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

Chapter 77

Cynthia was shocked when she heard Old Man Neal’s voice.

“Grandpa? What brings you here?” Cynthia asked, setting down her utensils and standing up.

“Grandpa, please believe me. Joshua isn’t keeping me here against my will,” Cynthia lied, not wanting him to worry too much. Besides, if she really wanted to leave, these people would not be able to stop her.
