A Bird in the Cage novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31 Was It Ryan

If she continued asking, it would put her parents in a difficult situation, but if she didn’t, she wouldn’t be able to resolve her problem with Ryan.

Opening her mouth, Catherine let her mother feed her. Chewing her food, Catherine complimented it.

At that point, her parents thought that she had given up so they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After she swallowed her food, she suddenly mentioned, “I remembered Ryan.” Then, she observed her father because he was good at lying.

Back then, Ryan had told her that she lost her virginity when she was 18, and he even had said he hated her. Kevin also mentioned that there was a man calling her Cath pretty endearingly by her

side on the night of the accident.

Because of all this, Catherine inferred that she had been once in love with Ryan and they were together at one point in time. Later, that man appeared and she fell for him instead. That was probably why Ryan hated her.

However, she was only 18 years old at the time. Although all this shouldn’t have been possible, that was the only explanation to connect all the dots so

far.

“Ryan? Do you mean the President Walker of Walker Group and Luca’s boss?” her father asked.

“Of course.”

“What did you remember about him?” Winnie asked, her expression no longer nervous.

“I was in a relationship with him before the car

accident, right?” The whole time, Catherine only paid attention to her father’s expression since she was sure that she would get her answers from him.

But his expression did not change at all. He didn’t looked surprise when he knew she knew the truth. This made Catherine feel strange.

“You were so young when you had the accident, young lady. Why would you be in a relationship? Besides, we didn’t know anyone from Walker Group at the time so you definitely wouldn’t have known Ryan.”

At that moment, Catherine could tell that her father was not lying. After all, he was an incredibly honest person and Catherine could trust that much.

“But-“Before she could say another word, her cellphone rang. It was Luca.

You…” Upon hearing that, Catherine was so angry that she choked.

Although Luca was only an assistant, he was Ryan’s right-hand man. When Catherine’s parents had almost gone bankrupt before, they were very happy that Catherine was able to find such a nice man to care for her.

“Drink with me tonight, Luca,” Mr. Green said at the table.
