Mr. Neal, Mrs. Neal’s Gone With The Money

Chapter 169
Cynthia remained quiet, and the others appeared to be in a bad mood.
Duane carefully considered his words and ultimately said, “Dad, honestly, your favoritism is showing.”
“And yours isn’t? Have you ever seen anyone who’s unbiased?” Old Man Neal retorted without a hint of amiability.
Duane pretended not to grasp the implied meaning, clearing his throat before continuing, “I’m referring to your treatment of the
younger generation, George and Kimberly are your own grandchildren, Why haven’t you shown the same protection toward
them?”
Old Man Neal let out a cold snort, his displeasure evident. It was apparent that he was displeased. “Why should I protect them?”
Old Man Neal could not care less about the others’ feelings. As the eldest and most authoritative figure in the family, he was
always direct and straightforward.
“They’re your biological grandchildren. Have you ever seen a grandpa who favors his daughter-in-law more than his own flesh
and blood?” Duane emphasized, unwilling to give up.
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers began to display a range of emotions. They could see that Duane was
deliberately trying to belittle Cynthia, insinuating that she was nothing more than an outsider.
“So, I’m supposed to neglect Cynthia and love you ungrateful lot? Have George and Kimberly ever shown any concern for me
besides coming to me for comfort and help?” Old Man Neal was now visibly irritated and did not bother with pleasantries.
“Don’t even mention Kimberly and George. Even Joshua and Moses, those two troublemakers, can’t hold a candle to Cynthia!”
Old Man Neal said bluntly, disregarding everyone.
The old and the young alike, both need companionship and care. Although Joshua and Moses showed concern for him when
they returned and paid attention to his health and emotions, the two rascals had not spent much time with him. As for Kimberly
and George, apart from approaching him when they needed something, their presence was rarely seen.
“Kimberly is still young and doesn’t know any better. As for George...
Forget it.
He could not come up with an excuse for that brat.
“Stop giving excuses for them. I may be old, but I’m not se nile.” Old Man Neal thundered, growing increasingly emotional as he
continued, “Among both your families, who have accompanied me in playing chess, painting, and meditating like Cynthia?”
“Not a single one!”
“Are you going to say you’re busy? Joshua tends the vast Neal Group and still manages to find time to accompany me every
month. Are you busier than him?”
Old Man Neal grow angrier as he spoke. Duane and Henry’s familles did not dare to speak up. They knew very well that they
had not done enough In these matters. However, painting, playing chess, and meditating were so boring, and they were not

interested in such things.
“Grandpa, aren’t you afraid of hurting our feelings by saying this? Who knows if Cynthia deliberately

learned these hobbles of yours in advance just to win your favor after marrying Joshua?” Kimberly’s prejudice against Cynthia
grew stronger.

Cynthia, who had remained silent all this time, spoke up. “You can learn too. As long as you surpass me in any one of them, I’ll
have Grandpa hand over the Neal Group to you.”
–
“That’s acceptable,” Old Man Neal decisively said. He still could not defeat Cynthia. Sometimes, hel wondered how she could be
so skilled in chess. Although every game ended in either win or a draw, when he reviewed the matches later, he could tell that
Cynthia had subtly let him win or draw.
Kimberly’s temper was ignited. “Have you ever asked Joshua for his opinion on this?”
“I have no objections.”
Joshua’s response was calm and indifferent.
