Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

Chapter 255

Cynthia thought for a moment and said, "The day after tomorrow is Naomi's birthday. I already have plans."

Cynthia wasn't lying. It really was Naomi's birthday, and Naomi had invited her over to a villa party at Azuregaze Mountain.

the other end of the line, Selena was cautiously hopeful. "Alright, then we'll reschedule. Is that okay with you?" Cynthia gave a brief hum of agreement.

After Selena hung up the phone, she sighed. Justin quickly asked, "So, did she agree?" Selena shook her head.

Justin's face changed instantly. "What's wrong with you? It's been so long, and you still can't handle such a small matter.

*If Cynthia doesn't go, how do we have an excuse to visit the Xenos family? Haven't you seen how Velorix's stock is dropping? How can you not be concerned?" he said.

Selena's temper rose as well. "Do you think I'm not worried about the company's current situation? But will worrying help? Is the stock crashing my fault? Justin, all the major decisions have been yours over the years. "When Shirley took Cynthia's competition spot, you approved it Now you want to blame everything on me? What's your deal?

Justin knew his wife's personality well. He came from a modest background but was well-educated and quite charming in his younger years, falling in love with Selena at a dance. Marrying Selena was more like him joining her family than her joining his.

So for his entire life, he let Selena have her way, Mainly because he built his success on the Yao family's assets, and Selena always had control over the family's finances. I

Justin looked at his wife, whom he had tolerated for half his life, and felt a deep-seated irritation. But eventually, he gave in out of habit. "I'm just feeling anxious right now.

"The Xenos family is our only hope. I've spent a lot of money and favors to get a meeting with them. It's rare that Kay Xenos still remembers the gift of the gemstone from years ago and has invited us to their family dinner. "This is truly an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Cynthia doesn't go, then what's the point of us going? They specifically said they wanted to see the child from back then and also requested to see the gemstone again." Neither of them spoke. They couldn't change the time scheduled by the Xenos family. Additionally, it was rumored that they were only back for two days to pay respects to their ancestors.

Missing this opportunity meant there wouldn't be another. But Cynthia had clearly refused. Selena remembered it was Naomi's birthday that day.

Naomi was Cynthia's childhood friend, as close as sisters. Selena guessed that Naomi's return to Roncrity was probably for Cynthia.

Cynthia valued Naomi's birthday more than her own, so she couldn't stand Naomi-up.

The couple was at a loss when Shirley suddenly stormed into the room. Her face was full of indignation. "Dad, Mom, who is your real daughter here? Why do all the benefits always go to Cynthia instead of me?" Seeing Shirley, Justin felt his blood pressure skyrocket. "How dare you ask?

"If it weren't for your plagiarism incident with Miss Y that embarrassed us worldwide, would the Jones family be in such a mess? Our stocks have plummeted, and now our family is on the brink of bankruptcy, all thanks to you!"

Justin muttered to himself, "What did I do in a past life to deserve a daughter like you? Sometimes I think it would've been better if you had stayed outside. You're just here to collect a debt from us

Hearing those words, Shirley felt both angry and wronged. "Dad, how can you say that? You gave birth to me and then lost

me

"I grew up in such harsh conditions while you gave all the love and resources that should've been mine to Cynthia. If I had been raised with the same advantages as Cynthia, Ed definitely be more successful than her. "Conversely, if Cynthia lived in the environment that was originally meant for her, she'd be a hundred times worse than me

Every time Selena heard Shirley say things like this, it felt like a knife stabbing into her heart. She used to feel guilt, affection towards Shirley, wanting to make up for everything with the best the world had to offer. pity, and

But now, Shirley's accusations had been repeated countless times. Selena's feelings have long since changed from how they

were years ago.

"Shirley, you've been back for over three years. Have you made any progress?" Selena looked at Shirley calmly and said.

"When you got switched, it wasn't something we wanted or orchestrated. It was an accident, fate's decision. Are you going to use this excuse for your failures your whole life?" she continued,

In these three years, I got you an etiquette teacher to learn the manners and ways of the upper society. What have you gained:

"We planned to send you abroad to enhance your skills and earn an impressive degree, but you said you didn't want to go through that hardship.

"We placed you in the company to learn management, intending to entrust the business to you, yet you turned around and sold the company's stock worth 300 million dollars for just 6 million," Selena said. Selena spoke calmly, "People can change. Now you have everything, but you haven't made any progress at all."

Selena sighed. "You're just not like Cynthia. Three years ago, she lost everything-wasn't that devastating for her? It was worse for her than it is for you.

"Falling from the sky into the mud is much more painful than always struggling in the mud. But look at how she's played the hand life dealt her over these three years.

Selena looked at Shirley and said. "Do you know what makes you different? It's because she never complains; she only looks ahead."

Shirley yelled at Selena, "In the end, you all think Cynthia is perfect just because she married into a rich family, the

Bennetts.

"But what's the good of her being their daughter-in-law if she's not going to help the Jones family in a crisis?

"Do you really think Cynthia still cares about you? She's holding on to it. She remembers every little thing you did to her in the past three years.

"To Cynthia, you're strangers now. When times get tough, the only person you can rely on is me."

Seleria was completely disheartened and didn't want to say another word. However, Justin seemed a bit moved.

Yeah, even though he gave Cynthia twenty percent of the shares she hasn't used it to help the company. Now, her attitude toward the Jones family, toward Velorix, is indifferent. She's not the same as before. But Justin scoffed, "Rely on you? What do you have that we could possibly count on?"

Shirley said, "Cynthia found a strong connection; I can do the same.

"Introduce me to the Xenos family, and if I can form ties with them, I'll support the Jones family wholeheartedly and help make Velorix a top luxury brand worldwide."
