Chapter 380

“Why are you here?” Joshua did not answer her question but instead asked what he wanted to know

Cynthia remained silent, maintaining her indifferent demeanor, emanating an icy aura that kept people

at a distance

This kind of conversation weighed heavily on Joshua’s heart. Yet, even so, he still wanted to be with

Cynthia.

It was as if, by being together, his aching heart could find a momentary peace, even though it still hurt a

bit.

It was still better than having nothing at all.

The two of them remained in a standoff, neither speaking further.

Time continued to pass them by.

Cynthia did not enjoy the tense atmosphere, and without a word, she turned to leave

However, Joshua grabbed her am and held on tight

“What the hell do you want?” Cynthia could not understand his behavior.

Joshua did not release his grip, and his eyes darkened as he said, “You still haven’t answered my

question.”

“Blind date,” Cynthia replied simply.

“With Mitchell?”

“It’s none of your concern.”

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll go to your house every day to propose.” Joshua did not know why he said that,

but he continued, ” You can stop me outside your door, but after a while, prople of Nexuria will find out.”

Cynthia turned around, completely baffled at why she had never realized how shameless Joshua could

be.

Seeing her displeasure in her eyes pricked Joshua’s heart, but he still did not let go.

“It’s not with Mitchell. My grandpa asked me to come bere,” Cynthia said, not wanting to engage in a

pointless argument

with him.

Joshua frowned.

Before he could ask anything else, Cynthia used her other hand to remove his hand from her arm.

She was not angry but spoke to him calmly, “I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but if it’s just to

deceive that person, there’s no need to go to such lengths. I’ll ask Jayleen to lie to them.”

In the end, Jayleen was the informant on their side. Whatever Jayleen said, the other side would

believe.

At least, that was the case for the time being

“I have something to attend to. I’ll go now,” Cynthia concluded.

This time, Joshua did not attempt to pull her back and watched her go inside.

He stood there for a long time until Yusef approached him, gradually bringing his thoughts back

“What’s wrong? Yosef noticed his unusual expression and asked.

Joshua did not elaborate with Yosef and simply asked, “What do you know about the Yates family’s Old

Man Yates?”

“Shirley’s grandfather?”

“Mhon.”

“Not much. He’s said to be a rather old–fashioned man who likes to have the young ones do things

according to his will. Why are you asking about him?” Yosef replied.

“It’s nothing. I’m heading back now.” Joshua already had his attention elsewhere.

“What about me?

“Figure it out.”

Yosef immediately got frustrated. They had agreed to accompany each other, but Joshua was leaving

halfway.

Was this how good friends treated each other?

Joshua could not care less and left the car for Yosef. Then, he walked out and called Yorl to pick him

up.

Upon Yoel’s arrival, Joshua immediately assigned him a task.

“Set a meeting with Old Man Yates.”

Yoel froze.

Cynthia’s grandfather?
