NOVPUBChapter 1176: Chapter 1176: But What Did My Fourth Uncle Do Wrong_1 Chapter 1176 -1176: But What Did My Fourth Uncle Do Wrong_1 Cindy Clarke laughed after hearing this.
She thought, Joshua Clarke sure has some audacity.
Joshua Clarke is an honest man who never dared to dream of things beyond his reach.
He believed such dreams were impractical and it was better to have realistic expectations.
However, influenced by Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke, he had changed for better or worse.
“Dad, I don’t know where you heard this from, but it seems like there’s been a misunderstanding,” Cindy Clarke explained, “It wasn’t me who introduced Peggy Lewis to my Fourth Uncle.
Just think about it, Peggy Lewis is my best friend and if she were with my Fourth Uncle, I would have to call her Fourth Aunt.
...
Isn’t that messing up the hierarchy?
Plus, she’s also Morgan Zhekova’s Godmother.
Would Morgan need to start calling her Fourth Grandmother?”
“It’s in fact that my Fourth Uncle met Peggy Lewis and fell for her.
As a junior, I have no right to interfere in my uncle’s love life, right?
Therefore, the causality here needs to be reversed.
It wasn’t me who introduced them, but after they had met and my uncle happened to like Peggy, I was in no position to oppose.”
“That !” Joshua Clarke started, remembering what Christy Xenos had said, then continued, “Even so, at least give Wendy a chance to get to know your Fourth Uncle.
He hasn’t even met her yet.
Considering Wendy’s excellence, if your Fourth Uncle met her, he might also …”
“Also, fall in love?” Cindy Clarke interrupted and finished Joshua’s sentence.
“Dad, it’s understandable that you see good in your own daughter.
But what on earth did my Fourth Uncle do wrongly to be forced to like Wendy?” she mocked.
“What are you even talking about?
What do you mean he ‘did wrong’?” Joshua restated, looking displeased.
“My Fourth Uncle, an eligible bachelor who never had a relationship, not because he is picky but because of his moral integrity.
He persevered in his pursuit of the ideal woman, not someone who sleeps with old men for money, becomes a third party in a marriage, gives birth to a man’s child and then abandons her own flesh and blood, and then tries to hook up with trust fund boys and climb up the social ladder.”
“In no way am I looking down on women with rich relational experiences, but Wendy’s expeditions aren’t valuable love experiences, but all about sleeping around.
And there’s a big difference between being the predator and the prey.
If she were forced, it could generate sympathy, but her willful actions just don’t inspire sympathy at all.”
“So, I’m wondering, what did my Fourth Uncle do wrong to end up with Wendy and be the cleanup hitter?” Cindy said bluntly, “You see her as excellent, but neither I nor anyone in the Zhekova family see that excellence.”
“How can you talk about your sister like that!” Joshua shouted, his face turning red.
He thought Wendy was indeed excellent.
But listening to Cindy summarise Wendy’s questionable past, his face burned in shame.
“I’m just stating the facts,” Cindy remained unmoved.
Joshua Clarke opened his mouth, wanting to argue back.
“What you just said, about the Zhekova family disliking her, that’s not completely true,” he couldn’t help but retort.
after all, Wendy is clearly with Ethan Zhekova.
Ethan Zhekova is part of the Zhekova family, and he clearly likes Wendy.
Cindy is well aware of the situation between Wendy and Ethan Zhekova
Without waiting for Joshua to mention it, Cindy took the initiative to say, “You mean Ethan Zhekova quite likes Wendy, right?”
“You know about it?” Joshua looked surprised.
“Ethan Zhekova liked Wendy so much that he even publically announced his single status, refusing to acknowledge Wendy as his girlfriend.” Cindy said, “By refusing to acknowledge her, but still dating her, essentially Wendy is just his mistress.”
Given she was talking with her father, Cindy tried to not be too explicit.
But the term ‘mistress’ already had quite a strong impact on Joshua.
“That’s impossible!” Joshua immediately denied without a second thought.
It’s obvious that Ethan Zhekova is not good enough, that’s why Wendy doesn’t consider him.
“Why don’t you go back and ask if Wendy has ever been to Ethan Zhekova’s place, not his parents’ house, but Ethan’s personal residence, has she been there?
Is Ethan planning to visit you guys?
Just after I started dating Peggy, we visited the Zhekova family mansion to meet our elders, and my Fourth Uncle has already visited Peggy’s family.”
“Wendy and Ethan have been together for a while, but it doesn’t seem like they have made any move like that,” Cindy continued.
For the first time, Joshua seemed to catch on and asked, “How do you know so much about their relationship?”
“To prevent Wendy from pestering me, I naturally needed to be more attuned,” Cindy said, “and unlike Wendy’s, Ethan’s situation within the Zhekova family is common knowledge to me.”
“Your information must be mistaken, or there must be some misunderstanding,” Joshua firmly said, “There’s no way the relationship between Wendy and Ethan could be like that.”
“Alright,” Cindy didn’t debate further, “Let’s just assume Wendy and Ethan aren’t like that and are just dating.”
“Ethan Zhekova is my Fourth Uncle’s nephew.
I can’t introduce my Fourth Uncle’s nephew’s girlfriend to my Fourth Uncle, could I?
Isn’t that embarrassing?
Surely nobody would want to hear it?”
“My Fourth Uncle isn’t a professional cleanup hitter, taking in what Mr.
Lopez rejected or what his nephew didn’t want.” Cindy said sarcastically, “All the good things can’t fall into Wendy’s lap only, right?”
“She has no self-respect, is willing to sell anything for money, and turns to whoever she wants next, without considering whether or not they like her; is she trying to push herself onto everyone?”
“Forget her not having that allure, I don’t have the ability to force my Fourth Uncle to like her either,” Cindy said bluntly.
“If you believe she’s actually outstanding and capable, then let her find someone herself.
Don’t worry about my Fourth Uncle.
He has a girlfriend, and they love each other dearly, so she doesn’t need to put effort in that direction.”
“Now that she and Ethan Zhekova are apparently so close, let her continue to strive with Ethan,” Cindy laughed, “If she can get married to Ethan, that would be a good thing.”
Let two troubles cause trouble for each other, how great is that.
Listening to Cindy’s argument, Joshua couldn’t help but feel that she made some sense.
As he was about to leave, he suddenly received a message from Christy Xenos on Whatsapp.
Reminding him to tell Cindy about Samson Zhekova.
Only then did Joshua remember, his intention of the visit was not to introduce Wendy to Lyke Zhekova, but Samson Zhekova.
He had been sidetracked by Cindy’s argument.
Just as he was about to leave, he sat back down and said, “I didn’t mean for you to introduce Wendy to Lyke Zhekova.
Nor did I hint at anything related to Ethan’s past girlfriend.”
Cindy thought, they sure have some thick skin.
First, Wendy wasn’t Ethan Zhekova’s ex-girlfriend, and secondly, Lyke Zhekova certainly wouldn’t want Wendy.
Where did their confidence come from?
“Besides, for Wendy, Lyke Zhekova is a bit old,” Joshua added.
