    Chapter 527


    “Your contact history with him should prove whether he wants to see you or not. After waking up this


    afternoon, he instructed me to tell you that the two of you are now settled and henceforth should be


    strangers, avoiding each other.” Sean steered the conversation in a different direction.


    Cynthia found it hard to believe.


    However, when she checked her phone and sent a message to Joshua’s WhatsApp, she found that


    she was blocked. She stood there, phone still in hand, mind whirling with confusion. Why would Joshua


    suddenly act this way?


    Was he trying to prevent her from worrying?


    “Ms. Yates, forgive me if this is hard to hear, Joshua, no matter how you look at it, is the CEO of Neal


    Group, admired and praised by many. You didn’t respond to his pursuit for so long. Any man would feel


    a blow to his pride.”


    “I’vee to understand part of your situation. He divorced you for someone else, and since then, you


    two have been at odds. To be honest, he hasn’t taken anyone to bed. Taking a bullet for you to repay


    you seems more than enough. Would you want him to repay you his whole life?” Sean continued.


    “No,” Cynthia replied tly.


    “In that case, why do you persist? He has repaid his debt to you by taking a bullet for you. You rejected


    his pursuit, and now he’s a stranger as you wished. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to insist on seeing


    him?” Sean challenged.


    Cynthia silently agreed.


    However, something felt off about Sean’s version of events.


    “Since you won’t be convinced until he tells you himself, so be it,” Sean said, seeing her stubbornness,


    and took out his phone.


    Cynthia watched him.


    Her hand, holding her own phone, began to sweat, her entire being in a state of high tension.


    “Good thing I was prepared. Here’s what you want to hear,” Sean said, opening a recording.


    As his voice fell, the recording yed from his phone.


    “Please convey this message to Cynthia. I have repaid all that I owe her. From now on, we will be


    strangers, no longer Interfering with each other’s lives. I don’t wish to remain entangled with her in any


    way, nor do I need her to do anything for me. I don’t want to owe her anything. I’m tired, and our


    rtionship ends here.” Joshua’s voice was faint but clear,


    After the recording ended, Sean, seeing no response from Cynthia, reyed it.


    Cynthia stood there in silence, each word piercing through her ears like a deadly bullet, finally sinking


    deep into her heart, creating emotional chaos within her.


    When the recording finished ying the second time, Sean moved to start it again.

    “No need to y it again. I heard clearly,” Cynth spoke up.


    “Won’t you want to listen to it a few more times? What if I forged it?” Sean asked casually.


    By the second time, Cynthia had already ascertained whether it was synthetic.


    This was unmistakably Joshua’s voice, without any alterations.


    It was truly what he had said.


    The two held their positions, entrenched in a standoff.


    Cynthia did not know what to say.


    Joshua’s statement of not wanting to owe her anymore was clear; he did not want her to meddle in his


    affairs.
