The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 1039:

But soon, she lost her energy, closing her eyes and resting her head against Caden’s shoulder, letting the kiss fade as she just stayed close to him.

Caden chuckled, giving her cheek a gentle pat. “Falling asleep on me?”

Alicia cracked her eyes open just a little, too tired to do much more than roll them.

Caden laughed. “Only you could fall asleep in the middle of a kiss.”

Later, Caden had booked a cozy seaside cottage for them. He bathed her carefully, and they eventually drifted off to sleep in each other’s arms, his hand resting gently on her lower abdomen, massaging it softly.noveldrama

Alicia mumbled, “What are you doing?”

Caden spoke gently. “Your period is coming up soon. I’m just giving you a little massage to help with any discomfort ahead of time.”

Alicia felt a warm rush in her chest at his care. She hugged him tighter. “So, that’s why you insisted we eat warm food today, to help with the pain?”

“Yeah.”

After a moment, his hand slid down, slipping under her nightgown.

Alicia clicked her tongue.

Caden, sounding serious, said, “Stay still. I’m just checking.”

“Checking what? I’m fine.”

Caden’s so-called check turned out to be something completely different.

“They’ve grown a bit. If your period doesn’t start by tomorrow, I’ll help trim it for you.”

Alicia sighed in defeat. Her periods were usually long and uncomfortable, lasting about a week, so she made sure to stay neat and tidy.

Once Caden found out, he took over that job.

Alicia had been asleep for a full eight hours, yet it was still pitch black when she opened her eyes.

The room was filled with the soothing sound of the ocean’s waves crashing nearby, and the first thing she saw was Caden’s serene, handsome face beside her.

Her heart swelled with affection. She had decided to let go of any resentments and end the silent treatment she had been giving him.

With Caden still deeply asleep, Alicia seized the moment. She softly caressed his face and planted gentle kisses on his skin.

He continued to sleep peacefully, undisturbed by her tender gestures.

Alicia smiled to herself and snuggled against his chest, letting the warmth of his body envelop her. She inhaled deeply, savoring his clean scent—a mix of shower gel and something uniquely Caden. It was comforting, grounding, and impossibly intoxicating.

As she drew back, a quiet chuckle escaped her lips.

However, her smile quickly faded when she noticed Caden’s eyes were open, watching her with quiet intensity.
