Nonetheless, Yoel still answered, “Hello, Young Master Neal.”
“Hasn’t Joshua finished work yet?” Moses asked
Yoel glanced at Joshua in the back seat and replied, “We encountered a sudden issue, and
there’s an urgent matter that needs to be handled. It might take another hour before he
can leave work.”
“Alright. Tell Joshua to hurry up. Let him know we’re waiting for him,” Moses said.
Yoel nodded and said, “Okay.”
“By the way,”
“What is it?

“Is Joshua okay?” Moses asked again. Despite their usual banters, they were brothers,
after all. “When I spoke to him just now, he sounded off.”
“He’s probably just tired. Mr. Neal has been so busy that he hasn’t had a meal the entire
day,” Yoel lied on Joshua’s behalf.

added. He knew Yael would remind Joshua to eat on time, and he could not help but
wonder what could keep him so busy.
After the call ended, Yoel put his phone on silent mode and looked at Joshua, ferling a
pang of sympathy. Then, he said, “Mr. Neal, you only have about an hour left at most.”
“Let’s go,” Joshua said hoa rsely
If it were just Moses, he could do whatever he wanted. However, their parents were here,
and he could not keep them waiting for so long
Yoel pursed his lips and drove away, feeling conflicted.
Suddenly, he began to blame himself.
Why did be not persist and have a heart-to-heart talk with Joshua back then?
It was so foolish to divorce Cynthia for Jayleen when he clearly did not even like Jayleen.
So st upid!

When Joshua got out of the car, Yoel handed him something and called out to him, “Mr.
Neal.”
Joshua stopped in his tracks.

indifference and aloofness due to his mood Instead, he appeared sorrowful and lonely.
Yoel handed the Htern over and said, “Happy bartliday. May all your wishes come true.”

Joshua appeared to be troubled. In the past two years, Cynthia and Yael would secretly
plan surprises for him on his birthday.
This time, even though Cynthia was not here, Yeel should be.
After careful consideration, Yoel finally agreed, “Alright.”
His thoughts were simple,
Joshua was not in the best state, and forcing a smile would be easily noticeable. Hence,
going with him could help ease the atmosphere.
However, Yorl had underestimated joshua’s ability to handle his emotions. Apart from
relationships, Joshua had never hardened the family with his troubles.
When they reached the doorstep of their home, Joshua had already composed himself,
concealing all his thoughts in his heart.
At this moment, he looked like someone who had just come back from work, as if nothing
else had happened
Watching this scene, Yoel felt a mix of emotions.
So Joshua was just like them, hiding his negative emotions when facing their parents, not
