Chapter 370
Why was Joshua asking him to think from a girl’s perspective?
Yoel was not a girl, so how could he possibly know what girls truly think?
Did Joshua misunderstand something about him?
Joshua stopped talking to him and closed his eyes to rest.
Yoel had been silently mocking Joshua in his mind, but as he continued to mock, he
suddenly discovered something crucial….
Did Joshua’s previous words convey something about him and Cynthia?
Yorl wanted to ask, but seeing that Joshua had already fallen asleep, he decided not to
disturb hirm.
In the following days, Joshua and Yorl attended their collaboration. Although Joshua had
something on his mind, it was completely unnoticeable during the discussion. He
effortlessly navigated through the conversation, appearing calm and relaxed, and the
collaboration went smoothly.
However, things were not as smooth for Cynthia
Just two days after returning from Jiverton, Jonathan told her that old Man Yates wanted to

“If you don’t want to go, I can tell him you’re busy and decline on your behalf.” Jonathan
cared about her and did not want her to feel uncomfortable.
Cynthia declined, “He’s an elder, and I should visit him.”
Seeing her determination, Jonathan did not say much. Even so, he reminded her, “No
matter what he says, don’t take it to heart. If there’s something you can’t resolve, I’m
here for you.”
“Okay,” Cynthia responded.
After changing her clothes, the driver drove Cynthia to the old manor.
She arrived in the afternoon and found Michelle there as well, serving tea and water in
front of the elderly gentleman, saying all sorts of nice things to please him.
Cynthia walked over and greeted simply, “Hello, Grandpa”
“I thought you had forgotten about me, your grandfather. You haven’t contacted the family
in over two years, and you don’t. even visit during the holidays. Now that you’re finally
back, you still don’t visit,” Old Man Yates expressed his dissatisfaction and glanced at
Cynthia.
“There have been many things keeping me busy, so I couldn’t make it,” Cynthia
responded calmly.
Old Man Yates did not believe her at all. “Hmmph!”
Cynthia did not waste any time and went straight to the point, asking, “Dad said you
wanted to see me. What is it about?”
“Are you only coming when there’s something wrong? Can’t you learn something from
Michelle?” Old Man Yates was very displeased with her attitude.
Cynthia remained silent.
This conversation reminded her of a stuntlar scene from when she was with the Neal
family, with Old Man Neal saying similar words to others. No wonder those people had
looked at her with displeasure.
It was indeed something that attracted resentiment.
“Ever since your dad started seeing Michelle’s mother, Michelle visits me almost every
other day. The number of times she visits in a month is more than the number of times
you and Shirley come in a year,” Old Man Yates scolded.
“You’re right,” Cynthia replied.

Shirley and Cynthia never had a particularly deep bond with Old Man Yates.
He and Old Man Neal were two completely different types of people.
Old Man Neal was sharp-tongued but tender-hearted, allowing his children to make their
own choices as long as they didn’t go astray.
However, Old Man Yates was used to having people obey him. His words were to be
followed, and his orders were to be obeyed. If one did not comply with him, he would get
angry, displaying a bit of chauvinism.
Cynthia was grateful that Old Man Yates’ chauvinistic attitude did not influence Jonathan.
After Katherine married into the family, Jonathan treated her well
Whenever Old Man Yates made demands of Katherine, Jonathan would step in proactively.
Even though Jonathan said it was to provide a good environment for their upbringing,
Cynthia sometimes wondered if they had truly loved each other.
After all, could one care for so many details without genuine love, relying solely on a sense
of responsibility?
