Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal’s Gone With The Money

Chapter 567

hapter 567 When Cynthia saw Shirley holding a baseball bat and glaring at Joshua, she was taken aback. “Shirley, what are you doing…” Shirley panicked and quickly hid the baseball bat behind her back, stammering, “Nothing…” She strongly suspected that Joshua had deliberately orchestrated this situation just to make Cynthia think she was going to hit him! How infuriating. “Shirley was teaching me how to deal with bad people when I’m home alone,” Joshua chimed in, being very cooperative and acting innocent. Shirley was left speechless. Cynthia approached them and reassured joshua, “Even if I have something to attend to and can’t be with you, I’ll have bodyguards to protect you. You won’t be alone.” “Thank you, Cynthia.” Joshua softened when talking to Cynthia, addressing her by name, “Cynthia…” Cynthia responded, “Hmm?” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Can I not call you Auntie?” Joshua asked. Cynthia was puzzled. “Shirley said you’re not my sister, and it’s inappropriate to call you that, but… I don’t want to call you “Auntie’,” Joshua expressed, leaving out the rest of his thoughts. His intuition told him that if he said everything, Shirley might become unhappy. Cynthia did not mind much and replied, “Okay.” Shirley felt compelled to explain further, “He’s a little older than you, and even though his m ental state has regressed, it just doesn’t feel right.” “Is there a better term of address?” Cynthia asked sincerely.. Shirley coughed lightly, “How about ‘Auntie’?” Cynthia was taken aback. Were they really related?

“Just think about it. If he keeps calling you this way, he’ll remember this time as something sweet and warm when he recovers. his memories. But if he calls you Auntie, he’ll feel embarrassed when he recovers his memories,” Shirley argued, not wanting Joshua to be so close to Cynthia. Calling an ex-wife ‘Auntie’ was definitely asking for trouble! Cynthia asked, “What if it takes him a long time to recover?” “Well…” Shirley was at a loss for words. She did not know why, but she had a feeling that Joshua would recover quickly. After all, a person with a sharp mind, who is strategic in the business world, and who never made mistakes should have at powerful recovery function in their brain. Shirley did not know why, but she was sure. “He can call me whatever he wants. It’s just a title,” Cynthia said as she did not particularly mind. “Oh,” Shirley responded. “Silly girl,” Cynthia raised her hand and ruffled Shirley’s hair. In the past, she also forced Jinny not to address Cynthia so Chapter 56/ intimately. Joshua’s eyes lit up when he saw Cynthia ruffle Shirley’s head, offering his head too. Cynthia and Shirley looked at Joshua in confusion. Shirley asked, “What are you doing?” Joshua remained silent, pursing his lips as he looked at Cynthia, waiting to be patted on the head. The atmosphere became tense. 2/2 Shirley’s mind quickly made the connection to the earlier incident, and a hint of jealousy and competitiveness arose within her. “Do you want Cynthia to pat your head?” “Is it okay?” Joshua asked softly, his eyes filled with hope. Even Cynthia could not help but notice the stark contrast. He had the same face and the same eyes, but his expression, gaze, and tone were completely

different. It was as if Joshua had become a different person entirely. It was truly amazing how the Creator designed human beings. “No! It’s not allowed!” Shirley held onto Cynthia’s arm, not willing to indulge him. “Letting you call Cynthia by her name was already a big compromise. Don’t push your luck!”
