Chapter 268: 268: Has Sonny been drawn away?
“But my Adrian said he is already determined to marry Cindy,” Old Madam happily stated, “So, I am just waiting. Now, I can finally relax.”
Old Madam Hamilton asked teasingly, ‘Eh? What about the Wells Family? Why haven’t they said a word again?”
Old Madam York, who was now free from worries since her granddaughter already has a suitor, schemed, “Did they draw out Sonny?”
Adrian Zhekova shared a few amusing stories of Morgan with the elders, effectively clearing away their doubts, and then left the family mansion.
He had just confessed his love and hadn’t had time to get close to her before the Old Madam called him over.
Having missed the best time to get closer, he didn’t know whether Cindy would ignore him when he returned now.
Cindy was in her room, unable to sleep.
Looking at the time, it was already 22:40.
Morgan had already been fast asleep in her bedroom for quite a while.
Cindy was still up because she remembered Adrian Zhekova saying he would come back.
But she couldn’t just sit idly by because it reminded her too much of Adrian and the sight of him kissing her.
So, Cindy took out her notebook, planning for her next video.
She planned that if she advanced in the competition, she’d make a video tutorial of the cuisine she prepared during the competition.
She had prepared Japanese skewers in today’s competition.
She wanted to plan how to make a video tutorial on the preparation of Japanese skewers: from the ingredients to the arrangement of the camera.
Yet, after all this time, she just sat blankly in front of the empty page without doing anything.
She couldn’t help but remember the day Adrian filmed a video for her.
Unable to stand it any longer, Cindy tossed her notebook and pen aside.
She covered her face and decided to sit idle without doing anything.
After all, no matter what she did, she couldn’t concentrate.
At that moment, she seemed to hear noises from the front door opening.
Cindy shot up from the bed and rushed over to the bedroom door.
She stopped in front of the door, not opening it immediately.
Then she ran to the dressing table.
Her face, okay just moments ago, was now turning red again.
‘What was wrong with her!’, Cindy thought in frustration, but she had no time to delay any longer.
She opened the door, lowered her head and walked out.
In the living room, she saw Adrian Zhekova entering, having just changed his slippers.
Seeing Cindy come out, Adrian Zhekova smiled gently and explained, “At the family mansion, there was a lot I needed to explain to the elders, which is why
I came back a bit late.”
Cindy stood stiffly and tears welled up in her eyes.
The way Adrian Zhekova naturally walked in and explained to her, was like a husband who came home late and was explaining to his wife.
His words were so natural, as if they had been living together for a very long time.
Cindy never felt her home was lonely before.
Her home had her and Morgan.
The little one was always babbling non-stop, making the house lively.
So, she never felt her home was not lively enough.
But since Adrian Zhekova entered their lives, it seemed hard for her to return to the days with just her and Morgan.
Without him around, she felt there was a missing element of vitality in her home, that it was less lively..
