Chapter 650: Awe-inspiring at First Sight
“Aren’t you Cindy’s sister? You don’t even know this?”
Wendy almost laughed out of anger, but still said weakly, “I just moved to Belfard. You were born and raised here. If you don’t know, how could I possibly know? Cindy… she never told .”
If only she’d known, she would have co up with a different plan.
Now, with Adrian Zhekova’s ergence, Cindy has transford into his wife, which completely disrupted her plans.
Wendy glanced at Adrian, her heart filled with envy.
Why couldn’t this kind of good fortune fall on her?
Why did it benefit Cindy!
Cindy had always been lucky since childhood, gifted, and trained by Joshua Clarke as his successor.
Even when she sched against her, to the point of getting married with a child to Adrian Zhekova.
How could Adrian have thought of this?
With so many won at his disposal, why did he set his sights on Cindy?
Cindy had nothing remarkable about her, yet she had a child, and the Zhekova family still agreed to it.
Wendy clenched her teeth in anger, only to hear Edward Lopez say, “Wendy, aren’t you Cindy’s sister? You can talk to her, right? Don’t let her hold it against anymore.”
Seeing that he couldn’t reason with Adrian, Edward sought out Cindy, “Cindy, I was a fool, I didn’t know any better. Just treat like a fool, my head isn’t working right, my eyes aren’t working right either, don’t hold it against , I’m just a nobody.”
At this mont, Wendy’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Before this, Edward had always been an elusive figure in her mind.
She had worked so hard to pique Edward’s interest, wishing to truly engage with him.
Even if she couldn’t marry him in the end, at least she could have a long-lasting and stable relationship.
Her demands were already this low, and to her, Edward already seed like an impressive person.
However, she didn’t expect Edward to appear so submissive in front of Adrian, begging desperately, even wanting to kneel down, without dignity, being a nobody.
Let alone being high and mighty or invigorated, now he probably can’t even keep up with a random passerby on the street.
Wendy felt a sudden disgust.
The man she had her eyes on turned out to be such a disgrace in the face of real power.
Edward was nothing more than a paper tiger; perhaps he seed impressive to ordinary people, but in reality, he was nothing.
Cindy wasn’t experiencing soone asking for her help for the first ti because Adrian stood up for her. She had grown accustod to it.
So, to Edward’s plea, Cindy remained very calm, without a trace of surprise or panic, even appearing cold and heartless.
“Do you think I’m an easily softened woman with no brains, so if you beg a couple of tis, I’ll forgive you?”
“If my husband wasn’t Adrian Zhekova, and if I rejected you too, you might not be satisfied and would do even more to harm , or even use so dirty tricks?”
“Because in your opinion, I have no background or abilities, and it’s an honor for to be noticed by you and yet I’m so ungrateful. At that point, would begging you do any good? You flaunt your wealth and power, disregarding people’s feelings. I was just bullied by you, is begging you any use?”
“Now it’s just that our situation has changed. Since it’s useless to beg you, it’s also useless to beg . My husband is sticking up for , so why should I beg for you in return?”
Adrian was extrely satisfied, even his deanor beca more upright.
Cindy was really good at this; as long as it was sothing he would do for her, regardless of the reason, whether it was for revenge or sothing else, Cindy would support him unconditionally.
She actually had every right to decide whether or not she wanted Adrian to do this, but as long as he went ahead, Cindy never interfered.
He felt greatly honored, and it truly made their Zhekova family proud.
Little Cindy was really in sync with him.
Edward turned to Wendy and urged her, “Wendy, aren’t you going to say sothing to your sister? Are you just going to watch suffer like this?”
If Adrian intervened, it might not bankrupt their family.
But everyone knows that Adrian is dissatisfied with their family, and if he took action against them, other people would weigh their options and reconsider before dealing with them. This invisible loss is incalculable.
He made a huge ss!
Now Edward is in deep trouble, unsure of how to explain the situation to his family mbers when he returns.
How would Wendy know the extent of her grievances with Cindy?
It seems that Cindy took her for an enemy a long ti ago.
Initially, she wasn’t too worried, thinking that her sches wouldn’t be a problem against Cindy’s retaliation.
At that ti, wouldn’t she have treated Cindy’s couple with warmth and affection?
But now, after witnessing Adrian, how could Wendy dare to think like this?
Edward was still counting on her to help, but she can’t even save herself now.
However, even though Edward appeared ek in front of Adrian, he was still soone she couldn’t afford to provoke.
So Wendy had no choice but to make a symbolic gesture to Cindy, “Cindy, show so rcy where you can. Nothing damaging happened, right? Why not just let it go?”
“I think Young Master Lopez…Edward realized by now that he will never ss with you again.”
anwhile, Wendy was also shocked by Adrian’s power.
Everyone in the nation knew about the Big Eight families, and Wendy was no exception.
However, since she had never had any contact with them, their existence was too distant, so Wendy hadn’t had a very concrete understanding of them.
Until tonight, when she saw Edward’s fear of Adrian, their attitudes differed greatly.
Wendy was astonished; did the people of the Big Eight families really have such high status?
When they make an appearance, they imdiately instill awe.
With just a sentence, they can make others kneel.
Wendy was dumbfounded, as if she had discovered a new world.
The targets she originally had in her heart had quietly shifted.
Cindy didn’t care about Edward at all, letting go of Adrian’s hand, “I’ve collected all my rewards here. There’s nothing else to do here, so why don’t we head back?”
If it hadn’t been for these setbacks, Cindy would have been happy to give the Belfard organizers the courtesy to stay from beginning to end.
But now that things have gone this way, there’s no point in staying any longer, she just gave Edward and Wendy an opportunity to bother her further.
As for Adrian, he was too lazy to deal with the people there anymore. Seeing the guests eager and ready to move, Adrian felt a headache coming on.
So he nodded, “Alright, let’s go.”
