Chapter 534

Cynthia was simply trying to shield Daphne and Old Man Neal from warry. After exiting the

Neal Group’s building, she retreated to her car. She leaned her head against the backrest

and allowed her mind to wander aimlessly.

She never

emotional shock in Joshua. Even less did she anticipate that he had been in the hospital

wound he later suffered might not have had such devastating consequences.

As she dwelled on these thoughts, Cynthia felt a heaviness press upon her chest. She was

at a loss as to how things had spiraled to this point. If she had known earlier, she would

have spent the month following the signing of the divorce papers in a quiet place.

Without her laptop or phone, without anything. In that case, perhaps they would not be in

the present predicament.

Knock knock

The sound of tapping on the window broke her thoughts. Opening her eyes and looking

outside, she saw Matthew standing there, his dark eyes filled with a trace of concern.

Straightening up, she rolled down the window. “Captain?”

“Come on out. I want to take you somewhere,” Matthew said, with a languid and casual

tone, his hand tucked into his pocket.

Feeling little desire to go anywhere at the moment, Cynthia mustered the courage to

retort, “I’ll remind you it’s office hours. right now, and unauthorized absences can result in

wage deductions.”

“Making the boss happy is part of my job as a special assistant,” Matthew responded with

faux seriousness.

Cynthia got out of the car. She knew Matthew well enough to understand he would not ask

her to follow him without good

Matthew closed and locked her car before leading her to his own SUV. After climbing into

the vehicle, Cynthia leaned out to inspect it, a flicker of confusion passing across her face.

Matthew queried, “What’s wrong”

“Nothing. It’s just that this car looks familiar. I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before.”

Cynthia, preoccupied with her thoughts, brushed off her initial confusion.

Matthew’s eyes flickered imperceptibly, maintaining his calm as be replied, “It’s not a

limited edition. It’s quite normal to have seen it before”

Cynthia hummed in agreement without further comment. The SUV, valued at just a few

million, was indeed within the financial reach of many at Nexuria. There were many who

could afford to buy and modify such a vehicle, but her sense of familiarity with it felt

strange.

However, she did not dwell on it, settling back in the car to continue her musings.

Truthfully, it was less about active thinking and more about thoughts involuntarily popping

up.

Matthew, sensing her mood was far from optimal, did not try to engage her in

conversation. He drove quietly, taking her to their destination.

The journey took a little over an hour, Throughout the drive, Cynthia’s mind was

elsewhere. Upon arrival, they were atop a spacious, flat mountain top. As far as the eye

could see, the area was surrounded by greenery and forests. Standing at the edge, the

sight of faggy clouds swirling amongst the mountains painted an almost mystical picture.

“Captain, why have you brought me here?” Cynthia inquired.

The thought of shouting out her worries crossed her mind for a moment, only to be

immediately dismissed. Compared to

that, the Captain seemed to prefer releasing tension through training. Once a person had

been physically exhausted, they no longer had the energy to dwell on their worries.
