Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 1262

Chapter 1262: Chapter 1262: What’s the Fuss About_1 Chapter 1262 -1262: What’s the Fuss About_1 “Dad, how are you?

Has Cindy visited you?” Wendy Clarke asked.

“No.” Joshua Clarke said solemnly.

Wendy immediately expressed indignation.

“She’s absolutely awful!

You treat her the best, and she ignores you on regular days.

Now that she’s been told you are hospitalized because of an injury, she doesn’t even bother to visit you.”

“Dad, do you see her true colors now?” Wendy immediately continued, “Even though you’re okay now, Cindy doesn’t know that.

...

In her eyes, you’re in great trouble, but she still won’t visit you.”

“That’s not true,” Joshua defended, “She and Morgan were both scared, and they specifically asked me about my condition.

Knowing that I am fine, she decided not to come for the time being.

She wanted to stay home to take care of Morgan.

The kid was terrified and couldn’t be left alone.”

“Speaking of which, I thought you just sent someone to stop Cindy.

How could you be so excessive!” Joshua questioned.

“Dad, what are you talking about?”

“Don’t play the fool!

Cindy showed me the video taken by her dashcam!

I found it incredibly horrifying just by watching the video.

Those people surrounded the car.

If the police hadn’t arrived, they could have lifted the car away!”

“Just watching the video made me scared, let alone Cindy and Morgan who actually experienced that terror,” Joshua said, “I thought you were just stopping her from going to the competition, I didn’t expect you made things worse by hurting them in person!”

“What have I harmed?” Wendy defended, “Do you think it’s easy to stop her?

Just stand in front of her and tell her not to compete?”

“I didn’t ask anyone to hurt her.

I just had her car surrounded so that she couldn’t leave.

Have you seen her injured?

Is her son injured?

If we didn’t do that, how could we stop her?”

“No matter what I do, I’m always wrong.

Even if she gets a little fright, you feel bad for her,” Wendy said coldly.

“I didn’t…” Joshua denied.

“You were the one who didn’t want her to come and visit you,” Wendy said.

Joshua remained silent.

“Forget it.

I didn’t hope that you would succeed anyway.

Plus, the competition is over, and it’s pointless to trick her here,” Wendy said.

“Why did you ask me to call her then?” Joshua asked.

“I just wanted you to see that you mean nothing to Cindy.

She simply doesn’t care about you.” Wendy sneered, “But who knew, you are so easily fooled by her.

She pacified you with a few words.”

“You believe her just because she said she got scared.” Wendy mocked, “Every time she disappoints you, you still forgive her.”

“She was truly terrified,” Joshua insisted, “I felt afraid just by watching the video, let alone her and Morgan.

Especially Morgan, such a small kid.

Wendy, you were really being thoughtless about this.

Even if you wanted to stop Cindy, Morgan was innocent.”

“Alright,” Wendy said impatiently, “Anyway, nothing was successful.

What’s the point of talking about it now?”

Wendy suddenly remembered something: “Since Cindy called the police, did she suspect that those people were instructed by someone?”

“Don’t worry, I have tested her.

Cindy didn’t overthink.

She thought those were just ordinary scammers who hit upon her misfortune,” Joshua said.

“Really?” Wendy was still somewhat unsure.

Could Cindy, who is very careful, not have thought about it?

Joshua, with a tone of wisdom and stability, said: “Really, you just relax.

You always say that I favor Cindy, but to me, both of you are equally important, and I don’t favor anyone.

I don’t want her to know what you did, so I have kept it from her and tested it.”

Wendy sighed in relief.

***

Cindy doesn’t care what Wendy is thinking about.

Now, Wendy’s impression on her was probably the same as Ethan’s impression on Adrian.

Because of the extra time in the afternoon, Cindy had more time to simmer the soup base slowly.

She could extract more essence from the soup, and the taste was certainly better than the one she made during the competition in the morning.

While the soup was simmering on low heat, Cindy continued to prepare other dishes.

At this moment, she received a call from Peggy Lewis.

“Cindy!

We’ve heard the news, you won the competition.” Right after picking the phone, she heard Peggy’s joyful voice.

“It was us.” Cindy said, “We retained a badge, hoping to reduce some pressure for our Offensive Team in the final.”

“Great, such good news, don’t we need to celebrate?” Peggy immediately said.

“Celebrate?” Cindy laughed, “How do you want to celebrate for me?”

“We will go to your place tonight.” Peggy said.

“You guys?” Cindy asked while chopping vegetables, “Are you coming with Fourth Uncle?”

“Of course, I can’t leave him alone.” Peggy said.

Cindy thought that Peggy and Lyke have really become inseparable.

“It looks like you have adapted quite well to your married life.” Cindy giggled.

“Mmm…

very easy to adapt to.” Peggy satisfied.

“Fortunately, I intend to celebrate tonight.

When will you guys be here?” Cindy asked.

“We will come after work, probably around 7 pm if we’re fast.” Peggy calculated the time.

“Sure, Adrian would be back home around the same time, so I’ll wait for you.”

Cindy got the call from Peggy.

Adrian wasn’t aware of this, he looked forward to getting off work, and hurriedly drove home.

Surprisingly, Peggy and Lyke arrived a bit earlier than Adrian.

As soon as Adrian walked in the door, he saw a pair of men’s and women’s shoes in the entrance hall.

Who visited at this time?

Are they planning to stay for dinner?

What guest has such a thick skin that they’re not leaving when it’s time for dinner.

Adrian was complaining while taking off his shoes.

Cindy was busy in the kitchen and didn’t hear Adrian’s arrival earlier.

Now when she heard him, she hurried out of the kitchen to the entrance.

“Are there guests in our house?” Adrian asked Cindy.

“Fourth Uncle and Peggy are here,” Cindy smiled.

“Why are they here at this time?” Adrian found it odd.

They should be enjoying their two-person world, why come here to join the fun.

“Didn’t they hear that I’ve won the competition?

So, they specially came to see me,” Cindy said.

Adrian: “…”

“It must be a special occasion for them to taste the winning dish from the competition.” Adrian was too familiar.

“Anyway, I was planning to prepare a full table of dishes.” Cindy said, “There are only three people in our house, it would be wasteful if I cooked too much.

But if I cook less, I’d feel unsatisfied.

Now that Peggy and Fourth Uncle are here, they have helped me a lot.”

In the face of Adrian’s reluctance, Cindy prompted, “Hurry up and greet our guests.”
