Chapter 621 Cynthia wanted to ask more, but given Sean’s cument state, she lmnew she would not get anything else. She decided to end the call In the next two days, she took good care of Joshua, who was well-behaved. A few days from New Year’s Eve dinner, Felix, who had previously said he would come to the capital, arrived. “Do you want to go to the airport with me to pick up your father or wait for me at home?” Cynthia asked him, letting him make the decision Joshua replied promptly. “I’ll go with you.” He did not want his father of his to come.
However, given the current circumstances, he could not stop it. It was better to go with Cynthia, so his father would have no opportunity to say anything bad about him. After Cynthia agreed, she took him to the airport. In the car, Joshua seemed somewhat ill at ease. “Cynthia, is my dad a very serious person?” “Not at all, he’s a nice person, and he loves you very much,” Cynthia answered truthfully. Yeah right. That was Joshua’s first reaction Judging from the previous phone call, it was clear to Joshua that his father was not an easy man to deal with. “Is he coming to take me home? I don’t want to go home. I want to stay with you,” Joshua asked again, his eyes pure and clear. Cynthia paused. By now, Joshua’s m ental age had reached seventeen. If she introduced him to his family members and recounted some past events, his exceptional acting skills would surely dispel any doubts. Perhaps, he really could return home for the New Year’s Eve dinner. “Cynthia,” Joshua called out to her again. “He’s coming to see you,” Cynthia replied, deciding to discuss it with Felix later.
Upon reaching the airport, Cynthia instructed the driver to park at the side, and before long, Felix emerged from the terminal. Cynthia stepped out to greet him. Once the driver had helped Felix stow away his luggage, they all boarded the car again. Joshua sat next to Felix while Cynthia sat in the front passenger seat. “Is there no greeting for me? Since when did you become so impolite?” Felix asked, observing Joshua’s aloof demeanor and reluctance to speak Joshua remained silent. As expected, he did not like this man. “Still no greeting?” Felix probed again. Cynthia turned to look at him, and seeing this, Joshua reluctantly said, “Dad.” “Good boy,” Felix replied, a faint smile gracing his lips. Joshua’s mind was in a whirl. The man was inscrutable. Should a father not be stern and serious toward his son? Why was he being affectionate and saying ‘good boy’? “Uncle Felix, I’ve booked a restaurant for us. I will brief you about Joshua’s condition when we are having dinner,” Cynthia said. Felix agreed. “Alright.” For the rest of the journey, Felix carried on an intermittent conversation with Joshua. Regardless of Joshua’s memory loss, Felix’s attitude toward him had not changed.
