Chapter 1026:
“Yes, | threw it out,” Alicia nodded.
She then headed toward the kitchen. “Don’t worry. It’s not too messy. | can still retrieve it for you.”
Caden was stunned. Expecting a joke, he was taken aback when she actually returned with the breakfast.
Expressionless, Caden said, “Thanks, but you really didn’t have to do that.”
Alicia fought back a chuckle. “Go on and eat. It's probably cleaner than bird droppings, right?”
Caden gave her a piercing look.
Alicia inwardly chuckled, recalling the earlier incident of him being splattered by bird droppings, though she kept
her composure. “Just kidding. | didn’t throw it away. | thought you weren't eating, so | put it in the microwave.”
Caden looked down. The breakfast was perfectly arranged, and the warmth still lingered. Emotion washed over
him as he ate with earnest intensity.
Looking up from his meal, he realized Alicia had already left.

scheduled in Warrington. I've secured the top cardiac specialist to oversee everything.”
Gemma blinked back tears, her voice wavering. “Thank you, Alicia. | hate that | keep causing you problems.”
Alicia tousled her hair affectionately, smiling gently. “What are you saying? You're the brave one here.”
Soon after, Pierre entered. “Ms. Bennett, Mr. Ward is waiting outside for you.”
Alicia had not anticipated Caden’s arrival. With the heart transplant plans moving forward, there was much to
organize. Not wanting to delay, Alicia excused herself to join Caden. She found him just outside Gemma’s ward.
Teasingly, Alicia asked, “Are you keeping such a close watch because you're worried | might sneak off for a secret
meeting with Corey?”
Caden’s expression clouded over. He knew her comment was sparked by frustration, but it still unsettled him.
Trying to justify himself, he replied stiffly, “I'm not following you. | just cto visit Gemma.”
Alicia laughed lightly. “Since when did you and Gemma becclose?”
“Is it so strange forto show a sudden act of kindness?”
“Then, by all means, go see her’
