After all, he was not Joshua’s father-in-law anymore, and there was no reason to be so

Joshua raised an eyebrow, instantly seeing through his thoughts.
He did not mind and just stood there, uttering, “I arrived in the Nexuria and haven’t found
a place to stay. I wonder if it’s convenient for me to stay here for a night?”

for him?
“I don’t like him, and I have no feelings for him,” Cynthia quickly replied.
