The next morning in Nexuria, Cynthia woke up early. She had washed and dried the clothes she had changed out of yesterday. Then, she got dressed and waited for Joshua in the living room.
Half an hour later, they finished breakfast and set off together. They w
were heading to a real gun shooting club in Nexuria, where they needed to obtain the appropriate introduction letter and become members.
Joshua had already taken care of these preparations, and by the time they arrived at the shooting club, an hour had passed.
Joshua was familiar with the club’s manager, who greeted him with a smile, saying, “Long time no see, Joshua.”
“It has indeed been a while,” Joshua replied as they chatted.
The manager’s gaze fell on Cynthia
Joshua’s eyes darkened slightly. “This is
Cynthia interrupted and introduced herself, “Nice to meet you, I’m Cynthia Yates, a friend of Joshua’s.”
Her intuition told her that if she did not interrupt him, Joshua would definitely say something she did not want to hear.
Joshua glanced at her. He did want to introduce her as his wife.
“Please follow me, both of you,” the manager said with a meaningful look, his gaze shifting between the two.
He then warmly invited them, “We’ll have professionals to teach you shooting. Come with me
Both of them followed in silence.
They arrived at the shooting range.
Cynthia and Joshua were each assigned a professional instructor.
The manager, Michael Tanz, was Yosef’s cousin.
Seeing Cynthia’s serious dedication to learning, he whispered to Joshua, “You and Ms. Yates aren’t just friends, are you?”
Michael had not seen Joshua with another female friend before.
“It’s indeed not just a simple friendship,” Joshua, who had been to shooting ranges many times before and was very knowledgeable about them, replied
Michael became interested and asked, “Oh?
“She’s my ex–wife,” Joshua said, refraining from saying she was his wife at the thought of her reaction.
Michael’s eyebrows raised in surprise and disbelief. “When did you get married? Why didn’t I know? Does Yosef know?”
“He knows,” Joshua replied casually.
“This is going too far! You didn’t even tell me when you got married. Do you still consider me a friend? I didn’t even get to attend your wedding,” Michael expressed his emotions, feeling hurt..
However, what bothered Michael the most was that such a major event as Joshua’s marriage had not been reported by the
media
It was not pommial!
“We didn’t have a wedding,” Joshua said, pausing his actions with the gun, a hint of complexity in his expression.
Joshua had no intention of elaborating further. Instead, after listening to the explanations from the professionals, he looked toward Cynthia, who was also done.
Seeing this situation, Michael no longer brought up their marriage and divorce. Then, he asked, “So you’re just here to have
fun?
“No, we’re here for a shooting competition,” Joshua answered, gazing at the target fifty meters away.
Michael’s lip twitched. He felt that this guy
Cynthia, engaging her in conversation had a mischievous streak in him. Later, he left Joshua alone and walked over to
“Ms. Yates, let me help you with your shooting, Joshua has been practicing shooting since he was young and holds th shooting records in our club.”
“It’s fine,” Cynthia replied calmly.
“Are you sure you don’t need my help?” Michael was quite protective of delicate young ladies. He could not bear to see someone as beautiful and elegant as Cynthia lose.
Especially to Joshua, that scoundrel!
