For Cathy, it was the best ice-cream she had ever tasted in her life.
Allen fed everyone present the ice-cream. After that, he began to enjoy it. He looked happy and delighted. It seemed that the shadow of being scared had all gone.
"Grandma, did you make the ice-cream yourself?" while eating, Allen asked.
As the ice-cream was only of small size, there was only a little left after he shared with everyone present.
"Of course. Allen, if you like it, I can make more for you next time." Cathy hugged him tight and felt his soft and sweet body.
Cathy could tell how tough Amy was as she juggled her job and Allen at the same time.
"Okay, but I need to tell mom first!" Allen pointed at Amy, who was the only one in charge at home.
"Okay, I will tell your mom then." Cathy kissed on his little cheek. Though he was her grandson, she couldn't announce yet and still needed to wait till the time came.
Amy was about to ask if the trouble just now was settled. But she suddenly realized that it had nothing to do with her. Though it was Allen who got the report, the truth would still be exposed sooner or later as almost everyone in the Carter's family knew about it. So the report was nothing but a blasting fuse only.
"Okay, it's time for us to go home. Sorry to bother you for a day long and we even got you a big trouble. I feel so sorry." Since they had been here for a whole day, Amy deemed that it was time for them to go home.
"Oh, you can leave after dinner." Richard still wanted them to stay for a little longer and so did Cathy, "Yeah, we almost get ready for dinner. Just leave after dinner, okay?"
"Yeah, it's just a dinner. It makes no difference wherever you have dinner. Just stay for a little longer." Halbert was also loath to part with Allen so soon.
Richard was a bit confused as his parents really treated Allen as their own grandson.
"Alright, thanks for your dinner." Amy looked at the watch and noticed that it was almost time for dinner. So it would be a bit awkward to leave now.
Hearing that, Allen actually appeared to be the happiest one. He jumped up and down and kept jubilating. He loved to feel like part of the family here.
After dinner, Cathy gave Amy a big package of scented tea, which she loved most.
And Cathy also filled an ice jar with a lot of ice cream. It should be enough for Allen to enjoy for quite a few days as he was just a kid.
Allen had been fiddling with the ice jar on their way home. He fancied more ice cream still. But he didn't dare to tell Amy about it. So he just played with the jar.
"Do you still want more ice cream?" Amy noticed what he wanted.
"Yeah, mom, you are so clever!" Allen smiled at her in a sweet voice.
Amy also smiled and then she pulled over the car. She was about to get some ice cream for him.
But she didn't notice that there had been a car tailing her from behind. When she just pulled over to get Allen some ice cream, someone knocked on the window.
