Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 641 - : Regain Honor

Chapter 641: Chapter 641: Regain Honor

Doing what they were genuinely interested in, and dedicating their days to perfecting their culinary skills, they rarely had any interaction with people like Edward Lopez.

Even when part of the same circle and experiencing various intersections, they had never tangled with Edward Lopez.

Yellen Brooks nodded and said, “Then I’m not going either.”

Larry Bennett, on the other hand, was interested in giving it a try to see if he could seize an opportunity.

However, with everyone else not going, it would seem a bit too eager for him to go alone.

So Larry Bennett remained silent as well.

Edward Lopez’s assistant was furious upon seeing this, “Are none of you going?”

“No.” Aiden Huxley coldly said, “What a joke! Acting all high and mighty in front of us.”

If he couldn’t manage this affair, Edward Lopez would definitely scold him later.

Edward Lopez’s assistant then asked Cindy Clarke, “Cindy, what about you? Aren’t you going either?”

Larry Bennett and Yellen Brooks were too timid to go.

The 10 people under Pingla Academy seemed to have background support and were fearless, so they also didn’t go.

However, Cindy was just an ordinary food blogger. Could she afford not to care?

Especially when it comes to being an internet celebrity, having some connection with Edward Lopez and meeting him should also be beneficial for her.

Without any hesitation, Cindy said, “No.”

“You! All of you! All right!” Edward Lopez’s assistant nodded incessantly.

These people truly acted like a bunch of tyrants!

Irritated, the assistant turned around and left. When he returned to Edward Lopez’s side, he told him everything they had just said.

Edward Lopez suddenly felt humiliated, especially since it had all happened in front of Ella Doone and Wendy Clarke. freeweɓnovel.cøm

He had sounded so impressive bragging in front of Wendy Clarke earlier, but now those contestants didn’t seem to care about him at all.

Edward Lopez tried to recall the names of those contestants and suddenly said, “The one named Parker Honi, I know of a certain Honi Family. He couldn’t possibly be from their family, could he?”

The assistant immediately said, “The others, such as the Hudson Family, Xenos Family, Joy Family, Vahn Family, and so on, seem to match those of the 10 people from Pingla Academy right now.”

With this, the assistant managed to save face for Edward Lopez.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, they had to be.

Only this could explain why they turned a blind eye to Edward Lopez.

At least they were somewhat similar to the C Family, with no one needing to give face to another.

It wouldn’t be humiliating for Edward Lopez to be rejected.

Edward Lopez chuckled, “If they truly are sons and daughters of those families, then I can understand their arrogance. It’s just that those families seem quite open-minded, allowing their children to come out and study cooking to be chefs. If it were those families, would they be willing to do this? Or is Parker Honi just bragging?”

“It’s hard to say. Should I investigate?” The assistant immediately asked.

Edward Lopez agreed, “All right, you go ahead and check. I want to see if their arrogance is truly justified.”

Cindy and the others remained in the lounge, and Bartholomew Bailey asked, “What does Edward Lopez want to do?”

“No matter what he wants to do, we’re not afraid,” Jasmine Hudson replied. “Not to mention that we don’t care about what Edward Lopez offers. Even for Cindy, with Adrian Zhekova’s support, do you think she’d be interested in Edward Lopez’s benefits?”

“Exactly,” Aiden Huxley nodded. “Both Larry Bennett and Yellen Brooks, you two should think carefully. Edward Lopez is not a good person. Don’t assume that just because you don’t have anything he can covet, you can go ahead and give it a try. If anything goes wrong and he screws you over, there’ll be no place to turn for redress.”

The few of them had a positive impression of Yellen Brooks. Yellen Brooks was a very clear-headed person.

They had mixed feelings about Larry Bennett.

Although Larry Bennett didn’t cause any trouble, he was quite scheming.

He was someone who knew how to act according to circumstances.

However, since he hadn’t caused any trouble, Aiden Huxley included him in the friendly reminder.

If the two didn’t heed the warning and got into trouble, he wouldn’t be responsible.

After all, it was their choice.

“Edward Lopez has screwed over a lot of people over the years,” Gladys Joy added.

“I got it,” Yellen Brooks immediately replied.

She didn’t have many notable strengths, but there was one thing: she listened to other people’s advice.

When she couldn’t make a judgment on her own, she was willing to believe and go along with the wisdom of others.

The people from Pingla Academy wouldn’t harm her, and they had no reason to do so.

There wasn’t anything on her that was worth plotting against or setting her up.

It wasn’t clear what Larry Bennett was thinking, but at any rate, his reply was slower by half a beat, and finally, he nodded, indicating that he understood the warning and would be careful.

As for Edward Lopez, Wendy Clarke noticed that he had lost face, so she said, “Mr. Lopez, could you do me a favor?”

Edward Lopez turned his head and replied, “Tell me.”

Wendy Clarke said, “When Cindy left, she didn’t leave any contact information. I don’t know her mobile phone number or where she lives. She must have a file when she participated in the Cooking Competition, and it should have her phone number and address. I wonder if you can help me get them?”

“I can’t do it on my own,” Wendy Clarke feigned weakness, looking pitiful and helpless.

Usually in front of Edward Lopez, she gave the impression of being resourceful and capable.

Suddenly showing weakness revealed a different side of her.

This stirred some interest in Edward Lopez.

Having just lost face, Edward Lopez immediately agreed upon hearing Wendy Clarke’s request, “That’s a small matter. I’ll take care of it.”

He then turned to his assistant and asked, “Did you hear that?”

The assistant nodded right away, “Yes, I heard everything.”

Edward Lopez coldly said, “You better handle this matter well. You messed up earlier, and if you mess up again, there’s no use in me keeping you.”

The assistant hurriedly replied, “Don’t worry, Young Master Lopez. I will definitely handle it.”

Wendy Clarke didn’t intend to go backstage to find Cindy.

After all, with so many people around, if she went there and Cindy exposed her past plotting and scheming against her, it wouldn’t be good for Wendy Clarke either.

Even if Cindy had indeed suffered at Mr. Lopez’s hands back then, given Cindy’s eloquence at distorting the truth, it would be just like what she told Joshua Clarke and Christy Xenos before; she would deny having any relationship with Mr. Lopez and claim that she was framed by Wendy Clarke.

In front of so many people, if it came to that, even if Wendy Clarke wanted to explain and point out the relationship between Cindy and Mr. Lopez, no one would believe her.

That’s why Wendy Clarke planned to meet with Cindy alone.

As for Edward Lopez’s little episode, Cindy didn’t take it to heart.

She never thought that Edward Lopez might have come for her.

Mainly because Cindy never had a clear understanding of her own beauty.

She knew she was pretty, but she wasn’t so narcissistic as to think that anyone who saw her would fall in love.

So when the matter was over, she put it behind her, not taking it seriously.
