Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal’s Gone With The Money

Chapter 55

Cynthia did not feel like arguing with Jayleen anymore and simply replied, “Yes, you’re right.”

Jayleen felt hopeless, as if she was talking to a wall. She had

never encountered someone like Cynthia before!

“Don’t think that just because Joshua gave you so much money in the divorce that he cares about you. Actually…”

Jayleen was angry, wanting to tear Cynthia’s calm demeanor

apart.

Why did she always act so superior when they talked? It made Jayleen feel like a clown!

Cynthia was getting annoyed with Jayleen’s constant babbling. She had never been so irritated by someone before.

She used to think that girls were the most adorable creatures in

the world.

Shirley was adorable, and her friends were adorable.

Yet, she really wanted to throw Jayleen out the window.

“Are you finished?” Cynthia did not want to waste any more

time.

Jayleen was almost at her breaking point and exclaimed, ”

Cynthia!”

“I’m not interested in what you have to say. If you’re only here to talk about these boring matters, turn right and take the elevator down.”

Cynthia’s emotions remained steady throughout the entire exchange. Jayleen’s intelligence was too low, and she did not bother to play any mind games with her.

Jayleen felt frustrated.

This was not the scene she had imagined.

Cynthia should have argued with her, preferably yelling and hitting her. Only then could she cry and run to Joshua. Then, he would start to loathe Cynthia, and she would not have to worry about him regretting the divorce.

Jayleen bit her lip and pulled out her trump card. “I have other important matters to discuss with you. Let’s discuss them

downstairs.”

Cynthia said, “Just say whatever you need to say here.‘

Jayleen pursed her lips and did not speak.

Cynthia stared at her.

The two of them stood there, motionless.

After about a minute, Cynthia’s patience wore thin. She entered her room, grabbed her laptop, closed the door, and

went downstairs.

Jayleen followed her. When they reached the neighborhood, Jayleen pointed to a cafe and said, “Let’s talk there.”

However, Cynthia ignored her and hailed a taxi.

Jayleen was taken aback, and she immediately chased after the car, standing in front of it and saying, “Cynthia, I really need to talk to you!”

“Just drive,” Cynthia ordered the driver, not even glancing at Jayleen. She wished she had bought a car and kept it in the

garage as it was inconvenient for her even to go out now.

The driver replied, “Miss, why don’t you talk to your friend?”

He hesitated for a moment and then added, “It looks like it’s

something urgent.”

Cynthia did not want to, but Jayleen was like a piece of adhesive tape she could not shake off. Then, she looked through the

window and gave it a thought.

In order to have some peace in the future, she got out of the car.

Jayleen did not block the taxi anymore. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Five minutes later, the two of them sat by the window in the

cafe. After Jayleen ordered coffee, Cynthia asked directly,” What do you want to say?”

“Do you love Joshua?” Jayleen suddenly asked.

Cynthia was puzzled.

“I love him,” Jayleen said.

Cynthia was still confused.

“Do you know why we broke up before?” Jayleen asked again.

Cynthia looked at her and said, a little impatiently, “You’d better have a good reason for talking to me.”

“I know it wasn’t fair to you for Joshua to divorce you for me, but I can’t let him go. When I found out I had a terminal illness, I broke up with him even though I didn’t want to,” Jayleen

said, her hand tightening slightly as she bit her lip.
