Chapter 83:

? ? ? ? ?

Alicia had grown accustomed to Caden's peculiar behavior, so she didn't feel the need to argue. Deciding to take the easy way out, she went ahead and ordered groceries for delivery.

“What do you want to eat?” I have asked, trying to keep it simple.

Caden, eyes closed, lazily replied, “Whatever. “I don’t care.”

Although he claimed to be indifferent, Alice already knew him well enough.

"How about some fish soup and a light beef stir-fry?" I have suggested.

As expected, Caden, always the picky eater, rejected his idea. “I don't like fish soup.”

“So, how about veal?” she offered.

"I don't want to see either."

Alice was surprised by his answer. She tried not to lose her patience and said: "You are sick and your throat hurts. How about something easy to digest? Maybe a light soup?"

"I'll get hungry again too soon. I have work later," he replied nonchalantly.

"In that case, eat something heavier," she countered.

"That will only make me run to the bathroom more. It's too much of a hassle."

Alice was getting more and more upset.

"What do you think of pasta? It would go well with mushrooms," I suggested.

“I hate the taste of mushrooms,” Caden replied flatly.

Through gritted teeth, Alice asked, "Then what on earth do you want to eat?"
