Watching Joshua, Matthew raised an eyebrow. His deep voice was calm. “What’s this about?”
“I’m sorry,” Joshua began reluctantly. There was no hint of reluctance on his face, however. “I lied to Cynthia yesterday and wronged you. I’m sorry.”
Matthew smiled slightly. “Is that sincere?”
Cynthia was puzzled. What was Captain doing?
“Mmhm Joshua nodded.
“To prove that you really are feeling guilty of your actions, summarize The Pilgnm’s Progress for me in handwriting. forgive you after you’ve done that Matthew walled over and handed him a book.
Joshua was at a loss for words.
Matthew was truly hard to like.
“Captain, what are you doing? Cynthia’s voice was softer. Confusion etched on her face.

“Don’t you think he needs to be educated? Let him summarize The Pilgrim’s Progress and learn.” Matthew wanted to see if Joshua would expose himself.
The handwriting of an adult differed greatly from that of a child. He was interested to see how Joshua would do this.
Cynthia hesitated, “How about we just let it go?”
“An apology is too easy for him. He won’t remember his lesson,” Matthew explained to her seriously.
After careful consideration, Cynthia agreed. A simple apology could not fix much
Over the past few days, Joshua had transformed from an innocent child into someone who lied, deceived, and blamed others He was indeed becoming twisted.
“Really?” Joshua did not give anything away.
Matthew nodded in acknowledgment.
Joshua obediently went to summarize the text.
Despite his calm exterior, he had already planned how he would retaliate against Matthew in the future. He understood Matthew’s intentions were to expose him in front of Cynthia.
Pretending to write like a child was easy.
Watching his behavior, Matthew took a second look at him.
For the rest of the afternoon, Joshua sat there writing while Cynthia and Matthew watched him. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
His handwriting did not give him away. It was as messy as any child’s. His manners and actions were all normal.
The outcome was well within Matthew’s expectations, yet he could not help but marvel at Joshua’s Impeccable acting skills and quick reactions. He was even capable of forging hats handwriting.
By dinnertime, Joshua was seated next to Cynthia. As he readied for his cutlery, they clashed on the table
“Looking pitiful, Joshua turned to Cynthia and said with a pained expression, “cynthia, my hand hunts. I can’t hold my knife properly.”
Matthew shot him a scrutinizing glance, his dark eyes filled with curiosity.
“I’ll get you a spoon,” Cynthia offered, suspecting nothing
He had spent the entire afternoon writing. She reasoned. her own hand world have likely been sote, too, if she had written
After being handed the spoon, Joshua started eating with his left hand, relying on Cynthia to serve him whenever he wanted something.
“Cynthia, I want that.”
“Cynthia, I want this.”
“Cynthia, I want…”
Throughout the meal, Cynthia dutifully catered to Joshua’s every whim. When she was not helping him, Joshua shot Matthew a quick, provocative glance as if saying, ‘You lost.”
