Chapter 1174: Chapter 1174: Won’t Act Like a Monster_1 Chapter 1174: Chapter 1174: Won’t Act Like a Monster_1 “She thinks I was unfair to her and holds a grudge against .
Fine,” Christy Xenos nodded.
“But you’ve always been good to her.”
“Look at how she treats you now.
We’ve been here for so long and have settled down, but she doesn’t even take the ti to visit us.
Not to ntion you,” Christy continued.
“When she was with Adrian Zhekova, with all his money, she didn’t think to care for you.
Instead, she even asked you for money.”
“I’m just glad that I didn’t spoil her.
...
If I had, she would have killed with her ingratitude by now.
She’s nothing more than an ungrateful parasite!” Christy Xenos vented about Cindy Clarke’s ungrateful actions.
“Look how much you’ve done for her since she was a kid.
Even her cooking skills were taught by you.
ɴοѵǤ0.сο
Without you, she wouldn’t be so successful now, shining in the Cooking Competition,” Christy Xenos sneered.
“And what did she give you in return?
Did she ever thank you?
Even if she doesn’t support , did she ever offer to support you, to give you alimony?” Christy Xenos countered.
Joshua Clarke was left speechless.
Christy Xenos continued, “Compare her to Wendy Clarke, whom you didn’t dote on as much growing up.
Look at how well she treats you now.
It’s Wendy who is providing for you.”
“Now that you have the opportunity, don’t you want to think more about Wendy?” Christy Xenos asked, “In the future, we’ll have to rely on Wendy to take care of us.”
“Cindy Clarke is definitely not reliable.
If we’re relying on Wendy for our old age, shouldn’t we help her more now?
How could you bear to put all the pressure on her alone in the future?”
“Oh, when there’s a good opportunity, you think of Cindy Clarke, but when you need care, you think of Wendy.
Aren’t you being unfair?” Christy Xenos pointed out.
“I didn’t think that way…” Joshua Clarke weakly retorted.
Christy Xenos insisted, “I advise you, from now on, you should only consider Wendy as your daughter.
Forget about Cindy Clarke.
If you help Wendy, let her live a good life, it will be easier for her when she has to take care of us in the future.
What could be wrong with that?”
Joshua Clarke didn’t respond.
Seeing Joshua Clarke still hesitant and unwilling to speak.
Christy Xenos pressed, “So you’re not willing to go?”
“You’re not willing to go, huh!
Even if you’re not thinking about having Wendy take care of you in the future, consider all the years Wendy has been supporting you.
She provides you with a big house, lets you spend money without any pressure, you should think of this as a way to repay her.
You should help her.”
“If not for Wendy, could you have the life you’re living now?” Christy Xenos questioned.
“Yes, you raised Wendy.
But at what cost?
The small two-room flat we own, her simple attire, which she wears for years on end.
The total cost of raising Wendy, even including her two years of studying abroad, Wendy has already repaid us.”
“Not to ntion, when she studied abroad, she did so as an exchange student, so the tuition wasn’t as expensive as regular overseas students,” Christy Xenos noted.
“Adding all these costs together, Wendy has already returned what we spent on her.”
“Enough,” Joshua Clarke said, feeling uncomfortable from Christy Xenos’s words, while also realizing he indeed hadn’t done much for them.
“I’ll go and speak with Cindy Clarke,” Joshua declared, “But, approaching her now isn’t easy.
We can’t even get near her house.”
They couldn’t get anywhere near either Adrian Zhekova’s place or the family mansion.
Wendy and imdiately said, “I’ve already figured it out.
Cindy Clarke is studying at Pingla Academy.
She leaves early in the morning every day for classes.
You can’t approach her residence, but you can go to her school.”
“They can’t possibly stop people from entering the school.” Wendy argued, “Dad, if you go to see her, will she not see you?”
Joshua Clarke nodded in agreent, “I’ll go tomorrow then.”
“What are you waiting for tomorrow?” Christy Xenos quickly interjected, “This matter shouldn’t be delayed.
What if Samson Zhekova has a girlfriend by then?”
“You should go now,” Christy suggested.
It was morning after all, and still very early.
Christy glanced at the ti.
It was only half-past eight.
“Let’s go to that Pingla Academy now,” Christy decided, “Today, we’ll make everything clear with Cindy Clarke so she can get this handled as soon as possible.”
From her tone, it seed like she was certain that if Joshua Clarke proposed it, Cindy Clarke would definitely listen.
“We are going?” Joshua Clarke asked, “Are you also planning to go with ?”
“It’s not just Mom,” Wendy said, “I’m also going with you.
But we won’t appear in front of her.
We’ll watch from a distance, so we can keep up with any situation and know exactly what’s going on.”
Joshua Clarke had no objections, and the three of them set off together.
While Cindy Clarke was in class, the security guard appeared at the school entrance.
“I’m sorry to interrupt,” the security guard had to interrupt the class and hinted towards the classroom, “Could Cindy Clarke please step forward?”
“I’m here,” Cindy Clarke called out.
“Your father is waiting at the school entrance and he has sothing very important to tell you,” the guard inford her.
At that, Cindy Clarke’s heart sank.
Giving that Joshua Clarke knew she was here, she figured this must have sothing to do with Wendy.
The only source of news Joshua Clarke could have had was Wendy Clarke.
If it had to do with Wendy, Cindy didn’t want to see him.
Cindy Clarke initially disconnected the fla and stepped out to the doorway, telling the security guard, “I’m sorry, but could you please tell him that I’m busy?”
“Well…” the security guard hesitated, “He said that you might not want to see him, so he told that if you don’t co, he’ll wait at the entrance.”
“He also said…
your sister and mother are not with him,” the security guard added.
Cindy pressed her lips together, surprised that Joshua Clarke would even resort to coercion.
“I am aware, and I’ll be right there.
Thank you very much,” Cindy Clarke said, having no other choice.
This ti, Cindy reentered the class, excused herself from the teacher, and followed the security guard to the entrance.
Seeing the entrance, Cindy recognised Joshua Clarke standing outside the school gate.
Looking far into the school.
Although she couldn’t see Christy Xenos and Wendy with him, Cindy knew in her heart that Joshua Clarke’s arrival here was definitely related to them.
Even though Joshua Clarke was weak-willed and made disappointing decisions.
He was now standing up for himself.
His actions must have been instigated by Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke.
Cindy Clarke thanked the security guard once more before approaching Joshua Clarke.
“Dad,” Cindy called him, her gaze sweeping over the surroundings without hiding anything.
Joshua Clarke looked a bit uncomfortable and guilty as he ntioned, “Your mother and sister did not co with .”
Cindy only laughed, not buying it, but she didn’t agitate Joshua Clarke over it.
