Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Third Uncle is Annoyed with Him_1 Chapter 1136 -1136: Third Uncle is Annoyed with Him_1 Adrian Zhekova was engrossed in his work, it seemed like quite a struggle.
Upon hearing the door, Adrian didn’t have time to look up and asked directly, “What’s up?”
“Did Morgan disturb you?” Cindy Clarke asked with a smile.
When Adrian recognized the voice as Cindy’s, he lifted his head quickly, a surprised look on his face: “You’re home from school so early?”
“Yes, I finished class at three.
Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I came to the company to see how you and Morgan are getting along.” Cindy remembered how she saw Morgan surrounded by people outside and couldn’t help but smile, “Did Morgan disturb you?”
Bringing up Morgan made Adrian’s head ache.
He rubbed his temples and reluctantly said: “That kid really is!”
“He did not cause any trouble, he just complained at first about the chair being uncomfortable, saying it was too hard and sharp.
So I put a cushion there for him.
Then he complained that the cushion was too slippery, so I just traded chairs with him.”
“Trade chairs?” Cindy’s eyes fell on the leather chair Adrian Zhekova was currently sitting in.
...
Adrian noticed Cindy’s gaze, and nodded reluctantly: “He liked this chair, so I traded mine with him.”
Next to the leather chair where Adrian Zhekova was sitting, there was a common wooden chair from a restaurant.
Although it was said to be wooden, it was actually made from compressed sawdust, not solid wood.
Such material is light, cheap, and has low cost.
However, it only has a simple backrest with no armrests. no𝚟𝚙u𝚋.c𝚘m
Sitting in it for a long time would indeed cause discomfort.
“You’ve been working in this small chair?” Cindy asked.
This chair, if you want to be generous, could be called a chair, but if it didn’t have a backrest, it would be just a stool!
Adrian nodded resignedly, “I’ve been sitting so long, my back is starting to ache.”
“Morgan indeed kept his promise, he didn’t run around.
He only moved back and forth in the chair.
And when he stopped moving, he watched cartoons and would even occasionally laugh.” Adrian rubbed his temples.
Parenting was certainly not an easy task.
“With him bustling about next to me, I couldn’t focus on my work,” Adrian sighed, “So, I had to send him away.”
Contrary to what one might expect, Morgan pushed his luck by saying, “Dad, it’s not that I’m not being good, but you asked me to leave!”
Adrian sneered: “Don’t think I don’t see through his tricks.
He was bored sitting next to me and decided to act out, so I would send him away.”
Morgan tested boundaries but wasn’t really causing trouble; mostly, it was just annoying to Adrian.
Morgan also promised, “Dad, even if I go out, I won’t run around.
Don’t worry.”
Adrian, tired to the core, waved his hand, no longer wanting to argue with him.
And so, Morgan left and was immediately caught by the secretaries.
That’s how Cindy found him when she arrived.
It’s a pity that Cindy did not witness the father-son battle.
Surprisingly, Adrian was defeated by Morgan.
Morgan is so clever, and Cindy is very pleased about this.
“How was school today?
Did everything go smoothly?” Adrian asked.
In fact, he had already called Samson Zhekova to ask.
However, he still wanted to hear what Cindy had to say.
No matter what Cindy said, just hearing her voice made him happy.
“It went smoothly,” Cindy said, “The teachers at the school are very qualified, and they do not discriminate in teaching.
Whether we are guest students or regular students, they criticize when needed, and affirm when deserved.”
Cindy recounted her experience at school to Adrian.
“You stop talking and get back to work,” Cindy said after finishing, feeling quite parched.
“I’m almost done with work.” Now that Morgan wasn’t nearby, Adrian’s work efficiency increased significantly.
Plus, with Cindy here now, he was extremely motivated.
Cindy didn’t want to disturb him, so she simply went out to find Morgan.
When the secretaries saw Cindy coming in, they felt awkward continuing to play with Morgan.
Cindy smiled and said, “Did Morgan disturb you?”
“Not at all, we all love having Morgan around.”
Cindy noticed that on the table in front of Morgan there were French fries, cookies, Snowflake Crisp, chocolate, plum candy, and potato chips.
His snack pile was fully stacked – an impressive feast.
At the moment, Morgan was even holding a cup of milk tea, drinking happily.
His visit here was truly a blissful experience.
Seeing Cindy arriving, the secretaries all retreated back to work.
Therefore, only Cindy and Morgan were left in the break room.
Cindy laughed and said, “Didn’t we agree not to bother dad?”
“Sitting next to dad with nothing to do, only watching him work is too boring!
And I don’t understand those tasks.
I’m only five years old, and dad really makes it hard for me.” Morgan expressed his own difficulties.
He’s only five years old; he didn’t understand such complicated work.
“You can’t cause a disturbance, making Dad unable to focus on his work.
He’s accumulated so much work, and there’s still more to do,” Cindy said.
“It’s not entirely my fault,” Morgan felt he had to defend himself, “I didn’t spend that much time sitting next to dad.
Dad always calls my Third Uncle.”
“He calls your third uncle?” Cindy vaguely guessed the reason.
Morgan said: “Yes.
I was sitting there doing nothing, I even counted for dad.
Dad calls Third Uncle every half hour, he made 8 calls total!”
Cindy: “…”
This child really has a lot of free time.
He was even able to count how many calls Adrian made.
Cindy calculated the time.
Wasn’t Adrian calling Samson throughout her class?
She wondered if Samson was overwhelmed.
“Dad keeps asking Third Uncle about your situation at school, if you’re being targeted or not,” Morgan said, “Third Uncle is fed up with him.”
“How do you know?
Could you hear what Third Uncle said during the call?” Cindy asked with a smile.
“I couldn’t at first, but then Third Uncle got so fed up he yelled, and I could hear him clearly.”
Morgan began to vividly recount.
At first, Samson found it reasonable when he received Adrian’s first two calls.
It was understandable that Adrian would worry about Cindy at school.
But after that, Samson realized the pattern; Adrian was calling every half hour.
That was definitely too much.
Samson was about to be driven mad by Adrian: “Brother!
Please give me a break!
This is too excessive!
Cindy is fine at school, not being singled out; everything is going smoothly.
If you call me every half an hour, how can I work?”
