Chapter 228 Arouse Method
Cynthia didn't know about Henry and Ivan's plan at all. Since returning to Jadney City, she went to work in the hospital. Due to all kinds of things before, she asked for leave too often and caused a lot of trouble for her colleagues. Cynthia felt sorry for them and covered their shift proactively. So she was quite busy after going back to work.
After a busy morning, when she just took a breath, she suddenly saw a woman poking her head at the door of her office. It was Vanessa!
Vanessa looked around the office and met Cynthia's indifferent eyes. She walked out embarrassedly and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Smith!"
"Do you need something?" Cynthia pressed her temples. She had a severe headache as she was on the run these days.
Vanessa kept crumpling the strap of her purse and finally gathered her courage. She said, "Mrs. Smith, what I said in the ward is true. It must be Jane and her daughter who framed Mr. Miller that day. I was cleaning the room and found the coral ornament was equipped with a camera. Mr. Miller checked it and went to criticize them... In less than an hour, he became a vegetable. Do you really believe this had nothing to do with Jane and her daughter?"
Vanessa became more excited. She looked at Cynthia eagerly. "They are heartless and cruel. It must be them. Mrs. Smith, you have to restore justice for Mr. Miller. We can't let them take over Miller Group."
Cynthia took a sip of water calmly. Looking at Vanessa's angry expression and her bloodshot eyes, Cynthia was indifferent.
It seemed Vanessa didn’t sleep well after going to the ward. She came to Cynthia today and wanted to use her to deal with Jane and her daughter. She was so audacious to treat Cynthia as a pawn.
"I know them better than you. You're right. There is something in it..."
Cynthia put the cup on the table. She looked at Vanessa's expectant eyes and smiled coldly.
"But it's none of my business. I've already said I have nothing to do with the Miller family now. I don't care if Beck is dead or alive. Don't forget I sent you to the Miller Group. It seems you have forgotten what I told you before after you stayed by Beck's side for a long time?"
Vanessa tensed up and her face turned pale instantly. When Cynthia sent her to the Miller Group, her goal was to seduce Beck and crush him!
She had forgotten there was hatred between Cynthia and Beck!
Looking at the expression on her face, Cynthia knew what she was thinking. She said with a smile, "Ring a bell? Then get out. I won't get involved in this matter. If you want to take Jane and her daughter down, pray Beck can wake up. If he can't, everything is in vain as he's the only one who can tell the truth!"
Vanessa looked a little upset. She knew Cynthia was right, but she was not reconciled to watching Jane and her daughter get Miller Group effortlessly.
"Mrs. Smith, you were also one of the Miller family once. Do you want Miller Group to fall into their hands?"
Seeing her being thoughtful of her, Cynthia smiled, "Vanessa, don't treat me as a fool. I know what you are thinking. I don't care what you do, but I don't like being treated as a pawn. You should go back. Don't disturb me in the future."
"Mrs. Smith!" Vanessa was startled. Then she pretended to be pitiful. "Only you can help me. I've been with Mr. Miller for so long, but I didn't get anything in the end. You sent me to his side. You have to..."
"What!" Cynthia yelled angrily and stood up in an instant. "Now you come to find me. I made a deal with you at the time, and I made it clear that I will pay you after it was finished. But you are too greedy. You broke the deal and stood on Beck's side. So I don't care how you live in the future. You get what you choose!"
Vanessa hadn't seen Cynthia so angry. Cynthia had a delicate face and looked petite and friendly. But when she got angry, it even made Vanessa's heart skip a beat.
As Cynthia and Alston had been together for a long time, she was influenced by him somehow. When she got angry, she was quite similar to Alston and she learned how to intimidate others.
Vanessa didn't dare to say anything more in front of her. Seeing the other doctors in the office coming back after dinner one after another, she had no choice but to leave in despair.
Now she could only hope Beck would wake up early. That was her last straw.
