After another list was provided, he added, “My stomach can’t handle spice. Something sweeter, perhaps?”
The waiter suggested a few more dishes.
Caden murmured distractedly, “Hmm, that sounds good.” The waiter, eager to please, suggested, “Would you

Caden responded, nodding toward Alicia, “No, just bringthe sas her.”
The waiter was momentarily puzzled.
Gemma had been bathing daily, but she postponed it for two days following her surgery. Unable to bear it any
