Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 392: 392: Arriving with Heavy Steps

Cindy Clarke wondered if, before her, he hadn’t been full of energy and motivation at work.

Anyway, there were no others in the car, so she didn’t make a fuss.

Although a little shy, she still moved forward and quickly kissed Adrian Zhekova on the lips.

“Good luck with your work,” Cindy said blushing and her lips revealing a sweet smile.

“You too,” Adrian Zhekova chuckled, “find inspiration for the competition soon.”

Cindy nodded, and Adrian Zhekova said, “No need to order food for lunch, I’ll have the restaurant prepare it for you. I’ll make sure they bring out their best dishes for you.”

“Mhm.” Cindy wanted to say how nice it was to have Adrian Zhekova around.

But she didn’t know how many times she had said that already.

So, she was too embarrassed to say it again.

Cindy felt that all the happiness of her 24-year life was concentrated in the time she spent with Adrian Zhekova.

She even worried that she might be too happy, consuming all her luck prematurely.

When her luck ran out, would she still have this happiness?

As Adrian Zhekova was about to get out of the car, Cindy stopped him: “Oh, and there’s this.”

“What?” As Adrian Zhekova looked, Cindy took out a small food container from her bag.

“It’s the snack I made,” Cindy said. “It’s not very sweet. I know you don’t like sweet things, so I put less sugar.”

She had prepared lunches and snacks for Adrian Zhekova so many times.

And she understood his tastes.

Some of that, Adrian Zhekova had told her about himself.

Others, she had deduced through observation.

“Eat some when you’re hungry,” Cindy said.

“Alright,” Adrian Zhekova took it. “When did you make it?”

“I baked it while preparing breakfast this morning,” Cindy said with a smile. “I made the dough last night, so it wasn’t a bother. I just baked it in the oven this morning.”

“Still, it’s a lot of work,” Adrian Zhekova said sympathetically. “It would have been fine if you just gave me the one you baked yesterday.”

“It’s better fresh,” Cindy didn’t dare say that since she was making snacks for Morgan Zhekova anyway, it was just on the way.

Holding the food container, Adrian Zhekova felt elated.

He immediately kissed Cindy on the lips and said happily, “Cindy, you’re the best.”

“Well, I have to go,” Adrian Zhekova couldn’t stop smiling.

Cindy watched Adrian Zhekova get out of the car and waved to him.

After Adrian Zhekova entered the Company, Cleave Roland got in the car to take Cindy home.

Adrian Zhekova entered the Company and went straight to the elevator.

There was a dedicated elevator for him on one side.

On the other side, there was a staff elevator for ordinary employees.

Even the executives of Pingla shared an elevator with the other employees.

Most of the employees arrived early, and although it was not yet time for work, they had already missed the peak elevator time.

There weren’t many people left.

At that moment, the marketing department’s Manager Liam also arrived.

Seeing Adrian Zhekova from a distance, Manager Liam felt a bit apprehensive.

He didn’t really want to share the elevator with Adrian Zhekova.

It was already difficult enough to face Adrian Zhekova during meetings and such.

But with no choice, Manager Liam trudged towards the elevator with heavy steps.

“Good morning, CEO,” Manager Liam greeted Adrian Zhekova with an uneasy smile.
