Chapter 416
Bill looked at Cynthia lovingly.
He said, “Girl, since you can recognize
recognize its value, it means that you a
you are also an expert. Please treat it as kindly as me in the future.”
Hearing what Hill said. Cynthia felt strange.
She was a little worried and asked, “Sir, where is your family? This painting can be sold for at least a few hundred thousand dollars in the market. but you sold it for 3 thousand dollars. How could you explain it to them!”
was their
Cynthia knew that not everyone in the world could spend money like water. For those ordinary families, a few hundred thousand dollars was income for most of their lives
So she didn’t have the heart.
After listening to Cynthia’s words, Bill just shook his head in disappointment and told her something.
“I don’t have to explain it to them,” Bill said in a deep voice and then looked up at Cynthia
“Girl, my wife died early, and I raised two children on my own. But now they are both abroad and have basically cut off contact with me. Now that I’m sick, they also refuse to take care of me. So now I’ll let it go and pretend that they are not my children.” said Bill sadly.
Seeing Bill’s expression, Cynthia could understand his sadness at the moment.
It was a fatal blow to be abandoned in old age by the sons he had raised since childhood
Cynthia couldn’t bear to see that the elderly were wronged and sympathized with them.
“Sir, actually I know medical skills. How about I help you?” said Cy
Cynthia
Then Cynthia wanted to take Bill’s pulse and evaluate his physical condition.
But Bill took a step back and shook his head to refuse.
“No, I’m in the terminal stage of cancer and my cancer cells have spread. Don’t bother for me,” said Bill.
Then he put the painting away and gave it to Cynthia.
“I don’t want you to help me. I just want you to cherish this painting. This painting is actually a legacy of my ancestors and could have been handed down forever, but my two unfilial sons forget their roots. I just pretend that there will be no more descendants in my family starting from my generation,” said Bill
Cynthia carefully held the painting in her hand and transferred a thousand dollars to Bill.
Bill packed up his things and said to Cynthia and Queena before he left, Tm very happy to meet you today. Perhaps we won’t see each other again.” With that, he turned around and disappeared into the night.
a felt a little sad
After this incident, Cynthia
As soon as she turned around, she saw Queena’s tearful face.
“What’s wrong!” Cynthia was startled and asked in surprise.
“Cynthia, this old man is so poor.” Queena didn’t know how long she had been crying. She was sobbing at that moment.
The gloom in Cynthia’s heart was swept away by Queena’s tears.
She patted Queena’s forehead with a smile. “Stop crying. Everyone has his o
own destiny, and we can’t change anything?
Then she took out a tissue to wipe Queena’s tears.
A few minutes later, Queena finally stopped crying and asked with her tearful eyes wide open, “Cynthia, what about this painting now!”
Cynthia put
away the painting and thought for a while.
“Although I don’t mind anything, I know that Grandma Jasmine won’t mind either. But it is inappropriate to send it as a birthday present. Either you keep the painting or I keep it”
Queena replied directly, “You keep it. Respect that old man’s wishes”
Chapter 416
“Alright,” said Cynthia.
Then they wandered around again.
Queen chose an amber necklace with orchich on it.
Then the two of them went to dinner.
After Cynthia sent Queena back to the Yearwood residence, she drove back to Regalian Garden.
As soon as she parked the car, she received a call from Liam.
Jasmine asked Cynthia to go to the Sullivan residence because she had a guest at home.
Thinking of Marina, Cynthia immediately reacted.
This time, it might be a trap.
Although Cynthia didn’t want to go, she had to agree in order not to embarrass Jasmine.
“Then wait for me at home. I’ll pick you up soon Hearing Cynthia’s agreement, Liam said in a deep voice.
“Okay,” said Cynthia,
About a few minutes later, Liam arrived at Regalian Garden.
Cynthia sat directly in the passenger seat.
In the car. Cynthia watched Liam drive seriously.
After holding back for a long time, she finally asked tentatively, “Do you have anything to tell me?”
Liam stopped the car and waited for the traffic light. Then he turned to kiss Cynthia on her rosy lips.
Cynthia was confused.
“What does this mean! Doesn’t he have a reaction to what happened today!‘ she thought
At this time, the green light outside was on, and Liam started the car again,
Cynthia finally couldn’t hold back and spoke, “I had a conflict with Marina today.”
“I know,” Liam answered directly.
“I don’t like her, so I didn’t ask Ziv to help her with the photos,” said Cynthia.
“I know,” said Liam.
Hearing this, Cynthia knitted her brows
She said, “Don’t you have other ideas? I was very bossy at that time.”
Hearing this, Liam took some time to touch Cynthia’s head as if he was teasing a child.
“Ziv has told me what happened at that time, and I think you did the right thing. I don’t even want to put on airs in front of you. Why should I let those irrelevant people put on airs in front of your Liam said.
Cynthia smiled and felt warm in her heart.
She asked, “Is that what you think?
“Definitely,” said Liam
“But I think that woman must have said a lot of bad things about me in front of Grandma Jasmine. Do you think Grandma Jasmine will believe it? Cynthia asked.
“No, she won’t” Liam was sure about it. “Although Grandma is old, she knows these things very well. As for these lousy tricks, she understands much more than you and I do, so don’t bother.”
Cynthia was moved now, and Liam explained softly.
“It’s Grandma’s birthday two days later. Marina’s grandmother also came back with her and is now living in the Sullivan residence. Grandma should also want us to meet them. If they embarrass you because of Marina, you don’t have to hold back and let yourself be wronged, okay!” said Liam
Chapter 416
“Got it.” Cynthia nodded.
The car soon arrived at the Sullivan residence.
After parking the car, Liam followed Cynthia into the living room hand in hand,
At this time, in addition to Jasmine and David in the living room, there was an old woman with gray hair and Marina with a sad face next to her.
Cynthia looked around as she entered the door.
This old lady looked a little fierce. Her face was covered with wrinkles and the corners of her mouth were down. At first glance, she was not easy to get along with.
The atmosphere in the living room was a little chilly at that moment, and the arrival of Liam and Cynthia made it even worse
“Grandpa, Grandma. Cynthia and Liam greeted Jasmine and David in turn.
“Cynthia, y
you are here. Come over and have a seat,” said Jasmine.

Jasmine stood up with a smile and pulled Cynthia to sit next to
Then she began to introduce. “This is my cousin. You can call her Mrs. Henderson.”
