Chapter 1034:
Alicia stood, her bag slipping from her grasp to the floor. She bent down to pick it up, and the neckline of her dress dipped, revealing a fleeting glimpse of what lay beneath.
Caden’s eyebrows drew together. “What are you wearing underneath that?”
Straightening up with her bag in hand, Alicia feigned ignorance. “What do you mean?”
Caden’s eyes followed her, focusing on her exposed collarbone, the dress hugging her curves. It seemed innocent, yet the idea of the lingerie beneath stirred him. However, this was hardly the moment for such thoughts, especially since she wore the lingerie he had selected, presumably for a client meeting.
Caden snarled inwardly, his skepticism evident. “What sort of client requires special lingerie?
Caden’s face remained impassive. “Is there really a need for fancy underwear at work?”
Alicia’s smile was tinged with allure. “I happen to like this set. It’s not like I’m undressing at work, so what’s the harm?”
“That’s not appropriate,” Caden said, abandoning all pretense. “If you insist on going out, you should change your underwear first.”

Alicia replied, “Why should I listen to you? We’re only married. Do you honestly think you have any say in what I wear?”
With that, she turned toward the door.
Caden swiftly pulled her back, pressing her against the cabinet. His expression stern, he lifted her skirt. “If you won’t change it, I will.”
Much to his surprise, he discovered something even more frustrating. This bold woman was wearing a matching set!
Caden’s gaze intensified as he looked at her.
Alicia responded with indifference. “What’s the matter? Don’t you like it?”
Caden was so infuriated that he couldn’t even think about returning to the bedroom. He decided to change her attire right then and there.
Alicia had seen this coming and offered no resistance. Provoking his irritation was precisely her purpose. Mockingly, Alicia said, “Didn’t you claim you wouldn’t cater to my impulses? What’s this now?”
With frustration etched on his face, Caden removed the delicate lingerie. “If you’re trying to provoke me, you needn’t go to such lengths. You’ve overestimated me.” He lifted her onto the cabinet, his intentions clear. “Don’t waste the lingerie.”
After suppressing his desire for two long days, Caden remained firm. “Are you going to remove the garment yourself, or should I do it for you?”
Alicia’s anger was not so easily subdued. Just as she was poised to avenge herself, the doorbell unexpectedly rang.
