Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!

Chapter 835: Chapter 835: Insanely Crazy_1

Mila Harrison did the math silently. Adrian Zhekova awakened his Family Head power when he was 9 years old.

The little one hadn’t even passed his fifth birthday yet. Let’s assume he’s now 5; there’s still 4 years to go.

Four years should be enough for Ethan Zhekova to marry and have children.

It’s easy to have children, but they didn’t know if there would be enough time to awaken the Family Head power.

However, Mila Harrison thought about it again and felt she was being foolish.

The Family Head power was not necessarily destined to awaken in Morgan Zhekova.

...

If he can’t awaken it when he’s 9, wouldn’t that be an opportunity for Ethan Zhekova’s son?

As long as they give birth to a child first, they have a chance to compete.

Perhaps Ethan Zhekova’s child would be born much earlier than when Adrian Zhekova awakened his powers.

Mila Harrison had never thought of Jayden Zhekova’s family as competitors. @@novelbin@@

Besides, Samson Zhekova was still young and probably wanted to play for a few more years. There was no need to rush.

Mila Harrison was oblivious to the moment Gabriel Zhekova cast a sudden profound gaze at the little one next to her.

Her question reminded him.

Morgan Zhekova had not yet awakened his Family Head power.

Adrian Zhekova only had this one son at the moment.

If something happened to Morgan Zhekova, even death, there would be no possibility of him awakening the Family Head power.

As long as they get rid of this boy before he awakens his Family Head power, he would have no chance of awakening that power.

Gabriel Zhekova regretted a bit as he pondered inside.

If only they had investigated properly in the first place.

If they had known that Adrian Zhekova had another son outside, they should have gotten rid of him before he was acknowledged as an heir.

That would have saved them all this trouble.

Gabriel Zhekova felt no burden in eliminating this little life.

He was just thinking about one problem.

Family Head power only awakens once in each generation of a family.

In other words, even if the person who awakened the Family Head power died, whether due to illness, accident, or murder,as long as they had awakened the Family Head power, a second person would not awaken that power in the same generation.

The position of the current Family Head would remain vacant, occupied by the previous Family Head until the next generations’ Family Head power was awakened and the position would then be passed on to the next heir.

This norm essentially eliminated the likelihood of ill-intentioned family members being harmful to the children who had awakened the Family Head power.

But this condition only comes into play after the Family Head power has been awakened.

Gabriel Zhekova was uncertain whether the Family Head power would still appear if the boy was eliminated before it awakened.

If Morgan Zhekova would not awaken the Family Head power, killing him would be pointless.

This wouldn’t affect the awakening of the Family Head power in someone else.

Even if it was a misjudgment, Gabriel Zhekova wouldn’t have any regrets.

What Gabriel Zhekova worried about was if the Family Head power would appear in Morgan Zhekova, and if Morgan died prematurely, would that power still appear in someone else? That was unpredictable.

There were no previous cases, whether in the Zhekova Family or in other families, no such situation had ever cropped up.

That was why Gabriel Zhekova was indecisive.

While Gabriel Zhekova was thinking, his gaze lingered on the little one without retreating.

Actually, his eyes had landed in the direction of the little one while thinking, but in reality, he hadn’t paid much attention to him.

To others, it seemed as if he was constantly staring at the little one, which was quite unnerving.

The Old Madam felt a tightness in her chest and called out in a heavy voice, “Gabriel!”

Suddenly, Gabriel Zhekova came back to his senses, turned his head, and laughed nonchalantly, “Second aunt, what’s wrong?”

The Old Madam immediately responded, “Nothing really, you were staring at Morgan, is there something wrong with him?”

Gabriel Zhekova laughed and said, “I’m just envious, wondering when Ethan will give us a grandchild.”

But the Old Madam didn’t believe him.

Gabriel Zhekova couldn’t be that naive. Even if she knew better, the Old Madam couldn’t have imagined that Gabriel Zhekova had already started plotting against the little one’s life.

They had lunch late, it wasn’t until past 3 pm that they finished eating.

After sitting at the family mansion for a while, they lost their appetite for dinner.

So, everyone chatted for a while, and when they felt it was about time, they all left the family mansion.

Only Maverick Zhekova and Victoria Wheeler, Adrian Zhekova, Cindy Clarke and little Morgan Zhekova did not leave and remained at the family mansion.

The Old Master suddenly gave a warning, “I feel that something is off about the way Gabriel Zhekova was looking at Morgan earlier. You guys should pay more attention to Morgan after you leave, don’t let him be alone no matter what.”

The Old Madam swiftly turned to look at the Old Master, “What do you mean? Do you think Gabriel Zhekova might harm Morgan?”

The two elders spoke without avoiding the little one, they wanted him to know as well.

They wanted Morgan to have some understanding of the situation. Even though Morgan was still young and couldn’t think too much,

he couldn’t afford to be careless with his own safety.

Understanding the seriousness of the situation, he had to be obedient.

If not, the Old Master would have asked Butler Howard to take Morgan out to play before he opened his mouth.

Hearing what the Old Madam said, Cindy looked at the Old Master in surprise, “Grandfather, are you suggesting…”

The Old Master took a deep breath, “I hope I’m overthinking, but Gabriel Zhekova’s reaction was indeed strange. For Morgan’s safety, I’d rather suspect Gabriel Zhekova and be cautious than regretting it when something happens in retrospect.”

The Old Madam pulled off the small purplish-red sandalwood beads from her wrist and started counting them one by one, “I noticed Gabriel Zhekova staring at Morgan the whole time, but I didn’t think in such a malicious direction.”

“I was thinking, no matter how much he wants the position of the Family Head, he wouldn’t go that far as to harm Morgan. Isn’t he still a human being if he even harms Morgan?”

The Old Master said solemnly, “If the position of the Family Head is so precious to him, I’d rather simply hand over the position to him. At least, it would save our children from his constant plots, like a snake hiding in the dark, hissing and staring at our child.”

At this point, Victoria Wheeler spoke, “If he could be that ruthless, why didn’t he do anything when Adrian Zhekova, who was younger, awakened the Family Head power?”

“People change,” said the Old Master. “Before Adrian Zhekova awakened the Family Head power, Gabriel Zhekova might have thought he still had a chance, and wouldn’t have been so ruthless.”

“By the time Adrian Zhekova awakened the power, it was too late for Gabriel to do anything.” The Old Master paused, then asked Cindy Clarke, “Did Adrian tell you that the Family Head power can only awaken once in each generation?”

Cindy Clarke shook her head, Adrian Zhekova only mentioned the existence of the Family Head power.
