On that day, Cynthia had just finished work and returned home when she received a call from Felix.

The conversation, as usual, revolved around Joshua.

“How is Joshua doing? Felix sounded gently, trying not to pressure Cynthia

Cynthia truthfully replied, “Sean said his condition is still unstable, and they’ll update me once it

stabilizes.”

“Old Man Neal asked me if Joshua would come back for the New Year. If he can’t recover before the

New Year, I might need you to help,” Felix continued.

“Okay,” Cynthia agreed.

After discussing a few more things, Felix hung up the phone.

Cynthia sat on the couch, gripping her phone, feeling heavy.

After much consideration, she decided to make a phone call to Sean.

Sean answered the call while discussing something with Joshua When he saw it was Cynthia, he

frowned. Nonetheless, he still stood up and walked to a window before answering, “Hello, Ms. Yates.”

“How is Joshua’s condition?” Cynthia asked.

“It’s still unstable,” Sean replied.

“I want to know the details,” Cynthia insisted.

Sean glanced at the silent Joshua and felt a headache coming on. “I suggest it’s better for you not to

know.”

“What’s wrong with him?” Cynthia sensed something was up.

Sean remained silent.

Sean did not know how to describe Joshua’s condition. However, one thing he was confident of was

that keeping Joshua here any longer would be detrimental to both him and the base.

In fact, it would be very detrimental!

Cynthia’s heart sank when she did not hear Sean’s reply, and she instinctively thought something had

happened.

“Come see for yourself,” Sean said before hanging up the phone.

Cynthia did not hesitate, grabbing her phone and car keys before quickly leaving the house.

As for Sean, after pocketing his phone, he approached Joshna with a smile, saying gently, “Your sister

is coming to pick you up and take you home soon. Are you happy

“Your smile makes me suspect you’re up to no good.” Joshua stared at Sean. He no longer had the

cold demeanor. Instead, there seemed to be a hint of childlike innocence.

“How could that be? Am I that kind of person? Sean maintained his smile.

Joshua replied, “You are.”

remained silent. As expected, he could not bring himself to like someone like Joshua

Even before the incident, Joshua was difficult to deal with. Yet, with his memory loss and intellectual

regression to the level of a five-year-old, he could still infuriate him.

They were just incompatibile!

At exactly nine in the evening, Cynthia arrived at the base.

Sean had been waiting outside and greeted her politely, “Ms. Yates, you’re here.”

“Where’s Joshua?”

“He’s inside.”

“What happened to him?”

“Nothing major.” Sean retrieved a document he had been carrying and handed it to Cynthia “If you want

to see him, you must sign this document first.”

Cynthia took the document and quickly scanned the two pages.

There were two highlighted points

First, if she met Joshua, she must take him awa

Second, the person responsible for talang Joshua away would be held accountable for any losses

suffered by the party involved, including but not limited to damages caused by Joshua during his time

there and the cost of not fulfilling promises made to Joshua.
