Cynthia could not understand why Jayleen was so in love with Joshua and, even more so, why Jayleen needed to prove something to her, especially after already having won him over.It was truly outrageous.Jayleen's eyes showed a determination to take a risk.Just as she was about to do something, Cynthia spoke up, "If you're thinking of setting me up by tripping or bumping into me, don't bother. There's a security camera over there."Jayleen looked over and suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.If Joshua were to investigate later and find out that she had done something intentionally, all her efforts would have been in vain.Cynthia ignored Jayleen and left with her things.As soon as she got home, Cynthia received several messages from Jimmy.[Little Jerry: Holy crap! Cynthia, guess what I found out?][Little Jerry: Your future ex-husband's lover is something else.][Little Jerry: It's insane!]Cynthia put down her laptop and sat on the sofa, calling Jimmy directly, "Did
Jayleen reached for the old phone that she had left under her pillow. When she saw the number that had not contacted her for almost a month, her heart started pounding, and her lips turned pale.Jaylen wanted to hang up the call, but she still answered the call tremblingly when she thought of the consequences.With a shaky voice, she greeted, "Hello...""Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" The voice on the other end was soft, but it terrified her.Jayleen shuddered and stammered, "I was in the bathroom and didn't hear it.""How's the situation progressing?""They still have thirteen days of the cooling-off period left. After that, they'll get the divorce certificate.""Are you sure Joshua will marry you after the divorce?" The man's voice was calm and pleasant, but his tone was intimidating."I'm sure." Jayleen gulped, her forehead covered in sweat. "He has already told his family about this. Once he gets the divorce certificate, he will marry me.""Okay." The ma
"Did he really say that?""Did Mrs. Neal and Mr. Neal fight?""I feel like they're getting a divorce."Yoel's gaze drifted over to them.Those three were so sharp. The girl who said they were getting a divorce could not believe it and covered her mouth in shock. "No way...did I guess right?"Yoel did not show it, but he was shocked by their speculation. "Mr. and Mrs. Neal has a strong relationship. As a member of the secretary department, we should always remember not to pay too much attention to Mrs. Neal's personal life."If these few people knew that Mr. and Mrs. Neal were getting a divorce, the entire headquarters would know by tomorrow. They were professionally strong in confidentiality but as quick as lightning when it concerned gossip.Yoel let out a quiet sigh and continued working.Joshua took over an hour from the company to Cynthia's house, and it was already half past noon by the time he arrived. Cynthia was eating when she heard the knocking and went to ope
Joshua emphasized, "She's not a third person, and I didn't cheat on you."Cynthia remained silent, feeling like it was a futile conversation."It's up to you to believe what you want," Cynthia responded firmly, convinced that Joshua had indeed cheated on her. After all, emotional cheating was still cheating. "I'll say it one last time. If you or Jayleen come to me again over your issues, I won't hesitate to expose your affair to the public. You need to consider whether you can handle the backlash.""What about you?" Joshua interrogated, his gaze locked onto her."What about me?" Cynthia frowned, annoyed."About you and Mitchell, and about you going to the hotel with Thomas in Nexuria. Would you have gone with them if I hadn't been there?"Cynthia was beyond angry. She tried to reason with Joshua, yet he kept bringing up hypothetical scenarios.Pushing him away, Cynthia replied with a sharp tongue, "I must've been out of my mind if I thought I could reason with a dog."Joshua fe
Annoying! This was simply annoying! Cynthia had just finished cleaning up after eating when she saw a message on her WhatsApp.[Mrs. Neal, Mr. Neal hasn't eaten yet, and the food will take a while to arrive. Can you please take him out for a meal?]Cynthia replied, [No, I can't.]Yoel responded, [I know you're kind-hearted, and you'll definitely agree.]Cynthia responded, [Even if I'm kind-hearted, you can't morally pressure me to take a dog to a restaurant for a meal.]Yoel was speechless.After silently cursing at his luck, Yoelsent a message to Joshua, [Your lunch will be delivered at 3 pm.]Joshua was confused by the message.Before he could respond, Cynthia's voice came through.She held her laptop and said naturally, "Yoel wants me to take you out for a meal. Are you interested?""I don't eat food that's too heavy." Joshua was picky about his food, but he could not help wondering what Yoel was up to.He stood up, adjusted his suit, and walked over to Cynthia, sayin
"Only cleaning toilets?" Yoel was surprised. If this were in the past, they would have had their bonus deducted.Joshua could not help but feel annoyed when he heard the word 'toilets' as it reminded him of Cynthia asking him to dine in the bathroom. "Do you want to clean the toilets too?" Joshua asked."It's probably better to leave this glorious task to the department managers," Yoel smiled and declined.The rest of the team was shocked.How could it be glorious?Joshua's mind was occupied with Cynthia's act, and he did not want to talk to them any longer, so he told them to leave."Mr. Neal, are you having lunch now, or are you going to wait for dinner? The lunch we ordered is still fresh, and if you need it, I can get it now," Yoel asked after everyone had left.Joshua glanced at him. "You're in charge of cleaning the toilets on this floor for the next two months.""Mr. Neal….""Two months.""Yes, Mr. Neal..." Yoel did not dare argue.He returned to his office, still c
If Cynthia were to beat them up, they would use the footage from that person's phone to sue her. Cynthia did not think too much about it. To avoid trouble, she turned around and ran without arguing with them. "Grab her!" "The client said we must break her limbs." The voices came from behind.Cynthia ran very fast but did not run toward home because she knew that if she did, these people would follow her past the gate and cause trouble for her in the future. However, the community itself was located on the outskirts of Jiverton, and there were few commercial areas nearby. As she thought about it, she ran toward a larger open space with a surveillance camera."Why aren't you running anymore?" "I didn't expect you to be such a fast runner!" "I'm exhausted!" The group of people cursed and grumbled.Cynthia was not even out of breath, as her speed was no different from walking. "Who sent you here?" She only offended two people: Jayleen and Thomas. Thomas was in the
"Just now, Mrs. Neal got hit with a baseball bat in the head." Yoel made up a story, but he sounded serious. Then, slowing down the car, he added, "I can't tell if she's bleeding."Upon hearing this, Joshua instinctively looked out the window and was shocked to find the scene across the empty lot. Six baseball bats were simultaneously aiming at Cynthia. Each person appeared fierce as if they wanted to beat her to death.Before his brain could fully process the situation, he blurted out, "Stop the car!""Yes, Mr. Neal." Yoel immediately pulled over to the side of the road.Joshua opened the car door and rushed across the road. Luckily, there were not many cars passing by at the location. Otherwise, it could have been dangerous.Yoel stayed behind. As a competent personal assistant, he learned not to hold Joshua back. After all, he was not good at fighting, so it was better for him to wait here for Joshua and Cynthia to return.Cynthia was in the midst of the fierce fight and did
