nDesmond arrived in the kitchen; he saw lots of ice cream with irregular shapes lined up and standing on the dining table.

nDesmond was speechless. Looking at the ice cream shape, his appetite began to disappear.

nAlice, who heard the door open, immediately turned and looked at Desmond.

"Hey Desmond, I've made it. Give it a try!

"

nDesmond looked at one of the ice creams on the table.

"I'd better pretend to eat.

" Desmond peeked at Alice, only to see her staring at him with starry eyes.

nPray to God. I hope I'm not dead today.

nWithout taking a bite, Desmond swallowed the entire ice cream. Then he put the empty plate on the table.

n

"This is delicious, sis,

" Desmond replied with a bright smile while giving Alice a thumbs up.

nEven though Alice felt irritated when she saw Desmond swallow the ice cream straight away without even tasting it, her mood changed when Desmond said her ice cream was very delicious.

nAlice nodded.

"Good, I'll make more.

" She immediately turned around and continued making more ice cream.

nThe servant who taught Alice also tried the ice cream. One second… two seconds after a few seconds, the servant opened his mouth.

"Um ... young miss, actually, this ice cream needs a little change.

"

nAlice immediately stopped and looked at the servant strangely.

"Little change? Didn't my brother say it was delicious? Do you want to say that my brother lied to me?

"

nAlthough Alice's tone seemed to be questioning, it was obvious that she was very annoyed. The servant then glanced at Desmond.

nDesmond understood and stepped forward to defend the servant.

n* ehm *

n

"Sis, I did say that it was delicious. Even though it was delicious, every suggestion is precious.

"

nNow the servant looked at Desmond strangely.

nWhy can't young master say it honestly? This ice cream tastes like **.

nWhen Alice heard Desmond's words, her eyes became more and more sparkle. She tightly grasped the servant's hand, looking at the servant with awe.

"Okay, tell me your advice.

"

nAfter Alice got busy with the servant, Desmond went upstairs and headed straight to the bathroom without wasting any time.

nInside the bathroom, Desmond puked up all the contents of the ice cream he ate.

"That's dangerous. What other reason should I say to Alice if she told me to eat?

" Thinking about it for a moment, Desmond decided to take a shower first.

n...

nAfter exiting the bathroom, Desmond went into his room to change his clothes before returning to the dining room.

nWhen Desmond arrived, he saw that Alice was in the finishing stage.

"It's done, sis?

" Desmond asked with a trembling voice. He feared the ice cream taste.

nAlice, who heard Desmond's voice, replied excitedly without turning around.

"It will be over in a few seconds. Just wait at the table.

"

nDesmond then glanced at the servant beside Alice. The servant smiled as she waved a hand, which meant, 'It's fine.' So he sat down, waiting for the ice cream.

nOkay, I hope this time the ice cream taste isn't worse than the previous one.

n…

nAfter waiting for about five minutes, Alice entered the room, carrying a covered plate with a broad smile.

n

"Here is it, Desmond.

" Alice then put the plate in front of Desmond and sat down beside him.

nBefore Desmond ate it, he confirmed it again by staring at the servant, and the servant replied with the same gesture.

n* exhale * Looking at the covered plate, Desmond sees Alice order the servant to open it.

nWhen the plate was revealed, Desmond saw ice cream, like normal cream shaped like a melted mountain. It was sprinkled with some grated chocolate and mint daunts on the mountain's top.

nTaking a deep breath, Desmond takes a spoon and scoops out one of the outermost pieces of cream. Before he put it in his mouth, Desmond peeks at Alice.

nOh, my god, from her expression, this is definitely her best creation.

nThis time, Desmond devoured it slowly, trying to show that he was enjoying Alice's ice cream.

nDesmond seemed to have frozen after eating the cream. His eyes didn't blink, and his expression looked like he was in shock.

nAfter a few seconds waiting, Desmond's lips slowly moved.

"It's really delicious, sister!

" He ate it again until all the ice cream was gone. This time, Desmond acted from his conscience. He also ate this ice cream with a satisfied expression.

nWhen Alice saw and heard this, she became dumbfounded for a moment, and then a wide smile spread across her face.

n

"Of course, I created it,

" Alice said proudly.

nDesmond didn't correct it because this ice cream was really delicious, or maybe he had never eaten ice cream in his world before.

n* knock * * knock *

nWhile they were still chit-chatting, they heard the sound of people knocking on the main door.

nGuest rarely visited Desmond's house, particularly since Leona and Bastian had been gone, and this sudden arrival made him frown.

nDesmond looked at the servant seriously. The servant understood and went to open the door, intending to become a shield for Desmond and Alice.

n

"Alice, get ready.

" When Alice heard Desmond's tone, she begins to prepare her spell.

nSince the previous incident, Alice had become more mature. She wouldn't panic and cry anymore like before.

n…

nThe servant arrived at the door. The servant did not immediately open the door but asked first.

"umm...Hello, who is this?

"

n

"It's us.

"

nWhen the servant heard a familiar voice, she felt happy and stared at Desmond.

nDesmond also heard a voice that he had not heard in a long time. He nodded but remained on alert.

nThe door then opened, revealing a man and woman carrying lots of bags. When Alice saw this, she immediately runs and hugs the man.

n

"I've missed you so much, father, mother.

"

nDesmond, who saw this, followed Alice from behind before being hugged by Leona.

n

"Ah, my baby boy, how are you all?

"

nBastian and Leona smiled very broadly when they saw Desmond and Alice's condition was fine, and they could still smile after that incident.
