Chapter 21 - THE CAKE !!!

Mrs Melani looked at the masked face of the girl in front of her, she had a dissatisfied expression on her face.

This girl being freed from slave status made him restless. Zoya's rude attitude towards this girl will affect her.

Zoya is not punished, but Mrs. Melani will be reprimanded by Mr. Gilbert. She failed to train this servant. Mrs. Melanie is worried. There will always be other women ready to replace you at Master Gilbert's side, this former slave is one of them.

Even though the girl is young, this is not an obstacle. The young will replace the old. Mrs. Melani suddenly felt an age crisis.

"Who is this girl?" Why do I feel like Mr. Gilbert is hiding something? Why is Mr. Gilbert determined to protect her? "_

Mrs. Melani exhaled hot breath on her chest gently. She managed to overcome her emotions. She returned to being a beautiful and graceful woman.

Mrs. Melani gracefully said to Clara Diana, "Open! Are you okay!"

"Mrs...!" Zoya is shocked and her eyes get hot as she holds back her tears. Will Mistress Melani scold him and defend her former slave? Even though she defended her employer.

"No, ma'am, I'm watching!" answered Clara Diana innocently and shyly.

Mrs. Melani's throat tightened. Did she know that this girl's attitude was seductive that it could even make good men greedy? Mrs. Melani was again worried that her achievements as a respected palace cook in Constantine's kingdom would suddenly be destroyed because of the former slave's innocence.

Clay stood there without expression. Although he appears to be a quiet man, he is Mr. Gilbert's spy, and the incident was recorded by the man, who then reported it to Mr. Gilbert.

Mrs. Melani has received special attention from Gilbert, but Mrs. Melani feels neglected by Mr. Gilbert's choice of this girl.

"NO!"_ Mrs. Melani was reluctant to believe it.

Mrs. Melani has calmed down again, she is an experienced woman, she will not give up on this stupid girl.

***"""***

Mrs. Melanie has regained her composure. She is an experienced woman. She would not be defeated by this flat chested girl.

Mrs. Melani withdrew her trust again. During this time, Master Gilbert put him in charge of the women in the dungeon. Mrs Melani takes care of all women's needs starting from food and drink, clothing, personal needs, toiletries and beauty care. In other words, all women's needs were taken over by Mrs. Melani. The women in the dungeon are provided with special services, they are not prisoners. The dungeon is a quarantine room before being transferred to the dormitory, a place of education for women with character and class.

It would be a mistake to think of the dungeon as Mr. Gilbert's harem.

"Did Mr. Gilbert withdraw his trust in me? Oh my God! A few days here, that slave is causing a lot of trouble!"_

From the prison guard, Mrs. Melani heard that the kitchen slave was making a fuss with the women in the basement.

"That kitchen slave made us fight! She created division and power, she created tension and hostility between us, she divided our friendship!"

Maria reported to the prison warden.

"Now the former kitchen slave has ruined my relationship with Mr. Gilbert!"_ Mrs. Melani swallowed her anger.

****

Mr. Gilbert's instructions, Clay was not to return until he saw Clara Diana wearing the clothes he brought.

Clara Diana went to the kitchen, changed clothes there. She no longer uses Mrs. Melani's private room, Zoya has locked it.

Zoya's eyes couldn't leave Clara Diana, she followed Clara Diana into the kitchen.

Clara Diana stopped and looked at a large table filled with various types of pastries.

The aroma of fragrant cakes will whet your appetite.This cake, which has an attractive and fun shape, is the work of a new chef who is currently training.

Clara Diana's eyes sparkled beautifully when she saw the sweet cake on the table.

The face brought out the childish nature in her, shining like the morning sun. However, Clara Diana is a child trapped in an adult's body.

She's a little girl who loves cutely shaped cakes. Clara Diana quickly wiped away the saliva that was about to drip.

"Ahh!"_ Diana missed her grandmother. Her grandmother made dry cakes for her to prepare for his travels. Her grandmother knew that Clara Diana was lazy about eating. Clara Diana can eat these cakes when she is hungry.

Zoya watches the incident cynically.

"Don't touch the cake!" he is screaming.

Clara Diana pouted, Zoya's scream erased the girl's childish face. However, Clara Diana remained standing near the table with her hands behind her back.

"What are you waiting for? Get out of that place quickly!" Zoya flies Clara Diana like a cat.

Clara Diana sneered,

"Hah! The cakes my grandmother makes are much tastier than these cakes!"_ she muttered irritably.

But suddenly Clara Diana's face brightened,

"Wait! How could I forget? Don't I have cake? Oh hahaha!" Clara laughed. She forgot to keep a lot of cookies in his magic belt.

"I'll eat the cake later"_ Clara Diana laughed as she went to the bathroom.

***

Zoya is shocked seeing her. "She's obsessed with this cake! Poor slave," Zoya sneered.

No slave has ever tasted a delicious cake, let alone a god-level cake with unmatched taste and quality. Crafted for royalty using the highest quality materials. Those who work in Mrs Melani's workshop, including Zoya and employees Mr Gilbert, Mr Clay, Mr Darwin and Mr Leon, have the opportunity to taste this premium cake.

**"**

A few moments later, Clara Diana came out of the bathroom wearing a maid's uniform

Zoya's eyes widened when she saw Clara Diana and she laughed out loud.

"Hahaha! I thought you got beautiful clothes... hahahaha... it turned out to be just a maid outfit... hahahaha... but why are you wearing it... hahahaha... I know... I know... no there are women's uniforms available there (Mr. Gilbert's office)..." Zoya's laughter was tinged with disdain. "Hahaha how ridiculous!"

Clara Diana responded to Zoya's teasing with a sarcastic smile.

"Why? Is there something strange? Our status is now the same; we are both servants. Unfortunately, we are not serving in the same place!" Clara Diana's words sounded in Zoya's ears like a bomb.

Zoya's laughter stopped, and her face turned pale. She suddenly realized something was wrong!

The maid uniform worn by Clara Diana is a male servant's outfit, identical to Clay's outfit.

This means that Clara Diana has a higher status than Zoya. Zoya served as the servant of the head chef of the palace, Mrs. Melani, while Clara Diana served as the personal servant of the head of the royal palace household, Mr. Gilbert.

How lucky this former kitchen slave is? Zoya's face turned from red to black, as if she had received a stinging blow, filled with shame, pain and envy.

**"**

Clay has finished carrying out Mr Gilbert's duties. The young man said goodbye. Only after Clay left, Mrs Melani felt relieved.

The arrival of Mr. Leon and Clay made Mr. Melani nervous.
