Although Christy Xenos acted like she was being wronged.
In reality, she truly treated Cindy Clarke poorly.
Even Joshua Clarke thought it was too much:
If Cindy was her daughter, not an adopted one, how could Christy be so cruel to her?
Because Christy treated Cindy poorly, Joshua wanted to make amends.
But he was tightly controlled by Christy too.
He couldn't even provide financial or material compensation.
So all he could do was to care for and comfort Cindy emotionally.
Joshua asked himself, had he really fulfilled his fatherly duties to Cindy?
When Cindy left, why didn't she tell him?
Five years without any contact, and letting him worry like this?
Cindy was a smart girl; she must have known how worried he was.
Moreover, as Christy said, seeing Cindy on TV proved she was doing well.
She hadn't suffered in Belfard.
Why didn't she contact him?
