NOVPUBChapter 1121: Chapter 1121: Are You Afraid?_1 Chapter 1121 -1121: Are You Afraid?_1 “I know you love him, do you think Grandmother and I don’t love Morgan?
But it’s not about spoiling him, a boy, especially, cannot be pampered from a young age,” the Old Master said.
“Now he may appear like a small child at 5, but in the past, children his age would already be earnestly studying in school.”
“Let Morgan get familiar with the place first, and after he has built a good foundation, he can return, and afterwards, go on normal weekends and holidays,” the Old Master suggested.
Rarely so, even the Old Madam, who usually dotes on Morgan, nodded in agreement, “There is some truth in what Grandfather says.
Especially since Morgan has just awakened his abilities and sensed some danger.
It’s indeed reassuring to send him to Lanarn Training Ground.
...
Any imminent danger should emerge within a month and be resolved by then.”
Cindy Clarke and Adrian Zhekova nodded.
They came to discuss this with the elderly couple, especially to hear their opinions.
The little guy seemed a bit weak and helpless now.
He had already run over to Cindy’s side, hugging her waist, snuggling in her arms.
Seeing his vulnerable look, the Old Master and the Old Madam were also heartbroken.
The little guy had never thought that he would also be forced to separate from Cindy.
“Are you scared?” the Old Master asked Morgan.
Morgan nodded honestly.
Of course he was scared.
“This is what it means to be a child of our family.
It is an experience that comes with the territory,” the Old Madam sighed deeply.
“In a family like ours, the more you receive, the more you have to give.
Input and output are always balanced.”
“Not only you, your Great Grandfather, your Grandfather, your Second Grandpa, even your Third Grandpa who is now always out and about, as well as your Father, your Fourth Grandfather, your Second Uncle, Third Uncle…
all of them went through this.”
“Especially your Third Grandpa, even though he didn’t take on any businesses when he grew up, he still went to Lanarn Training Ground when he was 5.”
“Dad, did you also go?” the little boy asked Adrian Zhekova.
Adrian Zhekova nodded, “I was also sent there when I was 5. 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Derek Smith, your big brother, also went there.
Even now, he is still training there.
But, since he already has a well-established foundation, he doesn’t need to be there every day.
Like your Great Grandfather said, he only stays there during holidays, and when there is school, he also needs to come back.”
“Indeed, Frank Smith, as well as Alexander Miller, are there as well.” Adrian patted Morgan’s head.
“So, you don’t need to worry about not having buddies.
All your buddies are waiting for you there.”
When Adrian first mentioned that he also went to Lanarn Training Ground at the age of 5, Morgan didn’t feel much about it.
After all, Adrian was now too old for Morgan to relate to his experiences.
However, when Adrian mentioned his little buddies such as Derek Smith, Frank Smith, and Alexander Miller, Morgan noticeably relaxed.
As long as he wasn’t alone and had friends with him, he wouldn’t be afraid.
“It’s too late now, you can ask your buddies tomorrow,” Cindy also suggested “You can gain some insight from them, it will also help you prepare mentally.”
Morgan nodded weakly, his mind was still in a daze.
He hadn’t processed everything yet.
How did a visit to the family mansion today result in an abrupt decision for him to start training?
Cindy’s heart ached as she watched him.
She hugged Morgan into her arms and kissed the top of his soft hair.
“Don’t worry, your dad and I will try our best to come and see you when we can,” Cindy assured him, then turned to Adrian.
Adrian nodded, “We should still give Willis Wolfe face, if we go there, we should be able to stay in his training ground.”
Though Morgan was still a small boy, he could not be duped easily.
Cindy then began discussing it seriously with him, “Your father has to work during the day and I need to study in the school, just like you.
Both of us are working hard.
This is what I propose: your father and I will go to the Lanarn Training Ground every Friday, and we will only return on Sunday night.”
“That way, out of a seven-day week, you would actually be spending two days and three nights with us.
You would only need to hold on for four weeks, then we can bring you back home,” Cindy explained.
By breaking up the timeline like this, the time appeared more fragmented, rendering it less daunting.
Morgan’s countenance visibly relaxed.
“When everything returns to normal, you will go for training on holidays, so you can join your little buddies and train together, then return together,” Cindy continued.
Upon hearing this, Morgan felt even more relaxed.
That didn’t sound too bad.
As long as there were his buddies, he wouldn’t be so worried.
“So…
did Frank and Alexander go there before I did?” Morgan asked.
“Of course.” Adrian nodded, “They have already undergone what you’re about to, so you must be brave.
There’s no way you can let your good friends surpass you.”
Morgan bobbed his head resolutely, “Okay!”
“For now, don’t worry about all that,” the Old Master advised, “You still have nearly half a month’s time to enjoy yourself and come to terms with the impending changes.”
“Rest assured, although the training is rigorous, the uncles at the Lanarn Training Ground are very caring.
If there’s anything you need, feel free to tell them.
Besides, they’re our friends too, so there’s no need for you to be formal.
However, during training, if you fail to meet the requirements, they won’t exempt you from punishment.”
Morgan nodded dejectedly.
Adrian knew that there’s no use saying too much now.
Morgan would have to experience it himself to understand.
Actually, once he gets used to it, it’s not that daunting.
“Don’t forget to tell your parents as well,” the Old Madam reminded them.
It would be inappropriate for them to bypass Maverick Zhekova and his wife, Victoria Wheeler, and converse only with the grandparents.
“When we go back later, we can stop by my parents’ house and discuss this with them,” Adrian Zhekova replied.
“Good,” the Old Madam was now at ease.
The couple then excused themselves to not disrupt the yet-to-be night sleep of the elderly people.
They knew they couldn’t rush this.
So, they decided to head back first.
Along the way, they stopped at Maverick Zhekova and Victoria Wheeler’s to discuss the matter.
Maverick Zhekova agreed with the Old Master’s opinion.
On the other hand, Victoria Wheeler, although she always vied for attention with Morgan, was hurting for the little guy just like Cindy.
After Adrian and Cindy left with Morgan, Victoria Wheeler, who till now had suppressed her urge to speak, finally couldn’t help but say, “This is simply absurd!”
“When Adrian first went to the Lanarn Training Ground, it broke my heart.
Now, Morgan is also going.
Adrian was alright back then, at least he had enjoyed the luxuries of home since his birth.
After enjoying five years of blessings before going to endure hardships at the Lanarn Training Ground, he deserved it,” Victoria Wheeler said.
“But, Morgan just got to know us.
Even though he never lived in hardship when he was with Cindy, as she did her best for him, it’s still different from growing up in our family.”
