Yoel did not dare to babble anymore and drove the car obediently. When Joshua emphasized his request for the second time, Yoel still conveyed his request to the others. After arriving at the airport, Yoel held the ticket and kindly reminded Joshua, "Mr. Neal, are you really planning to leave Nexuria?"Joshua frowned slightly and felt that his personal assistant was annoying. "The message you asked me to convey to them is likely to make them think that Mrs. Neal has offended you," Yoel said, trying his best to help Joshua to see through his true feelings."What if they force Mrs. Neal into a dead end when you are not in Nexuria?"Joshua froze.Yoel continued in a serious tone, "You know better than anyone else about this circle. Once people know you're targeting Mrs. Neal, other big and small players will follow suit. In the long run, Mrs. Neal might..." Yoel let out a loud sigh, looking troubled. Joshua frowned but quickly recovered his composure."If you're so worrie
The castle was very clean, with a dedicated servant cleaning it daily. Except for her mother's room, all the rooms, including hers, were spotlessly clean. Shirley watched as Cynthia wiped their mother's things one by one, standing at the door and saying, "No one has entered this room except for me. Dad also instructed the servant not to clean this room, but don't worry, I came back every weekend to clean it.""Thank you," Cynthia replied with a hint of warmth in her eyes.Her father bought the castle when he married her mother. He said she was the most beautiful princess in the world and princesses should live in a castle. Until now, she still remembered everything they had experienced here."Cynthia?" Shirley called her.Cynthia put down the photo album and looked at her sideways. "What's the matter?""Dad already knows it was Timothy," Shirley said, a little worried because Cynthia had not met him for three whole days. "He said he supports you no matter what, and he also sai
Cynthia only gave her father a vague explanation the other day at the hospital, and he wanted to know all the details of what happened in the past two years. Cynthia responded calmly, "There's nothing much to say. I was just a substitute. Now that the game is over, we're going our separate ways."Mr. Yates was taken aback.A substitute… "Why didn't you tell me?" Mr. Yates asked."I'm not a child. I can handle these things. Besides, he's handsome," Cynthia answered.Mr. Yates did not feel relieved by her words. On the contrary, he felt even more uneasy."Cyn...""If there's nothing else, let's stop here. I didn't sleep well last night, so I need to catch up on some rest," Cynthia interrupted, not wanting to say more."Actually, there's one more thing...""What is it?""Her daughter works at the Yates Group. You might run into her."When Mr. Yates said this, he dared not even look into Cynthia's eyes. In fact, he was terrified to look at them.Cynthia knew who he was refe
[Because of your agreement with him, he has not contacted me or come to see me, but now I really need him.]Cynthia looked at the message from the new number, and the light in her eyes became brighter. The mistress was telling the actual wife that she really needed her husband. This was just ridiculous. [You don't want to see two people dead, do you?][Mrs. Neal, I'm pregnant with Joshua's child!]Jayleen bombarded her with multiple messages, each bringing bigger news than before.Especially the last message when she said she was pregnant with Joshua's child.Cynthia was not in the mood to entertain Jayleen, but the woman was simply too shameless. Cynthia replied, [Jayleen, do you think that having the child of a married man is something to be proud of?] Cynthia added, [If you bother me again, I don't mind exposing your affair online.] As soon as she sent that, Jayleen stopped responding.Despite Joshua being a scumbag, he always kept his promises. Hence, Cynthia dec
"Got it," Joshua said before hanging up the phone. He knew they would not accept Jayleen. Whether it was his parents or his grandfather, they only acknowledged Cynthia. After suppressing his emotions, Joshua left according to the location Cynthia had sent and picked up a random car from the company to get there. When he arrived, Cynthia was already there.After a few days of not seeing each other, Joshua felt an indescribable feeling. Cynthia did not seem to be doing badly after leaving him, unlike those girls who broke up and vented all over the internet."Did Jayleen say anything else to you besides the child?" Joshua was direct and did not bother with any small talk.Cynthia looked for the call recording and handed the phone over to Joshua.He glanced at her before listening to the recording. Jayleen obviously sounded unwell, and his heart tightened. Without much thought, he blamed Cynthia, "Why didn't you contact me immediately?"Cynthia asked with confusion, "Why sh
Joshua instructed her, promising, "Wait for me, I'll be there immediately. Don't worry.""But...what about you and Mrs. Neal?" "I'll handle it," Joshua said with determination, ending the call. Then, he handed the phone back to Cynthia with a heavy heart. "I have to cancel our previous agreement. Jayleen needs me now, and I must return and take care of her."Cynthia did not say anything, just staring at him. Joshua had broken his promise for the first time since she knew him."If you're not going to divorce me because of this, I have plenty of ways to make you agree," Joshua said.Cynthia did not care about those things anymore, she just wanted to end this absurd and disgusting marriage."Just one question, Joshua," Cynthia said calmly."What is it?" Joshua asked, looking up at her."Do you really like Jayleen so much?" Cynthia asked."Yes," Joshua admitted."Do you like her enough to keep hurting me again and again?" Cynthia pressed.Joshua did not answer.Cynthia did n
"You also said she got into trouble because she was looking for you. We haven't divorced yet, and I can perceive her action as you two having an affair. In other words, she's the other person in our marriage." Cynthia's words were direct.She believed the person who caused trouble should be punished by the law, but she would not pity or sympathize with Jayleen.Joshua's gaze was cold.Cynthia was not affected by his presence and continued, "She got into trouble, and you bear the responsibility."If Joshua had divorced her when he received that call, he would have married Jayleen as soon as she returned, and there would be no need for an agreement.He was scum, yet he put the blame on her.Joshua stared at her for a long time and finally uttered, "The biggest regret of my life is thinking that you were as understanding as her and marrying you."Cynthia retorted, "Funny, the biggest regret of my life is marrying you."With a chilling gaze, Joshua got up and left the cafe. The mom
"Probably not…this month," Jimmy said."What do you mean?" Cynthia asked."They're probably not available. Some have planned trips with their girlfriends, some are meeting up with online friends, and others are going to visit their significant other's parents," Jimmy replied. Cynthia was surprised."Don't you know?" Jimmy asked."What should I know?" Cynthia was confused."Of our seven dwarfs, only Mitchell, Gaby, and I are still single. The rest are secretly dating, like you. You got married!" Jimmy complained.Jimmy's emotions grew more and more intense as he spoke. Then, he remembered that Cynthia was getting a divorce and felt bad. "Cynthia, I..."Sob, sob, sob.He was hitting Cynthia's sore spot again."Did they really start dating?" Cynthia's previous emotions vanished, and she became a different person."Didn't you see the group messages?" Jimmy asked.Cynthia shook her head.She did not spend much time on her phone and only occasionally checked the group, where
