhere. But she never had the nerve to face him, unsure if he'd moved on or perhaps even started a new relationship.
The screen displayed a detailed profile of Caden, Warrington's top entrepreneur and most prominent figure. His biggest achievement was establishing two major hospitals last year, using technology to make a real impact on people's lives.
Alicia frowned and clicked on the hospital info to dig deeper, but just as o'm she did, her phone suddenly rang. Her heart skipped a beat, thinking it was her secretary calling to confirm the contract.
