Chapter 589:
Caden’s eyes narrowed.
“Uncle, do you want to find out what happens when I stop being respectful?”
Benedict scoffed, his irritation toward Alicia growing.
“A woman like her will only bring trouble if she marries into the family.
Mark my words, you’ll regret it.”
Caden’s tone was calm but firm.
“I’m not living under your roof, so why the concern?”
Benedict wanted to retort, but then he heard Dorian speak again, his voice steady but with an edge of desperation.
“My daughter has been pampered and is unwell.
Ms.
Bennett, given her condition, could we let this matter rest?”
Alicia’s expression hardened.
“I’ve never seen a patient act so aggressively.” Her voice sharpened as she recounted Yolanda’s past behavior.
“Animal abuse, unauthorized use of others’ likenesses to build illegal robots, and claiming Blizzard Group’s technology as her own.
Mr.
Moss, did you help her with any of that?”
Like vultures sensing blood, the reporters surged forward, bombarding Dorian with sharp, relentless questions.
Dorian’s eyes twitched, a flash of anger breaking through his composed exterior.
Alicia raised a hand, stopping the reporters.
“You can ask him your questions later.
Right now, I have other matters to attend to.
I’ll leave once Miss Moss wraps up what she started.”
Dorian’s tone deepened.
“This isn’t wise, Alicia.
I’ll take responsibility for Yolanda’s actions.
Just name your price, and I’ll make it right.”
Before Alicia could respond, a commanding voice cut through the tension.
“Mr.
Moss, perhaps you should clarify who Alicia really is before making any offers.”
All eyes turned.
Caden stood tall in a crisp suit, his presence powerful and unwavering.
The regal air around him seemed perfectly in sync with Alicia’s own fierce poise.
Dorian didn’t flinch at his arrival.
He knew Caden would defend Alicia, no matter the situation.novelbin
“Alicia’s gallery is just getting off the ground,” Dorian remarked.
“If she intends to expand, she’ll need substantial funding.”
Caden’s lips curled into a half-smile.
“Do you think I, as her boyfriend, will do nothing and just watch? The money I’ve made is also hers.
I can financially support her, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
Caden flashed a light smile, his expression a carefree dance of audacity and mischief.
His presence seemed to embolden Alicia, instantly giving her the courage she needed to stand up to Dorian.
Behind them, Yolanda could no longer contain herself and lunged forward, but Dorian swiftly restrained her by the wrist.
