Ms. Sally suddenly asked, "Mr. Lucero, have you had dinner?"
Kenneth's fingers froze before he quickly retracted them. He put his hand into his trouser pocket and
calmly said, "I ate dinner at the company."
"Bella and Sharon made some pecan pies today. Would you like to try them?"
Kenneth turned to look at her and asked, "Did they make pecan pies?"
"Yes, I will heat some for you."
Seeing him interested, Ms. Sally quickly went downstairs.
...
Ms. Sally brought the pecan pies into the dining room and said, "Mr. Lucero, please enjoy them."
When Kenneth looked over, his thick eyebrows furrowed. Ms. Sally had brought six pecan pies over.
Three were crooked and ugly. And the others were good-looking but in the shape of a pig. The two big
ears and noses made them lifelike. And they seemed to say he was a pig.
Ms. Sally covered her mouth and smiled, "Sharon has lived for decades. I have accompanied her from
a rich young lady to the hostess of the Lucero family. After decades of ups and downs, she has never
made pecan pies. When Bella taught her how to make pecan pies, she was happy. Of course, the ugly
ones were made by her. Bella made these pretty ones. She is handy, so the pecan pies she made are
good-looking."
Kenneth smiled, "Why did she make them into the shape of a pig?"
"She said you were as cute as a pig!"
She was scolding him!
Kenneth picked up a pig pecan pie with his fork and put it in his mouth. It was shrimp-flavored and
tasted good.
Ms. Sally asked with a smile, "Is it nice?"
Kenneth swallowed it and nodded, "Yeah."
It was delicious. It was the best pecan pie he had ever eaten.

The basketball game officially started today. The students from all the universities in Faykarta came to
Cube Square early in the morning. All the basketball players had changed into their uniforms. The other
students were waving the flags and cheering for their schools. The atmosphere was electric and full of
youth.
Mr. Pannell met Kramer from Teaganian University again, his old schoolmate. Kramer smiled, "Mervyn,
long time no see. Why did your hair become less? Is it because you have been under too much
pressure recently?" This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
The presidents and directors of other universities were Kramer's friends, so they all chimed in.
"Mervyn, you don't need to feel pressured. Be open-minded. After all, you are always the second best.
This game this year will be no exception."
"Mervyn, you should worry more about the upcoming examination. No, you don't need to worry.
Anyway, you will be bottom. No one can snatch that place from you!"
Mr. Pannell was used to such words. They always laughed at him together with Kramer. So, he coldly
flicked his sleeve, raised his head, and confidently said, "Wait and see! We will win first place this time!"
"Mervyn, wake up! It's daytime! Stop dreaming!"
No one believed him. And they laughed at him again.
Mr. Pannell was so angry that he lost his temper.
