Chapter 701: 701: What's wrong with this man today?
Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!
âYeah, that Old Fox, Richard Lopez, didnât get much advantage against our CEOâs Wife.â
âOriginally, we were worried that the CEOâs Wife would suffer a loss, so we were waiting around just in case something went wrong. We would immediately appear to protect her. But unexpectedly, the CEOâs Wife just opened her mouth and made Richard Lopez speechless in a few words.â
Everyone in the office was extremely impressed.
Someone whispered, âI used to think that with our CEOâs temper, it was already a blessing for him to find a wife. Only our CEOâs Wife can put up with him. Now, I think they are really a perfect match.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThatâs right! This isnât the CEOâs Wife putting up with the CEO; this is a perfect match!â
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone agreed.
Together, they had such a strong impact.
Adrian Zhekova was strong, decisive, and precise in his attacks.
Cindy Clarke could completely shut people up with just a few words.
Together, they were a perfect pair!
Now that they saw it, everyone thought Cindy Clarke was perfect for Adrian Zhekova!
From now on, they didnât feel sorry for Cindy at all.
She and Adrian Zhekova were truly a great match!
âKeep your voices down, donât let the CEO know,â someone reminded them.
For a while, the workers at Pingla stopped discussing and moved on to talk about other things.
âWhat do we eat for lunch?â
âWhere should we go for lunch?â
They absolutely did not discuss anything about the CEO and the CEOâs Wife anymore.
Of course, from now on, no one felt sorry for the CEOâs Wife.
When Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke were together, it was difficult for others, not for them.
***
Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke were in the elevator.
This time, the two of them were in Adrian Zhekovaâs private elevator, and no one disturbed them.
Adrian Zhekova held the lunch box in one hand and held Cindy Clarkeâs hand in the other.
He kept looking down at her.
Cindy felt a little uneasy and touched her face: âWhy do you keep staring at me? What are you staring at?â
âIâm looking at how youâre so smart and quick-witted. Just look at how you shut Richard Lopez up,â Adrian Zhekova whispered.
He still found Richard Lopezâs reaction hilarious.
Cindy touched herself again: âCan you see that just by looking?â
Adrian Zhekova seriously thought for a moment, but his eyes still did not move away from Cindyâs face.
âI canât see how your brain works so well and how smart you are,â Adrian Zhekova laughed softly, âbut I can see that our little Cindy is very pretty.â
Cindyâs face immediately turned red.
Although this man had said quite a few cheesy lines to her before, this was the first time he had complimented her looks.
Feeling her cheeks burning, Cindy heard Adrian Zhekova say, âI can also see that this little mouth of yours, the one that can infuriate people, is also very delicious.â
Cindy: â!!!â
What kind of lewd words were these?!
This was still in the elevator; even if there werenât any people around, there were still cameras in it.
His eyes were burning as he looked at her, making her feel a little overwhelmed, and her legs turned weak.
It wasnât that Cindy didnât trust Adrian Zhekova; she didnât trust herself now.
She was afraid that she would lose control of herself and throw herself at Adrian Zhekova right here in the elevator.
But Adrian Zhekova seemed to have no idea about Cindyâs inner struggle and efforts. Instead, he turned to face her.
He was extremely close to her, his toes almost touching hers.
But seemingly still not satisfied, he moved forward a little more.
Now their feet were on the outside of Cindyâs feet.
It was as if he had embedded her within his embrace.
The hand holding Cindyâs hand changed position slightly, his long fingers threading through her fingertips one by one until their hands were clasped together, firmly intertwined.
Their hands were locked together like a lock, leaving Cindy unable to pull her hand back.
âIf the three people from the Lopez Family hear what you said, theyâll probably be furious,â Adrian Zhekovaâs words made Cindy a little less tense.
She couldnât help but show a bit of schadenfreude. After all, the angry ones were the Lopez Family, not them. Cindy didnât feel any pressure or guilt.
âBut only I can eat this little mouth that can infuriate people with its words,â Adrian Zhekova suddenly said.
Cindy: â!!!â
What was wrong with this man today?
Listen to him talk like this, itâs simply hard to stand it!
Adrian Zhekova himself couldnât quite say what was going on with him.
When he heard that the Lopez Family was coming to Pingla, he had been prepared for a confrontation. He knew that the three people from the Lopez Family had come for a specific reason, so he had deliberately ignored them.
After giving them the cold shoulder for a while, he would explain the situation to them and let them know why he was targeting them.
However, even if he explained, he never thought about letting them off the hook easily.
If everyone who provoked the Zhekova Family could get off so easily, wouldnât everyone dare to touch the Zhekova Familyâs tiger whiskers from now on?
Wouldnât everyone dare to bully Cindy?
So no matter what Adrian Zhekova said, he would not let the Lopez Family off easily.
He had no intention of bankrupting the Lopez Family. After all, if everyone who provoked the Zhekova Family were bankrupted, there would probably be only a few families left outside of the Big Eight families in Belfard.
If someone provoked him, it would depend on the extent of their offense.
For a situation like Edward Lopezâs shortsighted actions, he would only let the Lopez Family suffer some losses.
He wouldnât really bankrupt the Lopez Family.
After all, the Lopez Family had a certain strength in Belfard. If they wanted to bankrupt the Lopez Family, it would take a lot of effort.
Moreover, even if the Lopez Family were bankrupted, there would be no benefit to the Zhekova Family.
,p>It would probably be on the level of harming the enemy a thousand and harming oneself a hundred.
However, even if he didnât really bankrupt the Lopez Family, he wanted to hurt them enough to leave them crippled.
He wanted the Lopez Family to feel the pain and never dare to provoke Cindy again.
Even so, the Lopez Family would probably be heartbroken.
Thatâs why they came to look for Adrian Zhekova right away.
Adrian Zhekova had already prepared to be harrassed by the Lopez Family for a while.
Even if he ignored them, he couldnât stop them from coming to Pinglaâs gate every day to make trouble.
If they didnât see Adrian Zhekova, they would wait at the gate of Pingla. Even if Adrian Zhekova didnât see them, he couldnât stop them from coming.
However, he didnât expect that they would meet Cindy, and that she would drive them away with just a few words.
Adrian Zhekova couldnât help but laugh. How could this girl be so capable? She was too amazing!
Richard Lopez probably hated her even more now.
She, who always provoked othersâ hatred, was as obedient as a rabbit in front of him.
