NovelEnglishChapter 341: Shelia's eyes were red with fury.
"Caden, you coward! Kill me!" Caden remained standing, his body tense, fighting to control himself.
His eyes, cast downward, swirled with conflicting emotions.
Desperate, Shelia crawled to him and grabbed his pant leg.
"Kill me, Caden! Just kill me!" Caden pressed his foot down on her hand.
Accustomed to comfort, Shelia found the sharp pain unbearable despite her loud protests.
Her cries ceased under the pain.
Caden applied more pressure with his foot and spoke in a chilling, ominous tone, "You won't die.
You'll keep living.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYou'll endure such misery that you'll wish for death." After seeing Alicia off, Caden headed back to his company.
He removed his shirt, revealing a bright red burn on his arm where the skin was nearly worn away.
The pain was sharp, and he shut his eyes momentarily to endure it.
Hank hurriedly brought a first aid kit to tend to the wound.
When Caden opened his eyes again, they were clear and focused.
His voice was raspy as he instructed, "This injury stays between us.
Grandma is too observant.
She'd make a big deal out of it." Hank nodded in understanding.
"Understood, Mr.
Ward." "And keep this from Alicia as well." Despite their breakup, Alicia still showed concern for him.
Hank was taken aback.
"Mr.
Ward, are you and Ms.
Bennett back together?" Caden responded flatly, "No." Hank, curious, asked further, "It's been a while.
Are things truly finished between you?" A brief silence fell.
Then, rather dismissively, Caden said, "Yes." Hank wondered why Caden would hide his injury from Alicia if things were truly over.
Did she still have feelings for him? After wrapping Caden's burn, Hank recalled something important.
"Mr.
Ward, during Mr.
Benson's recent conversation with Mr.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYates, he discovered the details about how Mr.
Yates caused the death of Ms.
Bennett's parents." Joshua wasn't capable of causing the plane crash at that time; it was a mere coincidence. However, Joshua did meddle.
He poisoned Phil and Donna before they boarded the plane.
Caden narrowed his eyes and scoffed, remembering "No wonder he was so desperate to retrieve their bodies from the crash site."
Joshua had poisoned them, knowing that if the authorities discovered the tainted bodies, he would be the prEn suspect.
Alicia, however, was unaware of these facts and, moved by Joshua's apparent concern, married him without hesitation. Hank spoke more quietly, "Back then, Joshua was constantly using Ms.
Bennett's money.
When Phil realized this, it led to a major confrontation.
During this dispute, Joshua uncovered a secret about Phil."
