Kim found Cynthia’s voice very sincere, and he was even more puzzled.
He blurted out, “This…why is this Auntie…I…I can’t figure it out…Are you not his aunt? Isn’t he even from Wade family? Is he unwilling to give you face?”
Cynthia laughed mockingly, and said, “Hehe…he giving me face? His men dared to beat me! And after his men beat me, he didn’t turn towards me, but instead turned towards his men.
And he detained me in Aurous Hill for the New Year’s Eve, and I begged him, but he ignored me at all, and it was useless for my dad to intercede for me…”
Speaking of this, Cynthia felt sour when she thought of her experience when she was imprisoned in a slum in Aurous Hill, and she couldn’t help sobbing.
Later, she said again: “You say, auntie can’t even intercede for herself, how can intercede for you?”
Kim was dumbfounded, as if ten thousand people were slashing the glass with a blade at the same time, the brain was almost out.
He blurted out subconsciously: “This…this is a brute! Who would treat his aunt like this!”
Cynthia felt the same way, and sighed: “Kim, you are right…”
Charlie, who had not spoken, suddenly asked: “Cynthia Wade, have you forgotten why I imprisoned you in Aurous Hill?”
Cynthia suddenly heard Charlie’s voice, and her heart was shocked.
She didn’t even bother to think about it, and blurted out: “Kim, you… have you turned on the speakerphone?!”
Kim said awkwardly: “It’s… Charlie asked me to…”
