Chapter 196 Sleeping Pills

After a long silence, Cynthia looked at Alston and said calmly, “We are all tired today. Go to bed early, and will sleep in the baby’s room”

Cynthia’s words brought Alston up short. He realized she was unwilling to share a room with him now

Before he could say anything. Cynthia added, “The babies will come back to Coast City with me tomorrow. Let them see where grandma lived and meet other relatives of the Green family.”

Alston was tall. He looked down at Cynthia with frowns furrowing, making him look gloomy. He could tell from Cynthia’s words that she had no intention of letting him go to Coast City.

She wanted to take babies back but left him alone!

Alston felt extremely depressed and asked in a hoarse voice, “What about me? I’m your husband. Should I go back with you and meet the relatives of the Green family?”

Cynthia bit her lower lip, and her fingers unconsciously pinched the hem of her clothes. Alston could see this slight movement. He knew she liked to do this movement when she was nervous and hesitant.

“There is still a chance in the future… The Tansy Group in Fort is eyeing covetously. If you leave, Clare and the others may do something… The Miller Group… Although they have been busy enough with their own affairs recently, Jane and Cherry have always been insidious and cunning…”

Alston looked at her with deep eyes and watched her racking her brains to think of a reason. After a long time, his thick eyelashes moved, and he said, “Okay, I will listen to you. I will wait for you to return Fort.”

Cynthia froze. Then she lowered her head and did not speak. She initially thought Alston would be angry and forcefully follow her back to Coast City, but she didn’t expect him to agree so quickly.

Seeing her shocked look, Alston smiled, patted her head, and turned back to his room.

Cynthia stood at the door with her whole body tensing up. Looking at Alston’s back, an inexplicable sense of guilt suddenly surged in her.

That night, Cynthia played with the babies for a while before bed. But she couldn’t fall asleep when they were tired from playing and fell asleep. She tossed and turned and was afraid of making noises and disturbing babies. She fell asleep when it was dawn.

She felt the surroundings were all floating white, and many appearances of her mother flashed in front of her, including the gentle look when her mother was young, the smiling face when calling her to come back for dinner, and the weak look after ten years. Finally, the picture froze at the farewell ceremony, and her mother lay silent.

Before she got close, flames suddenly swept up, enveloping Lynn in them.

“Mom!”

Cynthia was awakened suddenly, with cold sweat running down her forehead, and she felt the weakness of her body.

The sunlight slanted through the window and settled on the floor. It was already morning.

“Cynthia, did you have a nightmare?” Alston rushed over when he heard the voice and held Cynthia in his arms. Seeing her sweat–soaked hair and pale cheeks, he felt extremely distressed and patted her on the back. “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a dream, just a dream!”

It was not a dream!

Cynthia was clear that she was going to send her mother’s ashes back to Coast City today. Her mother committed suicide by taking sleeping pills. Her mother was already dead.

Her eyes glazed over. Then the words “sleeping pills” suddenly made her come to her sense.

Cynthia suddenly recalled something, opened her eyes wide, and grabbed Alston’s collar hurriedly. “Alston, sleeping pills, sleeping pills! Where did my mother get the sleeping pills!”

Because she was too sad before, she never thought about it. Now, she noticed something was wrong. A few days before her mother passed away, she often lay unconscious in bed and didn’t need any sleeping pills.

Cynthia had cared for her for so long and knew what medicine her mother needed to take without sleeping pills.

“I’ll call Dylan and ask!” Alston also thought of this. A crucial point that they all ignored!

The call was connected quickly. As soon as Dylan’s voice sounded, Cynthia snatched the phone over immediately and couldn’t wait to ask, “Dylan, my mother committed suicide by taking sleeping pills. I remember there were no sleeping pills in the medicine she took. She was usually in the ward and has not been to other places. Where did she get the sleeping pills?”
