Evans imdiately fixed his gaze on Samson Zhekova.

So this was the man Wendy wanted Cindy to introduce to him, undoubtedly impressive.

Indeed, the Zhekova family mbers excel like dragons among humans.

He had not t Ethan Zhekova, but had t Adrian Zhekova, and now Samson Zhekova.

Observing them, he felt the brothers were on an equal footing.

“Hello, hello,” Joshua Clarke hurriedly said.

...

“Hello,” Samson Zhekova replied politely, “Sister-in-law, I won’t disturb you any longer.

I’ll co find you for lunch later.”

Understanding Cindy’s nonverbal cue, Samson decided to maintain a distance from Joshua.

Though he rarely saw Samson, Joshua didn’t want to let go of the opportunity.

Staying with Christy Xenos and Wendy long enough had thickened his skin considerably.

Therefore, Joshua hurriedly suggested, “It’s already 11 o’clock now, lunchti is coming soon.

How about we all eat together?”

Joshua grinned a seemingly naive smile, “It’s been a while since I had a good chat with Cindy.”

Cindy felt a little uncomfortable.

During their recent conversation, Joshua had been addressing her by her full na.

In reality, back in Nork City, Joshua used to call her Cindy.

However, years of separation had led to estrangent, even between father and daughter.

Add to that, Christy Xenos and Wendy had constantly filled Joshua’s hears with negative comnts about Cindy.

These years of quiet influence had no doubt taken their toll.

While Joshua still had Cindy in his thoughts, he had clearly been influenced by Christy Xenos and Wendy.

“Should we invite mom and sis to join us?” Cindy teased.

Joshua, either pretending to not understand Cindy’s sarcasm, or truly oblivious to it, nodded, “Right, your mom and sis are just outside the school.

Let’s invite them.

You haven’t seen them for a while.”

Cindy gave Samson a aningful look.

Now she must realize why Cindy had urged him not to co.

Samson then said, “I’m sorry, I just rembered I have sothing to attend to at noon, so I won’t be able to eat with you.”

“I’ll leave first.” Samson looked apologetically at Cindy.

But Cindy felt equally apologetic to him.

Samson left quickly, and though Joshua wanted to stop him, he felt it would be inappropriate.

Cindy quickly held Joshua’s arm, “Dad, let walk you out.

I have to go back to class.

This class is very important, and I’ve fallen behind.”

If it were Christy, she would have said, isn’t seeing your parents more important than attending class?

However, Joshua could understand Cindy’s point of view on this and quickly said, “Then you should hurry back, you don’t need to walk out.”

But Cindy still walked Joshua to the school gate before returning.

Since Christy Xenos and Wendy didn’t turn up, Cindy was rather relieved she didn’t have to see them.

Joshua returned to the café where he had arranged to et Christy Xenos and Wendy.

As soon as he entered, Christy craned her neck eagerly.

She even seed disgruntled by Joshua’s slow pace.

When Joshua finally reached them, before he even sat down, Christy eagerly asked, “So, did she agree?”

Joshua shook his head, “I said everything I possibly could, but she just wouldn’t agree.”

Joshua cast a glance at Wendy and said, “Let’s go ho and talk more about it.”

“Why go ho?

It’s a waste of ti.

We’re right here at the school, we can go back and find her again,” Christy refused to head ho, unsatisfied.

Traveling here took ti; they couldn’t just return empty-handed.

“Stop looking,” Joshua recalled Cindy’s words and said to Wendy, “Wendy, I feel Cindy made a pertinent point.

Since you’re already in a relationship with Ethan Zhekova, you should cherish it.

Otherwise, if you pursue Samson, you’ll have to start afresh.”

“Furthermore, Samson and Ethan are brothers.

It’s not appropriate for you to have relationships with both brothers.

Would Samson really want to pursue his brother’s girlfriend?”

Even to Joshua, the very thought of it was unsavory.

Samson is an impressive individual, and he isn’t head over heels in love with Wendy.

Why would he choose her over others?

Cindy didn’t ntion this, but she did bring up Lyke Zhekova.

Joshua realized Cindy’s words also applied to Samson.

If it was his son, who began dating his nephew’s ex-girlfriend, he wouldn’t be pleased either.

Let alone if it concerned him personally, then he would be even less pleased.

Thinking about what Cindy said, the real relationship between Wendy and Ethan.

Even though Joshua disagreed vehently with Cindy, he also harbored doubts.

Without Cindy around, Joshua tentatively inquired, “Speaking of which, you and Ethan have been together quite a while.

When will you bring him ho?”

“Our ho may not match up to the Zhekova’s, but then few hos do.

Yet, our ho is far from shaful.

The house is good, it’s in an upscale district, it’s large enough to entertain guests, it’s not shaful in the least.” Before Joshua finished speaking, Wendy’s face changed.

“Did Cindy tell you anything?” Wendy asked suspiciously.

At the sa ti, she also wondered, how could Cindy know so much about her and Ethan’s relationship?

Could it be that Cindy has been secretly investigating her?

“No, of course not,” Joshua quickly denied, misleading her, “I just initially complained to her for introducing her friend to Lyke without considering you.

She responded that since you’re her sister and Lyke is her uncle, it would ss up the seniority, making it unseemly.

I just realized then, Ethan and Samson are brothers.

Your involvent with both isn’t good.”

Joshua’s words dispelled Wendy’s doubts.

“Let’s talk about it later, I still need to observe him more,” Wendy said, “He wanted to co ho with to et you, but I refused.

Bringing him ho would be acknowledging our relationship status.

If I want to pursue soone else later, it wouldn’t be convenient.”

“So, dad, you don’t need to worry.

Ethan and I are just friends in public, even if I get together with Samson, it’s fine,” Wendy assured.

“Exactly!” Christy eagerly agreed.

Joshua, hearing Wendy speak so confidently, grew even more suspicious.

“Cindy disagrees, let’s think of another way,” Joshua suggested.

“Since Samson Zhekova is the headmaster of Pingla, he should be at school today, right?” Christy suggested, “Why don’t we pretend to bump into him, get to know him?”

“Since Cindy doesn’t want to make the introduction, we don’t need to rely on her,” Christy continued, “We can make our own acquaintance.”

“That doesn’t seem too good…” Joshua hesitated.

However, because his refuting wasn’t strong enough, or perhaps because he thought Christy’s idea was quite good, he left undecided.
