Chapter 99
Joshua was uncomfortable listening to him, and he only replied, “I was the one who asked for the divorce, and it has
nothing to do with Jayleen.”
“I don’t understand why you were with her in the first place?” Old Man Neal was both angry and frustrated. “What
was so good about her? Didn’t you break up before?”
“We broke up because of a misunderstanding. I thought she left me because I didn’t appreciate her, but later I
found out that. she had a terminal illness and didn’t want me to get hurt, so she deliberately said we should break
up,” Joshua explained.
Old Man Neal was confused. “What?”
“Six months ago, Jayleen called me and told me the truth, saying that she had been cured of the illness,” Joshua
said, unable to express how he felt about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe did not really know if he loved Jayleen or not. When he learned about her illness, he just wanted to give her a
home where she could live without worries, and he did not think too much about anything else.
“Grandpa, she left me for my sake, and I can’t let her down,” Joshua continued.
“What about Cynthia?” Old Man Neal was getting angrier. “Have you considered her feelings? From the moment
you choose to marry her, you should be responsible for your marriage.”
Joshua remained silent and could not deny that he had been happy while he was with Cynthia. However, he could
not continue the marriage.
“What about Jayleen and her illness? She had it, and now she’s cured?” Old Man Neal was rational. “If it were that
easy to cure a terminal illness, then Grandma wouldn’t have died so quickly!” 1
Joshua froze.
“From the beginning, the only person you have let down is Cynthia! Even if Jayleen is as you said, it was her own
choice, and no one will wait for anyone forever,” Old Man Neal added.
Listening to these words, Joshua’s heart was touched for a moment, and his emotions were complex.
“If you throw Cynthia away just for Jayleen, by the time you regret it and want to go back to Cynthia, she’ll already
be She won’t wait for someone who doesn’t appreciate her.”
“You’re not her, so how are you so sure about that?” Joshua blurted out.
gone.
“Is it because your dad broke your mom’s heart but still managed to win her back? If that’s what you’re thinking,
then I can only tell you that Cynthia is not the same as your mother. She won’t go back to the same person.” Old
Man Neal dropped a bombshell.
With just a simple sentence, Joshua’s heart felt heavy, and a strange emotion rose within him. It was as if
something was slipping away from him that he could not grasp.
“I’ve said what needs to be said. If you still want to win back Cynthia, don’t rush into taking the divorce certificate
after the cooling–off period. If Cynthia is anxious, use my 80th birthday as an excuse to delay,” Old Man Neal said,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmclearly worried.
“No need,” Joshua declined.
Old Man Neal did not try to convince him further.
Joshua thought about how Moses had taken Cynthia away for quite some time and stood up, saying, “I’ll be going
now. I’ll visit you when I have time.”
“Get out, get out, get out!” Old Man Neal was in a bad mood.
Joshua left Old Neal Manor with long strides. He did not let the driver take him and instead took a car himself. As
soon as he left, he called Yoel.
Yoel was about to go to bed when he saw that it was Joshua calling. He took a deep breath and answered with a
smile, “Yes, Mr.
Neal.”
“Find out what illness Jayleen had before,” Joshua said, his lips slightly parted.
“Ms. Shaw?” Yoel thought he had misheard.
“Yes.” Joshua turned a corner at an intersection.
“Why not ask Ms. Yates to check it?” Yoel suggested, wanting to avoid the work. “Ms. Yates is better at researching
information than we are.”
