Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 515: Chapter 515: All are Adrian Zhekova’s Plots

“It was Adrian who gave me the feeling of home. Even before we got married, from my first formal visit, you all asked me to call you grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, treating me like a family member. I didn’t feel any alienation or rejection. You naturally let me blend in,” Cindy said warmly.

“Unintentionally, I’ve started viewing myself as part of the Zhekova family.” Cindy blushed shrunk her head, her ears turning red.

In a regular family, these words would carry no weight.

But this is the Zhekova Family!

She couldn’t help but worry, would her thoughts give the Zhekova elders the impression she’s deliberately seeking favor, sticking to the Zhekova family without shame?

The Old Madam, reading her mind, smiled and said, “When we asked you to address us like this, we intended to accept you as part of the family. How could you consider this as shameless? It’s respect. If you felt otherwise, you would have misunderstood our intentions.”

“Exactly,” Victoria Wheeler followed up, “Don’t mimic those insincere people. We’ve accepted you as family, and you should too.”

“How could she be an outsider after having a child?” Morgan Zhekova commented.

Everyone:

If anyone had a child, it should be you, Morgan!

Cindy’s heart was filled with warmth, so soft that it even brought her close to tears.

Her eyes filled with warmth and emotion.

She even felt an urge to rush into Old Madam and Victoria Wheeler’s embraces.

How could a family be this warm?

But after hearing Morgan’s words, she broke into laughter, shaking off her emotional moment.

At this point, Aunt Evans brought out dish after dish, saying, “Old Master, Old Madam, Sir, Madam, Young Master and Madam, Morgan, dinner is served.”

Subsequently, everyone began to enjoy their dinner.

Morgan, even though he had some snacks on the way, didn’t overeat on the Old Madam’s lookout.

She just let him nibble a little so that he wouldn’t be too hungry before the meal when they got back home.

By this point, Morgan had pretty much digested everything and once again had a good appetite for dinner.

The Old Madam specially arranged for Morgan to sit between her and the Old Master.

Although Morgan required no help when it comes to eating, he could do it quite well by himself.

Seeing how much the elders loved him, Cindy thought of Adrian’s suggestion.

Strangely enough, it seemed that their thoughts were in perfect sync.

Just as Cindy started thinking about it, Adrian next to her said, “Morgan, how about staying here with Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother once in a while?”

Morgan looked up, puzzled, “Huh?”

The great grandparents were surprised and delighted, looking expectantly at Adrian.

Adrian then said, “Considering how much you two love having Morgan around, bringing him here for a few hours each week might not be enough.”

“You might not get enough of him before it’s time for Morgan to leave,” Adrian said.

Upon hearing that, Morgan felt there seemed to be some truth to it.

“So, we thought that if you two are willing and Morgan is too, then maybe he could come and stay for a night or two during the weekends. He can play here and keep you two company,” Adrian suggested.

“However, it won’t necessarily be a fixed schedule every week. Like if we took Morgan out for a trip, he might not be able to come and stay,” Adrian added.

Nevertheless, the great grandparents were already ecstatic.

The Old Madam immediately nodded, “Of course!”

“Morgan, what do you think?” Despite her excitement, she still believed in respecting Morgan’s opinion.

Having lived together with Cindy for so many years, to him, Cindy would always come first. No one could replace her.

Morgan must have never been separated from Cindy.

Even if they were always at their own home, Morgan might miss her if she isn’t around.

The Old Madam was worried that Morgan might struggle to adjust.

“I can!” Morgan happily nodded without any hesitation, “I want to also stay with Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother.”

Looking at the grey-haired elders, Morgan was well aware of the concept of life and death.

“I like Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother.” Morgan said, “I want to play with you.”

“Alright, very well!” The Old Master was so delighted he rubbed his hands in anticipation.

The Old Madam frowned, thinking the Old Master’s excited mannerisms were somewhat off-putting.

She couldn’t bear to see him behaving like that.

Then she heard Adrian say, “In that case, Morgan should stay here tonight.”

Morgan, who seemed carefree, excitedly called out between his bites of ribs, “Alright, alright!”

“Staying tonight?” Old Madam was surprised. Just like that?

Adrian smiled and teased, “Grandmother, are you not willing to keep Morgan?”

Morgan immediately paused his chewing, staring wide-eyed at the Old Madam with his oily mouth.

Did she just humor him?

Did she not want him to stay?

Wasn’t he generally loved by everyone?

Morgan was upset.

“Stop talking nonsense!” Old Madam complained.

In front of a child no less!

What a load of nonsense from Adrian!

“How could I not want Morgan to stay?” Old Madam said, bending down to kiss Morgan’s rosy cheeks, “Of course I want him here. I wouldn’t mind if he stayed every day.”

Morgan nodded in relief.

Apparently, he was still as adorable as ever.

“I am worried if it would be hard for Cindy to adjust.” The Old Madam explained.

Old Madam turned to Cindy, “Cindy, will you miss Morgan? This would be the first time you two are separated since Morgan grew up. I’m afraid it might be too sudden for you. When you return home and it’s suddenly quieter without Morgan around, you may feel uncomfortable.”

“Why don’t you stay tonight too? Take it slow. It will be good for Morgan too. Even though he agreed to stay enthusiastically now, he may miss you when he can’t find you later,” Old Madam said with a smile.

On thinking it over, Cindy agreed.

She had indeed never been separated from Morgan before.

Right now with Morgan in front of her, she might not feel it.

But when she goes home and finds the place suddenly quiet without Morgan, it would be too late to miss him.

Just as Cindy was about to agree, Adrian cut her off: “No need!”

Are you kidding me? After all the hard work to convince Cindy to let Morgan stay for a night, they could finally have some alone time.

But if they both stayed at the old mansion, how would they find their alone time?

“We have to get used to it anyway,” Adrian said, “Moreover, I’ve got Cindy’s company. ”

“And, Morgan may not necessarily miss Cindy.” This kid has strong adaptability, “If he really misses her, we’ll come by then.”

“We have to let Morgan get used to it. After all, a boy has to leave home eventually,” Adrian added.

The Old Madam couldn’t help but suspect that this was all part of Adrian’s scheme.

What does it mean ‘watch if they miss Morgan’?
