Chapter 8
After replying to the messages, Cynthia tried to call Mitchell but could not get through. Knowing that she had to go to the old villa tonight and not wanting any surprises, she sent him at message. “Text me when you arrive in Jiverton. We’ll meet tomorrow.” If Mitchell came looking for her on his own, she would be at a disadvantage. It would be better for her to take the initiative to talk to him. She sighed inwardly. She could have refused more easily if it were old man Yates, but it had to be Mitchell…
Time passed quickly. By the time she got dressed and was
ready to leave, it was almost six o’clock. After receiving a call from Mr. Walters, she quickly left the house. When she got into the car, she saw Joshua was there as well.
He was still wearing the same suit from earlier that day. His disheveled hair framed his cool, indifferent face, giving him an air of disarrayed beauty. Cynthia did not start a conversation with him, and the car smoothly headed toward the old villa.
As they were almost there, Joshua finally broke the silence, considering what they had to discuss that day. “If Mom asks. you later why you don’t like me, what are you going to say?”
“I’ll tell her the truth.”
“Cynthia.”
“Hm?”
“If you mention the Jayleen incident, my parents and grandfather won’t agree to our divorce.” Joshua’s handsome face took on a colder expression, and his eyes were covered in
a layer of frost.
Cynthia thought his concern was baseless. “Who said I was going to mention Jayleen?”
Joshua paused, a suspicion hanging in his mind. “What do you mean?”
“I simply don’t like you.” Cynthia explained it once more, speaking casually, “I find you uninteresting and not worth it.
Right now, all she could think about was Mitchell’s arrival. She did not have the energy to engage in a battle of wits with Joshua. Joshua wanted to believe that she was just being spiteful, but Cynthia’s reaction told him that she was serious and she truly did not like him anymore.
The thought left him feeling irritable. An indescribable emotion weighed heavily on his heart, lingering for a long time.
“Master Joshua, Mrs. Neal, we’ve arrived,” Mr. Walters announced, opening the car door.
Joshua and Cynthia got out of the car. Just as he was about to remind Cynthia that they had to put on a show for his family before bringing up the divorce, she calmly took his arm and said, “Let’s go.”
Joshua could not help but wonder if she had been pretending to be clueless around him all this time.
They entered the old villa, walked through the courtyard, and headed to the main building. The Old Neal Manor was similar to a hacienda, with a vast building area. By the time they arrived, everyone else had already gathered.
It was just a small family dinner. Aside from the two of them, only their grandparents, parents, and the housekeeper were present. As they entered, everyone greeted them warmly. Mrs. Neal Senior, in particular, pulled Cynthia to sit beside her, and the two of them chatted happily.
Observing the scene, Joshua’s brow furrowed ever so slightly. His intuition told him that getting a divorce might not be so easy after all.
