Chapter 668: The Zhekova Family’s Rules Are So Huge
“Let them in,” the Old Master said, “to be honest, I’m really looking forward to meeting these three.”.
The whole family was shameless, and the Old Master really wanted to scold them in person.
Old Madam also wanted to meet them.
These three were the ones who mistreated Cindy Clarke.
“You don’t have to meet them personally,” Old Madam said.
Butler Howard didn’t personally meet everyone who came in.
Except for Cindy Clarke’s first visit, he went to meet her personally.
It totally represented the attitude of the elderly couple, who warmly welcomed Cindy.
Also, during the New Year, people from the Big Eight families came to pay their respects.
Butler Howard would come out personally.
As for normal times, when Clifford Wells and others came to see Adrian Zhekova, they would naturally not come to the family mansion.
Butler Howard personally came out to greet them, showing his respect for the guests.
After all, in the family mansion, there were only the elderly couple and their respective subordinates.
How could they ask the elderly to personally come out to meet the guests?
Butler Howard was, apart from the elderly couple, the highest-ranking and most senior person in the mansion.
That’s how he thought about it, too.
He didn’t want to greet these shameless three people.
To give them face!
Butler Howard first opened the walkie-talkie: “May I know who this is?”
Wendy Clarke and Joshua Clarke couldn’t say anything nervously.
They didn’t know if it was an illusion or not, but they both felt that Butler Howard’s voice had an imposing presence.
It was like the very distinguished butler from a big, noble family.
Wendy Clarke tugged on Christy Xenos’ arm, and Christy said: “We are Cindy Clarke’s family members, and I am her sister.”
Wendy Clarke moved aside and pulled Christy Xenos and Joshua Clarke over, “These are my parents.”
Christy Xenos hurriedly added: “Cindy Clarke’s parents, too.”
Butler Howard didn’t change his expression, but of course, Wendy Clarke and the others couldn’t see his face.
“We came uninvited,” Wendy Clarke said, “simply because Cindy Clarke married Mr. Zhekova, and we, as her family members, came to visit the elderly couple.”
Through the walkie-talkie, Butler Howard was silent for a while.
This brief silence made the three of them even more nervous.
The three of them dared not breathe heavily, involuntarily anxious.
After a while, they heard Butler Howard’s voice: “Please wait.”
After that, there was no more reply.
The three of them were anxious as they waited by the door, and Christy Xenos saw that there was no sound from the walkie-talkie anymore, indicating that the other party had probably turned it off.
She whispered to Wendy Clarke: “Is the Zhekova family this strict?”
Wendy Clarke shook her head and didn’t reply.
Christy Xenos then said: “Anyway, it’s too impolite. Just saying ‘wait’ and then not replying, leaving the guests hanging at the door.”
“Just because they have money, they can’t be so arrogant!” Christy Xenos said discontentedly.
Who would leave people hanging like that!
As a result, shortly after she finished speaking, the vermilion gate slowly opened.
A young man came out from the inside.
Christy Xenos couldn’t help but wonder, “Is this Butler Howard?”
It didn’t sound like such a young man by his voice.
“Hello, the three of you, please follow me,” the young man said.
He was still polite but not warm towards them, somewhat distance.
Christy Xenos curiously asked, “Are you Butler Howard?”
“No, I’m not,” the young man replied.
They couldn’t possibly trouble Butler Howard to come; they didn’t have such prestige.
“I’m just guarding the door,” the young man said.
He was a security staff member.
He couldn’t be considered a bodyguard of the family mansion, but he was responsible for monitoring the entrance.
Although he didn’t have the outstanding skills of the family mansion’s bodyguards, he was more than enough to watch over the three Clarke family members.
Along the way, Christy Xenos was like Liu Laolao entering the Botanical Garden.
Everything was fascinating and shocking to her.
The garden of the family mansion was indeed uniquely designed, reminiscent of the legendary noble and royal families of ancient times.
Along the way, Christy Xenos couldn’t take her eyes off it.
She thought, not to mention how much money was spent building it, just the daily maintenance would cost a considerable sum.
Christy Xenos marveled internally.
It just so happened that it snowed last night, and the white snow blanketed the artificial mountains and plants, adding a different kind of scenery.
As they walked, Christy Xenos suddenly saw a middle-aged man by the artificial mountain in the courtyard.
He was cheerfully holding a clean shovel, piling up snow beside the artificial mountain, making it quite high.
Next to the middle-aged man was a little boy.
He wore a woolen cap, thick down jacket, and snow boots.
He also wore small leather gloves on his hands.
His little face was red and flushed from the cold.
Because of his pale skin, the flushed color appeared even more obvious.
It made his little face look crystal clear, like a finely carved jade statue.
As the middle-aged man shoveled the snow beside the artificial mountain, the little boy gathered the snow.
It looked like they were going to build a snowman.
And that little boy was Morgan Zhekova.
After a heavy snowfall last night, Morgan had been thinking about the snow in the family mansion.
So early in the morning, he asked Adrian Zhekova to bring him to the family mansion to play.
Adrian Zhekova was happy that the little guy had somewhere to go, and wouldn’t bother them anymore.
He and Cindy Clarke could enjoy their world for two.
So the couple didn’t stay in the family mansion today, leaving Morgan behind and going out to have fun.
The gardener who was shoveling snow for Morgan was the family mansion’s gardener, who usually accompanied Morgan when he had nothing to do.
Christy Xenos pulled Wendy Clarke aside and whispered, “Is that child the child of a servant in the family mansion?”
To say that the family mansion offered good treatment, even the servants’ children could be brought in freely.
As Christy Xenos thought about it, she suddenly felt that her own came from a family that wasn’t even as good as the servants’.
At least the servants’ children could enter the mansion freely.
What about them?
“Anyway, the child looks quite good,” Christy Xenos whispered again.
She thought that by pulling Wendy Clarke back a little and speaking softly, the young man from the family mansion wouldn’t hear them.
But in reality, the young man could hear everything clearly.
As the young man walked in front, the three of them couldn’t see his expression.
The young man coldly pursed his lips.
They hadn’t even seen their young master, not even knowing who he was, yet they came to their door under the banner of being Cindy Clarke’s family.
They really had nerve.
Morgan saw them coming and suddenly froze, hiding behind the gardener, stealthily observing.
Adrian Zhekova, to be on the safe side, had intentionally shown Morgan pictures of the three Clarke family members.
So that Morgan could know who they were when he saw them.
He must not follow them.
Therefore, Morgan was not unfamiliar with them when he saw them now.
He recognized them at a glance.
Unexpectedly, they came to the family mansion!
Morgan saw Christy Xenos looking at him and quickly hid behind the gardener.
After they walked away, Morgan hurriedly called Adrian Zhekova.
Adrian Zhekova and Cindy Clarke were in the movie theater.
In fact, the two had never officially dated.
Even before their marriage, they hadn’t had a proper date.
