Chapter 621
Cynthia wanted to ask more, but given Sean’s cument state, she lmnew she would not get
anything else.
She decided to end the call
In the next two days, she took good care of Joshua, who was well-behaved.
A few days from New Year’s Eve dinner, Felix, who had previously said he would come to
the capital, arrived.
“Do you want to go to the airport with me to pick up your father or wait for me at home?”
Cynthia asked him, letting him make the decision
Joshua replied promptly. “I’ll go with you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe did not want his father of his to come.
However, given the current circumstances, he could not stop it. It was better to go with
Cynthia, so his father would have no opportunity to say anything bad about him.
After Cynthia agreed, she took him to the airport.
In the car, Joshua seemed somewhat ill at ease. “Cynthia, is my dad a very serious
person?”
“Not at all, he’s a nice person, and he loves you very much,” Cynthia answered truthfully.
Yeah right.
That was Joshua’s first reaction
Judging from the previous phone call, it was clear to Joshua that his father was not an easy
man to deal with. “Is he coming to take me home? I don’t want to go home. I want to stay
with you,” Joshua asked again, his eyes pure and clear.
Cynthia paused. By now, Joshua’s m ental age had reached seventeen. If she introduced
him to his family members and recounted some past events, his exceptional acting skills
would surely dispel any doubts. Perhaps, he really could return home for the New Year’s
Eve dinner.
“Cynthia,” Joshua called out to her again.
“He’s coming to see you,” Cynthia replied, deciding to discuss it with Felix later.
Upon reaching the airport, Cynthia instructed the driver to park at the side, and before
long, Felix emerged from the terminal. Cynthia stepped out to greet him. Once the driver
had helped Felix stow away his luggage, they all boarded the car again. Joshua sat next to
Felix while Cynthia sat in the front passenger seat.

observing Joshua’s aloof demeanor and reluctance to speak
Joshua remained silent. As expected, he did not like this man.
“Still no greeting?” Felix probed again.
Cynthia turned to look at him, and seeing this, Joshua reluctantly said, “Dad.”
“Good boy,” Felix replied, a faint smile gracing his lips.
Joshua’s mind was in a whirl. The man was inscrutable. Should a father not be stern and
serious toward his son? Why was he being affectionate and saying ‘good boy’?
“Uncle Felix, I’ve booked a restaurant for us. I will brief you about Joshua’s condition when
we are having dinner,” Cynthia said.
Felix agreed. “Alright.”
For the rest of the journey, Felix carried on an intermittent conversation with Joshua.
Regardless of Joshua’s memory loss, Felix’s attitude toward him had not changed.
