Chapter 620
For some reason, she found this information slightly unsettling.
“Before the incident at Queneska Island, did you and Joshua make any sort of deal? Just
tell me. In the future, if you need my help, I’ll assist you once free of charge.” Cynthia,
after careful deliberation, posed her question.
Sean was surprised to hear that.
Such a tempting offer. Cynthia’s fees were quite high. However, the success rate was
always one hundred percent when she lent a hand.
“This puts me in a difficult position,” Sean confessed, his tone gentle.
Cynthia did not respond.
After a long pause, Sean finally made a decision, “Telling you now wouldn’t make any
difference. Moreover, I promised Joshua that I wouldn’t.”
“I can’t.”
Sean was firm.

Recalling her previous negotiation with Sean during the rescue mission, Cynthia spoke,
“You remember what you promised when you asked me to bring Yves to save Joshua,
right?”
Sean paused, recollecting the conditions set by Yves: one billion US dollars and a favor
owed to Cynthia.
“I remember…” Sean’s response lacked certainty.
“The favor I ask is to dissolve your deal with Joshua,” Cynthia asserted herself.
“About that… it’s too late.” Sean began hesitantly
Cynthia was taken aback.
Sean remained silent.
“What was your deal with him?” Cynthia inquired further.
“Hello? Ms. Yates, can you hear me? Is the signal bad? Sean began to play dumb,
pretending the signal was poor.
Following this, he promptly hung up the call.
However, Cynthia was not about to let him off the hook
She dialed him immediately, not giving him a chance to turn off his phone
Sean rubbed his temples, wondering for the umpteenth time why Joshua was involved
with Cynthia. This put him in a difficult position
“Is the signal better now?” Cynthia’s voice was indifferent, but Sean could tell she was
beginning to lose her patience. He knew it would not end well if he kept trying to evade
her.
After careful consideration, he said, “The signal is good now.”
“I need to know the details of your deal with Joshua,” Cynthia reiterated,
“I really can’t disclose that. According to the initial conditions, I should tell you, however,
the contract I signed with Joshua specifies that under no circumstances should I disclose
any details of the deal to anyone.” Sean seemed somewhat helpless, his eyes betraying a
swirl of emotions.

“So?”
“In order of precedence, I must first honor my contract with him,” Sean explained
everything in one breath.

Cynthia pursed her lips.
According to the terms, this was indeed the case,
However, she really wanted to know the content of the transaction between the two. She
had a hunch that it was not going to
be good news.
“If you really want to know, you can ask him once his cognitive abilities and memory are
fully restored. As long as he is willing to tell you, I have no objections. This doesn’t violate
our agreement,” Sean proposed after some thought.
Reluctantly, Cynthia agreed, “Fine.”
“If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up,” Sean quickly added. He did not want to talk
any further.
