Alicia's face clearly showed irritation. If Caden hadn't taken advantage of her earlier, she might have agreed
without hesitation. After all, what was the problem with feeding someone soup? It would only take about ten
minutes.
However, Caden was a cunning fox. She knew it could take at least half an hour to finish. Suppressing her
frustration, Alice tried to keep her tone even. “You've tormentedenough. Are you still not satisfied? We're
both busy, so eat quickly, givewhat | want, and we can part on good terms, okay?”
Caden replied sharply, "If the situation were the other way around, would you letoff the hook so easily?"
Alicia looked shocked. She couldn't help but imagine herself in her place. If the day ever cwhen she had the
upper hand over Caden, forcing him to swallow his pride and beg for her mercy...
Normally he exuded arrogance, constantly looking down on everyone around him. However, if she threatened
him, he would have no choice but to obey her every command. Just thinking about it made her want to laugh out
loud.
But when she snapped back to reality and saw Caden's imposing face, her irritation only intensified. Right now,
he was the one enjoying the situation. She was the one who felt like the joke in this whole scenario.
Alice clenched her fingers. The last remnants of her hesitation prevented her from acting.
Caden nonchalantly commented, “You've worked so hard to get what you want. Are you really going to throw in
the towel now, right at the finish line?”
As he spoke, his voice took on a low, soothing tone. It was almost comforting, if it weren't for the underlying
tension between them. It seemed to Alice that he was only adding to the flames.

least show a little appreciation for my effort?” | have asked.
Caden smiled. “Sorry, but friendliness isn’t my thing.”
Alice was speechless.
He said it with such conviction. That was Caden.
Suddenly, Caden looked toward the kitchen. “If you don't hurry, the soup will get cold, and that will ruin the
flavor. “You'll have to make it again.”
Alicia clenched her jaw in frustration. Noticing her stubbornness, Caden nonchalantly pulled out his phone and
sent her another email. “I've already given you two-thirds.”
Alice pursed her lips, reluctantly heading to the kitchen. Fortunately, there wasn't much soup left, just one bowl.
It wouldn't take long to finish it.
As Alice looked at the fragrant pear soup, she regretted washing over her. To tell the truth, making this soup to
relieve his cough had not been part of his original plan. She simply felt sorry for him, knowing that he had a cold
and that no one was looking after him. Her intention had been to show him a little kindness, if only for a
moment.
Now it seemed to her that she was asking for trouble. The more she tried to take care of Caden, the worse his
attitude became.
Alice determinedly pushed the soup over to him, took a spoonful and brought it awkwardly to his mouth. “Open
up,” she ordered.
Caden commented, “You look like an evil maid tormenting a disabled old man.”
Alice countered: “If you were really disabled, | would beca male caregiver.”
"Why would you do that? Are you planning to beatup?"
"No, I'd just take it out and piss in your mouth."
This time, she was speechless. Where had | gotten such insults from? He really lacks manners, she thought.
With trunning out, Alice held the spoon up to her mouth. “Eat it.”
Caden sighed. “Is this how you feed someone? What happened to your so-called politeness? “I thought you took
lessons for that.”
“I learned that from Joshua. What does that have to do with you?” Alice snapped.
Caden's expression darkened. “Oh, of course. “He's your beloved man,” he said grimly.
This time, she bit her tongue.
“So Joshua is the reason you want information about Randolph? That information won't benefit him at all,” Caden
added.
Alicia looked into her eyes, feeling her heart racing. She sensed a hint of irritation in Caden, but couldn't pinpoint
its source.
