With these thoughts in mind, Joshua took a long stride and approached Jimny
Jimmy was startled when he saw him, his heart beating rapidly. “M–Mr. Neal.”
“You know me?” Joshua’s cool aura surrounded him as he stood tall at the doorway, emanating a strong sense of pressure. After getting a clear view of Jimmy’s face, he felt a slight familiarity, as if he had seen this face somewhere before.
“Who doesn’t know Mr. Neal from the Neal Group?” Jimmy scratched his head, feeling a bit intimidated without Cynthia around. “What brings you here?”
“Where’s Cynthia?” Joshua could not be bothered wasting time with someone insignificant…
Recalling Cynthia’s words, Jimmy did not hide anything and said, “Cynthia went back to Nexuria with Mitchell.”
Joshua was surprised
Back to Nexuria? How did he not know? Most importantly, why was he addressing her so intimately?
“Are you close to Cynthia? Joshua’s eyes darkened.
“I’ve known Cynthia since elementary school.” Jimmy did not hold back as Cynthia told him their status no longer mattered after the divorce. “Why do you ask?”
Joshua felt like he knew less and less about Cynthia “When did she leave with Mitchell?”
“Yesterday. Didn’t you know? Jimmy unknowingly twisted the knife in Joshua’s heart. Then, he added with a bewildered expression, “Right after your divorce, she went to the airport with Mitchell.”
Joshua’s aura suddenly turned heavy.
Great!
She just left without saying a word.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go inside…” Jimmy could not handle the pressure.
Joshua initially did not want to pay him any attention, but as he was about to leave, he noticed the car keys in Jimmy’s hand. After detailed questioning, he learned that Cynthia not only gave that supercar to this young man but also let him live in the
villa
“Cynthia, you really outdid yourself!‘
Amidst a mix of emotions, Joshua drove back to Old Neal Manor. This time, he did not pay any heed to what the butler had to say. He knew those were just excuses from Old Man Neal to avoid seeing him.
When he entered, Old Man Neal was playing chess by himself. Upon seeing Joshua’s arrival, he pretended not to notice and continued playing, completely ignoring him.
Joshua sat across from him and asked, “Cynthia said you know where she lives.”
“Don’t you know that too?” Old Man Neal continued playing chess.
Joshua was confused.
What did he know?
“When you went to Nexuria last time, didn’t you meet her family?” Old Man Neal looked up at him, his words carrying a significant meaning.
Joshua instinctively wanted to deny it. “When del I.
However, before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly stopped.
Family?
2/2
The faces of Jonathan Yates, Cynthia’s father, and Shirley popped into his mind.
“Are you saying that Cynthia is the heiress of the Yates Group, and she’s Mr. Yates’s daughter?”
Joshua found this answer too absurd, How could Cynthia be related to the Yates Group? Did Shirley and Jonathan not tell him they only had one daughter?
In deep thought, Joshua looked at Old Man Meal, and he asked the most crucial question, “When did you find out?”
“Why do you need to know so much?” Old Man Neal showed no intention of telling him, looking at him with disdain. “Don’t forget that you’re divorced now. Whatever identity Cynthia has is none of your concern.”
For the first time, Joshua’s heart was in turmoil. Cynthia bring the heiress of the Yates Group meant that Jonathan and Shirley had been deceiving him at the hospital,
He was already skeptical when he saw Shirley had such a fondness for Cynthia despite being told she was their bodyguard.
