Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 624 - : Don’t Touch a Dog’s Temperament

Chapter 624: Chapter 624: Don’t Touch a Dog’s Temperament

Instead of calling a driver, Mrs. Lopez herself drove to the detective agency that Brenda Wright had introduced her to.

Mrs. Lopez met with the detective and directly stated the reason for her visit.

She needed something from Wendy Clarke containing DNA for identification purpose.

The detective stated, “I just found out that the time when Wendy Clarke officially started investing money into the restaurant wasn’t the time it opened.”

The detective was indeed remarkable, directly giving all the investigated information to Mrs. Lopez.

“Here are the bank records of Wendy Clarke’s transactions at that time, her bank account suddenly had 10 million more five years ago, the capital she used to open the restaurant came from this 10 million,” the detective said.

“Wendy Clarke is also quite capable, the restaurant is well-operated, so this 10 million is sufficient to cover costs.”

“Additionally, I discovered something intriguing,” the detective said with a smile.

“What?” Mrs. Lopez leaned forward, intrigued.

“She was not in Nork City for over eight months before these 10 million suddenly appeared in her account. Only after these eight months did she come back to Nork City. Just shortly after her return, Mr. Lopez brought home a child.”

What did Mrs. Lopez not understand?

Once this was stated, everything connected.

That child was most likely the one Wendy Clarke gave birth to for Mr. Lopez.

Used to exchange for the 10 million from Mr. Lopez.

Mrs. Lopez sneered, Wendy Clarke even accused her sister unjustly.

In retrospect, those excuses Wendy Clarke used against Cindy Clarke could entirely be employed to herself.

Wendy Clarke said that Cindy Clarke had an affair with Mr. Lopez when she was in college, in fact, the one who had a relationship with Mr. Lopez five years ago was probably Wendy Clarke herself.

Mrs. Lopez was unclear why Cindy Clarke would run off to Belfard.

But given Wendy Clarke’s malintent towards Cindy Clarke, it was likely that there were problems between the two sisters, causing Cindy Clarke to flee to Belfard.

Of course, these were none of Mrs. Lopez’s business.

Moreover, Cindy Clarke was now well-off having married a wealthy and influential man.

Wendy Clarke was dreaming if she thought she could harm Cindy Clarke again.

Given that, it was rather ironic.

Mrs. Lopez sneered, Wendy Clarke always wanted to become wealthy, even seeking such a shortcut, but isn’t she now completely stressed out?

But Cindy Clarke, on the other hand, had a marriage that others would envy.

However, Wendy Clarke had given Mr. Lopez a child and made a good plan. In the future, when her son inherited Mr. Lopez’s property, Wendy Clarke would also attempt to snatch it away.

Now that Mrs. Lopez had figured out Wendy Clarke’s scheme, naturally, she would not let her have her way.

Having agreed with the detective, the final test result was the only thing left to confirm everything.

Only then did Mrs. Lopez leave.

***

Belfard.

In the blink of an eye, it was already Saturday.

The new round of Cooking Competition took place as scheduled.

Because all the contestants knew about Cindy Clarke and Adrian Zhekova’s relationship.

So Adrian Zhekova directly took Cindy Clarke to the backstage, not hiding anything from anyone, showing it openly.

When Adrian Zhekova entered the backstage, all the contestants fell silent.

Even if they already knew about Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke’s relationship, after not seeing them for half a month, they had somewhat forgotten about the initial shock.

Now seeing them again, it was just too surreal.

Yannick O’Brian chuckled, “Let’s quickly get used to it, as Master Adrian may appear on every competition.”

Adrian Zhekova smiled, this feeling of being able to follow Cindy Clarke openly, it was extremely nice.

Adrian Zhekova adjusted his tie and clear his throat, giving an impression that he had something important to announce.

Billy Houston immediately arrived upon hearing this, along with Manager Zhu from the planning department and five referees.

The plan that Manager Zhu employed for this competition was conservative.

Ensuring the contestants wouldn’t get into trouble, Billy Houston would have no chance to put the blame on him.

Obviously, Billy Houston has a lot more experience in dealing with Adrian Zhekova than these young contestants.

After all, the contestants were young, had limited experience, and they hadn’t dealt with the scumbag CEO often, they couldn’t understand his temperaments.

Right after Adrian Zhekova cleared his throat, Billy Houston immediately asked, “Mr. CEO, do you have important things to announce?”

Adrian Zhekova looked at Billy Houston again, he was indeed outstanding to be in charge.

It was evident that Billy Houston had special talents.

Billy Houston, under the approving gaze of Adrian Zhekova, smiled even broadly, his eyes seemed to sparkle and the wrinkles on his face becoming pronounced.

“Yes,” Adrian Zhekova replied, “There’s an important thing to announce. Not only is it important, but it’s also a joyful event, a tin of good news for everyone at Pingla Group.” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Upon hearing this, Billy Houston immediately knew what it was. Wasn’t it the marriage between Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke?

Everyone in the Pingla Group head office knew about it.

As Adrian Zhekova took his marriage certificate to work on Monday after getting married on Saturday.

But the damnable CEO still chose not to use his private elevator and insisted on cramming in with the employee’s elevator.

Furthermore, he insisted on picking the rush hour when the elevator was the fullest.

Right from the moment Adrian Zhekova entered the Pingla Group’s door, he took out the marriage certificate, showing it to the security uncle at the door and then to the security lad next to the security uncle.

The security staff at the Pingla Group had sharp eyes, quickly congratulating Adrian Zhekova, “Mr. CEO, did you get married? Congratulations, congratulations! This is something wonderful! Have a blissful marriage!”

Adrian Zhekova walked through the door with a satisfied smile.

Upon getting to the gate where the access card is required, he had to take out his work card.

Adrian Zhekova pretended to take out a card from his pocket and swiped it across the sensor, to no response.

He swiped it again, but still to no response.

The other lanes around him were all filled with employees stepping in and out, breezing through after swiping their access card.

Only Adrian Zhekova was delayed, and as the employees passed by, they couldn’t help but glance his way to see what was the matter.

Their eyes gradually moved from Adrian Zhekova’s face to his hand, to see him holding a red booklet.

Everyone didn’t think much of it immediately, believing that Adrian Zhekova had added a cardholder to his card.

Just then, Mr. Olsen from the HR department happened to pass by.

Seeing Adrian Zhekova, he greeted him first, “Good morning, CEO.”

Adrian Zhekova arrogantly nodded his head and continued with punching his card.

Seeing this, Mr. Olsen asked, “Mr. CEO, is there a problem with your card?”

Adrian Zhekova finally had someone to pay attention to him.

He took a deep breath and replied with a puzzled look, “That shouldn’t be the case. I use the same card every day.”

As he pretended to check here and there with a bewildered look, he happened to flip the card in his hand.

Then, embossed in golden letters, the words ‘Marriage Certificate’ on the red booklet was thus revealed.
