Chapter 197: ????? Alice clenched her fists tightly, remaining silent.
Monica was visibly shaken by Caden's behavior. She leaned over to Alicia and whispered, "What is Caden doing? Everything seemed fine earlier today, and now he's with a stranger. What happened?" Alice quietly replied, "You can do what you like." Monica felt uneasy. "Did you break up? "Did you have a fight?" "We were never really together," Alicia explained. Worried that Monica would make a scene, she gently took her hand and whispered, "Ignore him, Monica." Monica noticed the loneliness in Alicia's eyes and began to understand the situation. She couldn't help but feel angry. Caden, quick to move on, had done so right in front of Alicia! Given Caden's high status and volatile temper, Monica knew she couldn't confront him directly. However, she felt compelled to support Alicia and help her vent her frustration.

Surprised, Alice stared as the men approached. "Monica, what are you doing?" "I'm just having a little fun," Monica replied. Then she announced loudly, "Mr. Ward has a beauty by his side and I'm very envious of her. “I want to enjoy my twith a couple of male companions." The woman with Caden looked up at Monica. She had been flirting with him, thinking she might kiss him. But seeing the clear disdain in her eyes, she froze, too shocked to act. Still, she didn't dare leave, clinging awkwardly to him.
Monica did make a scene.
She chose two male companions: one a tall, muscular man, and the other a 1.8-meter-tall young athlete. Gerry laughed. "What a party, choosing two at once." Monica replied: "I'm not that hungry. One is for Alicia." Alice was shocked. She looked up, puzzled. Then she stood still.
Meanwhile, Caden glanced over, previously indifferent. He subtly sized up the two male companions before turning his attention back to Alicia. Despite her surprise, Alicia didn't object.
The male companion was quite adept, engaging Alice in charming conversation and offering her drinks and fruit. Alice sat up straight, accepting what was offered, although she found it difficult to feel comfortable with the situation. Noticing her discomfort, the companion joked, "Is this your first visit here, young lady?" His voice was reassuring and his feigned affection convincing. He looked at Alice as if he were deeply in love with her, his gaze seductive and intense.

Just as Alice was about to decline, she noticed Caden watching her from a distance. He leaned back casually, his expression cold and somewhat menacing.
Alice remembered the peculiar sensations she had when she was intimate with him. He seemed to be the only one who affected her in this way. Was it because it was her only experience? What if she was with someone else? Would she feel equally adrift if she were intimate with someone else? Alicia had never considered it. Considering that Caden saw her as just a casual fling and openly flirted with others, why would she remain faithful? So she didn't dismiss the companion's offer. Instead, she replied, "Sure. "I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do." Caden caught her acceptance.
He scoffed, unpressed, and his face hardened even further.
Gerry, looking to add sspice to the evening, said to his date: "If you're going out with her, remember the expenses. Charge them toand sort it out with your boss later." The companion smiled. "Don't worry. For such lovely company tonight, I won't ask for anything." Alicia smiled faintly. The mood had been light and playful, but Caden's comment soon broke the spell. I have cynically remarked, "Nothing free is ever good." The smile on the male companion's face faltered, tension filling the air. Gerry clicked his tongue and asked, "Are you drunk? Why attack a young man for no reason?" Caden remained impassive. "No. "I'm just stating the facts." Gerry replied: "Keep drinking. Alicia is showing interest in someone. Don't spoil it."
Caden's comment seemed to have spurred the male companion's pride, making him more determined t impress Alicia. Although Alicia hadn't been drinking, the alcohol on the male companion's breath made her head spin. He moved his hand to her abs, slightly damp from the liquor. "Feel it," he encouraged her softly. "Do you like it?"
Alicia looked down, her fingers slowly running over his body and finallyn resting on the beltlok his pants. She touched him lightly, her fingers stopping near a more intimate spot.
The companion, who had been flirtatious and self-assured, suddenly felt overwhelmed by her touch. He evhis began tollose composure and, despite the crowd surrounding them, he could not help showing his excitement.
