Chapter 589: Chapter 589: Make Her Shiver All Over
“The same principle applies now.” Adrian Zhekova quickly turned his head and glanced at Cindy Clarke.
“But isn’t it true that only those who have awakened the Family Head’s ability can become the Family Head?” Cindy was a little puzzled, “And in each generation, only one person can awaken this ability.”
Cindy said this and then suddenly stopped.
After a pause, she said, “Or are you saying that if …”
Cindy was frightened by her own speculation. freewebnøvel.com
She took a deep breath before continuing, “If the person with the Family Head’s ability… no… is no longer here.”
Anyway, she couldn’t bring herself to say the word “dead.”
Because those who possessed the Family Head’s ability – the Old Master, Maverick Zhekova, and Adrian Zhekova – were all dear to her.
Even if it was just an analysis, even if there was no specific reference, even if it was just a hypothetical, and even if it was about a non-existent person.
She didn’t want to use that word on them.
She knew that if she spoke this hypothesis, it would inevitably lead to a sense of identification.
She didn’t want them to be associated with that word.
“So, in the same generation, will there be a new person who reawakens the Family Head’s ability?” Cindy asked.
This possibility sent chills down her spine.
“That won’t happen,” Adrian replied.
Hearing this, Cindy breathed a sigh of relief.
Adrian continued, “The Family Head’s ability can only awaken in one person per generation, and only once.”
“If someone has awakened the Family Head’s ability, regardless of whether they are alive or dead, no one else will have the chance to awaken it. Even if they are no longer in this world. Once the Family Head’s ability has been awakened and has appeared, there won’t be a second person to awaken it in that generation.”
“This is the value of the Family Head’s ability. It’s not about how powerful the ability itself is,” Adrian explained.
“Then …” Cindy was now a bit confused.
“I know what you’re thinking. You think that if the Family Head’s ability could regenerate, even though there could only be one person per generation to awaken it, if that person dies, the new Family Head’s ability would appear in a new person.”
“In that case, others would have a reason to eliminate the first person who awakened the ability to gain the power they want,” Adrian said.
“But if it’s like this, there might be endless deaths. Wouldn’t all the people in the Zhekova family die?” When Adrian brought up such things, he didn’t hold back.
Even if the hypothesis was on himself, he still showed no fear.
“Tsk tsk!” Cindy hurriedly said, “This word is so unlucky, why do you say it so many times? Even if it’s hypothetical, don’t say it!”
“Alright, alright.” Adrian quickly agreed.
“So how …” Cindy frowned, “Since even if there’s an accident, the Family Head’s ability won’t fall into the hands of others. What is there for them to fight for?”
“Actually, it’s very simple. If a person with the Family Head’s ability…” Adrian wanted to say the word “dead” but remembered that Cindy was very taboo about that word.
He knew that she didn’t want him to curse himself like that.
Adrian paused for a moment and said, “If something happens and they are no longer here. Then there would be no one else to awaken the Family Head’s ability, creating a leaderless situation. But, there would still need to be someone to become the next Family Head, right?”
“Conveniently, no one else has the Family Head’s ability, so they are all on the same starting line, and everyone competes based on their own abilities.” Adrian chuckled, “So, isn’t this position still coveted?”
“Are you in danger?” Cindy immediately became anxious.
“For now, they don’t dare to think about it on this level.” Adrian said, “I’m just afraid that some people may lose their minds for power, and what happens in the future is all uncertain.”
“I just want you to know that I’m not that safe, but it’s not as terrifying as you imagine.”
“I also want you to understand that the Zhekova family is more terrifying than the Clarke family. So, the Clarke family is not something that can become a burden to you.”
“Actually, not every generation of the Zhekova family is so bloody and violent. For example, Dylan’s family is very harmonious, not fighting, and loving each other. The only one who had the heart to compete was suppressed by his own son, and even his own son wouldn’t cooperate with him. So what’s the point of competing?” Adrian laughed.
Adrian was referring to Douglas Hamilton.
“It’s just that you never know when a rebellious relative might appear.” Adrian said, “Besides, once this thing happens, it’s easy to continue.”
“For example, if one generation fails to fight for power and remains unwilling, they would instill this belief in the next generation. As it is passed down, from generation to generation, it becomes difficult to maintain peace.”
“The Zhekova family is not in such dire straits; it’s just that some people have some disturbances.” Adrian meant to let Cindy not be too nervous.
“I say this only to let you know what to expect. The Elders think you’ve just come into contact with the Zhekova family, and exposing you to so much all at once might not allow you to adapt fully.”
“It’s better to let things take their natural course. As we grow closer, you will gradually come into contact with more information, and you will naturally learn about it.” Adrian said.
“I’m just giving you a heads-up.”
Cindy shrank her neck: “Now that you’ve mentioned it, I’m even more nervous.”
Adrian stretched out his hand and rubbed Cindy’s head: “What are you nervous about? Have you encountered any danger since being with me?”
“Of course not,” Cindy replied.
“So, our life won’t change,” Adrian said.
As long as he was there, those nasty things would be blocked by him.
He would try hard to keep her life unchanged.
“But I’m not afraid either,” Cindy said.
Adrian couldn’t help but look at her.
Cindy was very serious: “I know what you’re thinking.”
“Oh? You’re saying that makes me think you have the ability to sense people’s thoughts,” Adrian laughed.
“Of course, I don’t.” Cindy couldn’t help but laugh, “But I know you.”
“You must want to help me block all the bad things, even the dangerous ones, and keep them away from me. You want to use yourself as a barrier to protect me from harm.”
“Yet, all the harm is directed towards you now.” Cindy looked at Adrian’s side profile, her heart suddenly aching.
His side profile was very good-looking. Others always said he had a dog-like personality, but at this moment, Cindy felt that he was carrying too much weight on his shoulders.
“This isn’t right, and it’s not fair,” Cindy said, “You’re helping me resolve all my difficulties, blocking the things in my family, and also blocking the dangers coming from the Zhekova family and elsewhere.”
“You are taking on everything by yourself, which is too heavy.”
