Daddy! Come Home for Dinner! - Chapter 464
Chapter 464: Chapter 464: Do you guys miss me?
His words genuinely left him at a loss for a retort.
Not that he couldn’t, rather he dared not.
If he did counter, wouldn’t that imply that Cindy Clarke was not likable?
That was evidently false.
How likable Cindy Clarke is!
Adrian Zhekova was thoroughly silenced by Morgan Zhekova, that cunning little fox, with nothing to say.
Thus, Cindy quickly prepared breakfast.
After the three of them had breakfast, they set off for the family mansion.
Since it wasn’t their first visit and they were family, Butler Howard didn’t specially come out to greet them.
He just opened the door for them and let them in on their own.
The elderly couple was still in the Main Hall. From afar, before they saw Morgan, they heard the cute voice of the little fellow: “Great Grandfather, Great Grandmother, did you miss me?”
Only when these words rang out did the elderly couple see the little fellow come into sight.
His two tiny legs were lifted high trying strenuously to step over the high threshold connecting the courtyard.
Then he hurriedly dashed towards the Main Hall.
The elderly couple could no longer hold it in and both rose to walk towards the doorway.
The little fellow just reached the doorway too.
Stepping over the threshold with effort, for his tiny little legs, the height of the Entrance Hall was almost as tall as his legs.
The effort it took to step over the threshold was almost like him sitting directly on it.
Thus, the little fellow just managed to step in one leg, when the rushing Old Master scooped him up.
The little fellow was startled. The old man was aged, he didn’t expect him to still be pretty vigorous.
“Oh my, my little cutie!”
As soon as Adrian and Cindy entered, they heard the Old Master speaking to Morgan in this way.
Cindy’s face took on a startled expression.
Previously, when they asked the Old Master to say these words, he seemed quite uncomfortable and reluctant.
But just a few days later, today he readily started saying it even before Morgan had the chance to tease him.
As Cindy heard him, she felt somewhat cringey.
Morgan already felt the Old Master’s affection deeply, and immediately nestled half of his face close to the Old Master’s lips: “Then you shouldn’t delay planting a kiss on your little cutie!”
“Yes! Alright, alright.” The Old Master hastily nodded, and promptly kissed the little one’s cheek.
“Great Grandmother, did you miss me?” Even in the Old Master’s embrace, the little fellow couldn’t stay quiet and leaned to ask the Old Madam standing by.
The Old Madam responded with a beaming smile: “Missed you, of course I did, I missed you a lot.”
The little fellow right away stretched out his arms to the Old Madam requesting a cuddle: “Then why don’t you hug me quickly?”
Cindy worried that the weight of the little fellow could be a bit too much for the Old Madam to bear.
She was thinking about whether to voice her worry, fearing that speaking up may dampen the Old Madam’s enthusiasm.
It was rare for the Old Madam to be so intimate with Morgan.
But before Cindy could voice her concerns, the Old Madam had already enveloped Morgan in her embrace.
The Old Madam’s manner was simply akin to snatching him away.
Thus, the moment the Old Master’s embrace was empty, the little fellow landed in the Old Madam’s embrace.
The little fellow promptly extended the other half of his face to the Old Madam: “Kiss me too.”
Was she truly missing him?
Why does he have to remind her to kiss him?
The Old Madam promptly puckered up her lips and planted a kiss on the other cheek of the little fellow.
A satisfied Morgan, holding his face, said: “Great Grandmother, better put me down quickly. I’m a big kid now, very heavy.”
Truth be told, the Old Madam really felt Morgan was a bit heavy.
He felt quite hefty in her embrace, she hadn’t set him down only because of her love for Morgan, which compelled her to hold on.
The Old Madam quickly put him down and said to Cindy: “We, your grandfather and I, will attend the competition this afternoon.”
