Chapter 140: SERVED WITH SALT AND PEPPER

"Momma, I only wanted the guest to taste the yummy cake that Grandma had made for me."

And hearing that, Dove narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "And did you add anything to it?"

Hearing this, Gavi’s eyes shook and he blinked innocently before looking at the other elders and then pitifully lowered his head and said, "I did not put anything bad in it. I only served the cakes in the plate." Gavi took a small pause, and added just when they frowned in confusion, "And I just added a little bit of salt and pepper. Don’t you sometimes sprinkle it on our dishes, and say that it makes the taste better? I also want to make the taste even better."

"..."

SILENCE! There was what they call stunned silence.

No one spoke rather, they had their mouths parted speechless. And the Davis’ family? They did not even know how to react. Salt and pepper?! No wonders their mouths were burning like that. And also the cake tasted so horrible.

"What?!" Philip was the first one to gasp hearing that and soon the other two too recovered from their shock and their face soured. Cara was as always ready to jump in with her sharp and fierce tongue.

"This boy! This boy, I knew he had something evil going on in his mind! He wanted to poison us! What a evil little kid h-"

"Shut up, Mrs Cara Davis!" It was Dove who said at once! Her voice not letting anyone speak anything. Cara’s words stuck in her mouth for a second, before she came back to her senses. Her face reddening again. This time both in humiliation and anger.

How dare she call her by her name! That too in front of both the families! This is again when Dove is humiliating her again in front of people?! Moreover what wrong was she saying?! First of al, her son would try to feed them sometimes so horribly bad, almost poisoned! And then when she was calling him out, she dare to react like this!

Cara huffed, before she frowned and said at once, "What?! Now I can’t even call out your son for doing something like this?! What? You don’t have any respect for your elders and now you are teaching your evil son to be just like you!?"

Hearing her say that, Dove gritted her teeth. Cara Davis was now over doing it! And the next second, she tilted her head towards the side, before smirking and she took a step in front and whatever Cara, Philip or Roan were about to speak, they kept to themselves.

And Dove said, "First of all, be it elders or juniors, respect is not given. It is earned. If the elders are not worthy of respecting, I would rather not be courteous.

And secondly, I have already told you once and I tell you again, Cara Davis, refrain yourself from talking about my son! Specially anything ill. Moreover, Gavriel is just a three years old kid!

He doesn’t know any better. He was just trying to be hospitable, though you did not deserve it. And in doing so, even if he made a mistake, you all can perhaps scold him, or teach him not to do it again. But calling him evil? A little kid shouldn’t be called that?! And specially my son! I wouldn’t allow anyone to do it!"

The Davis’ family opened their mouths and closed it. Even Cara couldn’t find anything tj refute. Especially when they turned to look at the little kid, who looked back at them with big innocent eyes.

Philip averted his gaze from the kid, deciding to bring the topic away from the child, as it would be too nonsensical and hamperihg for his family to fight over a thing that a three years old did.

Let’s get the thing done, for what they were here for.

"Dove! What do you mean by that? And how can you call Cara by her name? This is going overboard now, Dove! Not only have you been humiliating our family silently since yesterday. But now you are blatantly disrespecting my wife in front of us all!" Philip whipped his head to look at Senior Sterling and gritted his teeth. Moreover this old man did not even utter a single syllable all this while!

What were they really thinking!

Hearing him say that, Dove smirked before she looked at the three of the Davis’ family members and snorted, and said, "We will get into that, but for the last time I am saying, no one should ever say anything like that about my son again."

She turned towards Gavi then, whose lips had turned downwards, and he looked at them all with slightly shaking innocent eyes. She pressed her lips slightly, and when her sons gaze met with hers, she said sternly, "And you, Gavi! You are not excusef from anything! You will get your lesson later. What you have done is very wrong! Do you understand?!"

Gavi’s eyes turned teary on hearing his momma scold him, and he meekly nodded his head, and then casted his head downwards.

Dove stared at her son for a while more, before she turned towards Butler Joe and spoke, "Uncle Joe, please take Gavi to his room. And please take his breakfast there. I will talk to him later."

Butler Joe nodded his head, and then instructed a maid to bring his breakfast to his room.

Meanwhile, Dante eyes followed Gavi who was taken to his room. He did not move his eyes from him, and then he noticed something.

As Gavi was alighting the stairs, and when almost everyone had their gaze averted gt him, his little lips turned up into a small smirk, and that childly fear and innocence was gone.

He looked like a small little sly fox! Dante then turned his head towards Dove to find her glancing at Gavi, before he saw her subtly smirking too.

Dante then blinked his eyes twice, a chuckle escaped his mouth, with his concealed with a cough.

His woman and his son! They are surely something!
