Chapter 4
I did not reply to her message, but took a screenshot and posted it in the group.
I was not the kind of person who would let myself be wronged. If they did not want to be decent, there was no need for me to consider their face.
After I sent out the screenshots, my parents called me and asked me what had happened. So, I told them everything I had discovered.
My mother was so angry that she immediately bought a plane ticket and came back to make the decision for me.
But I did not think it was necessary and was just about to persuade her not to come back.
Alvin’s mother sent me a message, saying, [Cynthia, come to my house for dinner tomorrow and I will let Alvin give you an explanation.]
I didn’t want to go at first, but she said that Alvin’s grandfather also knew about it and it was him who wanted to see me. So, I didn’t refuse.
The next day, my assistant called me.
“Ms. Randall, it’s time to allocate funds again today. How much living expenses should be given to Miss Blackwell this month?”
I answered flatly. “No need to give her any more money. I added, “Starting today, you do not need to give her living expenses anymore. She has someone to take care of her.”
Mary had long lost her previous simplicity over the years.
After entering university, she did not apply for poverty assistance, nor did she have the idea of working part–time to earn money. She also preferred luxury goods and wore all branded clothes.
I had wanted to stop supporting her for a long time, but thinking about her paralyzed parents and mentally retarded brother, I never made up my mind.
But that day, I did not care about it anymore.
Why should I fund someone who has destroved me from inside?
After explaining the situation, I returned to the company.
After I graduated from college, my father handed over all the company matters to me one by one. Since he decided to retire and travel around with my mother.
As a result, I spent a lot of time on work..
When I was about to sit down, Alvin pushed the door open and walked in.
His face was filled with anger and his voice was cold. “Cynthia, do you know that when you posted. those screenshots to the group yesterday, Grandpa was almost so angry that he had a myocardial infarction.”
His appearance was no surprise to me.
My expression remained unchanged. I looked at him coldly and interrupted him, “What does this have to do with me? You were the one who did the dirty work, not me. You are the one who should feel ashamed.
“Don’t come here to act crazy. If you have nothing to do, please leave. I have something else to deal with. Alvin was left speechless by what I said. He rubbed his temple and softened his attitude.
He whispered, “Cynthia, this is all a misunderstanding. I treat Mary as my sister. There is nothing between us.
“When you go to my house today, tell them not to bring her into this, I will pretend that what happened yesterday did not happen and we will get married as usual.
After hearing that, 1 felt sick. What on earth was in his mind that he could say such a thing? I looked at him with disgust and asked, “Alvin, do you really think I can’t live without you? He was the one who was unfaithful in the relationship, so why did he speak to me in that tone?
‘Cynthia, I know you are angry now, Alvin pinched the root of his nose tiredly and softened his voice,
but please don’t act on impulse. You also know that our two families have cooperated a lot in business and our parents are also good friends. If our affairs affect the relationship between the two families, it will not be worth it.
I was speechless by his answer. So, he blamed me?
“When you did these things, why didn’t you think about hurting the relationship between our two
I yelled. families? It was you who did the wrong thing, not me,
At that point, he suddenly became emotional. “Yes, I did something wrong, but every man has hist own little fun outside. Máry can’t threaten your position at all. You will still be Mrs. Murphy.
“Besides, can you guarantee that if you are with someone else, he will be loyal to you for the rest of his life? Cynthia, we are all adults, not innocent children anymore. Don’t always think that things are so simple.
I almost laughed out loud after hearing what he said.
There was a chill in his eyes and his voice turned cold. “You said so much just to offset the guilt in your heart. In the final analysis, you are just an ordinary, selfish man.
“I was blind at first and wasted so much time with you. Now I won’t keep you company anymore. You can marry whoever you want. It has nothing to do with me.
“If you don’t want to be laughed at, leave on your own initiative. Don’t make me call the security guard to come and get you.
Thad a narrow mind and could not tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes. What was more, I dug that grain of sand myself.
Seeing that he couldn’t convince me, Alvin turned away angrily.
In the afternoon, I arrived at the Murphy family’s Manor as promised.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Alvín kneeling in the hall. While Bernard Murphy sat upright on the sofa, with a majestic look on his face..
I walked over slowly and called out softly, “Grandpa. his face eased.
As soon as Bernard saw me, the serious expression on his face eased.
He said to me, Cynthia, I know everything about you. I asked you to come here today to give you an explanation. Alvin did something wrong and should be punished. You decide how to punish him.” His words undoubtedly showed his position and he wanted the matter to be over easily.

In the past, I would have climbed down his ladder. But it was not possible again.
I shook my head and said slowly, “Grandpa, Alvin and I broke up. So, it will be your family affairs. now. I have no right to interfere.
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire venue suddenly froze.
Alvin’s mother was so anxious that she was spinning around in circles. She tried to say something to me several times, but Bernard stopped her with his eyes.
“Cynthia, have you thought it through? Marriage is not a joke. If it really ends, there will be no turning back.

After Bernard finished speaking, Alvin suddenly looked up at me, with nervousness and uneasiness in
Before I could say anything, he spoke first, in a hoarse voice, “Cynthia, I will draw a clear line between us and her. I also promise I will no longer have any contact with her. Can you forgive me this
