    Chapter 78


    Cynthia did not even bother to acknowledge him. She nned to eat the pasta but discovered that they


    had clumped together. After stirring them a couple of times, she decided not to eat them at all.


    Joshua could not stand being ignored, especially since they were the only two in the living room


    “I’m talking to you,” he said.


    “I heard you,” Cynthia replied tly.


    “You heard me, and you’re not going to answer?”


    “Just because a dog barks at me doesn’t mean I have to bark back. If you want to talk, that’s your


    business. I don’t have to answer,” Cynthia retorted yfully.


    Joshua ground his teeth in frustration.


    This woman had just called him a dog!


    “You can leave. If you pull any more stunts before we divorce, I won’t be this forgiving,” Joshua said,


    afraid that he would lose his temper if he kept her there any longer.


    “Do you have a mistaken impression of yourself?” Cynthia felt the need to correct his self–


    righteousness. “I’m the one being framed, while you’re the one causing trouble. Are you sure you’re


    being forgiving and not ruthless?”


    He really did not know the meaning of being forgiving.


    What a conceited man.


    Joshua’s expression turned cold. “If you didn’t do those things, I wouldn’t have used you.”


    Cynthia took out the remaining 15 USD she had on her and pped it on his body.


    Joshua looked confused. “What’s this for?”


    “Go to the hospital and get your head checked. I’ll pay for it,” Cynthia said, feeling like it was a waste of


    breath to talk to him any longer.


    After saying that, she went upstairs to grab her phone and left the vi hurriedly, leaving the angry


    Joshua behind.


    Once out of the vi, Cynthia hailed a taxi and headed back home. When she had been researching


    the real culprit behind Jayleen’s car ident, she had justpiled and loaded the data without


    actually looking at it. Thus, she wanted to take a closer look to see who was putting in so much effort to


    involve her in this.


    As Cynthia nned to do that, Mitchell called.


    The moment the call connected, Mitchell’s pleasant voice came through the phone.


    “You’re really back?”


    Cynthia knew what he was talking about and said, “Not really. I just had to handle a tricky situation and


    went to check it out.”


    “Because of Joshua.”


    “Mmhmm.”


    “Do you have ns tonight?”


    “No.”


    “Let’s meet and talk about something”


    “Okay.”


    Their conversations were always simple and direct, with almost no small talk.


    After hanging up, Cynthia received a message from Mitchell with the time and location.


    She replied, [Okay.]


    Then, she turned off her phone.


    That evening, at a bar.


    Cynthia wore a ck and white outfit and went to the private dining room where Mitchell awaited her.


    He was still all smiles, and the gold–rimmed sses on his face made him look elegant.


    Seeing Cynthia, he greeted her, “You’re here.”

    “Mmhmm.”


    “I have something to show you.” Mitchell took out a stack of photos from his inner coat pocket and


    ced them in front of her, exuding an elegant and refined demeanor. “These photos are all real. Take


    a look first.”


    Cynthia picked up the stack of photos and looked through them one by one, realizing that they were all


    candid shots of Jayleen with another man.


    Some were intimate photos of the two kissings, some were photos of them being really close at a


    dinner party, and there were also some photos of their daily lives.
