Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 1261

Chapter 1261: Chapter 1261: Guarding_1 Chapter 1261 -1261: Guarding_1 “So, I really can’t leave.” Cindy Clarke apologized with a smile to the little guy, telling him a white lie right in front of him.

The little guy shook his head and walked away with his bag of chips.

He signaled that he didn’t hear, and that Cindy could exaggerate as much as she wanted.

“This…

this is that serious?” Joshua Clarke knew that Wendy Clarke was trying to hinder Cindy.

Because Cindy said in the morning that she was going to the hospital to visit him, but she didn’t.

Wendy kept a watchful eye on Cindy and found that Cindy’s car did not change direction, and still seemed to be heading to Pingla.

...

She could have coordinated with Ethan Zhekova and set up two options.

She had people setup in advance where Cindy would be stopped.

If Cindy didn’t go there, and instead went to the hospital, she would naturally not encounter those people.

But if Cindy chose to go to the competition, and when the car got to that location, those people would immediately appear to stop Cindy.

What would happen would all depend on Cindy’s choice.

Wendy did all this right in front of Joshua.

Joshua indeed knew Wendy’s intentions.

But Joshua had never imagined it would be that serious.

He thought it was just some obstacles to block the road.

Joshua didn’t want to ruin Cindy’s future.

But according to Wendy, this was just a defensive match, not that important.

Just a show.

The offensive teams from various countries were all strong, and all of them were stronger than the defensive team.

The defensive team was, in fact, just a decoration.

It was more of a formality.

It wouldn’t look good just giving away the badges; they should be earned through effort.

In any case, Joshua thought that since the defensive team was weaker than the offensive team, they were surely going to give away the badge.

Even if Cindy didn’t participate, she still had her teammates.

Missing one match would be a slight loss to Cindy, but it wouldn’t be a critical loss.

Joshua thought this way, so he agreed with Wendy’s method.

Even if he disagreed, it didn’t matter since Wendy wouldn’t listen to him anyway.

However, his disagreement and Wendy’s disregard, are two separate issues, and could not be confused.

But, Joshua never expected the situation to be as serious as Cindy portrayed.

He couldn’t help but question.

Would Cindy have exaggerated and deliberately misled him?

Cindy has done such things before.

Cindy uttered: “I will send you the video footage from the dashcam later.

You will realize that the actual situation was even scarier than what you see in the video.”

“I really can’t leave right now.

Ethan Zhekova has also called and asked, and the doctor said you are in good condition and asked us not to worry.

So I postponed visiting you.

Since you are doing well now, and you can talk fluently over the phone, you wouldn’t mind if I accompany Morgan first, right?

The kid got quite scared.”

“This…” Joshua was at a loss for words.

“Right, let me quickly send you the video.” Added Cindy.

After saying that, she took the opportunity to hang up the phone.

Cindy had long ago asked Cleave Roland to send a backup video to her mobile phone.

She anticipated that Joshua would inevitably ask her, it was just a matter of time.

Even if he didn’t ask, keeping the video was a good precaution.

However, Joshua really did not surprise her, and as expected, he had called to ask about it.

Despite confirming her anticipations and the video not being wasted, Cindy couldn’t feel happy about it.

Cindy took a deep breath, decided not to overthink it, sent the video to Joshua, and then continued with preparing the meals.

Joshua opened the video sent by Cindy and was really shocked.

It looked just like those doomsday movies where everyone was fighting to survive.

It also looked like being surrounded by zombies.

Anyway, it was scary just watching it.

Watching the video alone was quite terrifying, he could hardly imagine how horrifying it must have been for Cindy and Morgan to be trapped in the situation.

It’s no wonder Morgan was so frightened that he couldn’t leave Cindy.

Even he was shocked watching the video, not to mention Morgan, who was just a child.

Joshua hurriedly called Cindy again.

As soon as Cindy picked up the phone, she heard Joshua say, “Cindy, I really didn’t expect the situation to be so serious.

How’s Morgan doing?

Has he gotten any better?”

“Not yet,” Cindy replied, “I’m sticking to him closely right now.”

“Well, that’s fine, you should focus on the child first.” Joshua hurriedly said, “There’s nothing wrong over here, you don’t have to worry.”

“Okay,” Cindy nodded.

“Are you okay?” Joshua asked again.

“I’m fine.

Although I was also frightened, because I have to take care of Morgan, I don’t have the time to think too much about it, so I’m a little better now.” Cindy replied.

Upon hearing this, Joshua felt even worse.

Cindy was also scared, but she had to take care of Morgan, so she couldn’t afford to be scared.

Morgan has Cindy to take care of him, but who will take care of Cindy?

Joshua said with concern, “You should also take good rest.”

“Or…” Joshua wanted to suggest Christy Xenos to accompany Cindy, “Forget it.”

Joshua himself felt that his idea was bit too whimsical.

Christy Xenos would be willing to find Cindy, but certainly not to comfort Cindy.

And Cindy would not want Christy Xenos to accompany her.

If Christy Xenos really went, Cindy would probably be even more furious.

Cindy couldn’t guess Joshua’s thoughts.

No matter what, Cindy couldn’t have imagined that Joshua could have such fanciful thoughts.

However, when Joshua said “Forget it,” Cindy wasn’t curious about what he was thinking before.

“By the way, what about these people…

What happened to them in the end?” Joshua asked again.

“They were reported to the police, and the police arrested them.

But these scam artists can’t be dealt with too strictly, at most they will be detained for a few days.” Cindy said, leaving out Wendy to avoid alarming her.

Joshua was also afraid that Wendy would be exposed.

Although he thought Wendy had gone too far, he had never thought of exposing her.

If Cindy really found out about Wendy, it would be best to settle it privately.

As much as possible, they should avoid trouble.

“That’s letting them off too easily!” Joshua said indignantly.

“Who says not?

But what can you do.” Cindy said, “Such things have always happened often.

Now I can only admit my bad luck.”

Joshua heard Cindy say this and sighed in relief.

It seems that Cindy didn’t think that someone was instigating this, she just thought it was a simple scam.

“Morgan is calling for me again.” Cindy said hurriedly, “I need to hang up.”

“Oh, alright.” Joshua nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Joshua called Wendy.

Wendy was not in the hospital now.

It was Wendy who suggested he should call, but Joshua also wanted to call.

Despite knowing that he was hospitalized with serious injuries, which was a lie to deceive Cindy, but Cindy didn’t know that.

In this situation, Cindy hadn’t come to see him till now.

Joshua couldn’t help feeling upset.

So when Wendy suggested he should call Cindy, Joshua readily agreed.
