Chapter 171

With only family members present, Cynthia knew that the purpose of that night had finally

arrived. Old Man Neal, Felix, and Daphne were likely to persuade her to postpone the

divorce.

“Cynthia, have a seat,” Daphne greeted her with gentleness and elegance, showing that

she genuinely liked Cynthia.

Cynthia walked over and took a seat.

Then, Old Man Neal and Daphne began their discussion.

Felix, as before, sat on the side reading a newspaper while Joshua stood there like an

unwanted orphan with no one to care for him.

“What are you doing?” Old Man Neal grew angry when he saw Joshua sitting beside him.

“Is this where you’re supposed to sit? Go over there!”

Joshua was annoyed but did not complain and moved to the other side.

Unexpectedly, he also faced disdain from the other side.

“Cynthia and I don’t want to be near you. Keep your distance.”

Joshua could tell they disapproved of him because of the impending divorce from Cynthia.

Without

saying much, he conscientiously moved to sit next to Felix, finally avoiding being driven

away.

“Still haven’t managed to change Cynthia’s mind?” Felix asked casually, enjoying himself

as he held the newspaper, adopting the demeanor of a spectator.

Joshua did not answer him.

They were so annoying.

“Did you pay a visit to Cynthia’s family?”

“No.”

Upon hearing that, Felix finally showed some emotional response. He set aside the

newspaper and glanced at Joshua. “Joshua, you’re not very efficient in handling things, are

you?”

“You’re saying as if you were pretty quick when pursuing my mom.” Joshua was

straightforward.

“The speed doesn’t matter; what matters is that I succeeded in pursuing her.” Felix picked

up the newspaper again, no longer concerned with Joshua’s affairs. “If you still plan to be

with Jayleen, you’ll never have a chance to win Cynthia back in this lifetime.”

Joshua felt that Felix was meddling too much in his affairs and retorted, “If you have so

much free time, go manage the company.”

I want to spend time with my wife,” Felix countered.

Joshua glanced at him and asked, “You’ve been flaunting your affection for twenty-two

years. Aren’t you

tired of it?”

Since Felix managed to win over Daphne when Joshua was five years old, he has openly

displayed affection for her in all situations. The phrase ‘my wife’ had almost become his

catchphrase.

Felix smiled with satisfaction. “Those without a spouse wouldn’t understand.”

“I have one.”

“Oh? Is it Cynthia, the woman you’re divorcing soon?”

Joshua did not answer him.

“Or is it your soon-to-be wife, Jayleen?”

Joshua kept quiet. He had never wanted to silence Felix’s mouth more than at that

moment.

He should not have helped Felix win over Daphne in the first place. Instead, he should

have found more rivals for him and made him jealous.

“There’s no need to reminisce about the past.” Felix saw through what Joshua was

thinking with just one glance. “Regardless of whether you helped me pursue your mom or

not, I would have won her over.”

“Anyone can brag.”

“Do you know why?”

Joshua did not reply. He did not want to know.

“Because your mom has always loved me. I was her unforgettable first love. Though I

misunderstood her, I’ve never had another woman by my side apart from her.” Felix, for

once, had a serious conversation with him.

“And I’ve never broken up or divorced her for someone else,” Felix added the most

important sentence.
