Chapter 532
If he upset her, his future could indeed be bleak.
Yes, having caught his reaction, gave Sean a sidelong glance.

Sean’s mind worked fast. As soon as Yves looked his way, he knew he had given himself
away. “Tell her that I will certainly not keep anything from her. Whatever she wants to
know, I will report. I just hope she can keep her promise.”
“What promise? Yves was quite concerned about Cynthia
For him, Cynthia was a friend and a sister.
Although she was K, in his heart, she was just an ordinary girl with a pure heart and an
innocent personality.
“Nothing much. Safe travels. Sean voluntarily withdrew from the passenger seat.
Yves kept his gaze fixated on him. Sean had always been somewhat timid around Yves.
Given the predicament with K weighing heavily on his mind, Sean quickly conceded, “I
assure you, it’s nothing!”

“Joshua doesn’t want anything to do with her. However, she wanted to know about him, so
she offered me a hundred million dollars in exchange for providing her with news about
Joshua,” Sean confessed, hoping to mend his relationship with Yves.
“When did this happen?” asked Yves
“Just a couple of days ago in the hospital. She came to me with a consent form and made
the proposition in the hallway,” Sean explained.
“Hmm.” was all Yves said before he pulled shut the car door and drove off, leaving Sean
befuddled and unable to decipher Yves’s behavior.
What did that hem mean? After racking Ins brains for a while, Sean decided to stop
pondering over Yves‘ reaction and shifted his focus to the revelation that Cynthia was K.
He stared at Cynthia’s number on his phone, hesitating outside the base for quite some
time before finally deciding to make the call
When Cynthia answered the phone, she was at Neal Group. After acknowledging Yoel with
a nod, she picked up the call.
“Good morning, Ms. Yates.”
“What is it?” she asked curtly.
“Well, you certainly know how to keep a secret, don’t you?” Sean, sounding as cunning as
ever, could not help the smile that was playing on his lips. “If you’d just told me you were
K, I would’ve given you any information you wanted for free. There was no need for you to
pay for it.”
Cynthia’s response was uncharacteristically nonchalant. “Alright.”
Sean was taken aback. What did ‘alright‘ mean?
“I am K,” Cynthia finally introduced hersell.
Sean’s mouth twitched slightly at the revelation. He had just told Cynthia that he would
give her information if she was K. And she had just…admitted that? Had Knot always been
foclifferent to wealth? Given her usual temperament, he had expected her to insist on
clearing the debts. Could it be that Yves had tricksd him?

Cynthia, not hearing any response from Sean, asked, “Is there anything else? If not, I’ll

“Hold on When will you be depositing the ten calllion you promised last time? Sean quickly
interjected, wanting to confirm her identity farther.
“With your memory, I’m seriously concerned about leaving Joshua in your care. Didn’t you
just promise to give me information for free?” Cynthia remarked, recognizing that he was
attempting to probe her identity.
“Only ladding. You go ahead with your work I’ll check on Joshua.” Sean rushed to cover his
tracks, feeling like he had made a

huge blunder.
Quickly, he hung up the phone, wishing he could smack himself. Why on earth did he have
to blurt out that he did not need the money? Now he had lost out on a hundred million
dollars for a single piece of information.
Cynthia looked at the disconnected call and was about to resume her conversation with
Yoel when a call from Yves came in.
Straightforward as always, Yves cut to the chase without any preamble, “I believe Sean
may have withheld some information from you. I didn’t see Joshua.”
