    <span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?" Keith tilted his head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">What did he mean by this?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t you guys want to know what your father and mother look like when their face is pursed like that?" Michael''s expression was devious.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?" Derek and Keith began to ponder about this. Sophia and William making those faces? They were curious about it now.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Michael''s words made May and the knights curious as well. The Marquis and the Madam were always the type to maintain a calm expression. They got angry, and they showed that on their face.


    <span style="font-weight:400">But they never made a weird one.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Having their lips pursed like that would be interesting to see. But,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You''re ying with fire," Keith added. William and Sophia would probably be mad afterward.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"With you here, I doubt it." Keith was the protection shield.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith had nothing to say.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s going on?" And he couldn''t say anything either because the victims came. William and Sophia entered with Carter.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Wow, this ce is beautiful." This was the first time looking at the resting area.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thank you, Father." Keith smiled and added, "You can also use the area as a meeting room! It would be great and convenient."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"That''s a great idea." William smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Father, Keith gave us something to try. Please try it as well." Derek made the first move as he grabbed the te of lemons and handed it to the three.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith blinked a few times as he stared at Derek.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Brother, what are you doing?! Was he trying to seek death?!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith had forgotten who Derek was. Derek was the one who had death-seeking tendencies out of the four of them!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh." "This looks interesting." Not realizing Keith''s expression, William and Sophia stared at the lemon wedges.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Please try it." The three grabbed a wedge. But when they brought it up to their mouth, William looked up,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why are you guys looking at us like that?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">The knights, May, and their sons were staring at the three.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Nothing. We want to see if you guys like it." Michael exined, and the knights nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Strange. William found them odd. His wife was the same as well. The two were about to bite into it. But the expressions on the knights were way too off!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What are you guys thinking about?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Nothing. We-"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gahh!" Before they could shrug it off, Carter screamed out! They turned around to see Carter with pursed lips!


    <span style="font-weight:400">It looked horrible. William and Sophia turned back to the rest,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You guys wanted us to make a face like that?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Sir! This was all themander''s idea!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yes! He was the one who wanted to see you guys eat it!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yeah!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You all!" Michael red at the knights! How could they throw him under the bus?! He was the one who brought it up. But they were all aplices!


    <span style="font-weight:400">And he wanted to throw them all under the bus!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mother, Father, I tried to stop him! But he wanted to see you guys eat it!" Derek stated as he hid behind Sophia, trying to look innocent.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." This kid! Michael wanted to spank someone so much! Only the kid could save me now. Keith was his ultimate shield! But when Michael turned to Keith.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm? It needs more time to boil." Keith was the only one who wasn''t a part of this. He, Aria, Mir, and Fira had been staring at the pot!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." That ultimate shield knew how to escape as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Michael." A cold voice called his name. Michael turned his head and saw William with a smile. But his eyes weren''t smiling at all!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s been a while since we sparred."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And I need a new target for my magic," Sophia stated coldly as a fireball formed in her hand.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Meep!" Michael wanted to cry. Two monsters were going to end him. Michael''s screams resounded throughout the estate.


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">While Michael was chased by William, Keith looked down at the pot. The color of the water had be cloudy. Keith poured the mixture through a strainer, splitting the white beet from the water.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Need to get everything out. Keith took a cloth, wrapping the beets up, and pushed hard. He wanted to get all the liquid out of the beets!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Are we going to be drinking this, Keith?" Derek questioned. Keith shook his head, "We''re not drinking this. I''m going to simmer this down even more." There was too much liquid here. He was going to simmer it down even more to make the sugar.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith boiled the water. He stirred, trying his best not to let the bottom be burnt. While he was doing that, Fira and Mir started to y around the field.


    <span style="font-weight:400">They knew not to bother Keith right now as he was too focused. Aria sat at the table and watched Keith work. While he was doing that, the color of the water started to reduce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">And what was left in this pot was a caramel color. It was a little thickpared to what was there before. Keith nodded. Perfect color. It was the color he wanted.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, what did you make?" Sophia and William stared at Keith.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith tilted his head, "Mother, Father, are you done with Michael."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. He was a good target."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Poor Michael. But he deserved it as well.
