Chapter 272
Joshua was someone Alfred admired, and his anger subsided.
Michael felt a sudden relief in his heart, knowing he would not be scolded anymore. “After having a meal with them, I’ll go back and make sure not to delay anything.”
Alfred looked at Michael sternly, but he did not say anything.
Michael knew that his father had agreed.
Michael thought of Cynthia and immediately came to her side with a joyful smile, Introducing her to Alfred, “Oh, by the way. Ded, let me introduce you to an amazing person! Earlier, Cyn had a shooting match with Joshua at 300 meters, and she hit the bullseye with a single shot!”
“She’s incredibly talented” Michael’s face beamed with joy, genuinely happy.
Alfred followed his gaze and paused momentarily when his eyes met Cynthia’s.
Was it her?
Cynthia’s paze met his, and even though they did not say a word, they expressed everything they wanted to say to each other through their eyes.
“Are you eager to recruit her to your side?” Michael knew his father too well.
Alfred approached Cynthia and asked, “What’s your name?”
“Cynthia Yates,” Cynthia replied.

“Sure,” Cynthia responded politely and calmly

“Are you alright?” Joshua’s remark had confused Michael.
In Michael’s opinion, Alfred’s reactions were no different from when he saw a prodigy on a regular day. Was Joshua..really afraid of Cynthia being recruited?
Joshua did not say much to him either, so Michael decided to ask him later.
Half an hour later, Alfred reappeared. Michael glanced behind him but did not see Cynthia, so he asked, “Where’s Cyn?”
“Her assistant came to pick her up. Finish your meal and retum to training early. Don’t waste time outside! Alfred’s mood had calined downs, and hils fare camed t
“Understood.” Michael did not dare to argue.
Alfred was about to leave when Joshua approached, dressed in a sult. Then, he looked at Alfred and uttered, “Uncle Altres, do you know Cynthia from before?”
Alled held a high position. If he knew Cynthia, it meant Cynthia’s background was.. Thinking about it, Joshua found it Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“Not exactly. She resembles her mother, whom I lew. Alfred’s voice was low and serious.
With a simple sentence, Joshua’s suspicion was dispelled.
Alfred left the shooting club.
Thinking about Cynthia asking him to find an excuse before leaving, he smiled, appreciating her cleverness. At the same time, he lamented that Cynthia did not join them.
Things would have been completely different if he had met her before that guy.
As he pondered these thoughts, Cynthia had already left in Moe’s car.
