Chapter: 625

As he closed the door, Cade trailed right behind him, not wanting to be left behind.

Caden stopped, finding Cade's persistence irritating.

“Go find your mom!" Caden snapped.

Cade, looking pitiful, Lifted his paw and pointed at his bowl.

It was empty.

Cade was hungry.

With a stern expression, Caden ripped open the bag of dog food, letting Cade eat his fill.

After leaving the apartment, Caden randomly picked a nearby restaurant for dinner.

To his surprise, as soon as he stepped inside, he saw Gerry, that annoying guy, having dinner with his friends.

Gerry's seat faced the entrance.

So, he immediately spotted Caden.

"Well, well, look who it is-Mr. Ward?" Gerry smirked mischievously.

"What brings you here for dinner?"

Caden stayed silent.

Hearing Gerry's greeting, his friends joined in, respectfully acknowledging Caden.

Caden walked over with a calm demeanor.

Gerry signaled the waiter to bring an extra set of tableware.

He then poured Caden a drink himself, chuckling as he whispered, "Did Alicia kick you out?"

Caden replied without a hint of emotion, “That won't happen, not in a million years."

"Then why aren't you eating at home?" Gerry asked.

“Just wanted a change of taste," Caden answered.

He took a glass of wine and drank it before touching any food.

His empty stomach churned as the alcohol mixed with the acid.

But strangely, he felt a bit better.

Gerry continued his teasing, "You want a change of taste? What a coincidence. So do I. Wouldn't it be a shame if no one enjoyed the big meal Alicia made? I think I'll go over, so her hard work doesn't go to waste."

Caden kept his face blank. "Gerry, are you nuts?"

Gerry couldn't hold back anymore and slapped the table, bursting into laughter.

That evening, Alicia had plans to dine with Monica.

As Alicia was about to leave, her assistant knocked and came in, looking uneasy. "Ms. Bennett, there's an old client here, and I'm not sure how to handle it."

Hearing this, Alicia asked, "Why?"
