“Don’t pretend to be humble.” Peggy Lewis said with a smile, “The judges were eager to eat a second one, that’s a big recognition for you. After all, they have to judge several rounds of the competition in one day, even if they just eat a little bit in each round, they’d be quite full by the end of the day.”

His fingertips gently hooked her soft and delicate palm.
Cindy was startled.
