Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: Condition_1 Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: Condition_1 “The words of Adrian Zhekova really hit Wendy Clarke’s vulnerable spots.
Between Ethan Zhekova and Christy Xenos, Wendy would definitely choose Christy Xenos.
Her relationship with Ethan Zhekova was just a mutual cooperation and use.
Ethan Zhekova hadn’t given her any promises.
She certainly couldn’t sacrifice Christy Xenos for Ethan Zhekova.
But if Ethan Zhekova really made her a promise.
Such as, marrying her, allowing her to enter the Zhekova Family.
...
As long as there were stable promises that would allow Wendy to feel secure.
Wendy might truly be able to sacrifice Christy Xenos.
Unfortunately, Ethan Zhekova didn’t ever make such promises to her.
He even completely disregarded her.
Went so far as to physically assault her.
Just like the last ti when she was tricked by Cindy Clarke.
When Ethan Zhekova found out that she still wanted to go after Samson Zhekova, he physically beat her up.
Although he didn’t hit her again after that incident, Wendy still vividly rembered it.
A man who hits a woman is worthless.
This sort of conduct, there is only a difference between zero tis and countless tis.
Back to the point, if Ethan Zhekova was willing to marry her.
She might risk a few dangers and agree.
ƝοѵǤο.сᴑ
But since Ethan Zhekova hasn’t, Wendy held a grudge.
Now they still had a working relationship and Ethan Zhekova was truly not soone she could handle.
But as soon as she had the opportunity, Wendy would definitely take her revenge.
She wouldn’t swallow that beating for free!
So looking at it all, who to protect and who to give up, isn’t it very obvious?
Of course, the only choice is between Ethan Zhekova and Christy Xenos.
Wendy would absolutely not sacrifice herself.
She didn’t have that level of readiness.
And what Adrian Zhekova said was correct.
Even if she had a collaboration with Ethan Zhekova.
For this issue, Ethan Zhekova was evidently the one who suggested it.
But as soon as a mistake was made, Ethan Zhekova flatly denied responsibility.
Just as Adrian Zhekova said, if they continued to cooperate and sothing else went wrong, she would definitely take responsibility pressured by Ethan Zhekova.
Plainly speaking, their relationship, what cooperation.
It was just to make it sound better.
In the eyes of Ethan Zhekova, she was just a pawn that Ethan Zhekova manipulated.
Ethan Zhekova didn’t have to do anything, he just needed to give orders, and she would do the rest.
So with that, once anyone got hold of any evidences.
She would be the one scapegoated by Ethan Zhekova.
All these signs were hinting her that choosing to expose Ethan Zhekova, in order to protect Christy Xenos would be the wiser choice.
Though the last thing that Adrian Zhekova said tempted her greatly.
Cooperating with Adrian Zhekova is much better than with Ethan Zhekova.
Yet Wendy wasn’t utterly foolish and knew that Adrian Zhekova would never cooperate with her.
Adrian Zhekova didn’t need to cooperate with her.
Not to ntion, Cindy Clarke was still there.
So for Adrian Zhekova’s last proposal, despite Wendy being reluctant and tempted.
She still managed to restrain herself and not to trust him.
She didn’t have to think about it, everybody in the Zhekova Family, apart from Ethan Zhekova, who was an exception, had a great relationship and were very united.
If she really wanted to sell out Christy Xenos, how could Adrian Zhekova possibly cooperate with her?
“Do the words you just said still count?” Wendy asked.
“Which ones?” Adrian Zhekova asked, raising an eyebrow.
“You said, if I told you who the mastermind is, then you would let and my mom off the hook.
My mom could regain her freedom, my restaurant in Belfard could continue, and you wouldn’t interfere anymore.” Wendy asked.
“That’s correct.” Adrian Zhekova nodded.
“I have one more condition.” Wendy added.
Adrian Zhekova raised an eyebrow and taunted, “Go ahead.”
“If I tell you, can you ensure the person won’t know it’s who told you?” Wendy asked.
“No.” Adrian Zhekova replied, “What I can assure is, I won’t tell him it was you who told .”
On this matter, Adrian Zhekova didn’t choose to lie to Wendy.
Indeed, he won’t tell Ethan Zhekova.
He knew it was Ethan Zhekova’s doing, and what he needed now was evidence.
He was currently recording, and as long as Wendy clearly explained everything, he could use the recording to thoroughly criminalize Ethan Zhekova.
He could choose not to let Ethan Zhekova listen to the recording, just listening themselves would be enough.
However, even if he didn’t say it, eventually Ethan Zhekova would find out that it was Wendy who exposed him.
Wendy shivered a bit as she didn’t count on Adrian Zhekova to keep her secret.
Adrian Zhekova probably ca to question her this ti, because he was ready to make a move against Ethan Zhekova.
It looked like Adrian Zhekova needed evidence.
At this mont, Wendy, not knowing which switch was turned on in her mind, thought more clearly than before.
Thinking things over, she even managed to guess most of it correctly.
“If you can’t guarantee that the other person won’t know it was , at the very least, you must guarantee to ensure my safety.” Wendy said, “If you can guarantee my safety, I’ll tell you who it is.”
Adrian Zhekova chuckled, “You chose to cooperate with an idiot, and even beca his pawn.
You actively provoked Cindy Clarke and tried to harm her.
You are responsible for these things, you are not innocent, so why should I protect you?”
“If you don’t promise to protect , I won’t say.” Wendy said.
Adrian Zhekova remained silent for a while, then said, “You might have misunderstood my point.”
Wendy lit up, thinking that Adrian Zhekova was backing down.
Because she didn’t speak, he had to admit defeat.
Unexpectedly, she could make Adrian Zhekova admit defeat.
Wendy felt a bit self-satisfied.
It seed that Adrian Zhekova was not that formidable.
Everyone hyped him up so much.
But Wendy didn’t have the chance to feel satisfied for long when she heard Adrian Zhekova say, “I ca to you for confirmation, just to make it quick and save so ti.”
“But even without you, he would take action later.
As long as he dared to make a move, I’d be able to gather evidence.” Adrian Zhekova said, “So it doesn’t matter that much whether you are involved or not.”
“Of course, if I could reach the evidence earlier, I’d be happier.
But if I can’t, it’s not a big deal.”
“The condition I offered you is to let Christy Xenos go.” Adrian Zhekova continued, “If you want Christy Xenos to be free, then tell the truth.
If you don’t want to, then you won’t be freed either.”
At this point, Adrian Zhekova lightly swung a finger.
Perry Gustav, along another player, walked towards Wendy from both sides.
Wendy imdiately grew tense.
Because earlier, when Christy Xenos was taken away, it was the sa way.
Seeing Perry Gustav about to untie her and take her away, Wendy quickly said, “Wait!”
Perry Gustav and the other player looked at Adrian Zhekova and stopped.
Wendy imdiately said, “Let be sure, if I say it, you won’t trouble my restaurant anymore, and let my mom go?”
Adrian Zhekova was surprised that Wendy prioritized her restaurant over Christy Xenos.
Usually, in a situation like this, they would place what they care most about first.
It seems that in Wendy’s eyes, Christy Xenos was even less important than her own restaurant.
