Chapter 766 

With a frown on the desperate expression on her face, Adelpha helplessly watched as Lyra swallowed the two large pieces of apricot almond cake.Oh, Momma! Why are you such a glutton?! she quietly cried.

"My dear sister." Elise shook the apricot almond cake in her hand, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as they glinted brightly.

"Would you like to try it too?"

"No, no! No need for that,"

Adelpha blurted out as she waved her hands aggressively.Every inch of her body was outwardly rejecting the offer.

"I-I have tried it in the cafe.I am so full that I can't take another bite now!"

"Is that so..."

Elise lowered her eyes in disappointment, but a smile remained plastered on her face the whole time.When she turned around, she looked at Lyra with a kind expression.

"Since Adelpha doesn't want to cat it and I have suddenly lost my appetite, please finish the pastries for me, Aunt Lyra"

Lyra froze for a second when she heard that.

Is this really happening? she wondered before she started coughing when she nearly choked.Her cough gradually calmed as she hit herself on the chest a few times.

Pretending to be as calm as an elderly would, she uttered, "If that is the case, I have no choice but to accept it."

"Mihm, lam sorry for troubling you!" Elise kept smiling while she replied.

Now that her taste buds were satisfied, Lyra then returned to the kitchen with the cakes in her hand with light steps.

As Adelpha worried that her mother would finish all the cake, she quickly went around Elise's back to give Lyra a warning without Elise knowing.She was only halfway there when Elise suddenly stood up, coincidentally standing face to face with her.

The smile Elise had on earlier had completely disappeared by then.

"Don't slack off, Adelpha.It will be tomorrow in a few more hours.I feel like having plum pudding tomorrow.You can go prepare to make it now"

Adelpha instantly felt her throat constrict when she heard that.

"Are you asking me to make it myself?"

"You won't do it?"

Elise put on a sad expression.
