His expression changed when he saw her face. The last thing he wanted was for Alira to fear him.
"I'm sorry." He whispered. "I just thought you want to know.
She nodded and took a deep breath.
"Yes. But I'm not ready to hear it. I can already imagine what you did." She said.
Caden didn't say a word. He felt guilty making her remember what happened twelve years ago.
"H-How did you become the boss?" She asked.
Caden sighed. "When I got rescued, I'm on the brink of death. I felt like I was on a cliff hanging to my life and almost give up on living. I felt so useless because my legs were crashed. Everyone thought I wouldn't be able to stand or walk again. Then I remember I made a promise. I told myself, how could I leave without even saying how I really feel about you. Then Lucas sent some pictures of you. That's when I decided to start therapy. I could never accept that I was defeated just like that. I wanted revenge." He paused.
