Shirley could not help but take a few more glances.
“Mitchell and Jimmy called and asked us to come over now. I came here to let you know,”
Matthew’s voice was pleasant.
Cynthia remained calm. “I still have some…”
“Little Cyn.” Matthew saw through her lie at a glance.
Cynthia felt guilty.
This was Matthew, her captain. The last time she lied in front of him, she was punished.
“I’ll go change clothes,” Cynthia said.
“Mhm.”
In no time, Cynthia came out in a more casual outfit. With this attire, if Matthew wanted to
punish her with frog jumps or something, it would be relatively easy to do.
Matthew’s gaze swept over her, seeming somewhat surprised at the drastic change in her
style for the day. However, he did not say anything. As long as she liked it, it was fine.
Before leaving, Cynthia informed Shirley of her plans.

cramped for the first time. The car was so quiet that they could hear each other’s
breathing.
One second..
Two seconds
Three seconds…
Several seconds passed, and Cynthia did not hear Matthew starting the car. Then, she
glanced sideways, her expression no different from usual, and asked casually, “Captain,
why aren’t we leaving?
“I’m just thinking about something”
“What is it?”
“Why is a certain someone avoiding me.”

Cynthia remained composed, sitting there calmly with her usual indifferent expression, but
her mind was racing
Why did she even bother asking-
Matthew’s traps were truly everywhere.
“If you can’t figure it out, how about we switch places? I’ll drive, and you can take your
time to think. This way, Jimmy and Mitchell won’t have to wait too long.” Cynthia changed
the subject.
Matthew exuded a lazy and carefree temperament.
He glanced at Cynthia and smiled before driving away.
Throughout the journey, Cynthia was tense. She could guarantee that this was the most
exhausting car ride she had ever experienced. Fortunately, Matthew behaved himself after
taking the wheel and did not purposely make it hard for her.
By the time they arrived, Mitchell and Jimmy were already there. They had arranged to
meet at a recreational sports facility that offered a variety of entertainment, leisure, and
sports activities, including tennis and golf.
Cynthia and Matthew were led by the staff to the tennis court where Mitchell and Jimmy
were located. However, they unexpectedly ran into Joshua there.

greet Matthew, they saw Cynthia bump

into Joshua
Their eyes nel.
One remained calm and unaffected, while the other was filled with complex emotions.
Matthew, standing close to Cynthia, broke the silence with his nonchalant and deep voice,
“Do you know each other?”
“He’s my ex-husband,” Cynthia calmly uttered those words.
Joshua had never felt such a strong sense of crisis before. His gaze shifted from Cynthia to
Matthew, and when he saw that flawless face, his heart was in turmoil.
Yoel, who was standing on the side, could not help but take a few more glances at
Matthew.
Matthew’s looks and temperament were on par with Joshua’s!
Yoel’s curiosity was ignited, and he asked, “Ms. Yates, this is…”

“A friend,” Cynthia answered simply. She did not mention that Matthew was her captain
because she did not want to arouse suspicion or offer too much explanation.
