Chapter 1177: Chapter 1177: You Skip Class?_1 Chapter 1177 -1177: You Skip Class?_1 Cindy Clarke was already so shocked that she couldn’t speak.
Given Wendy’s situation, did Joshua still feel that Lyke Zhekova was too old for her?
What had he been thinking?
She realized that, after so many years apart, she did not know Joshua anymore.
She no longer recognized him.
He used to be a particularly honest man with a clear understanding of his boundaries.
But now, he had changed to such an extent.
...
He was almost becoming like Christy Xenos.
“Are you telling me all this because you have a candidate in mind?” Cindy asked incredulously.
Was not even Ethan Zhekova enough for their taste?
No matter what the true relationship between Ethan and Wendy was, Wendy surely hadn’t disclosed the whole truth to her family.
So in the eyes of Joshua and Christy, Wendy was Ethan’s legitimate girlfriend.
Although Cindy was rather annoyed with Ethan,
Objectively speaking, Ethan was still quite popular outside the Zhekova Family.
Externally, Ethan presented himself as a gentleman.
Under normal circumstances, Joshua and Christy should be happy and cherish this relationship.
But unexpectedly, they weren’t satisfied.
“Doesn’t Adrian Zhekova have a younger brother?” Joshua said.
“As far as I know, he is still single.
And furthermore, he’s around the same age as Wendy…”
Cindy abruptly stood up, her eyes blazing with anger.
She hadn’t expected this family to be so greedy!
“Dad, let me be straight, it’s impossible!” Although Cindy was furious, she still managed to control her temper.
“Wendy is not worthy!
She wants to bring trouble, let it be someone else’s trouble, not the Zhekova Family’s!”
“If she doesn’t have self-awareness and makes a fool of herself, I can’t stop her.
But don’t plan on doing anything to our family members.
Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!” After saying this, Cindy walked away.
“Cindy!” Joshua was a bit angry.
But they were in the shop, and there were no other customers at the time.
Only the waiter was there, and Joshua didn’t want to make a scene.
He lowered his voice and said, “Cindy, how can you speak about your sister like that, you…”
“I said what I meant, Dad.
If you want to see me, your daughter, purely for the sake of seeing me, I welcome that.
But if it’s to benefit Wendy, I’m sorry, but please don’t bother coming to see me again,” Cindy retorted coldly.
“Doesn’t it embarrass you that she’s eating from her bowl while eyeing what’s in the pot?” Cindy said coldly, “You should look at what kind of a person Samson is, and whether Wendy is a match for him!”
“Don’t think that because the Zhekova family doesn’t care about social conventions, you can introduce anyone to them.
The Zhekova family isn’t a garbage dump.
They don’t accept trash.” Cindy’s words were blunt and harsh.
A few confrontations with her family after their reunion made it clear to Cindy.
If she wasn’t direct with them, they wouldn’t understand.
Of course, even if she was blunt, they probably still wouldn’t understand.
People with high self-esteem always think that the truth from others is wrong.
“Cindy, what you’re saying is too harsh.
When did you become like this?” Joshua Clarke looked at Cindy with heartache.
“I want to ask, Dad, when did you become like this?
Ask yourself, if you had a son, would you want him to inherit a woman like Wendy?
A woman who, in her early years, sold herself for money, gave birth to a son for a married man, then sold her son.
Then, in order to climb higher, she seduced trust-fund babies around her, was disdainfully rejected, and became a laughingstock.
Then, knowing that the rich wouldn’t take responsibility for her, she willingly accompanies a trust-fund baby simply for money.”
“Looked down upon by him, yet too proud to settle for less, she tried to seek out a better man but was rejected by his family.
This woman, in the end, comes to your son.
Or let’s put it this way: you don’t have a son.
If you met such a woman when you were young, would you want her?”
Joshua’s face reddened, and he could only mumble repeatedly, “Wendy’s not like that.”
“You don’t answer directly?
That means you don’t accept it.” Cindy laughed, “Then on what grounds do you expect a pure, undaunted young man, who has never been in a relationship, to accept Wendy?”
“I!I…” Joshua stumbled over his words, unable to formulate a response.
“I have to go now, I have a class to return to.
I won’t see you out.
Anyway, my mother and Wendy are waiting for you in the coffee shop outside the campus,” Cindy said.
It came like a bolt out of the blue and stunned Joshua heavily.
How does Cindy know this?
Seeing Joshua’s expression, what else could be uncertain?
“I’ll walk you to the gate,” Cindy insisted to make sure Joshua left the campus.
She initially was not particularly worried about Joshua, apart from him being easily swayed.
However, after this session, Cindy saw Joshua in a new light and became less confident.
As it happened, Joshua also wanted to use the trip to further persuade Cindy.
But Cindy wasn’t easily swayed.
And strangely, it felt like the road that was previously so long as they headed to the café had now become extremely short on the way back. 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
“Sister-in-law!” Just as Cindy and Joshua were walking, they suddenly heard the voice of Samson Zhekova.
Cindy thought it was too inconvenient for Samson to come at this time.
She had no choice but to stop and face him.
She really didn’t want Samson to meet Joshua.
Although Joshua couldn’t do anything to Samson,
It would surely lead to an unpleasant scene.
Cindy stopped and subtly signaled Samson, trying to get him to quickly get the idea and leave.
Unfortunately, Samson was not Adrian and didn’t share the same tacit understanding with her.
He ran towards Cindy, seemingly oblivious to her signals.
Cindy sighed quietly in resignation.
It seemed she could not avoid this.
She saw Samson running towards her, happily exclaiming “Sister-in-law!”
Then, catching her apparently off-guard, he said, “You’re skipping class.”
Cindy sighed and said, “My dad came to visit me.
We just had a chat and now I’m about to send him away.”
Samson’s timely arrival was, of course, not a coincidence.
In school, to ensure Cindy was well taken care of and didn’t come across any accidents, Samson had instructed his staff to immediately inform him of any abnormalities.
Just now, a security guard had dutifully reported to Samson upon seeing Joshua Clarke.
As soon as he heard that it was Joshua Clarke who came to visit, he felt an instinctual agreement with Cindy’s instincts that this surely meant trouble.
That’s why he hurried over.
He didn’t understand why Cindy seemed like she didn’t want him to meet Joshua.
It seemed odd.
Cindy didn’t seem like the type to be embarrassed by her father.
Joshua had not met Ethan or Samson before.
But he could still tell that the man in front of him should be Samson Zhekova.
And besides, Wendy had mentioned that Ethan didn’t get along well with his family.
Thus, Ethan Zhekova would not be so warmly affable to Cindy.
“This is…” Joshua asked, feigning ignorance.
“This is my brother-in-law, Samson Zhekova.” Cindy did not hide anything.
