Chapter 660: Chapter 660: The Clarke Family Has Your Back

“You won’t reveal your true colors to Adrian Zhekova. In front of him, you’re still the frail, delicate little girl! Otherwise, even if I don’t benefit, you’ll be finished in the Zhekova Family!” Wendy Clarke steadied herself.

With this line of thought, she regained her confidence.

If Adrian Zhekova were to hear, she would undoubtedly be in trouble.

But Cindy Clarke would be in even more trouble.

So, Cindy wouldn’t discuss this matter in front of Adrian Zhekova.

Once Wendy processed this, she was no longer afraid.

“Why not I find an opportunity for us to meet, and you can expose my real identity in front of Adrian Zhekova?” Cindy chuckled coldly.

“Do you think I dare not?” Wendy took a deep breath, realizing that she couldn’t let Cindy lead her by the nose and dictate the pace.

“Cindy, don’t change the subject!” Wendy said coldly, “What, are you trying to dodge the topic now because you’re scared?”

“Actually, you have nothing to fear.” Wendy softened her voice again.

But this deliberately gentle voice made one’s skin crawl and seem as if she harbored ill intentions.

Not to mention how Cindy would perceive it, it would be even more obvious.

“We are all family, I still have parents, and naturally hope to see you doing well. We could never harm you.” Wendy said gently.

Cindy raised an eyebrow, originally planning to hang up, but now, she became somewhat interested and wanted to hear how Wendy was going to spin this.

Of course, Cindy would never really blacklist Wendy.

Obviously, this wasn’t because she couldn’t bear to do so.

Since Wendy had already come to Belford, why not let Wendy finish her act?

If she were to blacklist Wendy too soon, how would she cooperate with Wendy then?

“Not only won’t we harm you, but we’ll also help you.” Wendy said earnestly, “Life in Belford is difficult. It’s not easy for you to marry into the Zhekova Family, it’s unimaginable how much effort you’ve put in.”

“Now that you’ve finally made it, how can we let all your hard work go to waste?” Wendy continued.

“Since we’re family, we should help each other during difficult times. You had many complaints about me and mom back home, I know that. But any disagreements we had were just minor family feuds.”

“Which siblings and parents don’t argue occasionally? However, even if we fight at home, when we step outside, we stand united, don’t we?”

“We support each other as a family. Even if we had serious quarrels before, we can’t watch you struggle in crucial times, can’t stand by as you encounter difficulties and not lend you a hand, can we?”

“Perhaps you no longer consider us family, since you’ve married into the Zhekova Family. You’ve soared to great heights and become wealthy and powerful, looking down on us ordinary people. You haven’t contacted us for years, perhaps really intending to sever ties with us. But now that I’ve come to Belford, and since I’ve seen you, I can’t just stand by and do nothing about your situation.” Wendy spoke passionately.

“So what are you really trying to say?” Cindy reminded Wendy to get to the point instead of spouting sweet nothings.

Even Wendy herself didn’t believe these words, let alone Cindy.

If no one believes them, then what’s the point of saying them?

“I wanted to tell you,” Wendy began, “We know everything about you and Mr. Lopez, so you don’t need to hide it from us.”

“As for Adrian Zhekova and the Zhekova Family, we’ll help keep it a secret. As your family, we wish for your well-being. We don’t want you to be cast aside by the Zhekova Family after all the effort you put into marrying there. The fact that you bore Mr. Lopez a son, I won’t talk about it recklessly either.”

“After all, you must have gone through great hardship to marry into the Zhekova Family.” Wendy said, while also testing Cindy to find out how she accomplished it.

Cindy raised an eyebrow and said, “Actually, I didn’t struggle much. It was Adrian Zhekova who wanted to marry me. I guess it might have been because I bore him a son.”

“Cindy, that’s not fun. I’ve been honest and open with you, and yet you still don’t tell the truth.” Wendy replied unhappily, “You don’t have to talk about your relationship with Adrian Zhekova. But you have to admit that the son is yours and Mr. Lopez’s, right?”

“Or are you afraid to admit it?” Wendy added, “Are you worried that if you admit it, others will know? But it’s just the two of us on the call right now, and no one else can hear, so why don’t you admit it? Or are you afraid I will record our conversation?”

“Cindy, you’re really underestimating me! What do you take me for? I said earlier that no matter how much we quarrel or have conflicts in our family, in the end, we stand united when facing outsiders. Whatever issues you have, I will certainly help you.”

Cindy smirked coldly with evident sarcasm on her face, but verbally responded, “And after helping me? Why are you helping me so much? Don’t talk about us being family. From my perspective, you never do good things without a reason. You plotted against me before for 10 million. Now you’re helping me, what benefits do you want to gain?”

“Cindy, your words are really hurtful. We’re family, and we should help each other. Don’t always think that when people help you, they are trying to gain some benefit from you. Besides, since you’ve married into the Zhekova Family, our family and the Zhekova family are now related by marriage. We can help each other in business and cooperate.”

Cindy chuckled knowingly: “So all your talk boils down to your desire to gain benefits from the Zhekova Family through me?”

“Cindy, you can’t talk like that!” Wendy immediately objected, “No matter how you managed to marry into the Zhekova Family, just marrying in doesn’t mean you’ve succeeded and can completely relax. For a woman in her husband’s family, especially in a large family like the Zhekova’s, only her parents’ family is her strongest support.”

“They need their parents’ family to back them up in any situation. But as you know, our family and the Zhekova Family are worlds apart. If something were to happen and the Zhekova family causes difficulties for you, even if our family wants to help, we may not be able to do much. How could we support you then?”

“Therefore, while you can still have a say in the Zhekova Family, help our family advance. Once something happens, our family could also stand up for you. Let the Zhekova Family know that you didn’t marry into their family alone. With the Clarke Family backing you up, they won’t be able to bully you.”

Wendy’s fair words were nothing more than asking Cindy to use the Zhekova’s power to boost the Clarke Family’s status.

This was the same as ancient times when a monarch was willing to support a nobody, and that nobody became powerful overnight.
