Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Going to the Family Mansion
“Moreover, didn’t Cindy marry into the Zhekova Family? We don’t need to spend our own money on a house. When the time comes, we’ll ask Cindy for money. Can Cindy really leave us without a place to stay when we come to Belfard? That would be too disgraceful and something to be laughed at. If she doesn’t want to lose face, she has to arrange everything for us and save us a lot of money.”
Christy Xenos nodded, “Exactly, we don’t need to buy a house ourselves. Before, Cindy said she had no money, so we didn’t argue with her. But now she’s the daughter-in-law of the Zhekova Family, and she has so much money that she can’t spend it all for generations. Can’t she spare a little money to buy us a house? If she doesn’t buy it, she’s being unfilial!”
After finishing, Christy asked Joshua Clarke for his opinion: “Don’t you think so? We traveled all the way to Belfard, and she didn’t even arrange a place for us. We’ve been here for several days, and she knows that, but do you see her coming to find us while we’re staying in the hotel?”
Joshua hesitated: “Maybe she doesn’t know where we’re staying? Wendy, have you told her?”
“Enough!” Christy immediately retorted, “Even if we didn’t tell her, how could she not know? Last time we came to Belfard, we didn’t even have her contact information, but she managed to find us quite easily. Now that she’s the Young Madam of the Zhekova Family, wouldn’t it be easy for her to find out where we’re staying?”
“It all depends on whether she has the heart to do so! She simply doesn’t care about us and doesn’t want to see us. We’ve been in Belfard for a while now. Has she ever visited us? Has she called to ask about us? Even just to say hello would have been something,” Christy said.
“Well, it may be difficult for her. Didn’t Wendy tell us the other day? Adrian Zhekova himself said that the Zhekova Family’s attitude is to not let her have any connection with us. In this case, it’s probably difficult for her to buy us a house,” Joshua spoke up for Cindy.
“What’s so difficult about it? A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Since she married into the Zhekova Family, how could Adrian not give her money? He must give her some pocket money every month, otherwise, the prestigious Young Madam of the Zhekova Family would look poor and be laughed at!”
“As the Young Madam of the Zhekova Family, her allowance must be generous. I’ve heard that a wealthy wife on Harbour Island has a monthly allowance of 2 million. As the daughter-in-law of the Zhekova family, can the money she gets per month be less than that of a wealthy family on a small island? I don’t believe it!”
“Not to mention taking a little bit from the Zhekova Family’s wealth, even if she took a little from her own pocket money, it would be enough for us to buy a big house in Belfard. So for Cindy to buy us a house, she doesn’t need to beg the Zhekova Family and it won’t be difficult!”
“It all depends on whether she has the heart to do so for us.”
Joshua was silent for a while, then said: “Cindy is a filial child. Since it’s just a small amount for her without asking the Zhekova Family, she won’t be stingy. After all, we’re her family. Can she really ignore us while living in Belfard?”
Christy didn’t share Joshua’s beautiful thoughts, she just sneered: “I hope so. You better not put too much hope in Cindy. Has your little daughter ever disappointed you?”
Joshua didn’t say anything because he couldn’t argue.
Christy stopped talking to him and turned to Wendy, “By the way, is the time you gave Cindy up?”
Wendy nodded: “I came here because of this. We originally agreed that she would reply to me by 11:30 today, but it’s already 12 o’clock, and she hasn’t contacted me.”
Christy spat out in anger, saying, “Cindy is just playing with us!”
She also turned back to Joshua to complain: “Look at Cindy’s ingratitude. We clearly told her all this out of kindness, to remind her and let her be on guard. It’s also to let her know that her family members are on her side, willing to help her and keep her secret, but she’s still ungrateful!”
Joshua was silent for a while and then asked: “Cindy doesn’t trust us?”
Christy sneered: “She doesn’t even trust her own family. Wendy, what should we do then?”
“If we can’t persuade Cindy, let’s just go directly to the Zhekova Family Mansion and talk to the elder couple. We’re not going there to expose Cindy’s baby’s identity and ruin her marriage. Instead, we just want to discuss the matter of the dowry they should offer for marrying Cindy,” Wendy said.
“We should also let the Zhekova Family know that we value Cindy highly. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have come to discuss wedding customs with them. At the same time, let the Zhekova Family know that Cindy has a family in her hometown. We’ve already come to Belfard. Cindy isn’t someone they can treat casually.”
“Cindy should finally realize our sincerity toward her!”
Surprisingly, Joshua was convinced by Wendy’s ridiculous reasoning and felt that she made perfect sense.
He nodded in agreement, “When shall we go?”
It seemed that he was eager to go to the Zhekova Family Mansion to talk to the elder couple as if that would prove their loving intentions toward Cindy.
Wendy smiled with satisfaction: “Let’s go now.”
“So soon?” Joshua didn’t expect Wendy’s decision to be so quick.
Wendy then said: “It’s better to go earlier so we can feel at ease sooner. Besides, I’ve already found out where the Zhekova Family Mansion is. With the influence of the Zhekova Family, they couldn’t possibly be unaware that we have come to Belfard. What’s more, Adrian saw me with his own eyes that day. Since they all know that we have arrived and haven’t visited them yet, wouldn’t they think our family is impolite?”
“It’s better to visit them as soon as possible and show our courtesy,” Wendy said.
“You’re right,” Christy nodded. As long as Wendy said it, no matter what it was, Christy always thought it made perfect sense.
So Christy hurriedly rummaged through her clothes. She didn’t bring much with her when she came to Belfard because she planned to buy clothes here.
After all, Nork City was a small city, and Christy thought the styles and brands of clothes there wouldn’t be as diverse as in Belfard.
So when she came to Belfard and had nothing else to do, she went shopping in the mall and bought quite a few expensive clothes.
As for whether they were good-looking or not, that’s another story.
Ever since the Clarke Family had money, Christy had been shopping based solely on price.
As long as it was expensive, it was good. Of course, there were some issues with her aesthetic taste.
Being expensive doesn’t necessarily mean looking good.
Christy’s lack of taste was probably deeply ingrained in her.
Christy pulled out a fur coat, a cashmere sweater, wool trousers, and a pair of knee-high boots.
When Wendy saw the outfit that Christy had chosen for her, the corners of her eyes twitched.
However, she couldn’t say anything since Christy always believed that her taste was good.
