Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! Chapter 526 – Less than a hundred people, that’s it?

Chapter 526: Chapter 526: Less than a hundred people, that’s it?

Doing things that are harmful to others but not beneficial to herself was something that Zoe Silverstone really enjoyed.

Moreover, hiding some things, some details, and having more information that the other party doesn’t have, makes it easier to take the initiative.

Zoe Silverstone was not a philanthropist, and she would not tell everything she knew to Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke at once.

She would definitely keep some things to herself.

And the matter about Adrian Zhekova was the most crucial thing regarding Cindy Clarke.

If she were to hide anything, it would naturally be the most critical point.

Cindy thought that there was a high probability that Zoe Silverstone wouldn’t mention anything about Adrian Zhekova.

Perhaps she intended to pit both sides against each other.

Zoe Silverstone wanted Cindy to engage with Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke and get entangled with them.

But she wasn’t really trying to let Christy Xenos and Wendy Clarke take advantage of Adrian Zhekova.

The saying that your enemies might know you best was really true.

Cindy had guessed Zoe Silverstone’s intentions quite accurately.

“So, on Saturday, during the competition, I’ll have to ask you to keep an eye on things,” Cindy said.

Adrian Zhekova raised an eyebrow: “Isn’t that being too polite? We’re on the same side, there’s no need for such formalities like ‘please’.”

Cindy smiled and nodded, then said directly: “Zoe Silverstone doesn’t know where I live, so she can’t tell them. If my parents want to see me, the quickest way is probably at the competition venue on Saturday.”

“They might try to find me through Zoe Silverstone backstage, or wait for me at the entrance of the racecourse. However, there are quite a few entrances to the racecourse, and it’s hard for them to determine where I would leave from. So the probability of them choosing to block the entrance is not very high.”

“The most likely scenario is that they’ll go backstage directly through Zoe Silverstone.” Cindy said to Adrian Zhekova, “Before I can confirm whether they know about our relationship or not, I can’t meet them.”

“I have to be sure how much they know about me before I can respond,” added Cindy. “I absolutely cannot be in a weak position.”

“So, during the competition, your people will still have to keep a close watch. This includes every entrance and exit of the racecourse, as well as every road leading to the backstage. I can’t meet them before that,” said Cindy.

“Don’t worry.” Adrian Zhekova didn’t hesitate and immediately made arrangements.

The bodyguards employed by the Zhekova Family were mostly retired special forces personnel, as well as retired bodyguards from the Lanarn Training Ground.

But all of these people were the elite of the elite.

Each of the other Big Eight families also had their own bodyguards.

So there was no way there could be too many of them.

For each family, there were no more than a hundred people.

The rest were professional bodyguards.

Yet, in the eyes of the Big Eight families, these people were still not professional enough compared to those from Lanarn Training Ground.

So, they were trained and improved by the retired secret guards from Lanarn Training Grounds.

Luckily, Adrian Zhekova had not said his idea out loud.

Otherwise, if people heard him, wouldn’t they be taken aback?

Less than a hundred people, that’s all?

What’s more, these fewer than a hundred people were special forces personnel and secret guards from Lanarn Training Grounds.

What kind of bodyguard group was this?

With them, it was almost like having a mobile stronghold.

And the Big Eight families still weren’t satisfied?

Not enough?

Feeling that it’s lacking?

There were nearly a hundred elite individuals.

Not to mention those additional, privately hired bodyguards.

How many there were in total was hard to say.

It was a huge number even if you just thought about it.

Of course, the Big Eight families wouldn’t announce this publicly.

Letting people know their family’s specific strength would be a very dangerous thing in any aspect.

Once everything was arranged, Adrian Zhekova hung up the phone and muttered to himself, still somewhat uneasy, “Should I get some more people from the Lanarn Training Ground?”

He hesitated for a moment, then added, “I think I need to get some more people, just to be safe.”

“There’s no need for that,” Cindy quickly stopped him. “I only need to stop two people, plus Zoe Silverstone, that’s three. And two of them are my middle-aged parents, ordinary people. There’s no need for such a big show. The people you have now are enough.”

“If you really want to get more people from Lanarn Training Ground, plus your existing people, are you planning to surround the racecourse inside and out?” Cindy thought of that scene and felt it was too exaggerated.

Eventually, she managed to persuade Adrian Zhekova.

Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos’s whereabouts were now completely under Adrian Zhekova’s watchful eye.

The only thing left was to attach a CCTV to them and monitor them in real-time.

From the moment Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos got off the plane, their whereabouts had been monitored.

Their hotel, the car they took, the license plate number, the places they passed, and what they did, Adrian Zhekova was aware of every detail.

However, they hadn’t actually installed any surveillance devices on them.

So when Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos entered the hotel room, they couldn’t keep track of what was happening in the room.

Once Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos were settled in, their luggage was unpacked, and everything was tidied up a bit.

Christy Xenos then contacted Zoe Silverstone using the contact information Wendy Clarke had given her.

“Which hotel are you staying in? I’ll come to you.” Zoe Silverstone was excited upon hearing that Christy Xenos and Joshua Clarke had arrived.

Cindy Clarke’s good days were coming to an end!

Christy Xenos reported the name of the hotel.

Zoe Silverstone set off immediately.

Over forty minutes later, Zoe Silverstone appeared at the hotel entrance.

At the same time, the people sent by Adrian Zhekova immediately reported this to him.

Zoe Silverstone arrived at the hotel room, “Oh, Wendy’s not here?”

Joshua Clarke, the good old man, smiled, “There was a temporary problem at the family restaurant, so Wendy’s staying in Nork City to take care of it first. If she can make it, she’ll come over.”

Zoe Silverstone’s heart sank.

Without Wendy’s supervision, could Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos handle it?

Christy Xenos said, “Before leaving, Wendy and I discussed everything. If there’s anything, I’ll consult with her before making any decisions.”

Zoe Silverstone was slightly relieved.

Well, communication is so convenient now.

Christy Xenos said, “Has Wendy ever told you? That if we’re to meet Cindy, we’ll need your help. We don’t know where Cindy lives, and the only way we can find her is at the competition venue.”

“But there are so many people at the competition venue that we can’t get close to her at all. We’re afraid that contestants have a dedicated channel, and we won’t be able to meet with her. And there are so many entrances and exits to the venue that we don’t know which one to wait at. In case we make a mistake, we’ll miss her.”

“With the competition getting more and more intense, whether Cindy can advance to the next round is still uncertain,” added Christy Xenos.

At this moment, the water in the room’s electric kettle was boiling.

Joshua Clarke went to brew some tea and brought it over for Christy Xenos and Zoe Silverstone.
