Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 1269

Chapter 1269: Chapter 1269: Before the Wedding_1 Chapter 1269 -1269: Before the Wedding_1 What did Wendy Clarke mean by that?

Was she despising him?

“Do you really expect me to work tirelessly for you?” Ethan Zhekova said impatiently, “Don’t forget that we are collaborators now.”

“Collaboration means that both parties should be able to get the job done.

Otherwise, if only one party is successful, and the other is failing and dragging its feet, it’s not collaboration, it’s patronage.” Ethan Zhekova sneered.

“You couldn’t even handle such a simple task, and now you have the nerve to ask for my help?” Ethan Zhekova said coldly, “To ask for my help, you need to have something valuable to offer.”

“But right now, I see no value in you that would make me want to lend a hand.

You have done nothing but exploit my contacts, waste my resources and time, and you have had no positive effect.” Ethan Zhekova scoffed.

“If you want my help, show some worth,” Ethan Zhekova tapped his fingers on the desk a few times, “Demonstrate to me through your actions.

...

If you can help me, then I can help you.”

Ethan Zhekova twirled his pen: “When you’ve accomplished that, I’ll help you sort out the restaurant issue.”

“I didn’t need to look into it to know that my older brother meddled.

You sent people to intercept Cindy, my older brother must have investigated them.

When he discovered that you sent those people, of course, he would come after you.” Ethan Zhekova laughed coldly.

Wendy Clarke argued indignantly, “You were the one who asked me to do this in the first place!”

“We’re collaborating, do you know what that means?” Ethan Zhekova retorted, “You were given this part to deal with, leaving the rest to me.

But because you’re so incompetent, you even can’t handle this minor task, which resulted in me not being able to proceed with the subsequent matters.

All my preparations were in vain!”

“I haven’t even asked you to make up for these losses yet, and you dare complain to me?” Ethan Zhekova added.

“Yes, it was me who asked you to do it, but who made you leave trails everywhere!

If you were a bit smarter and handled things more neatly, thus making it impossible for Adrian Zhekova to trace it back to you, even if he suspected you, he would have no evidence and wouldn’t be able to do anything to you.”

“Then you would not have had to rush to me seeking a solution, right?” Ethan Zhekova tossed his pen casually aside, “If you had handled matters correctly, I would be able to immediately follow up.

I wouldn’t have to sit here and listen to you complain!”

“Since my older brother interfered, you should know that this issue won’t be easily resolved.

Even if you sort out all the demands of the restaurant, even if you do everything to perfection, problems could still be found in what you’ve done.

They’ll make you revise it over and over again.”

“Once you’ve sorted this side out, they’ll find issues elsewhere.

When you’ve addressed those, something wrong would pop up here again.

Unless you can keep every corner, every moment of the restaurant in good shape,” Ethan Zhekova said, “If not, just wait for the restaurant to continue its shutdown.”

Wendy Clarke stayed quiet, her heart was a mess.

She had most certainly taken Ethan Zhekova’s words to heart.

Although she usually found Ethan Zhekova stupid, there was one thing he was very good at: understanding Adrian Zhekova.

Therefore, Wendy took Ethan’s claims about Adrian seriously, excluding his criticisms and jealousy.

Ethan Zhekova stood up: “So, you should find a way to make up for this failure.

I can give you another chance.”

“If you can handle that, I’ll help you sort out the restaurant issue.

If you can’t, then you can figure out what to do with the restaurant yourself,” Ethan Zhekova said.

“So you won’t care about the time in between?” Finally, Wendy understood.

“That’s right,” Ethan Zhekova replied, “Do you want to leave on your own, or should I have someone drag you out?”

Wendy took a deep breath and spun around, leaving.

Ethan Zhekova was fully capable of having someone take her out by force.

Once Wendy left, Ethan Zhekova sat back down, frowning.

He picked up the pen on the table and threw it angrily against the wall.

***

Wendy felt, since Adrian Zhekova had already caught her.

She didn’t dare act rashly for now.

At least she didn’t dare provoke Cindy in the meantime.

During this period, rather than figuring out a way to give Cindy a hard time, it would be better to think about how to reopen the restaurant.

While Wendy tried to figure out a solution, Cindy and Adrian Zhekova’s wedding finally took place as planned.

On the eve of the wedding, Cindy was nervous and couldn’t sleep.

Adrian Zhekova had already arranged for Mia Sullivan to come over with her team to do Cindy’s makeup.

Weddings in the North are all held at noon.

Following tradition, the groom must pick up the bride early in the morning.

If everything goes smoothly, it should be around 7 o’clock.

The bride needs to change into her wedding gown, get her makeup done, all preparations need to be made early.

She should get up at least three to four hours before the event.

Which means, she should be awake by three in the morning.

The bride has to leave from her parents’ home, so naturally, Cindy, being the goddaughter of Mr.

and Mrs.

Lewis, went to their place.

Mr.

and Mrs.

Lewis never anticipated that they would one day have two daughters to get married, and moreover within the same month, with just half a month apart.

Before Cindy came into their lives, they only had Peggy Lewis as their daughter.

They never imagined having this kind of fate.

With the help of Lyke Zhekova, Mr.

and Mrs.

Lewis’ house had already been renovated.

Since both Cindy and Peggy Lewis were leaving from their house for their weddings.

The renovation smell needed to be cleaned out before then.

Lyke Zhekova specifically hired a professional team for this.

They managed to remove the smell from the house before the wedding.

Cindy arrived at the Lewis’ home the night before the wedding, along with Peggy Lewis.

Peggy Lewis, who had already registered for marriage with Lyke Zhekova, wasn’t suitable to be a bridesmaid.

Even so, as a family member, she came with Cindy.

She would be needed to block the door the next morning.

The bridal party consisted of Cynthia Florine, Gladys Joy, Jasmine Hudson, and Ava Brown.

The groomsmen were Adrian Zhekova’s single friends, including Clifford Wells.

Morgan Zhekova really wanted to come with Cindy.

However, the next day, when the bride would be picked up, it would be chaotic here.

The adults wouldn’t have the time to look after Morgan.

It would problematic if anything happened to Morgan.

So after much persuasion, the little one agreed not to come along.

Consequently, Morgan couldn’t join the party to pick up the bride.

For the same reasons.

That left the little one fairly heartbroken.

He really wanted to see how his dad would pick up Cindy.

Samson Zhekova promised to livestream the event for Morgan, finally persuading the little one to stay behind.

Samson Zhekova had already completed leading his team’s competition and had made it back before the wedding day.

Even if he hadn’t finished, Samson Zhekova would have returned to attend the wedding.

This occasion was too important for him to miss.

Hence, Adrian Zhekova sent Morgan over to the family mansion on the eve of the wedding.
