Moses was also there.

Joshua calmly followed Cynthia’s instructions.

Old Man Neal, having a good understanding of chess styles by now, remarked, “You little

rascal, when did you learn Cynthia’s moves? Did you secretly play chess with Cynthia all

these months in Nexuria?”

Knowing that you miss her, I studied her playing style, so I can accompany you on her

behalf,” Joshua said convincingly.

“Hmph.” Old Man Neal had already returned to his usual self with Joshua. “If only you had

listened to me from the beginning. you’d still be married. What a fool.”

“Yes, you’re right, Joshua complied obediently.

Old Man Neal glared at him.

This was not fun!

Before, he could vent his anger properly, but now, Joshua’s simple agreement had

effectively shut down any further scolding.

It was simply frustrating!

They played two more rounds, and toward the end, Old Man Neal was clearly distracted.

“Do you.. still want to win Cynthia back?”

“Yes.”

“Aren’t you afraid of getting rejected?”

“I was the one who did wrong. No matter how many obstacles there are, I’ll keep trying.”

“Just look at you…” Old Man Neal could not help but miss Cynthia even more. These days,

he felt like something was missing with her not by his side. “You drove away my beloved

granddaughter.”

He really wished Cynthia was his granddaughter. In this way, Cynthia would always be by

his side, and Joshua, as her potential grandson–in–law, would frequently come to visit in

his pursuit of her. Hence, it would not matter to him if they were in a relationship.

Unfortunately, Old Man Neal did not have the fortune of having such a wonderful

granddaughter.

“Joshua.”

“Yes?”

Old Man Neal held a chess piece in his hand, but his gaze was fixed on the chessboard,

reminiscing about the times when Cynthia used to play with him, uttering, “I miss

Cynthia.”

Those carefree and happy moments were gone now, and his beloved Cynthia would not

return.

Joshua froze, and Cynthia also felt a flutter in her heart.

“Why did you let Cynthia slip away?” Old Man Neal’s eyes were full of longing, and his

tone took on a touch of aging such a good girl

In that instant, Cynthia’s heart trembled lightly. She even had the impulse to buy a plane

ticket and fly to Jiverton to tell Old Man Neal, “I’m here to accompany you.”

However, she could not…

“Do you want me to call her? I’ll do it for you,” Joshua spoke up after a moment of silence.

“No need.” Old Man Neal genuinely cared for Cynthia and considered her feelings. “It’s the

New Year, don’t disturb her. Besides, I don’t have the face to make that call after what you

did to her.”

Most importantly, he did not know what to say to Cynthia. If he expressed how much he

missed her, would it not put her in a difficult position to decide whether to come?

“Don’t play chess using Cynthia’s style from now on.‘

Whenever Old Man Neal saw the chessboard, he was reminded of Cynthia.

“Understood,” Joshua replied.

As this chess game ended, Old Man Neal wandered around the yard on his own.

Everywhere he went, he could see images of Cynthia being with him everywhere he went–

meditating, painting, playing chess, and telling stories.

He had been wondering why this year’s New Year did not feel as lively as before. Now, he

suddenly understood–it was because Cynthia was not here and because of his foolish

grandson.
