Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Adrian Zhekova raised his eyebrows, curious about what question Cindy could ask that would anger him.
âYou ask.â Adrian Zhekova laughed.
Cindy nervously took a breath before asking, âDo you like me partly because of
Morgan?â
Cindy didnât dare to look at Adrian anymore, lowering her head and fiddling with the hem of her clothes, âI know that one day Morgan will recognize you and will return to the Zhekova Family. Maybe you think itâs not appropriate for Morgan and me to be apart, especially for Morgan. So, why not just get along with me and give Morgan a complete home?â
Having said that, Cindy cautiously looked at Adrian.
This was her worry, but she was also afraid that her guess would disappoint Adrianâs intentions and hurt him.
But if she didnât ask, this matter would always be on Cindyâs mind, like a knot.
Unexpectedly, Adrian didnât seem angry.
Adrian smiled tenderly, holding Cindy even closer, admitting, âItâs impossible to say that it has nothing to do with Morgan.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Cindyâs heart sank a little.
Adrian saw her reaction and continued with a smile, âIf it werenât for Morgan, do you think we would have had the chance to meet? Perhaps you would still participate in the Cooking Competition. But the major competition is just one of the many brands under the Flag of Pingla. Itâs impossible for me to pay close attention to every competition. At most, I would just listen to the general progress and hear about the work from my subordinates. Then, I would pay attention during the final.â
âBut even if I met you, you would be just one of the contestants for me,â Adrian said.
Cindyâs originally tied ponytail had long been messed up by Adrian.
Moreover, just now, leaning against Adrian, her hair inevitably brushed against him, making it even more disordered.
As he spoke, he reached out and simply took off her hair tie, letting her long hair spread out entirely.
Cindyâs hair was exceptionally smooth, indeed suitable for a shampoo commercial.
Only a few strands od hair were slightly messy.
Adrianâs long fingers were intertwined with her hair, helping her comb her locks as he spoke, âThere may be other chances to meet, but they are all just possibilities. â
âThe reality is, we met and got to know each other because of Morgan,â Adrian said slowly, âItâs because of Morgan that we had the opportunity to interact many times. And itâs because Morgan looks so much like me that I began to wonder if that woman back then was you, and with the clue that you also come from Nork City, I began to investigate and test the parent-child relationship between Morgan and me.â
âAdmittedly, our acquaintance began with Morgan, but I would not force myself to be with someone I didnât like just because of Morgan. I got to know you because of Morgan, but it was through each interaction with you that I grew fonder of you.â
âIt just so happened that you are also Morganâs mother,â Adrian patiently explained to Cindy, âIf there were no Morgan and we could still meet, I would still like you.â
Adrian gathered her hair around her ear, âOur acquaintance has to do with
Morgan. But my feelings for you have nothing to do with Morgan.â
As soon as Adrian finished speaking, Cindy suddenly turned around kneeling, one hand supporting his leg for leverage. She propped herself up and quickly pecked his lips.
Then hurriedly sat back down.
Her movements were so fast that Adrian could hardly react, so he couldnât stop her in time, and she sat back down..
