Chapter 832: Disdain_1

Having seen the ways of the world, how could he be fooled by Ethan Zhekova’s words?

Mila Harrison, on the other hand, is immediately flustered by his words.

What does Ethan Zhekova mean by saying this?

If he truly brings home an ordinary woman, what benefit would it bring him?

Though Cindy Clarke comes from humble beginnings, she has unique skills!

Her culinary prowess is unrivaled and has gained her widespread recognition.

Strictly speaking, Cindy Clarke can no longer be considered an ordinary person.

If Ethan Zhekova chooses to marry another ordinary girl now, when he is already so far behind Adrian Zhekova, he will not come close to matching up to Cindy Clarke.

Doesn’t that mean he is setting himself up for a loss?

Ethan Zhekova’s words made Cindy Clarke turn to glance at him.

No matter whether Ethan Zhekova was sincere, he came off as completely genuine.

He seemingly wanted to leave a good impression on the elders.

Whether the Old Madam believed him or not, she appeared to be delighted, nodding and saying, “Yes, yes, yes.”

“Of course, marriage is for a lifetime. Your wife is the person you will spend the rest of your life with, several decades of living together,” the Old Madam said.

“If you marry out of convenience rather than love, the rest of your life would be miserable.”

“Marry someone you genuinely love, and life will be sweet!”

Mila Harrison frowned and shook her head in disagreement with the Old Madam’s words.

Maverick Zhekova and Victoria Wheeler were also introduced to each other by others, and Victoria too comes from a prominent family.

Yet they seem to be living a decent life.

She and Edward Dewer met through an arranged introduction too – they have been a married couple for decades, so why not this?

How are they not living a happy life?

The Old Madam clearly doesn’t want Ethan Zhekova to surpass Adrian Zhekova in terms of marriage.

If this is something to worry about, why did she agree to Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke being together in the first place?

Finding a match of equal social standing for Adrian Zhekova would suffice.

“Yes,” Ethan Zhekova said, displaying a look of innocence, “that’s what I think too.”

“Anyway, looking at my older brother’s family, I am really envious,” Ethan Zhekova said with a face full of admiration.

Cindy Clarke lowered her eyes.

It’s not clear whether Ethan Zhekova is sincere at the moment.

But Cindy Clarke doesn’t quite trust him.

Although she doesn’t know much about Ethan Zhekova, Cindy Clarke inherently distrusts him.

She doesn’t like this man.

It’s perhaps Cindy Clarke’s intuition.

The first time she saw Ethan Zhekova, she took a dislike to him and didn’t trust him.

She believes that Ethan Zhekova’s gaze is not sincere.

She noticed that Ethan Zhekova would occasionally avert his gaze when others spoke, concealing his own.

This made Cindy Clarke find him very deceitful.

Averting his eyes and concealing his gaze, not wanting others to see his eyes.

It inevitably implies that he fears exposing himself.

Thinking unspeakable thoughts that people can’t see, brings this kind of worry.

Unlike Adrian Zhekova and Samson Zhekova.

They are open-hearted and never show such deceitfulness.

Looking at Ethan Zhekova’s self-righteous expression, Cindy Clarke felt he was extremely hypocritical.

In this moment, Cindy Clarke’s judgement of others aligns with that of her child.

At this moment, Samson Zhekova grinned and said, “In that case, why not have Sister-in-law introduce some of her friends to you?”

“Anyone who is friends with Sister-in-law must be extraordinary,” Samson Zhekova declared.

Ethan Zhekova was saying he doesn’t care about family background, right?

As long as the person is good, that’s enough.

Cindy Clarke is a good person, so the friends she knows must also be good.

Could Ethan Zhekova complain about that?

In contrast to Cindy Clarke meeting Ethan Zhekova for the first time, Samson Zhekova knows Ethan Zhekova very well.

He is far too aware that Ethan Zhekova is not the kind of person to disregard social status.

Instead, just like Edward Dewer, Ethan Zhekova gives great importance to this issue.

He is incredibly snobbish and looks down on people.

Even when out and about, he carries himself with high and mighty airs.

Isn’t it all just because he is a member of the Zhekova Family?

The words he just said were merely to sound nice.

If he were to actually be made to act on his words, he would immediately put on a sullen face.

Samson Zhekova knows this all too well.

That’s why he purposely spoke in this manner.

The way he involved Cindy Clarke was somewhat disrespectful.

Just as he said, Cindy Clarke is a good person, and her friends are certainly good as well.

Now, by using her friends to deflect the situation, it seems a little disrespectful.

Therefore, after saying this, Samson Zhekova gave Cindy Clarke, who was sitting diagonally across from him, a silent and apologetic smile.

He was seated on the same side as Edward Dewer’s family.

So when he made this face, Edward Dewer’s family couldn’t see it.

Seeing Samson Zhekova behaving so informally, exchanging glances with her, Cindy Clarke curled her lips slightly, afraid of being noticed by Edward Dewer’s family.

Therefore, she refrained from returning Samson Zhekova’s glances.

But, Edward Dewer’s family weren’t focused on Cindy Clarke’s response anymore.

They had been infuriated by Samson Zhekova’s words all along.

Mila Harrison had finally realized what Ethan Zhekova’s words meant.

They were just nice-sounding words for the two elders.

But what does Samson Zhekova mean?

Could Cindy Clarke really introduce her friends to Ethan Zhekova?

Even if it was Cindy Clarke, they felt she wasn’t a good enough match for Ethan Zhekova.

Even more so her friends!@@novelbin@@

How could Cindy Clarke’s friends be better than Cindy Clarke?

They are merely ordinary people.

They could not possibly be a match for Ethan Zhekova!

“Hehe, forced affection won’t bear sweet fruit,” Mila Harrison gave a dry laugh. “Introductions are fine, but I’m afraid it could make Cindy Clarke uncomfortable if they don’t hit it off.”

“I wouldn’t feel awkward about it. After all, knowing each other and being friends,” said Cindy Clarke.

“Even in matchmaking, you don’t always hit it off with the first person.”

Mila Harrison felt her heart in her throat.

She almost blurted out a curse.

Why was Cindy Clarke so clueless?

Her friends, how could they be good enough for Ethan Zhekova!

She dared to speak so brazenly!

However, right after, Cindy Clarke said, “But I don’t have many friends, only a few I’m close to.”

“I’m not one to make a wide circle of friends. I believe that when making friends, sincerity is key. It’s better to have a few friends you can share your hearts openly with than having a lot of superficial friendships.”

“So I only have a few close friends. And, they are all in a relationship.”

Peggy Lewis is indeed single.

But she wouldn’t betray Peggy Lewis, would she?

In Cindy Clarke’s view, it’s Ethan Zhekova who’s not good enough for Peggy Lewis.

She wouldn’t introduce Peggy Lewis to someone like Ethan Zhekova.

Mila Harrison heaves a sigh of relief, but still doesn’t feel at ease.

She can now rest assured that Cindy Clarke will not introduce a girlfriend to Ethan Zhekova.

But on the other hand, she thinks that Cindy Clarke made up these excuses.

Who knows whether her friends are single or not.

Mila Harrison always feels that Cindy Clarke is looking down on Ethan Zhekova, hence she made up these excuses.

Cindy Clarke and her friends, looking down on Ethan Zhekova?

Mila Harrison is so angry that she can’t eat anymore.

She picks up her glass of red wine and takes a sip.

Ethan Zhekova just quietly smiles, not saying a word, once again hiding his gaze.
