Chapter 294:


    She then sent a message to her real estate agent.


    “Have you found any suitable properties?”


    The agent quickly called her back.


    “Ms.


    Bet, I’ve found three properties that meet your criteria.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    If you’re free tomorrow morning, I can show them to you.”


    Alicia knew she wouldn’t be able to go.


    “Send me the details and locations.


    I’ll make my choice,” she replied, knowing she needed to find a new home soon.


    Securing a new ce was preferable to facing eviction from Caden.


    After the call, she nced down, noticing that Cade was missing.


    A moment of panic gripped her as she started searching for him.


    Suddenly, a figure in white appeared in front of her.

    Alicia stopped and looked up to find Ynda standing there.


    Ynda, holding Cade in her arms, greeted Alicia with a smile.


    “Ms.


    Bet, we meet again.”


    Alicia watched Ynda warily as thetter gently petted Cade.


    Normally, Cade, who was usually cautious around strangers, wouldn’t have allowed anyone to hold him like this.


    But now, he was frozen, a wire tightly wound around his neck, its threat clear—one wrong move and it could cost him his life.


    Alicia was taken aback by Ynda’s ruthlessness.


    Ynda had set her sights on a dog!


    With her fists clenched, Alicia cautiously said, “Ynda, let’s sort this out.


    Please return the dog.”


    Ynda shed a harmless smile.


    “It’s so obedient.


    I tempted it over with some food.


    If only you were aspliant.”


    In a moment of distraction for Ynda, Alicia made her move.


    But instead of stepping back, Ynda tightened her grip on Cade.


    The dog whimpered as a faint red began to stain his fur.


    A pang of agony struck Alicia’s heart, forcing her to halt abruptly.


    “What do you want?” she demanded, her voice hardening.


    “If he suffers any harm today, I swear you won’t leave this neighborhood unscathed.”


    Ynda let out a softugh.


    “Was I not clear? Alicia, is it really so terrible to live without pride?”


    Alicia understood Ynda’s intentions well.


    ‘You came for Caden? Don’t worry.


    He will be yours in time.


    There’s no need to rush my departure.’


    Ynda asked, “Then why stay here? Are you unwilling to leave?”
