Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 445: 445: Ancestral Heritage

At that time, Morgan had just left Cindy Clarke’s nursery and was eating food outside by himself.

He didn’t know exactly what was wrong, but it just didn’t taste good.

As a result, he left a lot uneaten and was scolded by the teacher, who said he shouldn’t waste food.

The poor kid had to force himself to finish the meal.

After finishing, he felt wronged because it tasted so bad.

When he got home, he pitifully told Cindy Clarke about the incident.

Later, the little one finally learned the difference between food made outside and the food made by Cindy Clarke personally.

Besides some additives, there was also a significant gap in the fundamental taste.

Maverick Zhekova enviously said to Adrian Zhekova, “I didn’t expect you to be so lucky.”

The girl he met by chance five years ago turned out to be so wonderful.

That single misunderstanding not only settled his marriage but also gave him a child.

Even more precious was that Cindy Clarke was also willing to give birth to the child.

After expressing his admiration, Maverick Zhekova quickly turned to Victoria Wheeler and said, “I’m also very lucky!”

As he spoke, he held out his hand to Victoria Wheeler’s outstretched hand.

Victoria Wheeler seemed to be in perfect harmony with him.

She knew he wanted to hold her hand.

Victoria Wheeler twitched the corner of her mouth and said, “I just want to get some Mooncake.”

Maverick Zhekova:

Adrian Zhekova raised his hand in a fist, covering his lips that wanted to laugh, changing the laughter into a cough at the last moment.

After finishing dinner, it wasn’t early anymore.

They had just had tea, mooncakes, and fruits.

It was almost nine o’clock, and it was time to leave.

Even Morgan was starting to get sleepy, rubbing his eyes.

Therefore, Adrian Zhekova was going to take Cindy Clarke and Morgan home.

Seeing Morgan’s state, the old Madam didn’t hold them back either.

“Wait a moment,” the old Madam called out to them as they were about to leave.

At some point, a square jewelry box had appeared in the old Madam’s hand.

“Cindy Clarke, come here.” The old Madam beckoned to Cindy Clarke.

Cindy Clarke went to the old Madam’s side.

The old Madam opened the jewelry box to reveal a jade ring inside.

The golden ring was set with a thumb-sized jade cabochon in the middle.

The whole body was emerald green, and it was even better in quality than Morgan’s jade pendant.

At first, they thought Morgan’s jade pendant was already the best quality.

But compared to the current ring, it seemed a bit inferior.

Looking at the design, it seemed to have some years on it.

With the passage of time and the superior quality of this jade ring, it was difficult to estimate its value.

Even if it had a price, it was priceless.

“This is our family’s heirloom ring,” said the old Madam.

Cindy Clarke was shocked in her heart.

If it could be called an heirloom by the Zhekova Family, it could only be an antique.

It could even be from the same era as some unearthed relics.

The old Madam said with a smile, “There are actually not many heirlooms left in our family. After the country was destroyed, our ancestors chose a small number of royal family members to hide among the people, and naturally, they couldn’t bring those elegant antiques and calligraphy. They could only bring this kind of small, inconspicuous, and space-saving items.”

“This ring is one of those items,” said the old Madam sadly. “The others have all become relics.”

Cindy Clarke:

It was shocking to hear this, but it was difficult to argue.

Those relics originally indeed belonged to them.

“This ring has been passed down from generation to generation. Strangely enough, our family has never had a daughter,” said the old Madam sadly. “So, this ring can only be passed down to the daughter-in-law.”
