Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Close enough to feel his breath, and the minty scent when he breathes.
In the midst of panic and nervousness, she is already being carried by him.
By the time she regains her senses, she is sitting in the passenger seat.
She only hears the car door slam shut, and Adrian Zhekova is already in the car.
But after waiting for a while, Adrian Zhekova doesnât start the car.
Cindy Clarke looks at him suspiciously, only to find that he is also looking at her.
Her face clearly says: What are you looking at me for?
Adrian Zhekova just laughs: âFasten your seatbelt.â
Cindyâs face turns red instantly, feeling like her head is about to explode.
Just now, she was boldly staring at him!
In the end, sheâs the one embarrassed!
Cindy bows her head and quietly fastens her seatbelt.
She doesnât know why the usually talkative Morgan Clarke is so quiet right now.
Looking in the rearview mirror, it turns out that the little one is asleep in the back.
Her small legs are spread in a big âVâ, with only her feet dangling at the edge of the seat.
Her head leaning back on the seat, mouth open, drool coming from the side of her mouth.
Asleep in a very carefree manner.
The atmosphere is too awkward, and Cindy is too embarrassed to stay silent.
She fumbles for a topic: âEarlier in the nursery, you said that if they expelled Morgan, youâd make sure the Woods Family couldnât provide any more sponsorships.â
Adrian Zhekova taps the steering wheel: âOf course I scared them. I canât possibly destroy a whole company just for someone I just met today.â
Whether or not he really thinks that way is unknown.
But upon hearing his words, Cindy breathes a sigh of relief.
She relaxes and starts laughing: âThatâs true. I thought so too. Otherwise, youâd be too busy helping strangers.â
Originally, Cindy was under a lot of pressure.
Although she knew he was just bluffing the headmaster and wouldnât really take action against the Woods Family for their sakes, she still felt uneasy about the whole thing.
Even if Adrian Zhekova was just frightening the headmaster, it still required him to speak for it to have an effect.
No one else could scare the headmaster like that.
Even so, Adrian Zhekova personally resolved the issue for Morgan Clarke.
Cindy still felt a lot of pressure.
Just as Adrian Zhekova said, they had just met for the first time today. They werenât related, yet Adrian Zhekova still stepped in to help them. Even if itâs just a matter of raising a hand, he still must be willing to do so.
Fortunately, they meet a red light.
The car comes to a stop.
Adrian Zhekova turns to Cindy: âEven if we werenât strangers, I wouldnât help just anyone.â
âIs it because Iâm cute?â Morgan Clarke suddenly wakes up and sticks her head forward.
Adrian Zhekova just chuckles coldly, letting her figure it out on her own.
What a thick-skinned girl!
âSit back properly.â Cindy reminds Morgan, âWeâre driving right now.â Cindy dares not continue talking with Adrian Zhekova.
His words always leave people with misunderstandings, making her unsure what to say.
Who wouldâve thought that when she stops talking, Adrian Zhekova keeps glancing at her.
After a while, he looks at her again. Cindyâs face is burning, she whispers: âJust drive properly.â Whatâs he looking at her for?
âYou havenât told me your address.â Adrian Zhekova says.
Cindy: â
Getting the wrong idea again, how embarrassing!
Cindy quickly recites her address and keeps silent after that.
Adrian Zhekova parks the car downstairs of Cindyâs homen/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
