Cordelia eyed his fingers for a moment, questioning internally if he had washed his hands upon entering. Directly holding food with his hands, who knew how many germs there were?

As these thoughts flickered through her mind and she was about to inquire, her mouth barely opened before the cake was pushed into it.

The cloying sweetness flooded her mouth; the taste was indeed delightful. She bit into the piece, ready for another, when Everard directed the cake to his own lips and devoured the rest.

Cordelia was stunned and blurted out, “What are you doing?”

Everard’s lips curled into a smirk, his eyes narrowing slightly, “What’s the matter? We’ve already kissed, are you still shy about an indirect one?”

Cordelia was baffled, staring at him, not comprehending.

Nearby, Louie, upon hearing about the kiss, had a shadow pass over his eyes. He adjusted his glasses, a complex emotion flickering within.

Someone passed by, surprised, “Dr. Adams? I actually have a few questions to ask, if you have a moment?”

Louie nodded, “Of course.”

He casually walked off with the person, and once he was out of sight, Everard chuckled, ready to tease. Cordelia further, but Cordelia suddenly frowned, heading towards Lorna.
