Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal’s Gone with The Money by Little Treasure

Chapter 657

After the chess game ended, Cynthia cut off contact with Joshua. She hesitated whether to call Old Man Neal but decided against it as she thought it would be better to call him the next day to avoid any suspicion.

Cynthia did not want Old Man Neal to feel uncomfortable or blame himself if he thought Joshua had asked her to call. It would be more natural to wish him well on the New Year without any ulterior motives,

Cynthia put aside those ideas for the time being and went downstairs.

The next day, Cynthia, Shirley, and Jonathan went to the Addams family to have a meal and returned to Old Yates Manor for dinner. The Yates family gathering was small, and surprisingly, Old Man Yates did not mention anything negative about Cynthia.

The family enjoyed the reunion dinner together, full of joy and laughter. After dinner, Cynthia called Old Man Neal to send her greetings. He was overjoyed to receive her call, like a child, and showered her with blessings and good wishes, not letting go of the conversation for almost an hour before finally hanging up reluctantly.
