Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 1319

Chapter 1319: Chapter 1319_1 Chapter 1319 -1319_1 Wendy Clarke followed the two into the Elderly Care Center.

They hitched a ride on the electric shuttle car used within the center.

The shuttle was similar to those used on golf courses.

It was slow, electric, and environmentally friendly.

Accidents within the center were also relatively infrequent.

Healthy elders, if they wished, could drive the car themselves.

Those who weren’t up to it could have the driver transport them.

...

The two guards escorted Wendy in the car around the center before stopping in front of an apartment building.

Wendy followed them into the apartment.

The living conditions in the apartment were excellent and the exterior decorations were no less impressive than the other high-end residences she had seen.

If no one mentioned this was in an Elderly Care Center, it would be mistaken for a high-end residential area in Belfard.

From the looks of it, this place was even more upscale than her home.

The three of them entered the elevator.

The inside of the elevator was also well-designed.

And it wasn’t just for show.

Guard A pressed three, and the elevator quickly arrived at the third floor.

The three exited the elevator, and so far, Wendy was impressed with what she saw.

Eventually, they stopped in front of an apartment door.

Wendy saw that the door was equipped with a fingerprint lock.

The lock was fitted with a peephole feature.

It could transfer a video of those approaching the door on the screen inside.

Shortly after Guard A rang the doorbell, someone from inside responded, “Coming!”

The door was opened by a woman in her thirties.

“This is Christy Xenos’ daughter, she has come to visit.” Guard A stated.

“Oh, come in.” The woman moved aside, inviting the three of them in.

Upon stepping in, Wendy spotted Christy Xenos sitting in the living room watching TV.

Around her were snacks like dried shrimp, squid strings, and pork floss buns.

While she watched TV and drank tea, she seemed more at ease than she did at home.

“Mom?” Wendy called out.

“Wendy!” Hearing her voice, Christy Xenos immediately set down her cup of tea and rushed over.

“Wendy!” Christy Xenos hold onto Wendy’s arm, feeling all over it, “Are you hurt?

How did Adrian Zhekova treat you after he took me away?”

Wendy quickly glanced at the two guards beside her, afraid they might report their conversation back to Adrian Zhekova.

“Mom, I’m okay.” Wendy quickly reassured.

She decided not to mention the humiliation she suffered in the afternoon.

If it had just been Christy Xenos, Wendy would have definitely confessed and cursed Zhekova with her.

However, with Zhekova’s men and the nanny present, Wendy couldn’t bear to say such things.

“Really?” Christy Xenos scrutinized her carefully.

Seeing that Wendy really wasn’t injured, she relaxed.

Wendy thought to herself, this is what genuine care looks like.

Not like Joshua Clarke, who just pays lip-service.

Moreover, his half-hearted consolation clearly originated from his wish to appear less selfish and heartless.

“Mom, have you been here this whole time?” Wendy asked.

“Yes, I was quite scared when they took me away, but then I discovered they’d brought me here.” Christy Xenos said, “Did you come to take me home?”

“No need to fantasize, you won’t be able to leave.” Guard A crushes Christy’s hopes with a cold tone.

Christy Xenos’ thinking was, no matter how good this place may be, it cannot compare to her own home, with Wendy keeping an eye on her.

Even if Wendy didn’t take care of her as thoroughly as the care center could.

If Wendy is her daughter, she should be responsible for taking care of her in her old age.

No one else can replace her.

Even if she herself became bedridden, Wendy would still be responsible for her every need.

“You’re illegally confining me!” Christy Xenos blurted out.

Guard B scoffed, “Where have you seen a detainee treated so well?

The cost of living here for a year can get you a house in Belfard.”

He felt that Adrian Zhekova was too benevolent.

Was it necessary to treat Christy Xenos this well?

Christy Xenos knew this place was expensive, but she didn’t know it was this extravagant.

She gasped in shock.

It seemed strange to Christy Xenos.

Adrian Zhekova would rather spend a large sum of money to keep her shut away here, yet when she’d asked Cindy Clarke for money before, he adamantly refused.

How can rich people be so peculiar?

Do they assess the value of money differently from others, or what?

What she didn’t realize was that Adrian Zhekova never cared about the cost.

The only thing he wanted was to trap Christy Xenos.

Even if he had given her the money before, Christy Xenos would still harass Cindy Clarke every day.

But now things were different.

Although living here was expensive, Christy Xenos couldn’t escape

Cindy Clarke could finally live in peace.

Zhekova wouldn’t do anything illegal, of course he wouldn’t confine her or anything

If he couldn’t do that, then he might as well let Christy Xenos live comfortably here.

Christy Xenos couldn’t leave here, but she had everything she wanted.

Even if she called the police, it wouldn’t help.

When the police asked what happened?

Adrian Zhekova would simply say he was fulfilling his duty of taking care of the elderly.

The evidence was right there, and no matter how much Christy Xenos made a fuss, nothing could be done.

“What do you mean?” Wendy asked displeased, “Adrian Zhekova promised me, he would let my mom go!”
