Chapter 38: The Box Of Cake

• The sense of loss in Cathryn's heart began to spread slowly until the car was out of sight. She was carrying the cake in her hand, but Cathryn did not seem very happy. Cathryn was about to go upstairs with the cake, and Stella had seen all of this.
• She was on the balcony watching the whole time. When she saw Cathryn coming into the house, she turned and walked into the living room. Cathryn had said she was going to buy yogurt, but she came back with a cake. As soon as she went into the living room, Mr.Riley immediately stood up and took the cake from Cathryn's hand.
• "It's impossible for my dear daughter to lose weight." Mr. Riley joked. Hearing his words, everyone in the living room started to laugh. After that, Mr. Riley went to the kitchen to fetch the dessert knife.
