When Cindy gave a clear explanation, Morgan agreed that it made a lot of sense.
"Alright then." Morgan found her reasoning quite solid, so he nodded in agreement.
"Cindy, where's the red velvet cake you made for me?" asked Morgan immediately.
"There you go." Cindy pointed to the cake on the table. "The cake just came out of the oven. It's still hot. We need to wait for it to cool down before we can add the cream. Otherwise, the cream would melt. That's why I haven't whipped it yet."
"After dinner, I'll whip the cream. Once it's spread on and topped with fruits, it will be ready to eat," said Cindy with a smile.
With that, Morgan's dream of having his dessert early was shattered.
However, Cindy did prepare some cheese sticks for him to snack on.
Because even on a normal workday, Adrian wouldn't be home until around 7.
And by that time, Morgan would be hungry.
So she wanted to give him something to tide him over.
It wasn't until shortly after 7 o'clock that Adrian came home.
