Chapter 109 - 109: Leading you
Seeing them come out, Adrian Zhekova immediately stood up straight. Morgan Clarke exclaimed in surprise, “Uncle!”
Adrian Zhekova was indeed Morgan’s father, yet he called him uncle.
Cindy Clarke felt somewhat uncomfortable inside.
She thought that not telling Morgan about this matter was too selfish of her.
It was unfair to Adrian Zhekova.
But once he knew, he didn’t run away but wanted to fulfill his responsibility.
However, he couldn’t even earn a “Dad” in return.
Cindy looked at Adrian Zhekova with embarrassment and self-blame.
But Adrian Zhekova didn’t seem to care at all, as he first picked up Morgan.
Morgan struggled in his arms, “Uncle, I am a big kid now, don’t always carry me.”
Although that’s what he said, the little guy’s chubby hands were tightly holding onto Adrian’s clothes, not letting go.
Even the struggling seemed just for show.
Morgan looked around in Adrian’s arms.
Adrian was much taller than Cindy.
With different heights came different views.
Moreover, Adrian’s embrace was particularly firm.
Although it wasn’t as soft and comfortable as Cindy’s, it had a different sense of reassurance and steadiness.
After pretending, Morgan reluctantly said, “Forget it, I am so cute, it is understandable that you want to hold me.” He lifted his chin, “Then… then let’s just let you hold me a little more!”
“Ah, there’s no choice!” sighed Morgan.
Adrian chuckled coldly, “Since you are so unwilling, I won’t force you. Let’s put you down.”
As he said this, Adrian started to put Morgan down.
His eyes widened in shock.
Adrian could just carry and let go of him as he pleased.
How could he be so willful!
Moreover… Moreover, he hadn’t been held enough yet!
He had always been with Cindy, and besides Adrian, he had never been held by a man!
Morgan wondered if being held by a father would feel like this.
Seeing Morgan’s face collapse, Cindy knew he had gone too far.
Adrian clearly knew that Morgan was acting strong but deliberately teased him.
The father and son were both competitive, loving, and fighting each other.
In the past, Adrian used to say he didn’t know who the child took after.
Now it seemed Morgan’s temperament was 100% inherited from Adrian.
The two were simply identical.
Cindy hurriedly supported Morgan, smiled and gave Adrian a look, telling him not to let go of Morgan.
Then she asked, “How come you’re here?”
“To send Morgan to the nursery with you, ” Adrian replied.
Hearing this, Morgan blinked and said, “But our nursery has a school bus that waits right at the entrance of the residential area.”
Adrian: ‘
Cindy quickly smiled and said, “It’s alright, isn’t it good to accompany him to the school bus together?”
So, Adrian left his car here.
He walked with Cindy towards the entrance.
Halfway there, Morgan sincerely said, “Uncle, put me down.”
If the nursery children saw that he was still being carried despite being so big, it would be so humiliating.
This time, Adrian put him down without Cindy stopping him.
Morgan held Cindy’s hand and looked up at Adrian again.
After hesitating for a moment, he slowly stretched out his little hand to touch
Adrian’s hand.
Adrian lowered his head and saw Morgan’s slightly blushing face as he handed his small hand to him: “Give… give you to hold?”
