My Daughter-in-Law Made Me Eat from a Dog Bowl,So I Took Everything BackChapter 1

My husband was sick, lying in a hospital bed, craving homemade noodles. All I wanted was to use my son's kitchen to cook a couple of meals.

Cary Delgado hemmed and hawed. "Yvonne and I don't really cook. Why don't you just buy something from a restaurant?"

I kept asking until he finally gave in and took me back to his place.

His wife, Yvonne Fox, opened the door with a sour expression, her reluctance written across every feature.

After I finished cooking, Yvonne walked into the kitchen and handed me two bowls.

"Mom, these are for you and Dad. I have a thing about germs. I don't share dishes with other people."

I ate, cleaned up after myself, gathered my things, and headed out.

When I stepped into the elevator, I realized I'd left my phone behind. I turned back to get it.

I hadn't made it through the door when I heard Yvonne's voice, cold and sharp.

"Cary, this time I let her eat out of the dog bowl. Next time, I won't be so generous."

My whole body began to shake. I grabbed the door handle to keep from collapsing.
