Chapter 324
Why…
Why was that pretentious person in the video him?
Suddenly, Kendrick understood why Cynthia had wanted him to watch the footage.
This was even more intense than the previous incident, and the most important thing was
that despite causing such a commation, Joshua had not kicked him out.
It was truly unbelievable.
In the following days, Cynthia and Joshua did not cross paths.
Kendrick went to work at the company, and he specifically instructed Lionel that no matter
what happened, Lionel should make sure he never drank more than three glasses of
alcohol
Lionel did not know what had happened, but he agreed nonetheless.
Before they knew it, it was the 14th.
Joshua had already returned to Jiverton, whereas Cynthia and Jonathan had booked their
flight for the afternoon of the 14th.
If this were in the past, Jonathan and the others would attend Old Man Neal’s Both

This was Cynthia’s ex–family–in–law.
After Jonathan boarded the flight to Jiverton, he felt uneasy and apprehensive.
He repeatedly glanced at Cynthia, wanting to say something but hesitating. Although
Cynthia’s relationship with him had improved, it still could not reach the level of intimacy
they had when she was young
Sensing his emotions, Cynthia asked, “What’s wrong?”
“What should I do when I get there?” Jonathan pursed his lips, struggling to find the right
words.
“You don’t have to do anything. Treat it like any other business banquet you’ve attended
in the past. I’m just going to visit Old Man Neal, so there’s no need for you to treat it
differently,” Cynthia spoke truthfully.
“Really?”
“Really.”
Although Cynthia said that, Jonathan still had doubts in his heart.
If he were to treat it as a business banquet, he would just show up and leave without
staying for long. However, ever since the Yates Group and the Neal Group started their
collaboration two years ago, this was the first time the Neal Group had extended a formal
invitation.
After all, the previous annual meetings and such had nothing to do with them.
if they find out I’m your dad and want to talk to me?” Jonathan worried and felt somewhat
uneasy. “Should I talk to them?”
Cynthia glanced at him from the side, making Jonathan even more nervous.
“Should 12”
“It’s just a regular business banquet. You’re attending as the chalman of a collaborating
company, nothing more. As for the rest, just behave normally,” Cynthia explained to him
again.
“Behave normally? I don’t have to deliberately engage in conversations with
acquaintances?” Jonathan asked again.
“No need,” Cynthia replied.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Okay.” Jonathan felt slightly relieved, but deep down, he still had concerns as he did not
know what the Neal family was like.
Although Cynthia had said that the Neal family treated her well and Old Man Neal loved
and cherished her, Jonatha still could not help but worry for her daughter.
Over the past two years, he had thought about contacting her numerous times, but he
was afraid of upsetting her and did not
dare to reach out.
Two years
For someone still in school, it might seem like a long time. However, for adults entering
society, it was just a fleeting moment. Before one noticed it, time had already passed.
Meanwhile, at Old Neal Manor.
While everyone was busy preparing for the 80th birthday celebration, Joshua went to meet
Old Man Neal.
He was still wearing the suit as he did not have a chance to change out after getting off
the plane.
With his remarkably handsome face displaying a cool and dignified expression, he called
out, “Grandpa.”
However, Old Man Neal did not even spare him a glance.
