My Sleeping Beauty Husband novel (Cynthia and Alston) novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 The Different Alston Smith

Alston had no choice. He knew Cynthia wouldn’t rest and could never go through if he didn’t explain.

“Do you really want and have to know?” he asked again.

Cynthia nodded solemnly, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell. It’s our secret. I won’t say a single word. If you keep it from me, I will be outraged.”

“Only you and Gigi know about it. She threatened us with the baby more than three times in just one day. Who knows what she will do with it next time? So I have to know the whole story,” Cynthia said, “Besides, I didn’t like when you and Gigi spoke in riddles and looked at each other knowingly. I hadn’t been in your life for three years, and you had a secret with another woman, which made me sick.”

Cynthia would never hide her emotions in front of Alston and was direct about her feelings. She held back for a whole afternoon and couldn’t even read the medical books. It made her freak out.

Alston deeply felt distressed and kissed her, “All right. I will tell you everything.”

He paused and frowned when he recalled what had happened, “When I was with Gigi and her father, I didn’t want to waste time. So I sold my watch and got a lot of money to start a business. I didn’t know anyone there. Plus, the company grew. So many people saw me as an enemy and sent someone to take revenge on me.”

Cynthia got worried, “Were you injured?”

“No. I was lucky to survive every time.”

“It’s not luck, but you got skills and were awesome.” Cynthia pinched his cheek and couldn’t help touching it again because it felt good.

Alston allowed her and continued, “They sent several people to trouble me that day, but I was on a business trip temporarily.

Gigi suffered for me. When I came back, she had already been sent to the hospital… And then she got pregnant…”

He didn’t go into details, but Cynthia had already guessed the truth.

Those troublemakers had been discouraged by Alston, so they moved on to Gigi after knowing her relationship with Alston.

Cynthia was silent. It was true that Alston owed Gigi. No wonder he was threatened by her with the child.

“I have returned to Smith Group but won’t close the company there. It will be the subsidiary company of Smith Group. Those troublemakers may come back. I am confident to deal with them, but you, Keller, and Desmond are with me, I’m afraid you’ll be in danger.”

As Alston said, he held her hands and kissed her, “You are very important to me. I’m afraid you will be hurt.”

He was perturbed. Cynthia sighed, “I see. I will arrange for people to protect Keller and Desmond. You don’t have to worry about me, either. Bill and others have secretly protected me. I have learned a lot of self–protection techniques during the past

three years.”

Cynthia raised her chin with pride, “Bill and the others taught me self–defense skills, and I have learned well. I’ll beat them up

if I see them.”

Alston shook his head. He didn’t want Cynthia to run into those scoundrels.

“Promise me not to get rough if you encounter them. Try to escape.”

Stared by Alston, Cynthia quickly responded, “Okay, I will never be head–on. Daily Latest Chapters Upload Only on NovelsReads(dot)com I know well. And I plan to get back to work in the hospital. If I get off work late or have any abnormalities, I will call you immediately. I will never act alone. I’ll have pepper water and an electric shock baton in my bag. Those bad guys won’t get away with it.”

Alston nodded in satisfaction.

“As for Gigi… If you don’t want her to live here, I’ll let her leave, lest you get angry seeing her.”

Alston suggested. But Cynthia quickly stopped him, “No, let her stay. Although she is annoying and has been coveting you, she has suffered for you. We have servants to take care of her, so I don’t need to bother. It’s all right. And…”

Cynthia glared at him, leaned on his chest, and drew circles on his palm, “I’ll feel easier if she’s under my nose. If she goes out, who knows what she will do.”
