Chapter 47: Stalker
True to his words, Caden didn’t leave her side. He also didn’t let go of her hand and stayed beside her during dinner. Brie also sat beside Caden so Samantha wouldn’t be able to sit on the other side.
They decided to dine in an Italian restaurant at a five-star hotel. While waiting for the food, they had a chance to talk a little.
"So Prince Caden, we heard you and Alira were separated for twelve years and you didn’t try to visit her even once?" Ace asked.
She felt restless with Ace’s question. She wasn’t sure why he needed to ask Caden about the past. She liked the guy when they first met, but looking at him now, she wanted to pour a glass of water into his face.
Caden slightly smiled. "There’s a reason we have to be separated. Alira knows about it and we agreed when we were kids"
Caden was still calm and Alira couldn’t feel that he was annoyed with Ace.
"But isn’t that stupid? I mean, getting engaged at the age of six? I was still playing with legos at that age." Ace laughed and the others did the same.
She looked at Caden. Still, he was calm and composed.
"Well, Alira, Lucas, and I also played at that age. But I didn’t remember playing with Legos. Did we, Lucas?" Caden asked.
Lucas shook his head. "I think we played video games a lot. Right, Alira?"
