Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 1305
Chapter 1305: Chapter 1305: Not Because of Guilt_1 Chapter 1305 -1305: Not Because of Guilt_1 But now, Adrian Zhekova’s agitated reaction could be interpreted as the excitement after being falsely accused.
But it could also be interpreted as the intense reaction after feeling guilty.
Ethan Zhekova looked into Adrian’s eyes and reminded him, “Have you forgotten what my ability is?”
Ethan Zhekova: “…”
He was currently emotionally charged and struggled to control himself, let alone being directly stared at by Adrian’s penetrating gaze.
Adrian saw through Ethan in an instant.
Instinctly, Ethan Zhekova quickly avoided Adrian Zhekova’s gaze.
Adrian smirked coldly, “If you’re not guilty, why would you avoid my eyes and not dare to face me?”
Ethan Zhekova suddenly halted his movements, instantly filled with regret.
...
Just now, he reacted subconsciously because he was so panicked.
Now that Adrian had pointed it out, Ethan also realized that he had acted incorrectly.
“I just didn’t want you to see through me.
Who would want to be completely transparent and without any privacy in front of someone?” Ethan said, “You’re trying to divert the focus and change the subject.”

“I avoided your gaze not because I felt guilty, but because I didn’t want you to pry into my privacy!” Ethan defended himself.
“Besides, even if you claim that you can read my thoughts, how can you prove it?
You could say anything to defame me,” Ethan argued, “No one else knows whether what you said is true or false.”
“You’re wrong,” Adrian said indifferently, “I didn’t plan to use this ability to solve the matter.”
Ethan was surprised.
Since Adrian said so, how did he intend to resolve the matter?
Soon after, Adrian played a sound recording.
When Ethan heard the woman’s voice, he found it somewhat familiar.
The voice only uttered one sentence initially, too fast, and besides, a voice passing through a machine always contains some differences from the original.
That’s why Ethan didn’t recognize it immediately.
But when he heard the third sentence, Ethan knew the voice.
It was Wendy Clarke!
Upon discovering it was Wendy Clarke, Ethan felt a sinking feeling.
A sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
As he listened, he felt something was wrong.
Additionally, he vaguely felt the words Wendy said in the recording were familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before.
It wasn’t until his voice appeared in the recording.
Ethan finally recalled where he had heard them before.
It was clearly the conversation he had initially planned with Wendy Clarke to stop Cindy Clarke on the road.
“Surprisingly, Wendy recorded it!”
Ethan never expected that he would make such a simple mistake, allowing Wendy to record their conversation.
It was indeed his oversight.
Because he had always looked down on Wendy, deep in his heart he never respected her, and thus did not even take basic precautions against her.
Yet unexpectedly, he was caught by the person he least regarded.
Ethan was also astonished in his heart.
If Wendy had such compelling evidence, why didn’t she use it to threaten them when he was completely absolving himself and leaving Wendy to deal with it?
Of course, Wendy couldn’t use it.
If she dared to use it to threaten him at that time,
This piece of evidence wouldn’t have been sent out, and Wendy would have been dealt with first.
So, Wendy didn’t dare to mention it.
Ethan realized that Wendy was biding her time.
She saved the evidence and waited for the right moment to strike him.
However, Ethan didn’t expect that Wendy would hand this over to Adrian Zhekova.
Now Ethan couldn’t comprehend it.
Since Wendy clearly resented Cindy, why would she help her?
After all, Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke are one and the same.
Helping Adrian Zhekova is equivalent to helping Cindy Clarke.
The road blockade against Cindy Clarke was orchestrated by Wendy Clarke.
Why is she helping Adrian Zhekova now?
Could it be that she felt that if she gave the evidence to Adrian, he would protect her?
Ethan didn’t realize at all that Adrian actually forced it from Wendy.
Ethan didn’t have time to think about all this now.
Just the dialogue in the recording could condemn him already.
He couldn’t even pay attention to what was said later in the recording.
He felt as if his world was over.
His head buzzed, and he couldn’t hear a single word from the recording.
Edward Dewer now better understood that he was implicated by his son.
In the past, no matter how much infighting occurred in the family, Old Master never mentioned about his dismissal.
The biggest taboo in the family is to harm the family members.
You can feel resentful, compete for power, and position based on abilities.
If you possess those capabilities, you can rightfully compete.
If you lost, it only means that you lack the skills.
You can compete with each other in work.
But there’s one thing you can’t do: hurt each other.
If you harbor malicious intentions against your family, it’s an unforgivable sin.
And Ethan Zhekova made precisely such a mistake.
