NOVPUBChapter 1096: Chapter 1096: Assisting Attack_1 Chapter 1096 -1096: Assisting Attack_1 “Even if you find someone from an equal family background, or even less financial status than ours, does it truly ensure compatibility?
Being suitable isn’t about financial compatibility, but about how the family treats one another.”
“I can guarantee this, you won’t find elders as good as those in the Zhekova family.”
Of course, elders in other families are also good.
But they are not for you to pick and choose from the Big Eight families, are they?
Therefore, Cindy’s words in effect excluded all other families.
She only compared the Zhekova family with ordinary families.
Mrs.
Lewis was convinced by Cindy’s argument.
...
Cindy did indeed make sense.
What Cindy said was actually simple.
Just like people say, you marry an ugly man because you think handsome ones might be unfaithful.
Does that mean the ugly ones will never cheat or have affairs?
In essence, it’s the same logic.
“Godmother, look at me.
After marriage, isn’t it the same as any ordinary girl?
There’s no difference.
I’m still doing what I love, and occasionally visit the Zhekova family.” Cindy said with a smile.
“Perhaps the advantage is, I can focus fully on my career, without worrying about what will happen if I fail.
I don’t have to worry about neglecting my family due to my career.
Because Adrian is my backup, he doesn’t need me to worry about these issues.
If my career ever hit a roadblock, takes a downturn, he’s there backing me up.”
“When I neglect the family due to work, he can manage.
Fourth Uncle would be the same.
He doesn’t look like those career-obsessed men who think it’s my responsibility to take care of both the career and family.
Who isn’t busy?
Who doesn’t have a job?” Cindy laughed, “But Adrian and Fourth Uncle wouldn’t do that.”
“They believe that we are all equal, and they would even willingly sacrifice their own interests for their wives.
Can you believe that?
There are still such good men nowadays?”
Mrs.
Lewis nodded.
She did believe the earlier parts of what Cindy had said.
But the last part, Mrs.
Lewis found it incredible.
“They…
can they really do that?” Mrs.
Lewis asked in surprise.
“I understand Adrian very well, he can indeed do that, and he wouldn’t even overthink it.” Of course, if it were Cindy, she could too.
She now had an air of confidence.
For Adrian, she could give up her life.
As for Morgan, she believed that with Adrian around, Adrian would definitely take good care of Morgan.
When she made her sacrifice, she could do so without any worries.
Moreover, she believed that Adrian would not remarry.
He would rather take care of Morgan all by himself, and never consider one else.
For some reason, Cindy just felt that way.
The man had a kind of unusual stubbornness in him.
“And I believe that Fourth Uncle will be the same.
Because he has a good relationship with Adrian.
I trust him because I trust Adrian.” Cindy said.
“Of course, these are just my thoughts.
The reality will only be clear when something happens.
Preferably, we’ll never have to face bad things.” Cindy said with a laugh.
“There’s one point about Fourth Uncle that is quite rare.” Cindy said again.
“What’s that?” Mrs.
Lewis asked anxiously.
“Fourth Uncle, like Peggy, is still single and has never been in a relationship.” Cindy said.
Mrs.
Lewis was dumbfounded and felt as if her world was shattered, “He’s 37 years old, and he’s never been in a relationship?”
“I didn’t ask for details.
One thing is certain that Fourth Uncle is a man who has high standards and wouldn’t settle just for the sake of getting married.
Adrian told me that Fourth Uncle never had a relationship.”
“Yo, can these two inexperienced people be together?” Mrs.
Lewis began to ponder.
Cindy smirked: “Are you agreeing to their relationship?”
“…” Mrs.
Lewis replied, “I didn’t say that.”
“You are already worried about their interaction, how could you say you’re not agreeing?” Cindy chuckled.
“Oh, you!” Mrs.
Lewis laughed helplessly, “You are getting trickier.”
Cindy laughed, “Anyways, whatever we conclude here is irrelevant, the key is what the people involved think.”
“True.” Mrs.
Lewis also realized that.
Peggy is innocently thinking she is just friends with Lyke Zhekova.
Seems like Lyke Zhekova still has a long way to go.
It’s too soon for her to worry about all this.
“Godmother, if there’s anything else you want to know, just ask me on Whatsapp.
If you want to know more about Fourth Uncle, don’t hesitate.
Ask me, and if I don’t know, I’ll ask Adrian.
It’s all normal.” Cindy said.
“Okay.” Mrs.
Lewis felt that was a plus point for Lyke Zhekova.
Peggy falls in love freely, and it takes time to learn about her partner’s background.
They would not know if there’s anything untoward if the other party intentionally conceals it.
Matchmaking is not reliable either.
The matchmaker wouldn’t know everything.
Cindy, on the other hand, was very forthcoming and nothing was off limits.
She said many things to reassure Mr.
and Mrs.
Lewis.
More importantly, Cindy had first-hand knowledge, certainly more reliable than the matchmakers who only knew half the story.
“Let’s get out of here.” Cindy reminded, “Otherwise, if we keep whispering here for too long, it might seem strange to them.”
“Okay.” Mrs.
Lewis left with Cindy.
Cindy returned to the kitchen to wash the dishes with Peggy.
Peggy was still unaware of the conversation between Mrs.
Lewis and Cindy.
Cindy and Mrs.
Lewis made a pact not to tell Peggy.
When everyone was about to leave in the evening, Mr.
Lewis asked, “Peggy, are you leaving too?”
Peggy was surprised for a moment, then she remembered that she could stay at her parent’s home.
Usually, when she came home on weekends, she would stay for a while.
She was used to living at Lyke’s house, and she even felt a sense of belonging there.
She naturally wanted to leave with Lyke, forgetting that she was at her own house now.
Peggy can’t let her parents know she’s living with Lyke.
She said, “I’ll walk them out, I’ll be back soon.”
Mr.
Lewis was quite satisfied with that.
Mrs.
Lewis said, “I’ll go with you.”
“No need.” Cindy quickly replied, “You stay with my godfather here, we’re not strangers, there’s no need to send us off.”
“Yes, I can represent both of us.” Peggy added.
So, Mr.
Lewis and Mrs.
Lewis were persuaded to stay at home.
Peggy walked them to the elevator.
Cindy thought it was quite normal for Peggy to stay at her parent’s house.
She seldom stays at home during weekdays, so it’s quite natural to spend time with her parents when she comes back on the weekends.
