NovelsFreeChapter 226 Wait and See My heart skipped a beat. The mark wasn't large, but to me, it was glaringly obvious.
Did Caden leave this? + Pearls "Caden said I'm the only woman he truly loves. He's going to marry me." Heidi smirked provocatively. "Rosaline, if you know what's good for you, you'll resign immediately and never appear in front of Caden again. He only loves me. Stop trying to seduce him. Stop trying to take him away!" I held back my disgust and smiled nonchalantly. If Caden only loves you, why are you so afraid someone will take him from you?" I clapped the stack of documents in my hands and added indifferently. "Now, if you'll excuse me, Ms. Tessford, I have a report to give to Caden.
"You-Heidi was so furious that she was at a loss for words.
Ignoring her, I stepped past and left the break room.
Though my stride remained steady, a faint ache spread through my chest.
Why did Heidi keep provokingover and over again? Wasn't she already with Caden? Then why was she so afraid of losing him? Afraid that I would take him away? If Heidi really was Tessa, she should be confident that she had Caden's heart in the palm of her hand.
But she was acting like this instead.
What exactly was she afraid of? I pondered for a moment before sending Anthony a message, "Anthony, I need you to look into someone for me" He replied almost instantly, "Who? As long as it's not that Tessa from a hundred years ago, we're good." Tessa...
I smiled wryly. It really was about Tessa.

Whether Heidi was Tessa or not... well, we'd just have to wait and see.
I sent Anthony another message, “Look into Heidi. Stage name: Angel. Former resident singer at Chroma Lounge.
I need everything on her." Then I added, "Especially around the 18th of last month. See if anything unusual happened with her." The 18th of last month was the day of my engagement ceremony with Caden.
That was the day Heidi appeared in front of Caden and ruined everything.
Just like Yura said, it was too much of a coincidence.
173 Wed, 19 Mar Chapter 226 Wait and See And coincidences like that usually weren't coincidences at all.
My gut toldHeidi's appearance had been orchestrated.
"Got it, Wilda. I'll dig into it as soon as possible, Anthony responded wiftly.
"Good. I'll be waiting.
I put my phone away and headed to the CEO's office.
As I stood at the door, about to see Caden again, my breath hitched.
I took a deep breath to compose myself and knocked.
"Cin," Caden's cool voice rang out.
I pushed the door open and stepped inside.

"Yes." I nodded calmly. Then, I walked up to his desk and placed the documents in front of him. There's something I need to report about the Ice and Fire project.
His eyes flicked to the papers.
I continued, "From what I've gathered, Heartstone Jewels has recently released a large number of imitation products, which have significantly impacted Ice and Fire sales. Our revenue has dropped by 20% this month." "I know." Caden's sharp eyes narrowed. "I've already sent Yale to investigate.
I nodded. "Alright, I'll get back to work then." Just as I turned to leave, a sudden force gripped my waist. Before I could react, I lost my balance and fell. straight into Caden's arms.

Caden took advantage of the moment, pullingonto the couch and trappingbeneath him.
He leaned over, his hands planted firmly on either side ofas he presseddown.
"You cto see me... only for work?" His piercing gaze locked onto mine.
"Alpha, are you seriously going to let him keep pushing you around? You know, if you just unleashed your strength, you could throw him straight out of this building," Freya growled in my mind. "I didn't want to reveal my identity before, and I definitely don't want to now."
I shifted slightly, only to find his grip tightening. Smirking retorted, "And what else would I be here for?"
Hmph. I didn't need my Alpha strength to deal with him. I had my reasons for keeping my identity hidden for the sake of the Shadow Pack.
Caden lips pressed into a thin line, the muscles in his chiseled face taut with displeasure.

After a long silence, he finally spoke. "Rosaline, is there really nothing else you want to say to"No." I replied flatly.
"You're not even going to askwhere I was last night?" His intense gaze bore into mine.
I scoffed. "Oh, your precious Tessa already told me." Caden stiffened. "Tessa? What did she say?" I scoffed and turned my head away, refusing to look at him.
What the hell was he playing at? After spending the night with Heidi, he still dared to askabout it? Was he afraid I hadn't been humiliated enough? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
