The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1180 Cake Spree





While Zhao Li Xin and Hugo were having a long complicated and intense discussion, our daughter was now pressing her forehead against the cake display stand.

"Is there anything I can help you with, miss?" the shop assistant's lip twitched but she managed to maintain a professional smile.

Lory was startled and then realized that she had been staring at the cake stand for almost fifteen minutes like a weirdo, no wonder the shop assistant looked a bit uneasy.

"Um, can I have a dozen macaroons?" Lory straightened her back and then clear her throat like nothing happen.

The shop assistant smiled broadly "Oh sure, what flavor do you like?" he took the box and started serving Lory.

"Three salted caramels, three red velvet, three bubble gums, and... three dark chocolates" Lory chose the last flavor for her dearest husband who doesn't like sweets but maybe he would appreciate this taste since she knew this was Zhao Li Xin's favorite taste, bitter.

"Okay, this is all? We just release a new cake flavor, very-berry, if you like sweet and sour taste, then this is for you" The shopkeeper entices her.

Lory who has a severe weakness for desserts can only say "Yes, can I have one piece please"

"Oh we're also having twenty percent off and for today only if you buy three will you get one free whatever flavor you choose?" the shop assistant smiled invitingly.

Lory sneered inwardly 'Oh hello capitalism'

Lory exaggeratedly pointed her index finger at the window stand "Then give me the strawberry cheesecake, lemon cake, also very- berry cake, and for the free cake I want a three-layer cookies ice cream cake with extra chocolate cream!" the anticipation hit her like a whirlwind making her whole face beamed with excitement.

"OKAY!~" The shop assistant answered with the same excitement.

Lory came out of the cake shop with a satisfied look, he just realized he had too many bags in his hand, not only clothes but books for Zhao Li Xin who wants to study Harlandish also geography and social books for Zhao Li Xin to learn about this world, Thank goodness in Lory's hardware store could get a maid to send some items that were too big for her to carry to Hamilton Manor.

Lory chuckled remembering the face of the shopkeeper who wrote down the address.

Lory checked the time on her cell phone, it seemed she had taken too long to shop, even though most of it was hunting and camping gear and desserts. She had to admit that she was shopping for cookies. Lory saw her reflection in the window pane. He felt his thighs look bigger than before.

'Have I gained weight?' Lory subconsciously checked her buttocks from the shop window,  she realize her buttock seemed rounder than the usual "Yikes!"

Lory wasn't someone who would gain weight easily but Fred said considering how much candy he ate each day it was a miracle he didn't gain weight, but fearing it would become a bad habit his father decided to limit Lory's consumption of sweets and while living in world cultivator Zhao Li Xin also kept tabs on Lory's obviously unhealthy food habits.

But in Lory's opinion, the sweets in cultivation's world were much healthier and have less sugar compared with the sweets in her world, just look at the amount of sugar in a single piece of cake, there is icing sugar, caramel, and thick whipped cream at the top of the cake.

Alright, this meant she had to step up her training, oh, wrong! She should start exercising again, Lory's shoulders dropped weakly even though she used training since she was a kid but she did it not because she liked it but because she had to, to be honest, she didn't like it....oh whatever, taking care of her body was also something she had to do, she will not be able to fly with excess fat on her buttocks.

Lory stared at the sumptuous bag of desserts pondering what the old bird would say to her, obviously Girsha would scold her for buying too many cakes, once Girsha remarked that if the enemy ever put poison in her cakes they would manage to kill her but Lory scoffed saying she got healing gift so she wouldn't die.

It was then that everyone realized Lory had a problem since then  Fred would make any excuse just to limit her desserts.

"Are you kidding me!"

"Lilly, what are you doing to Linda?!"

"Ron, please don't blame Miss Hamilton, this is all my fault!"

"Unbelievable!" she let out an exaggerated sigh.

Lory looked left and right but she saw no one fighting then she look up, and it seemed the voice coming from the balcony on the second floor of the cake store.

The sound of arguing was getting louder but people only give quick glances over the balcony before passing by without care. Because the balcony was on the second floor and the railing was high enough so no one knew who is arguing but Lory knew for certain this was Lilly's voice besides they called Lilly and Hamilton's names so there was no need to guess.

"I didn't do anything, why was she crying?" Lilly's voice was coated with anger and frustration.

"This is because you accused us of having an affair the other day so she feels guilty but you scold her!!" the man's voice filled with accusations.

"Miss Hamilton, please believe me, the other day Ron only helps me " There's another female voice that sounds timid but sultry at the same time.

"How? by putting his tongue in your mouth!" Lily screamed sarcastically.

"You!"

Lory didn't know what was arguing but from the sound of her voice, Lilly sounded frustrated.

'Ah little missy is in trouble' Lory thought

the second floor never bothered him even without summoning wind power. Lory easily climbed over the wall then swung over the ledge and landed on the railing smoothly.

Lilly and the other two were surprised by his sudden presence.

"You all right, Lilly?" Lory only cares about Lily's safety after all her family is their current employer.

Lilly's brown eyes widened in surprise. "Ra...Raven?" Lilly didn't know how she got here, but even so, she was overcome with a sudden feeling of comfort and relief.

"Who... who are you, how can you not be here, are you trespassing?!" Ron scolded while pointing his finger at Lory.

Lory used her finger to brush the messy hair off her face, her fake green eyes glistening under the sunlight, the Smokey eyes makeup only make the shape of her eyes more distinct and add a sense of allure and sexiness, all of a sudden the young man's heart skip a beat.

Lory jump from the fence and then walked toward Lilly "I heard your voice from below so I got worried..." Lory didn't want Lilly to think she was nosy.

Lilly smile brightly "Thank you Raven" Suddenly the stuffy feeling she felt just a minute ago disappeared and was replaced by tranquility, Lilly knew it because the aura that came from Lory is very gentle and soothing.

Lorry caught a glimpse of a light blonde in a floral shirt in a maroon suit, it actually not so bad if only he didn't wear so much gold jewelry, and why Lory felt he wear more jewelry than the last time did he have any plans to sell it later?

Beside him was a young woman wearing a body-hugging gray dress that revealed a voluptuous body and ample cleavage. There was no denying that the woman was an absolute stunner with long, wavy black hair that reached her waist, big red lips, and dark green almond-shaped eyes, it's no wonder he would easily seduce.

"Hey who are you, this is no place for someone like you, get out of here!" Ron snapped out of his daze and continued to blame Lory.

Lory didn't care about flashy boys and their boyfriends but Lilly couldn't take it anymore, "Shut up Ron, you don't belong here!" anger flared up on Lilly's good-natured face, "You're interrupting my free time, now catch your whore and get out of here!"

Confused, Ron tried to persuade "Lilly, please... I know you are mad, but don't let jealousy ruin our relationship, I know you still love me" While pleading, his elbow subtly nudged the girl beside him.

The sexy girl was clearly displeased unfortunately she already make promises to coax Lilly, if it wasn't because this man's last name that would guarantee her a luxurious life, she wouldn't want to date this loathsome man.

"Mm Lily, we've been friends for so long, please trust me what you saw yesterday was only spur of the moment it wasn't serious at all, it just...a mistake" Tears welled up in her eyes she looked so pitiful if people saw this they might think it was Lilly bullying her.

"Lilly please believe me, we were drunk that day, I didn't want to hurt you so I lied, but it's because I love you! I really love you, I want to marry you!" Ron knelt while declaring his sincere love.

Lory felt goosebumps looking at him, even in the cultivation world where men still adhered to the concept of chivalry and traditional romanticism, still, Lory had never seen any man do this, and above all, it was so cringe.
