Chapter 584: Chapter 584: Family Head’s Ability

“If I still doubted that after all this time together, what would that make me?” If she was really like that, she wouldn’t be worth Adrian Zhekova’s affection.

“Besides, I worry that the situation with my family might make you feel annoyed.” Cindy said.

“When love is at its strongest, all the flaws and shortcomings of your partner can be tolerated.”

“But, what about when time goes on?” Cindy said, “These are my family members, and even if I don’t want to deal with them, I can only ignore them. I can’t actually do anything to them.”

“This way, I can only passively resist them, unable to completely break free from them.”

“If they keep coming back like sticky candy, I can only shake them off each time. But I’m their daughter, and I have no choice. You, however, have nothing to do with them.”

“Over time, constantly sticking and shaking off like this, I’m afraid you’ll finally be fed up, and even become fed up with me as well.”

Seeing that Adrian was about to speak, Cindy pinched his hand and interrupted him, “Of course, I trust you now. If I doubted your feelings for me, I’d be heartless.”

“This… wasn’t this my previous mindset? I said before that we should try dating first because I had these concerns.”

“For my sake, you’ve gone to great lengths to keep an eye on Nork City. Whatever I want to do, you cooperate and give all the decision-making power to me. And for me, I just need to make a decision, while you take care of the actual implementation.”

“How could I possibly doubt you after you’ve done all this?” Cindy said.

Adrian exhaled a sigh of relief, and his expression relaxed a little.

“I wanted to say that you’ve only heard me talk about my family situation before. This time, you saw it for yourself.” Cindy said.

“During the competition, you saw them with your own eyes. Later, when I went to meet them, I hid a camera on me, and you watched the whole thing.” Cindy said.

She did that because Adrian was worried.

He was afraid that something might happen, and he wouldn’t know, unable to react in time.

Therefore, he had Cindy wear a tiny camera.

Adrian saw everything – what Cindy said to them and what happened during the encounter.

Cindy agreed to wear the camera not because she was worried about her own safety, but because she wanted Adrian to see firsthand what her parents were like.

She wanted him to have a direct and clear understanding.

So that Adrian wouldn’t underestimate them.

“So, even with my family being like this, do you still want to marry me?” Cindy asked.

Her eyes were wet, and she hesitated to lift her head.

But she gathered the courage to face it.

As Cindy spoke, she looked up at Adrian.

She found herself staring directly into Adrian’s smile.

“To me, your family’s affairs and your family members have never been an issue.” Adrian said.

“As soon as I learned about how you were plotted against by Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke, I had an idea of what kind of people they were. Although I didn’t see Wendy this time, only your parents, their appearance matched the image I had in my mind.” Adrian said.

“Nothing was beyond my expectations. Their words and actions did not surprise me, as they were all within my expectations.” Adrian said.

“Even if I see Wendy in the future, I still won’t be surprised.” Adrian smiled slightly, “Like I told you before, the Zhekova Family is actually very large, with many members.”

“What you’ve seen is just our immediate family,” Adrian said, “Our family is very harmonious and full of love. But with so many members in the Zhekova Family, not every household is like this.”

“Especially because the Zhekova Family possesses so much, many inside the family covet it for themselves. When a family is so large, tangled relationships arise. Some relatives are even more unbearable than yours.”

“In particular, when it comes to money, power, and influence,” Adrian said, “You just haven’t seen it yet. Gradually, as you naturally encounter it, you’ll understand why I don’t care about your family.”

“That’s because their actions pale in comparison to our relatives’,” Adrian said with a light laugh.

“Our relatives will do just about anything. With great power comes great irresponsibility.” Adrian said, scoffing as he mentioned them.

“Everyone says I’m the heir of the Zhekova Family. But that position has always been watched closely by others, never left unguarded.”

“Each of the Big Eight families has a different method of selecting heirs,” Adrian continued.

Cindy looked puzzled.

Although Adrian had strayed from the original topic, Cindy was still listening attentively and allowing him to lead the conversation.

“It’s the Family Head ability,” Adrian said, “Each family’s awakening time and conditions for the ability may differ, but they share one similarity: only one person in each generation can awaken the Family Head ability. And the one who awakens it becomes the Family Head.”

“Another feature is that the chances of the current Family Head’s descendants awakening the Family Head ability are higher. At least so far, there haven’t been any unexpected occurrences within the Big Eight families for a hundred years.”

“Just like how the Old Master became the Family Head naturally after awakening the ability, my father’s chances of awakening the ability were greater, and he did so without fail. Now it’s my turn, and I’ve awakened it too.”

“Family Head ability?” Cindy blinked, feeling that it sounded a bit too fantastical.

It seemed like something out of a superhero movie.

“It’s a bit like a superhero power, but not as mysterious or powerful,” Adrian said.

Suddenly, Cindy covered her mouth, her eyes wide in astonishment, “You… Can you… can you read minds?”

If that were true, wouldn’t he know all the things she had complained about before? There would be no secrets from him.

That idea, to be honest, was a bit unsettling.

Adrian cocked his head and said, “It’s not that powerful. There are conditions.”

“What conditions?” Cindy asked subconsciously.

“I can only hear the thoughts of one person at a time, and I have to focus all my attention on that person. For example, if there were a group of people, I wouldn’t be able to sense what they’re all thinking. I could only perceive one of them.”
