Chapter 562: Chapter 562: Do You Even Have Any Shame Left?

“I don’t really care if other people think I’m ignorant, but if Ella sees me like that, and it gives her a negative impression of our class reunion, it might backfire. Don’t you think?” Erica explained to Wendy.

Wendy was already unhappy, feeling that Erica was just brushing her off.

Since she had come back, why not take her with her?

But now, hearing Erica’s explanation, although it seemed reasonable, Wendy became even more unhappy.

What did Erica mean by that?

Did she think Wendy was narrow-minded?

Or did she think Wendy was particularly ignorant?

She didn’t understand these worldly things, but did she need Erica to teach her that?

Wendy was annoyed inside, but didn’t show it on her face.

After all, she still needed Erica’s help to get to know Ella.

***

The hotel in Belfard.

Cindy arrived at the door of Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos’s room.

After standing there, she took a deep breath and adjusted her expression before pressing the doorbell.

Her confident and slightly cold expression disappeared.

She replaced it with a timid and difficult expression, then pressed the doorbell.

Through the door, she could hear the doorbell ringing inside.

Soon after, footsteps were heard from the room.

Then, the door was opened.

Cindy hadn’t yet seen who it was.

Suddenly, a slap came her way.

After not seeing each other for five years, Cindy had underestimated how Christy’s human nature had become even more shameless.

Fortunately, Cindy was quick to react. As soon as the shadow of a slap appeared in front of her eyes, she hurriedly dodged to the side without even thinking.

Although she was planning to deceive her father and Christy this time, she wasn’t ready to take this slap from Christy for real.

However, Christy’s move was just too fast.

Although Cindy managed to avoid the danger of being slapped in the face, she couldn’t entirely dodge it.

Cindy frowned slightly and said, “I thought it was really strange, she obviously had my contact information, so why didn’t she tell you guys?”

“What?” Joshua exclaimed, “She has your contact information?”

“Yeah,” Cindy nodded, “Didn’t she tell you? How would I know that you guys were coming if she hadn’t told me?”

“Also, she only told me last night. It was too late for me to come over at night, so I came first thing in the morning,” Cindy explained earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Christy suddenly slapped her thigh, “I knew it! That Zoe Silverstone was trying to swindle our money!”

“Scam? What money did she scam from you?” Cindy asked immediately.

Christy remained silent.

She had always been astute. How could she admit to being swindled?

Joshua awkwardly explained the situation of buying the tickets.

“The tickets don’t need to be this expensive,” Cindy said, “You actually spent that much money. Even if the official tickets are sold out, you can go find a scalper. It wouldn’t be that exaggerated, it would just be a bit more expensive, like a hundred or two hundred more.”

Cindy sighed sadly, “Ah, it’s such a shame, all that money you gave her. If you gave it to me instead, it would have been so much better.”

“What did you say?” Christy glared at her sharply.

As expected, Cindy really intended to ask for money.

“We haven’t even asked you for money yet, but you’re already trying to take ours. Have you no shame!” Upon hearing that Cindy dared to calculate her money, Christy’s eyes widened with anger.

She swung her hand, trying to hit Cindy again.

But how could Cindy let her hit her, she raised her hand and grabbed Christy’s wrist.

Christy hadn’t expected Cindy to have become this strong.

In the past, when Cindy helped out with the family restaurant and learned to cook from Joshua, she had held many pots and pans.

But she was never this strong.

That was all because Cindy had been taking care of Morgan Zhekova all by herself since his birth.

When Morgan was sick or crying, she had to hold him.

And she held him all the time.

When Morgan was still unsteady on his feet as a child, and they went out to play, he would get tired after walking for a while and needed Cindy to carry him.

Not to mention that even now, Morgan would still act spoiled with her when no one else was around.

Even though Morgan has been getting heavier, Cindy would still carry him whenever possible.

Over time, naturally, her strength had increased.

Christy found that her wrist was being held by Cindy and she couldn’t move it at all.
