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

Chapter 573
Cynthia was surprised and asked, “Brother-in-law?”
Where did that term come from?
“Will you?” Joshua stubbornly demanded an answer.
“The question you’re asking is meaningless. If you still want to know after you’ve healed, I’ll tell you.” Cynthia shifted the topic.
Not to mention that she was not even with Matthew, but even if they were together, he would not be Joshua’s brother-in-law since she was not his sister.
Joshua’s gaze dimmed instantly, clenching his hands slightly at his sides as a wave of sadness engulfed him.
Cynthia continued, “Go wash up and sleep.”
Joshua pursed his lips, glanced at her, and noticed the composed Matthew nearby.
Another thought crossed his mind. “Cynthia.”
“Yes?”

“It hurts…” He extended his injured hand, which had been scraped quite severely. The blister on his hand had been completely rubbed off, exposing the tender flesh and causing blood to seep.

Thinking about what happened, she still asked Matthew, “What did you talk about? Why did he suddenly fall?”
“Take a guess,” Matthew smirked.
Cynthia was rendered speechless.
When did Matthew become so mischievous?
“Don’t be fooled by his young age. He knows very well how to fight for attention,” Matthew added casually.
“Fight for attention?” Cynthila wondered if she had misheard.
“In other words, he feels uncomfortable seeing you getting along with me. Or perhaps he wants to hug you all for himself,’ Matthew casually remarked.
Cynthia pondered and reminded, “He has the mind of a five-year-old.”
Matthew replied with his captivating voice, “I suggest you discuss this with Sean again. Things may not be as simple as they
