Chapter 255
“Mr. Neal, could you explain a bit more clearly? I don’t quite understand what you mean,”
Jimmy said, completely baffled by the situation.
Joshua was slightly embarrassed.
Yoel cleared his throat and clenched his fist, trying to hide his amused smile.
He really did not want to Laugh, but he could not help it!
“Tell me everything you know about Cynthia, and you can set the conditions,” Joshua said,
speaking each word clearly without beating around the bush.
Jimmy blinked.
However, he quickly caught on and asked, “Are you asking me to be your spy?”
“You can put it that way,” Joshua replied honestly.
Jimmy blurted out, “No. If I do that, not only Cynthia but Mitchell and our friends won’t let
me off the book.”
Cynthia treated him so well. How could he betray her?

It was simply impossible!
“As long as you agree, I’ll give you one and a half million dollars,” Joshua sald.
Jimmy remained unfazed and rejected, “This isn’t about money. I’m Cynthia’s friend, and
friends should never betray each other.”
“This isn’t betrayal. You’re just helping me understand her,” Joshua explained.
“But Cynthia doesn’t like you, and this kind of understanding from someone she doesn’t
like would only bother her. Being constantly thought about by someone you don’t like is
vexing,” Jimmy spake earnestly, his voice still carrying a distinct youthful tone.
Joshua’s gaze turned cold.
Yoel secretly gave Jimmy a thumbs–up. Not many people had such integrity and were
unafraid of Joshua’s cold demeanor! 1
“How do you know she doesn’t like me?” Joshua’s tone grew icy, permeating the air
around him.
“She blocked your number. Isn’t that a sign of dislike?” Jimmy was actually quite fearful,
only remaining strong by secretly assuring himself that Cynthia was his support, his
lifeline. “Cynthia rarely blocks anyone. By doing so, it proves that she really doesn’t want
any relationship with you.”
Jushua’s gaze grew even darker. “She already unblocked me.”
Jimmy was shocked.
She unblocked him?
After thinking for a moment, he carefully chose his words and said, “That means you have
become insignificant to Cynthia. She no longer wants to waste any thoughts on you.”
With just a simple sentence, it struck a chord within Joshua’s heart.
He imagined Cynthia calmly and emotionlessly unblocking and saying, “Done.
It seemed like she really wanted to draw a clear line with him and disappear,
“7,000,000 USD,” he increased the offer.
“Mr. Neal, I’ve said it. This is not…”
“15,000,000 USD.”
“I really can’t betray Cynthia”
150,000,000 USD.”
Facing the escalating stakes in front of him, Jimmy felt no surprise or excitement. Instead,
he only found the legendary figure in the business world before him quite childish

150,000,000 USD, 1,500,000,000 USD, or 15,000,000,000 USD, I won’t betray Cynthia, nor
will I reveal anything about Cynthia to you”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“Then I’ll tell Cynthia that it was you who told me her address. Guess how she’ll react.”
Joshua remained seated, his gaze slightly deep.
Jimmy froze upon hearing this, and he no longer seemed the lively young boy by Cynthia’s
side.
Instead, he suddenly appeared serious and mature.
Jimmy looked at Joshua like this and continued, “Cynthia won’t react in any particular way.
She knows what kind of person I am, and ever. If something were to happen, she would
trust me because we are friends”
The seven of them never had any suspicions er doubts about each other, and they had
unconditional trust
Sometimes they would joke and tease each other, but when it truly mattered, they would
always stick together.
