A Bird in the Cage novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Having a Meal

Ryan didn’t like complimenting other people. However, he always finished all the food she made for him as his special way to appreciate her cooking skills.

Seeing that he enjoyed the food she made, Catherine felt like a contented wife.

Those were things that had happened a long time ago. She already decided never to cook for him again.

“Hey, I’m talking to you. Answer me! Don’t be so rude,” he said while poking her sides.

“I’m tired. If you’re hungry, the doors are open. Go and find your own food,” she answered sullenly.

“I want to eat here today!” Reaching out his arm, he flipped her around. He wasn’t used to talking to someone’s back.

“Go ahead!”

“What am I going to eat?”

“That’s up to you. I don’t have the strength to cook.”

“Then cook for me tonight. I’ll ask Luca to send food over for lunch.” She didn’t seem to have much strength left, so he decided to take the second-best option.

He hadn’t eaten her dishes for quite some time now, so he missed them.

“I won’t cook dinner for you. Listen, I won’t cook for you anymore.”

“How dare you!”

“Why not? No matter how powerful you are, you can’t control my hands. According to the contract, it’s not my responsibility to cook for you, remember?”

“Use the contract to defy me! I’ll make you suffer if you try to defy me next time!”

Ryan was furious. He then stood up and left right after spitting out his sentence.

After he left, Catherine’s stomach growled. She wanted to get up and cook, but her whole body was so sore that she couldn’t even move.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard the doorbell ringing.

There were usually no visitors at all, so she found it strange. After getting up from the bed, she tidied

her clothes and ran to the door.

Luca was standing outside the door, holding a box of food in his hand.

“Mr. Walker asked me to bring you food. He said you’ll only be able to do your job well on a full stomach.” Once he finished speaking, he placed the food on the ground and turned to leave.
