Upon hearing Cynthia's words, Moe fell silent for a moment before saying, "Wait for me for ten minutes."Although Cynthia was puzzled, she agreed, "Okay."The call ended.Cynthia pondered how to handle this situation. If Joshua had stayed in Jiverton, she would not have cared or paid attention to any of this. However, he had come to Nexuria and planned to work there long-term. Today, he even visited her home. All these events strung together, forcing her to think about countermeasures. Cynthia truly disliked having her life disrupted, and she genuinely did not want any further connection with Joshua.Unbeknownst to her, ten minutes had already passed.Moe sent a photo along with a voice message. "Ms. Yates, this is the plan I've come up with. Take a look."Cynthia opened the picture.When she saw its contents, she was taken aback."We're just pretending. We don't need to be so meticulous, do we?" Cynthia also sent a voice message in response.The picture Moe sent was a scr
In order to help his friend, Yoel specifically requested time off from Joshua.The next afternoon, after work, Cynthia followed Moe's script and met him for their date. Moe greeted her and led her into the restaurant he had booked.It was a place specifically designed for couples to have romantic dates, exuding a stylish and comfortable atmosphere that put people in a good mood.During the meal, Moe looked at Cynthia and said, "Yoel will be here soon."Cynthia was slightly confused. "Why is he coming?""To deliver flowers," Moe replied simply.Before she could fully comprehend, Yoel entered the restaurant carrying a bouquet of flowers. From his angle, he could only see Moe's face and could not see Cynthia's.He could have pre-ordered the flowers, but in order to see the true reaction of the person Moe liked, he intentionally delayed the delivery, coinciding with their dinner.When Yoel saw a woman in professional attire sitting across from Moe, he could not help but smile.So,
Oh?Just an 'oh'?"You know what type of person he is… If he finds out you're pursuing Ms. Yates, he'll definitely take care of you!" Yoel was genuinely afraid that Moe would be in trouble. "They're already divorced." Moe delivered a fatal blow."They're divorced, but the situation is complicated. In any case, just listen to me. For the sake of your future, give up now." Yoel did not know how to explain. "I won't give up.""Moe!""They're divorced, which means Cyn is single now. Since she's single, I have the right to pursue her," Moe said earnestly."Mr. Neal wants to remarry her.""What does that have to do with me?" Moe countered."You know his personality. What he wants, he always gets. If you really pursue Ms. Yates, he has a thousand ways to separate you," Yoel tried to persuade him. Moe had one final statement. "I won't give up on her. If he has any objections, he can talk to me."Yoel was speechless. When he finally found the words, Moe had already turned and
As Yoel thought about Moe's serious attitude and expression just now, he pondered for a moment before asking Joshua, "Why do you want to know?"Joshua emitted a chilling pressure around him.Cynthia was his ex-wife. Why would he not want to know?"Mr. Neal, although you may not like to hear this, I still have to tell you." Yoel was serious. Whether it was Cynthia, Moe, or Joshua, he thought they were good people.Although Joshua was a bit of a scumbag, it was simply because he had not seen things clearly in their relationship.Yoel hoped Cynthia could find true happiness.Joshua's patience was running out. "Say it.""Do you like Ms. Yates?" Yoel blurted out.Joshua held the phone without saying a word. His deep, unfathomable obsidian eyes darkened.Yoel did not wait for long and continued, "If you're not sure whether you like Ms. Yates or not, then there's no need for you to look for them.""What are you trying to say?" Joshua's mood worsened."Ms. Yates is a good person, an
Cyn?Joshua was triggered by that word. Was their relationship already at a point where they could address each other like that?"Yoel." Joshua's patience had run out. Yoel did not dare to drag things out any longer. He knew Cynthia's skills and personality, so he tugged Moe along. "Let them handle their own affairs. We should leave.""You should ask your boss to leave. It's inappropriate for him to harass his ex-wife like this," Moe spoke directly.Yoel stayed silent.Joshua was furious. Ex-husband, ex-wife. Those were the words he least wanted to hear. He glanced at Moe but ultimately pulled Cynthia toward his car, not intending to say anything more."Mr. Neal, let go of Cyn." Moe stepped in and blocked his way, his expression cold.Joshua did not release her.Cynthia twisted her hand and used her agility to break free from his grip. If it were not for the inappropriate setting with people coming and going, she would have wanted to punch him. The emptiness in his hand
After starting the car, Joshua was infuriated to see Cynthia open the rear door and sit in the back seat, assuming her usual bossy demeanor. "Come sit in the front," he exclaimed in frustration. He could not help but notice Cynthia's ability to provoke him every time and make him boil with anger. "Whenever I was with Momo, I always sat in the back. If you don't like it, I can call him back," Cynthia replied calmly as ever. Her words had a tight grip on Joshua. He wanted to call Yoel back, but the thought of him being with Moe at the moment made him hold back.Amidst the whirlwind of emotions, Joshua drove the car away. Cynthia sat in the back seat and received a message from Moe asking about her situation. She replied reassuringly, telling him not to worry too much. Cynthia could not let Moe attract too much attention. Otherwise, it would easily lead back to her if Joshua were to investigate Arch International Group. Without a doubt, if he found out, he would surely say, "I
Yes, that was Joshua's initial thought. He believed that as long as he did not let go, Cynthia could not claim it was over. However, thinking about it and saying it out loud were two different matters, and he would not say it directly. Joshua knew that if he answered that way, it would only anger Cynthia. "No," he replied."If that's the case, don't disturb me anymore." Cynthia still hoped for a peaceful conversation. She did not want to confront Joshua head-on. In many matters, she leaned toward rational decisions. Yet, if she did not talk to Joshua properly, he would likely act according to his own mindset, and conflicts would be inevitable."Why don't you want to reconcile with me? If it's because of Jayleen, I apologize." Joshua looked at her, his aura aggressive. Cynthia remained silent for a moment and then looked at him. "Because we are not the same kind of people."The circles she had grown up in were built on mutual trust. Whether it was her, Mitchell, Jimmy, or the
Moses thought if Joshua had followed his plan step by step without adding his own drama, he might have left a good impression on Cynthia by now. Tsk. How foolish.Old Man Neal listened, confused. "What do you mean by persisting?""He's pressuring Cynthia to reconcile with him, and now he has locked her in his house. If he continues like this, Cynthia will eventually have a falling out with him," Moses replied, mentioning the consequences.Old Man Neal frowned. A falling out? No way! "Grandpa, do you want Cynthia to come back?" Moses quickly changed the topic.Old Man Neal gave him a look, making his thoughts evident. Of course, he wanted it! He thought about it every day."If you want her back, let's throw some obstacles in Joshua's path so that he doesn't have time to disturb Cynthia," Moses suggested, playing with his phone as ideas formed in his mind.Old Man Neal readily agreed.He wanted Cynthia to return, but more importantly, he wanted her to be happy.With Old
