Cynthia’s gaze fell on his phone. “Your phone is worth more than that.”
“In that case, 8314 USD,” Joshua replied.
“Joshua!
Cynthia also knew that 8314, meant “I love you forever‘ in cyber terms, and she was getting annoyed.
“Hmm?” Joshua lowered his voice, his sharp and handsome face maintaining a serious expression.
Nevertheless, Cynthia could not resist his charm when he behaved like this, subtly alluring. She kept her phone aside and locked eyes with him, questioning, “Are you sure the damages from last night only amount to 8314 USD?”
“Mm,” Joshua responded softly.
Cynthia agreed, “okay”
Joshua, setting aside their previous issues, was undeniably an alluring man. His presence satisfied her severe case of ‘looks addiction and cultivated her fondness for a man’s voice, hands, dressing in formal attire or shirts, legs, and so on
In other words, Joshua’s physical attributes were off the charts, surpassing celebrities in the entertainment industry.
In the past, Cynthia often came across a joke in the comments section when she watched dramas. As long as the villain was good–looking, one’s morals would be thrown out the window.
At that time, Cynthia did not think the villains were particularly handsome after finishing an entire series; they were just average. However, alarm bells started ringing in Cynthia’s mind as she looked at Joshua, who seemed like a different person,
Joshua had not done even a fraction of the things those villains did to her. Still, his extraordinary appearance, captivating voice, and excessive charm made it easy to forget the hart he inflicted before.
Joshua observed Cynthia’s transition from nonchalance to wariness, maintaining his composed expression while feeling puzzled inside.
He had not done anything that could warrant such a reaction from her.
“Ken, Cynthia called out.
Kendrick, preoccupied with thoughts of the surveillance footage, snapped back to attention upon hearing Cynthia’s voice. He immediately composed his demeanor before entering the study and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Mr. Neal calculated the total losses you caused last night, and it amounts to 8314 USD. You should transfer the money to him,
Cynthia informed him.
8314 USD?
Kendrick frowned slightly. Afraid of mishearing, he double–checked with joshua, “Mr. Neal, are you sure it’s only 8314 USD?”
After carefully observing Joshua’s furniture and appliances, which were mostly smart devices, Kendrick could not believe the damage done was so cheap.
“Yes. Only 8314 USD,” Joshua replied calmly, his expression unchanged.
Convinced that there was indeed minimal damage, Kendrick proceeded to transfer 8314 USD to Joshua. What he did not know was that earlier in the day, Joshua had already replaced the damaged items in his house and made subtle adjustments, even to the tile with a slight mark.
“All done.” Kendrick showed Cynthia.
Once Joshua received the payment, Cynthia saw no son to stay.
“If you remember anything else that needs compensation, feel free to contact Ken anytime.”
“Okay,” Joshua responded.
2/2
Although he did not understand how he had managed to upset Cynthia again, Joshua was certain that she did not hold him in high regard at the moment, or she would not have mentioned contacting Kenneth instead.
Joshua did not try to hold them back any longer, afraid of creating a further negative impression.
Later, Cynthia bid farewell to Kendrick, indicating that he could leave
Kendrick looked at her, his expression asiding, ‘Don’t I still need to apologize?”
Cynthia’s gaze indicated that she had already done it for him.
Kendrick remained quiet.
What about the surveillance footage?
“Cyn, I need to use the restroom.” Kendrick tried to buy some time, still contemplating how to ask Joshua to delete the surveillance footage.
