A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1113

After setting Liana on the dining chair, Tyler squatted in front of her and gently stroked her hair. "What do you fancy eating?" he asked softly.

Liana, clearly not in the mood, replied coldly, "I don't want to eat anything."

Tyler's hand paused for a moment, then started from the back of her head and touched her lips, "Didn't we agree that you should treat me as before, be gentle with me." How had she treated him before? Back then, she was always sweet and loving, constantly declaring her love for him and lavishing him with affection. Did she need to act like this now just to get her freedom?

A hint of disgust flashed in Liana's eyes, but she forced a smile. "I'll have a cheese sandwich, beef, and orange juice..."

Finally, Tyler's face lit up with satisfaction. His long fingers stroked her hair again, like petting a small bird. "That's more like it."

He expected Tyler to head to the kitchen alone, but he brought her along and had her sit on the clean counter. He then closed the kitchen door, and the two of them were enclosed in this space, before he slowly roll up his sleeves and start preparing the food.

He probably feared she might grab a knife or something to attack him, so all the cutlery was unusually small, unlikely to cause harm. And Liana wasn't stupid enough to fight against a tall, powerful man like Tyler with such tiny utensils. She stood no chance.

Anger swelled in Liana's heart, but Tyler seemed in high spirits. He cooked a steak and immediately cut off a piece of it, offering it to Liana's lips.

"Try it. How does it taste?"

Liana had deceived him for years. They had shared moments like this before, but back then there was no disgust in Liana's eyes. Now, she forced her mouth open, chewing the food he fed her silently, eating without a word.

Tyler didn't seem upset. He tousled her hair as if dealing with a playful child, then turned to make the orange juice.

They hadn't had this food on the island before, so Tyler must have gone shopping that morning. This meant that after they finished eating, he would have to go out again. During that time, she could grab the gun and make her escape.

Liana glanced out the window. There was a boat in the distance, but Tyler would certainly take it when he left the island, rendering it useless to her. To escape, she needed to get the gun first, then threaten Tyler to let her go. She could also wait for a month, but she didn't trust Tyler.
