“Yes.” Cindy Clarke thought about the phone call she had earlier. Adrian Zhekova was there at that time, so he should be aware of the situation.

So she did not hide the truth any more: “A boy at the nursery said some inappropriate things, and Morgan ended up fighting with him. The boy’s parents want to have a chat with us.”

Adrian Zhekova nodded: “It’s on my way. I’ll give you guys a lift.”

Cindy blinked in surprise, hesitated for a moment, then asked: “Do you know where Morgan goes to nursery?”

He didn’t even know which nursery, so how could it be on his way at all?

Adrian Zhekova:

But, Adrian’s response was rapid: “Isn’t it near the ravioli stand we visited last time?”

He later heard from Sheldon Rowland that Morgan ran out of the nursery by himself.

Considering his little short legs, he definitely couldn’t have run far.

Cindy paused and realized, it made sense.

But why would Adrian Zhekova, without any reason, be so kind?

The grandson of the Zhekova Family, he wasn’t someone to mess around with.

The Zhekovas, one of The Big Eight families.

The Big Eight families are the top eight families in this country, West, Smith, Carden, York, Hamilton, Zhekova, Wells, Callaghan.

Adrian was a character at the top of the pyramid, the next Family Head of the Zhekova family.

The Big Eight are not like those ultra-rich or richest families.

The heritage of The Big Eight, that’s the real nobility.

They have power, depth, and wealth.

Now, such a person is offering them a ride?

Was he being friendly?

“This is too much trouble.” Cindy politely declined, actually, she did not want to have any relationship with Adrian Zhekova.

They are not from the same world, so there was no need to have a relationship.

“It’s no trouble.” Adrian Zhekova lifted his hand to show a box of beef strips in his hand, “Consider it a thank you.”

“…” Cindy opened her mouth, but she couldn’t say that she had prepared the box of beef strips for Sheldon Rowland.

It wasn’t that she wasn’t grateful to Adrian Zhekova, but she felt Adrian wouldn’t care for such a trivial gift.

Who knew that he would accept the whole box?

In the end, Adrian didn’t give Cindy a chance to refuse, and led them to his car. Little did they know, Sheldon Rowland had been secretly following behind them the entire time.

Seeing Adrian take away the beef strips but not return to his office, Sheldon’s eyes widened, sensing that something was amiss, and he followed secretly.

To his surprise, Adrian went to find Cindy.

Following behind, Sheldon secretly thought that Adrian was really cunning.

Adrian usually drives a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, an SUV which is not too difficult to get into.

But this time, Adrian is taking Cindy in a G. Patton GX!

What kind of car is the G. Patton GX?

It’s a massive off-roader!

Who drives that in the city?

When did Adrian, this tough guy, start trying to impress little girls?

The step to get into the car was even higher than Morgan.

Morgan was now struggling with the high step.

Unable to cope, she finally said to Adrian: “Uncle, lift me up!”

Without any hesitation, Adrian Zhekova picked up Morgan and placed her in the back seat.

With Morgan in the back seat, Cindy was slightly uncomfortable.

She wanted to sit in the back with Morgan.

But then, wouldn’t Adrian be the driver?

That wouldn’t be right.

But if she sat in the front…

She really felt awkward about sitting there.

Adrian Zhekova glared at her coolly, and Cindy understood.

The look in Adrian Zhekova’s eyes was saying — dare to try sitting in the back!

So, Cindy silently climbed into the front passenger seat..
