Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 663: I Gave You a Chance

Originally, when Cindy Clarke used to take care of Morgan Zhekova alone, Peggy Lewis would help pick her up if necessary.

But now, Peggy said she wouldn’t dare to pick up Morgan alone, fearing she couldn’t protect her if something happened.

Peggy was the first person to have worries about potential villains that hadn’t shown up yet.

Cindy nodded: “That’s for the best.”

So the next day, the two of them took Morgan to the nursery.

They informed the headmaster and Teacher Linda about the situation.

The headmaster and Teacher Linda immediately promised to pay attention and fulfill their responsibilities.

In fact, without Adrian Zhekova and Cindy’s reminders, the headmaster was already very careful with the Zhekova family’s golden grandchild in their nursery.

He had already instructed everyone from teachers to security guards and cleaning housekeepers to be careful and prudent.

They mustn’t believe any strangers claiming to have any relationship with Morgan. Instead, they should report to him, and he would verify with Adrian and Cindy before allowing the child to be picked up.

They should not let Morgan leave with anyone hastily.

The headmaster told Adrian and Cindy about his previous arrangements for the whole nursery.

In fact, he had taken these precautions a long time ago.

Seeing the headmaster’s cautious and attentive attitude, Adrian was quite satisfied.

The headmaster took this opportunity to let Adrian know that he truly valued Morgan and would not be negligent in any way.

Now was the time to prove his loyalty and show Adrian how much he cared for Morgan, so he could keep her in the nursery!

The headmaster had no idea that Adrian and Cindy had decided to let Morgan finish nursery before joining Jetaime Academy in primary school.

All this time, he had been very nervous, never feeling at ease.

He was afraid that Adrian might decide to transfer Morgan at any time.

Although having the Zhekova golden grandchild in their nursery brought considerable pressure, the headmaster had strengthened security measures to ensure Morgan wouldn’t be harmed during her time there.

However, compared to the benefits Adrian brought to the nursery, these concerns were insignificant.

Adrian didn’t bully others using his investments like Arthur Woods’ family had done at their nursery.

Adrian’s requests were simple: Morgan should play happily in the nursery like other children.

Minor disputes were acceptable, and Morgan didn’t always need to be favored. Rules should apply equally to every child.

If Morgan made a mistake, she should also be criticized, and if necessary, her parents should be called to pick her up. Adrian would then educate Morgan himself.

Adrian’s only demand about his investment in the nursery was to ensure Morgan’s safety and protect her childhood.

Taking good care of Morgan, nurturing her cheerful personality, teaching her right from wrong, and ensuring she learned the necessary things were adequate measures for him.

Children at this age spent most of their time in the nursery.

While they might be well-behaved at home in front of their parents, it wasn’t always the case outside their homes.

That’s why a large part of the children’s education depended on the teachers. Additionally, Adrian also invested in the nursery’s software and hardware facilities.

He also helped the nursery participate in various exchange activities.

Practically speaking, if Jetaime Academy’s nursery could participate in an exchange activity, so could this nursery.

They were even able to have exchange and learning activities with Jetaime Academy’s nursery.

These resources were invaluable and could only be provided by Adrian’s connections and support.

Compared to Adrian, the investments Arthur Woods’ family made in the nursery seemed insignificant.

The headmaster knew that once Morgan graduated from the nursery, Adrian’s support would likely cease. However, he felt that it would be good if he could keep Morgan until she graduated successfully.

At least in the next two years, their nursery could establish their own connections through various activities and projects. Even if they didn’t have the same influence as Adrian, the possibility of future collaboration would be much greater than before.

At least they would have the qualifications to have a conversation, unlike before when others wouldn’t even listen to them.

So, the headmaster must ensure that Morgan was happy and comfortable in the nursery.

He had to make Adrian Zhekova extremely satisfied with their nursery, so he couldn’t find any faults.

The headmaster’s careful and cautious attitude was indeed commendable.

Seeing the headmaster was more reliable than he thought, Adrian felt more reassured.

After watching the headmaster and the teacher accompany Morgan into the nursery, Adrian and Cindy left together.

Wendy Clarke had given Cindy three days to make her decision, and during that time, she had visited various locations to choose a suitable restaurant site.

After checking several places, including the sizes of potential restaurants, she finally narrowed it down to four locations.

She still needed to decide on the most satisfactory, and the most suitable one among them.

Her preferred location was in a bustling area with high foot traffic and numerous popular restaurants nearby.

Although having many famous restaurants around would divert some customers, the long queues at those establishments would drive potential patrons to try their restaurant.

As long as customers had a good experience, their restaurant’s reputation would gradually grow.

However, due to its prime location surrounded by office buildings, large companies, and shopping malls, the rent was high.

Wendy also had to consider their initial costs, as the restaurant wouldn’t make money in the beginning and would require continuous investment.

On that note, she had to calculate whether she could afford such a long period of investment.

Time flew by, and the three days agreed with Cindy approached.

Wendy had yet to choose her favorite restaurant location during these three days.

She decided to address Cindy’s matter first, but until their agreed meeting time at 11:30 am, Wendy had not received Cindy’s call.

Wendy sneered, “It seems you really think you’re safe and have nothing to worry about.”

She closed the screen of her mobile phone, murmuring to herself, “Cindy, I gave you a chance. You didn’t take it, so don’t blame me.”

Having said that, Wendy took her mobile phone to find Christy Xenos and Joshua Clarke.

Christy and Joshua were drinking tea in their room.

They had played all they wanted on their previous trip to Belfard and had little interest in going out now.

As Wendy entered, she said, “I’ve found a house for us. Belfard’s housing prices are high, so let’s rent for now. After all, if we want to buy a decent house in Belfard, it will cost a lot. It’s better to invest that money in the restaurant.”
