Chapter 76
After that, Joshua did not speak to Cynthia again and left the villa.
Joshua confined Cynthia in the villa and had all the chargers taken away from the villa, making it clear that Cynthia was not allowed to use her phone.
Cynthia did not argue with him. Instead, she turned off her phone and went to sleep, planning to turn it back on and contact someone later. Nonetheless, she still informed Jimmy briefly that she had things to do and would not be using her phone for a few days before shutting it down.
However, Cynthia did not expect this would cause Old Man Neal to panic.
The day after Joshua left the villa, he had food delivered to Cynthia because he thought she might be hungry and alone. It was then that Yoel found out that Cynthia was being confined there by Joshua.
Yoel said, “Even though Ms. Yates is your wife, it’s illegal to confine her. Mr. Neal…”
“Whose personal assistant are you?”
“Yours, of course.”
Then, Yoel tried to warn Joshua that he was breaking the law by confining Cynthia for over 24 hours, but Joshua threatened to fire him if he said anything more.
Yoel had nothing to say, but he could not bear to see his idol suffering. Thus, he decided to inform Old Man Neal about Cynthia’s situation without Joshua’s knowledge, hoping that Joshua would not hold it against him.
After calling in food for Cynthia, Yoel reported the situation to Old Man Neal, hoping to find a solution. He could not stand seeing Cynthia suffering like this.
In terms of official business, Yoel was on Joshua’s side, but when it came to moral and legal matters, he stood with his idol, Cynthia!
In just a few minutes, Old Man Neal found out about the situation.
When it concerned information, even if it came from his own grandson’s assistant, Old Man Neal maintained a neutral attitude and decided to call Cynthia to confirm it.
If she really had been confined, he would definitely break Joshua’s legs. After several attempts, the call did not go through, which made Old Man Neal very anxious.
How could Joshua, that bastard, imprison his beloved Cynthia?
Without a second thought, Old Man Neal ordered his driver to take him to Sovereign Heights. Of course, on the way there, he did not forget to call Joshua and give him a piece of his mind.
As soon as he received the call, Joshua dropped everything and rushed back, holding a grudge against Yoel. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
When Old Man Neal arrived at Sovereign Heights and knocked on the door, the bodyguards looked at each other in confusion, their minds racing.
“Why is he here?”
“Should we stop him?”
“Are you crazy? He’s the chairman!”
“What should we do then?”
“Pretend like we didn’t see anything.”
“Open the door for me,” Old Man Neal ordered firmly, holding on to his cane.
Bodyguard number three obediently opened the door, saying, “Yes, Chairman Neal.”

The other bodyguards were taken aback. Did they not agree to pretend like they did not see anything?
As the door opened, Old Man Neal walked in and saw Cynthia eating a bowl of unappetizing pasta.
Old Man Neal felt sorry for her.
“Cynthia…”
