Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 608
As the memory of Matthew leading Cynthia away resurfaced, a hypothesis wormed its way into his mind. Could it be possible that Matthew had spilled the beans about his mental recovery to Cynthia? Well, if he had, it would not matter much to him. Matthew had no proof, and he could easily keep up the act in front of Cynthia. "Joshua," Cynthia called out to him, her tone devoid of the affection she had shown before. It was as though she was addressing an ordinary person. In response, Joshua's grip tightened on the blanket that was covering him, but he gave no visible sign of his discomfort. "Yes, Cynthia?" "Why did you lie?" she asked, getting straight to the point. "Lie?" Joshua feigned confusion, playing the part of the innocent child to the hilt. "You had lunch and dinner yesterday, yet you claimed you hadn't eaten. Why? And then there was that comment about Matthew beating you up at Matthew's place last night. Why would you frame someone like that?" Cynthia's gaze was filled wi

As Cynthia looked at him, her mood grew heavy. Judging by Joshua's current behavior, his personality was becoming somewhat obsessive. Without proper guidance, it might only worsen. It would be a relief if his memory recovered quickly. After all, the old Joshua would not have acted this way. However, as things stood now, Joshua had absolutely no memory of his past, and recovery could only come with time. "Cynthia… Do you think I'm a bad kid?" Joshua began, holding Cynthia's hand with a melancholic and guilty look. Yes, was Cynthia's initial response. However, considering her recent behavior toward him, she realized that some of the blame was indeed on her. He was only a child who had lost his memory and regressed mentally; she should have shown more concern. "As long as you recognize and rectify your mistakes, you won't be a bad kid. However, if you continue behaving this way, you will be," Cynthia declared in a slow, measured voice. "Do you still want me?" "Yes." "Will you

"Is there something you need?" "I heard from the Chairman and Madam that you're currently not home because you're pursuing a girl outside? Is this true?" He had never seen the young master interacting with girls since his childhood until now. Ever since the young master had gone to serve in the military, his home visits became even more infrequent. This news brought doubt to Yunis. "Do you want to know?" Matthew's tone hinted at amusement. Yunis nodded vigorously. "Yes, yes, yes!" How could he not want to know? He was curious and wanted to understand the charm the person who had attracted their young master had. Was she beautiful or fiercely combative? He still remembers a time from their youth when a girl had persistently pursued the young master. Back then, the young master had asked her, "Can you protect me?" At that moment, Yunis felt as though he had lost face. The dignified young master, a male, had actually asked a girl whether she could protect him. This was simpl

Matthew’s eyes flickered slightly, and he did not deny it. "Yes." "You…" Mrs. Quier hesitated for a moment, her demeanor exuding an aura of scholarly grace. "Is the girl you're pursuing really the one described by Mr. Yunis?" "Which one?" "The one who's two meters tall, with abs, and who can easily toss you over her shoulder." Matthew's thin lips pressed into a tight line. Yunis was going to get a stern talking-to when he got back. "I'm not against it, but are you sure about this? She's ten centimeters taller than you." Mrs. Quier started cautiously, trying to choose her words carefully to spare her son's feelings. Many people care about height. Their son had always been proud, righteous, and ready to stand up for what was right. Could he accept someone taller than him? "That's his mate selection criteria. Not mine," Matthew responded, not offering much explanation and not missing the disapproval in his father's gaze. Both parents were momentarily stunned, not expectin

Matthew knew that his parents would discuss his behavior at length after he ended the call, so he did not bother with further explanations. Regardless of his financial standing, he was, in fact, living off others at present. With these thoughts in mind, he opened Mrs. Quier's WhatsApp and sent a message. [I'll bring her home to meet you during the holidays.] In what felt like the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon. After lunch, Cynthia checked on Joshua's condition. Finding his fever had completely subsided, she felt greatly relieved. Joshua, who had not eaten lunch, had been sleeping heavily. Now that his fever had broken, he was starting to feel hungry. "Cynthia, I'm hungry," he mumbled. "There's some food saved for you. Get up and eat," she said. Captain had specifically left the meal. Cynthia had planned to prepare a simple meal for Joshua once he was better or perhaps order takeout. However, Captain had already left a portion for Joshua, ready to be eaten as soon

"Why don't you like him?" Cynthia asked. Joshua stayed silent. The reason was pretty straightforward. If Captain continued to stay close to Cynthia, there was a high chance that she might be taken away by him. Before he could stabilize his relationship with Cynthia, he could not afford to let that happen. "Is it that difficult to answer?" she asked, sensing his hesitation. "Before I answer that question, Cynthia, can I ask you one?" Joshua countered. "Go ahead." "If both Captain and I fell into the sea, and there were many venomous sea snakes in the water, and you could only save one of us, who would you choose to save?" Joshua's question was asked with utmost seriousness. Cynthia was left speechless by this outlandish question. Seeing her hesitation, Joshua pressed on, "You would save Captain, wouldn't you?" "I'd save you," Cynthia said without hesitation. She owed Joshua a life. If such a situation did arise, she would save him first. However, she would still find a w

Watching Joshua, Matthew raised an eyebrow. His deep voice was calm. "What's this about?" "I'm sorry," Joshua began reluctantly. There was no hint of reluctance on his face, however. "I lied to Cynthia yesterday and wronged you. I'm sorry." Matthew smiled slightly. "Is that sincere?" Cynthia was puzzled. What was Captain doing? "Mmhm." Joshua nodded. "To prove that you really are feeling guilty of your actions, summarize The Pilgrim's Progress for me in handwriting. I'll forgive you after you've done that." Matthew walked over and handed him a book. Joshua was at a loss for words. Matthew was truly hard to like. "Captain, what are you doing?" Cynthia's voice was softer. Confusion etched on her face. "Don't you think he needs to be educated? Let him summarize The Pilgrim's Progress and learn." Matthew wanted to see if Joshua would expose himself. The handwriting of an adult differed greatly from that of a child. He was interested to see how Joshua would do this.
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 615
Matthew did not show any signs of anger. Instead, he seemed to think that not only was Joshua a great actor, but he was also quick-witted. If it had not been for his past hurtful actions toward Cynthia, Matthew would have actually admired him. Joshua set down the spoon in his left hand, his voice and gaze betraying no flaws. "I've summarized The Pilgrims' Progress. Can you forgive me for my past mistakes?" "Of course. Admitting your mistakes and correcting them makes you a good child," Matthew responded calmly. Joshua did not really care about that. He just looked at Cynthia excitedly, with a bit of a coquettish tone, "Cynthia, he has forgiven me. Are you still mad at me?" "Not mad. Remember what I told you though. You cannot lie or falsely accuse anyone ever again. Understand?" Cynthia replied gently, her eyes soft yet complex. Joshua nodded. "Yes." "Good." "Cynthia." "Yes?" "Actually, I lied to you about something else." Joshua's gaze darkened slightly, and he hes

Isabella glared at Nick. He actually betrayed her! Caught off guard by Luther's honesty, Nick quickly explained, "Don't look at me like that. Luther forced me to do it. If I didn't agree to his request, he would've spilled my past to my current girlfriend.""Current girlfriend?" Isabella looked puzzled.Nick confessed honestly, "My new girlfriend."Isabella was at a loss for words. Nick was very handsome. His looks could rival top celebrities. Naturally, with his face and charisma, he had no shortage of admirers. That led to a habit of frequently changing girlfriends."I made my rules clear to her. No shady behavior allowed," Nick added quickly, sensing what Isabella was thinking.Hearing this, Isabella did not say much.A moment later, Luther, seeing that their conversation had wrapped up, took Isabella's hand and left. On the way back, he deliberately brought up the topic of proposals."What kind of proposal do you like?" Luther asked."Anything works," Isabella replied
Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal's Gone With The Money Chapter 1501
There was a time when Isabella considered letting Luther propose to her. However, he had not shown any signs that he would or asked for her ring size. There was no need to overthink it; that fool probably had not even thought about it. Nonetheless, Isabella did not blame Luther. After all, she was well aware that everyone expressed love differently. Yet, that was also precisely why she wanted to propose to him, to make him understand just how much she cared."What's wrong?" Annie asked, concerned."I'm just worried," Isabella replied. The ring sizes had been a constant worry for her."Because of what you just mentioned?"Isabella nodded. "Yeah.""Why do you want to propose to him?" Annie looked toward a dark corner. "In most relationships, the boyfriend proposes to the girlfriend, right?""I want him to feel loved," Isabella answered simply.Luther was different from most people; he always suppressed his negative emotions and limited his freedom. He no longer wanted to restr

"No," Luther declined; he still wanted to be the one proposing to her."Okay," Joshua agreed readily.Luther nodded, letting his mind wander. In the following days, Isabella kept checking on the progress, each time being informed that there was no opportunity to measure Luther's finger.In the blink of an eye, three days passed.Cynthia and Matthew had a conversation with Isaiah.Due to prior preparation, Isaiah handled Cynthia and Matthew's questions smoothly. Although they knew Isaiah had not been entirely truthful, based on his attitude toward Sandra, they agreed to the marriage without excessive probing into his relationship with her.As for Isabella, she waited for a few days but had not received any news. Frustrated, she decided to go to Jiverton herself to find Luther.When Joshua heard about her plan, he asked her to give him a bit more time. He assured her he would have the sizes by next Friday at the latest."Really?" Isabella was worried about running out of time.

"Okay." Isaiah already had a plan in mind.After discussing the matter, the two did not say much more. In the following two days, Cynthia and Matthew stayed home while Isabella prepared the details and processes for the proposal.However, after going through the general plan, Isabella suddenly realized a problem. She did not know Luther's ring size. How could she prepare a ring for the proposal without knowing the size?Realizing this issue, she immediately thought of flying to Jiverton to find out but hesitated due to Luther's caution. If she returned so soon after just coming back, he would surely be suspicious. After much contemplation, she came up with a solution—Joshua.When Isabella called, Joshua happened to be having a meal with Luther."I'm not busy, what's up?""I need your help with something," Isabella said, trusting Joshua's abilities, "but Luther can't know about it."Joshua instinctively glanced at Luther.Luther was confused. He glanced at Joshua's phone and

"Quit the act," Matthew said to Isabella, "It's too bad."Isabella stayed quiet. Matthew bluntly stated, "Isaiah currently oversees the company, and the annual revenue has been consistently increasing under his management. He even took a few subsidiaries public.""And?" Isabella inquired."He has a talent for this," Matthew hinted, leaving Isabella puzzled as she struggled to keep up with Matthew's pace."He's barely in his twenties, so there's no rush to get married," Matthew explained. He saw through everything, understanding Isaiah well, adding, "If there were truly such a concern, he could easily establish a company under Sandra's name in the next few years, operate it until it goes public."With Isaiah's abilities and connections, starting a company and taking it public would be a simple task. After the IPO and proper management, Sandra's value would naturally rise. This would effortlessly 'shut their mouths'. Isabella wanted to say something, realizing her dad's words

"That depends on the secret he's keeping," Matthew responded immediately, taking the opportunity to tease Isaiah, "If it's something against our moral values, it'd be hard not to form an opinion, even if we try not to.""He's not that kind of person," Isabella defended Isaiah.Matthew did not respond but just sat there. Their father-son dynamic involved banter and teasing, but when it came down to it, they genuinely cared about each other."He's just worried that you might object to Sandra's background," Isabella continued to spin her tale convincingly.Cynthia and Matthew were confused, both staring at Isabella.Isabella felt a bit uneasy. Something seemed off with her parents' expressions. "What's wrong?""Are you sure Isaiah is worried about this?" Cynthia asked.Why was their beloved daughter so bad at lying? Not catching on, Isabella nodded, "Absolutely.""Setting aside the fact that we've always taught you not to treat people differently based on their family background

"Ah, I see." Isabella breathed a sigh of relief and purposely asked, "Is it possible that Isaiah got to know Sandra through Uncle Yves and Uncle Sean?""It's unlikely," Cynthia denied. Even though they had not arranged any blind dates or rushed Isaiah into marriage, given his personality, he would not seek an introduction from anyone."Whenever you have time, ask Isaiah to bring his girlfriend home," Cynthia said, truly wishing for her children to find happiness. Isabella agreed, "Sure.""Isabella," Cynthia suddenly spoke up.Putting away her plan book, Isabella responded, "Hmm?""Do you think I look stern?" Cynthia sounded gentler than usual, lacking the usual nonchalance.Having been accustomed to being herself, Cynthia found it a bit awkward to take on the role of an elder suddenly. If she left a bad impression on Sandra during their first meeting, it could easily jeopardize Isaiah's relationship."Not at all," Isabella spoke sincerely, looking at Cynthia affectionately. "Y

Isaiah had seen through their plans. He knew that his parents' friends enjoyed watching him banter with Matthew. Every time something was like this, they would eagerly make things difficult for him.Early the next morning, Mitchell and the others began implementing the plan. Initially, Matthew did not suspect anything and thought they genuinely had urgent matters to attend to and brought Cynthia back home first.Considering Luther's upcoming proposal, they decided not to travel the world but instead explored nearby cities. After Mitchell and the others called Matthew aside, Isabella approached Cynthia. Cynthia was surprised to learn about Isabella and Isaiah's plan."Aren't you afraid of getting in trouble?" Cynthia asked."Not at all," Isabella responded very directly, her mind focused on planning her and Luther's engagement. "Isaiah said he can handle this matter, so let's discuss the proposal first. I've thought about several options, but none seem good enough.""Okay," Cynth

Isaiah was surprised."Take her to shoot wedding photos first," Isabella suggested seriously. After giving it some thought, Isaiah said, "I'll ask her during dinner.""Why bother asking?" Isabella thought Isaiah's emotional intelligence was lacking, and Sandra's expectations were too low. "Just pick a few reputable studios and let her choose one she likes."During their conversation, Isabella noticed that Sandra was slightly anticipating a wedding, although she had refused for some unknown reason. If she was not truly opposed to weddings, there should not be an issue with pre-wedding photos."If you give it directly to her, she'll probably say she doesn't need it," Isabella coined. She could see through people and was quite clever.Isaiah clearly did not consider this possibility."Take a look at these studios. My friends suggested them," Isabella had already made the selections and recommended them to him. "Weren't you against my decision before?" Isaiah, not understanding h
