Chapter 21


    Soon, Alice started getting busy in the kitchen.


    William was sitting on the sofa. He was still skeptical about Alice’s cooking. From time to time, William came closer to


    Daniel and whispered, “Daniel, I should probably ask Jane and the serv ants to send some food or order takeouts over


    here?


    William thought, “Alice has a busy schedule as an actress. When does she have opportunities on the usual days? I


    don’t think she can cook.”


    However, just as William finished his words, the fragrances of the food perv aded the ce.


    William blinked and said, “Daniel, did you smell that? The food is not bad.”


    Daniel did not say a word. Instead, he looked at Alice, who was busy in the kitchen. He thought, “Well. Alice does look


    like she can cook.


    “But maybe she just acts it. After all, she’s an actress.”


    Alice finished many dishes and ced them on the table about 40 minutester.


    There were oven-baked ribs, grilled lobster tails with lemon, crawfish monica, garlic-butter steak bites, and others.


    Most dishes were meat, but the vegetables also looked tasty. The disy was as delicate as if it was at a five-star


    restaurant.

    Daniel was surprised to see so many dishes on the table. What’s more, they looked delicate and smelled good.


    Daniel thought, “I didn’t expect this woman to be so good at cooking.”


    As for William, he was so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw. It even took him a while to


    return to reality from his shockness. Then he immediately took out his phone to take photos.


    Williamplimented. “Wow! Alice, look at these dishes! They smell so good and look


    delicate! Did you want to be a chef before?”


    Alice smiled when she heard that and poured hot corn juice for the kids. After that, she


    exined, “When I studied abroad, I worked with a chief as an apprentice to earn my tuition


    fees. I did learn cooking from the chief during that time.”


    William replied, “You can cook all these after you learned cooking as an apprentice? You are


    talented!” When speaking, William was editing the photos and nned to post them on


    Instagram.


    William thought, “This is unbelievable. How can I not show off my sister-inw to others?”


    William suddenly found desserts that he had never seen before. Thus, he immediately asked,


    “Alice, what are these desserts?”


    “Pecan pie mu ffins,” replied Alice.


    William cried, “Wow! You can even make that?” Then he curiously came closer to Alice and


    asked, “Do you learn how to bake these to win a man’s heart through his stomach?”


    Alice’s smile froze when she heard that. However, she quickly recovered to normal and


    exined, smiling, “My family likes them. So, I learn how to bake them from a professional chef.


    I baked them before I went to work this morning. Have a try.”


    Hearing Alice’s exnation, Daniel narrowed his eyes. Soon, coldness gradually appeared in


    those eyes.


    Daniel thought, “Family?


    “Does it refer to Alice’s immediate family or someone who had been into her heart?


    “Did Alice love another man before?”


    William gasped andplimiented. “Wow! Alice, the pecan pie mu ffins you made taste so


    good!” When speaking, he gave each of the kids a puffin and asked them to taste this delicious


    food.


    The three kids eyes immediately lit up when they took a bite of the mu ffins. “Mommy, you’re


    amazing!”


    “This is so good!”


    Alice picked up a mu ffin and handed it to Daniel, asking, “Daniel, would you like to try one?”


    Unexpectedly, Daniel refused without changing his expression. “I don’t like sweet or sour food.


    I don’t eat coriander. I don’t eat chili threads…


    Alice raised her eyebrows and interrupted Daniel’s long list, “Wow. You’re too picky.”


    William murmured inside, “You don’t say. This is Daniel. Of course, he is picky.”


    Then Alice said, “These are the crab-vored pecan pie mu ffins. They are my new ideas. These


    mu ffins are either sweet or sour. Would you like one? When speaking, Alice served more mu


    ffins on the table.


    Daniel saw Alice pinch a crispy pecan pie mu ffin with her beautiful fingers. His eyes were full of


    confusion. He thought, “I have refused Alice. However, she even found a mu ffin that was either


    sweet or sour.

    Chapter 21


    “Is Alice trying to please me?


    “William and my kids are watching me. It seems inappropriate if I keep rejecting Alice.


    “If so, I can force myself to try one.”


    Thinking of these, Daniel was about to raise his hand and take the mu ffin.


    However, when Daniel was thinking, Alice also did the same. She thought, “Daniel is cold. If he


    refuses the first time, he won’t ept it the second time.”


    Therefore, before Daniel could raise his hand, Alice handed the mu ffin to William. He was


    burying his face in the food just like the kids did. Alice said, “William, here you are. Try this mu


    ffin!”


    William cried, “Wow. Thank you, Alice! You’re so nice!”


    Daniel’s hand was in the air. He thought, “Didn’t Alice notice I raised my hand and was about to


    take it?”
