Chapter 523
Felix did not know what to say.
He put the newspaper on the table next to him, stood up, and said, “I’ll go cut some fruit
for you.”
“off you go,” Old Man Neal replied dismissively.
Felix then left with his phone. He went to the yard before calling Cynthia back. His tone
was always slow and composed, carrying an air of elegance and calm. “Cynthia.”
“Uncle Felix”
“I’m alone now. Daphne isn’t here,” Felix told her. He was always kind to Cynthia.
Cynthia initially had a lot to say, yet at this moment, she lacked the courage to speak up.
Both Felix and Daphne were such good people. If she were to bring them this devastating

“What’s wrong?” Felix’s voice came through the phone again.
“Could I meet with you? It’s not something I can explain easily.” Cynthia asked, finding it
more challenging than ever to articulate her thoughts.
Felix, being the intelligent man he was, listened to her tone and what she said, guessing,
“Did something happen to Joshua?”
Upon hearing this, Cynthia felt a sudden pang in her chest. Even she did not understand
why those words would cause such an emotional surge. She controlled herself fiercely,
only confirming, “Yes.”
“Where are you?”
“Jiverton.”
“Send me the address, and I’ll come over.”
“Alright.”
After Felix hung up, Cynthia sent an address. For a while after ending the call, Felixstood
there before heading inside. He went to the kitchen to cut a plate of fruit and brought it
over to them, his expression as usual.
Old Man Neal was never satisfied with whatever he did. “Co, go, go, stop bothering us.”
Felix offered a piece of fruit to Daphne and said, “I have some errands to run. Would you
like to come with me, or would you prefer to stay and play chess with Old Man Neal?”
“You go ahead.” Daphne did not usually interfere in his affairs
Ignoring Old Man Neal’s presence, Felix leaned down to give Daphine a departing kiss on
her cheek, as he often did, before standing up and leaving. Daphne continued to
concentrate on her chess game as if nothing was out of the ordinary. After giving his son a
dismissive glance, Old Man Neal also continued his chess game. Both of them were

Felix friched a car from the garage and drove to the location Cynthia had sent without
requesting a chauffeur. They agreed to
meet at a cafe.
Cynthia arrived first.
Her heart was in her throat as she looked at the object in her hands. Although her fare
appeared as composed as always, her heart could not achieve even half the calmness of
usual times.
After about twenty minutes, Felix arrived.
He wore a medium–length black coat, his hair slightly short, and his tall, slender figure
exuded a nature and steady charm. The moment he entered, he spotted Cynthia sitting in
a corner, looking somewhat haggard. Seeing her like this, Felix had a feeling that the
situation was probably worse than he had imagined.
When Cynthia looked up, she saw Felix walking toward her.
