I Love You More Cade by Coral Hume ( Nydia and Jackson) Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Nydia thought Orson’s reaction was a bit off, so she curiously asked, “Grandpa, do you know them?”

Dara came out of the kitchen at this moment, smiling as she said, “Sir, Madam, the dishes are almost ready. You can call Mr. Cade now.”

Nydia was taken aback. ‘Wasn’t the food supposed to be for me to improve my health? Why does Cade have a share in it?‘ she wondered.

“Nydia, call Cade and tell him to come home for dinner,” Orson said with a smile to Nydia.

Nydia clenched her fist, feeling reluctant.

They had such a big conflict in the morning, and she immediately called him for dinner in the evening. That was just weird.

With Cade’s temper, he probably wouldn’t even pick up the phone.

But Orson was staring at her, leaving her no choice but to call Cade.

Nydia mustered up the courage and gave Cade a call.

As expected, Cade didn’t pick up the phone.

With relief, Nydia said, “Grandpa, he may be busy. How about we eat first?”

Orson already had a rough idea in his mind. He said in a deep voice, “Send him a message on WhatsApp. Just tell him I’m here.” With that, he commanded Dara, “Keep cooking.”

“Yes, sir.” Dara turned and went into the kitchen.

Nydia furrowed her brows and opened WhatsApp.

Twenty minutes later, Cade showed up at the living room door.

Nydia sneered, thinking Orson was indeed influential enough to bring back the busy Cade.

“Grandpa,” Cade called out, looking at Nydia, only to see her completely ignore him and focus entirely on playing chess with Orson.

Orson nodded. Seeing the snow on Cade’s shoulder, he said to Nydia, “Go shake off the snow on his clothes.”

Knowing that Orson wanted to improve their relationship, Nydia was unhappy about it but still stood up and walked over to Cade. She grabbed his coat, pretended to shake it several

times, and then threw it onto the coat rack.

Cade’s face darkened, his hands unbuttoning the cuffs of his shirt, his dark eyes locked tightly onto the woman in front of him.

They were so close that Nydia couldn’t ignore his gaze even if she wanted to.

“What are you looking at?” she casually asked.

Cade sneered, “What did you give Grandpa to make him come all the way over here and personally call me back?”

Nydia was left speechless, thinking she shouldn’t have hoped for any nice words from Cade.

“It’s something that you’ll never get in your whole life.” Nydia rolled her eyes at Cade and walked away.

With a humph, Cade followed along.

Seeing the couple chatting with each other for a while, Orson felt content. He smiled and leaned back, saying, “Don’t just focus on work all the time. Pay attention to your life as well. Only when you’re in a good mood will the baby come quickly.”

‘No wonder he’s here to deliver some food. So it’s all for the great–grandson. Nydia felt helpless, but then she heard Cade calmly say, “You’re right, Grandpa.”

Nydia was totally shocked at his acting.

Orson didn’t expect Cade to answer so quickly. He was stunned for a moment before. bursting into laughter. “Alright, alright. With your words, I can finally feel relieved.”

‘if I were you, I wouldn’t feel relieved so quickly,‘ said Nydia inwardly.

Dara cooked a table of delicious food.

Nydia finally felt hungry. Especially when looking at the creamy clam chowder, she was almost drooling.

She was just about to get some when she heard Orson say, “Cade, help Nydia.”

Nydia froze in place, giving Cade a sidelong glance.

‘He serving me food? Never in a million years! Based on the extent of his disgust toward me, he will definitely pretend not to hear it or give me a look, saying that I should do it on my own. Forget it. Eating is such a wonderful thing. I should be happy and enjoy it. Don’t bring bad luck upon myself, she thought.

Nydia smiled and said to Orson, “It’s okay, Grandpa. I can handle it myself.”

She hadn’t even finished speaking when Cade suddenly stood up and took the bowl from her

hands.

While Nydia was astonished and Orson nodded approvingly, Cade served a full bowl of clam chowder to Nydia.

‘He must be crazy or just really good at acting. When did he start pleasing Orson so much?” Nydia was totally bewildered and couldn’t taste anything in the clam chowder at all.

Orson continued to give Cade a look, telling him to serve Nydia more dishes.

Cade stared at Nydia’s full plate, furrowing his eyebrows impatiently, but still served her a plate of fish, saying, “Eat more. Don’t starve yourself.”

Watching his impatient movements and disgruntled expression, Nydia turned her head. slightly toward him and whispered, “Can’t act anymore, can you?”

“Ain’t this the effect you want?” Cade sneered through gritted teeth.

“Then I want more fish.” Nydia’s eyes twinkled mischievously. “Have a little patience. Grandpa is watching.”

“Be sensitive,” retorted Cade.

‘Not cooperating? Watch this,’ said Nydia inwardly.

She sat up straight and pouted, “I want to eat fish, but I can’t reach it.”

Orson immediately called for Cade, “Cade, Nydia wants to eat fish, didn’t you hear?”

The tendons on Cade’s handback stood out from anger. He knew that it was never a good thing when this woman called for Grandpa.

“You have good hands. Do it yourself.” Cade wasn’t planning on spoiling her anymore.

‘Come on! It’s you being two–faced and acting all lovey–dovey at first. I didn’t ask you to do it,” thought Nydia.

Before Nydia could speak, Orson first voiced his displeasure, “Cade, Nydia just returned from a business trip, and it was very tiring. I heard it was even a wasted trip. As her boss and husband, you should be the one to care for her and comfort her the most.”

Nydia’s slightly cold smile returned to her previous indifference. “I’ll just do it myself. Thanks for your concern, Grandpa

Chapter 39

Cade could feel her change. A hint of unknown meaning flashed in the depths of his eyes

“Good kid, you’re so considerate. Cade is somewhat laid–back; don’t lower yourself to his level. Orson spared no effort in praising Nydia in front of Cade, also making excuses for Cade’s indifference.

Chewing fish, Nydia didn’t say anything, thinking putting two people who didn’t love each other together was giving Orson a headache.

“Your house looks so deserted without even a servant around. I bet you hardly get a decent meal. So, I brought Dara here today. She will be taking care of you from now on. Is that okay?” Orson said, then he glanced at Dara.

Dara immediately understood. She hurried forward and bowed. “Mr. Cade, Mrs. Nydia, just let me know if you need anything in the future.”

Cade was sitting there in silence, not showing much emotion

Nydia nodded slightly and said. “Okay”

She knew what Orson meant by arranging for Dara to be here, not only could she not refuse. but she should be happy about it.

However, she couldn’t get happy.

She was always seen as a scheming woman in Cade’s eyes, and today. Orson himself came knocking on the door. In Cade’s eyes, she was already up to something fishy, and now with Dara being involved by Orson. Cade was even more convinced that this whole string of events falling into place was all part of her scheme.

Nydia casually glanced at Cade and saw the sarcasm in his eyes as she expected
