Chapter 317
"I want to talk to you face-to-face," Caden said, somewhat hesitantly. "You free?"
"Just spit it out over the phone; I’m all ears."
Caden’s eyes dimmed slightly. After a moment of silence, he finally spilled the beans. "I’m heading abroad."
Rosemary seemed taken aback. Just like that?
"I’ve quit my job at the hospital, and my flight’s this afternoon." As Caden said this, his smile had a hint of bitterness.
"Where to? Why in such a rush?"
As soon as she asked this, Romeo gripped her hand tightly. Looking up at him, she saw a look of warning and jealousy in his eyes. Rosemary had a hunch he wasn’t telling the whole truth. Then her expression changed slightly. "That’s not the real reason you’re leaving."
He often worked overtime, and it was par for the course for him. He wouldn’t just get up and quit for no reason, so something felt off.
Romeo: ’She sure knew a lot about him, didn’t she?’
"What happened?" Rosemary asked softly.
Caden hadn’t expected her to be so sharp. Pulling the wool over her eyes was proving to be a tall order.
