Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 480: 480: You’re Not Going!

She came home, packed her things, and left.

She even took with her the Clarke Family’s ancestral recipes.

Wendy Clarke didn’t care much about the recipes.

Because many of the dishes in them were impossible to recreate now.

Even if Cindy took them, it’d be of no use.

Cindy had no money, no means, and no way to research the recipes.

As for the majority of the cuisines in the recipes, Joshua had them firmly engraved in his memory.

When their Restaurant started making money later, Wendy let Joshua research them slowly.

They could always figure out a few dishes.

That’s why they were not in a hurry to find Cindy.

Because they thought it didn’t matter.

Back then, Christy Xenos used the excuse that Cindy might have gone back to school to reassure Joshua.

But Cindy not only came home to help the Restaurant every week.

If she had no afternoon classes, she would come back to help.

However, a week passed, and Joshua never saw Cindy again.

Cindy’s mobile phone was secretly bought by herself, and to avoid arousing Christy’s suspicion, she didn’t even buy a SIM card.

Joshua could only call Cindy’s dormitory.

As a result, Cindy’s roommate answered and said that Cindy hadn’t been to school for a week.

Joshua got anxious.

Later, he learned from the school that Cindy had applied for a leave of absence.

Where Cindy went, nobody knew.

Christy and Wendy pretended to be innocent, acting like they had no idea what was going on.

They even pretended to be worried, looking for any traces of Cindy with Joshua together.

At the time, Christy would constantly mutter: “Where on earth did this child go? How could she leave without a word, not even saying goodbye? Doesn’t she know how worried her family members are?”

Five years passed like this.

Joshua always kept Cindy in his thoughts, but there was nothing he could do. He could never find her.

Until the last major competition, where Cindy appeared on the program.

And coincidentally, she was caught by Christy and Wendy.

They originally intended to keep it from Joshua.

Who knew that the next day, Joshua happened to return to their old residence to catch up with old neighbors.

All the old neighbors recognized Cindy.

A few of them had watched the competition’s live broadcast the day before.

They immediately told Joshua about it.

However, the old neighbors didn’t know that Cindy had run away and that the Clarke Family couldn’t find her.

They just thought that Cindy had gone to Belfard to make a living.

No one in the Clarke Family told the old neighbors about Cindy leaving.

They even said to Joshua: “Cindy from your family is doing great now. She unexpectedly showed up in such a big competition and even advanced. You and Christy, as a couple, better prepare to enjoy your good fortune. Wendy opened a big Restaurant, and Cindy has become a celebrity.”

At the time, Joshua was stunned after listening to them.

He asked for details and found out that Cindy was in Belfard!

He also asked about the Pingla Competition.

He immediately rushed home to tell Christy and Wendy.

As for Christy and Wendy, who already knew about this, they could only pretend as if they had just heard it.

Wendy found the previous competition video for Joshua to watch.

He saw that Cindy looked fair-skinned and delicate, not as if she had suffered.

Her spirit seemed even better than theirs in Nork City.

Only then did Joshua feel relieved.

He immediately wanted to go to Belfard to find Cindy.

How could Christy allow it?

She had already discussed the matter with Wendy.

So, at that moment, Christy shouted: “You are not allowed to go!”

Joshua was startled and asked: “Our daughter has been missing for five years; now that we finally have news of her, why not go find her?”

“Look at her; she’s doing better than us.” Christy said in a sharp voice.
