believed everyone should cherish her..
“What does what you’re good at have to do with Grandpa?” Cynthia fired back.
In the two years since Cynthia married into the family, although Old Man Neal initially did
not like her, he never said anything offensive. As they gradually interacted more, she

“Rumors end with the wise,” Old Man Neal cryptically uttered.
Cynthia glanced at Old Man Neal.
They were divorcing the day after tomorrow.
“But a friend of mine who works at the Civil Affairs Bureau said they saw Joshua and
Cynthia submit divorce papers some time ago. If we calculate the time, they should

Henry and Duane mostly relied on their shares from the Neal Group.
George was a loser.
As a result, the gap between Felix and their two families had clearly widened.
Upon hearing her words, Henry immediately became angry and was about to retort when
Old Man Neal intervened.
“Henry, Duane, you should both go back first. Cynthia, Joshua, and I have something to
