    Indeed,


    1, Cynthia did not think much of it. Her attention was drawn to the man steering the yacht, her


    eyebrows knitting together in slight confusion. “Sean?”


    “You recognize me?” Sean, with his retined features, smiled like a breath of fresh spring air.


    Cynthia’s brow furrowed slightly.


    Sean’s background was impressive, but he was a mix of good and evil. There was almost nothing he


    could not aplish. However, his assistance always came with a steep price. How did Joshuanos


    Sean?


    “Did you make a deal with him?” Cynthia asked Joshua


    Sean began nonchntly, “I should thank you. If it weren’t for you.


    Before he could finish, Joshua rut him off “Just steer the yacht.”


    Sean mimed, zipping his lips shut.


    Their series of exchanges aroused Cynthia’s suspicion. “Did you make some sort of deal with him?


    Sean was a manpletely devoted to the study of psychiatry, yet his focus inclined heavily toward


    theology. His mantra was simple: At the end of science, there lies theology.


    “No. He owed me a favor. This was his repayment, though he felt short changed and asked me to


    assist him with a minor task, “Joshua led to her, his dark eyes filled with tenderness.


    “You aren’t lying to me, are you?” Cynthia felt a nagging suspicion.


    “No,” Joshua responded softly, soothingly.


    Listening to his assurances, Cynthia refrained from pressing any further. After all, it was not entirely


    appropriate for her to pry too deeply into his affairs.


    “Thank you for what you did. I owe you a favor. In the future, if you need help with investigations or


    security systems, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.” Cynthia reflected on the previous events, filled with


    gratitude.

    “You owe me nothing. Yerick was, after all, going after me.” Joshua’s breath was somewhat warm.


    Cynthia upened her mouth to respond, but before she could articte her thoughts, Joshua called out


    to her, voice brimming with affection, “Cynthia ”


    “Hmm?” Cynthia responded, her tone significantly softer towards him.


    Joshua said nothing, merely gazing at her. Her cheeks, rosy and smooth; her lips, cherry red and


    delicate; and her eyes, sparkling like peach blossoms, held only him in their view.


    If this was hisst moment in life, it would not seems too bad.


    With this thought, a small smile tugged at the corners of Joshua’s mouth, his back injury seeming less


    painful.


    “What is it?” Cynthia noticed his prolonged silence.


    “Nothing, I just wanted to call your name. Ever since Imitted those despicable acts, it feels like


    we’ve never had a


    moment of peace to this,” Joshua responded with infinite tenderness, his eyes never leaving hers


    Cynthia remained silent, unsure how to respond She was, by nature, not a woman of many words.


    Joshua felt his life slowly ebbing away, his eyelids growing heavy, but he did not want to close them,


    fearing that if he did, he might never see her again.


    Noticing his pallor, Cynthia suggested, “You should rest now. We can talk when your fever subsides.”


    “Alright.” Jushua’s voice was husky,

    After ten minutes, Sean guided the yacht to shore.


    Standing these casually, he announced, “Ms. Yates, a vehicle has been arranged for your way there

    “Thank you,” Cynthia replied

    as she reached for him, Sean stepped in, “From this moment, he’s my responsibility. You need not


    concern yourself, Ms. Yates.”


    “He’s running a fever.”


    “I will find the best doctor to treat him.”


    Cynthia squared off with him.


    Struggling to stand, Joshua felt grateful for his fever as his flushed face concealed his terrible pallor
