My Sleeping Beauty Husband novel (Cynthia and Alston) novel Chapter 224

Chapter 224 Nothing Comes of Nothing

"Yes. Cynthia, we've been waiting for you. Why did you come here at this time?" Cherry echoed Jane in a gloating tone.

Cynthia sneered and felt ridiculous. They sent the invitation and asked her to come here at this time. Now they were asking her first.

They knew Cynthia had disowned Beck and they were bitter enemies. But they were still acting here. Cynthia waited to see what their plan was!

"Sorry, I just came back from Coast City yesterday. I heard the news as soon as I came back. This is hard for me. I fainted and recovered a little this morning."

Cynthia looked a little sad and her voice was choked. Speaking of acting, she was not much worse than these two women.

Jane froze for a moment. She thought Cynthia would get mad on the spot and she had asked the presses in advance to take a picture. But she didn't expect Cynthia was not angry but toned in with her.

Cherry's heart skipped a beat. She thought Cynthia pretended to be sad because she also wanted the property of the Miller family.

”1 heard when he had an accident, there were only you two around. I want to know the specific detail at that time. After all, I'm also his daughter."

After Cynthia finished, she stared at Cherry with sharp eyes. As Jane was too cunning, Cynthia couldn't read anything from her expression. She had to start with Cherry.

Being stared by her so closely, Cherry's eyes wandered and she was flustered. Then she subconsciously looked at Jane.

"There must be something fishy." Cynthia thought in her mind and looked at Jane.

Jane smiled sheepishly and repeated the official testimony again. Seeing Cynthia's suspicious eyes, she pointed to the lawyer at the side and said, "If you don't believe me, ask Mr. Ross."

Calum Ross was the divorce lawyer who rushed here at that time. He was originally hired by Beck. Since Beck had an accident and might not be able to wake up, the Miller Group would fall into the hands of Jane and her daughter. For his own future, he could only take refuge in them.

Moreover, Jane also promised him a lot of benefits, making him willing to work for her.

Calum nodded with a serious face. "Yes. When I rushed over, I happened to see Mr. Miller losing his feet and falling from the stairs."

Alston stood behind Cynthia and didn't speak. Judging from their eyes, he knew this lawyer had allied with Jane and Cherry.

Cynthia also didn't believe the lawyer's words. She then mentioned another key point. "I heard dad rush over in a fury. Could you tell me what made him so pissed off?"

Jane and Cherry both panicked. At that time, they were only focusing on Beck's slip but missed this point. So they didn't think of an excuse in advance.

"What? Is there anything you can't say?" Cynthia smiled slightly and pointed to the reporters present. "This is the second day after he fell downstairs while you're so anxious to have the press conference. With so many people in this room, how could he have a good rest? Do you really care about your husband?"

At this time, Alston also added, "I remember you are in the process of divorcing him, and you tried to break into Miller Group many times. Everyone knew about it. I thought you were not close to each other anymore."

They commented one after another and put Jane in a pickle. Jane held the corner of her clothes tightly and bit her lower lip. She wanted to use the press to frame Cynthia while she didn't expect that it backfired and she was caught out by Cynthia and Alston.

Under the eyes of everyone, Jane showed a wry smile slowly. "You don't understand. The thing between a couple is not simple. You will bicker over many small things for your young people. We've been married for so many years. That's quite common to have some conflicts. But after the quarrel, I still love him."

She tenderly looked at Beck lying unconscious on the bed and tugged the sheet on him, making all the reporters present feel moved.
