Chapter 34 It Hurt So Much
Alston paused. This was the first time that Cynthia expressed her attachment to him after the kidnapping.
Just as he was about to speak, Hulda suddenly tugged at his skirt and looked at him tenderly, “Alston, I have a lot of things to say to you, too.”
Alston frowned for a while and said coldly to Cynthia, “If you are afraid, go to the central hospital, or I can ask Helen to accompany you in the Smith family…”
“No need!” Cynthia was disappointed and left without waiting for him to finish.
Even though she risked her life to find him, he might be more satisfied with Hulda’s hypocritical care.
She walked away with her head held high, as if this would save her self–esteem.
Lucien was there all the time, he pushed Alston and winked at him, asking him to chase Cynthia.
Alston glanced at him and said coldly, “Something’s wrong with your eyes?”
Lucien was irritated by Alston, they had known each other since childhood. His old man often told him to learn from Alston. Alston was not only good at studying, he also brought family business back to normal and made it a front runner in the industry after becoming the family’s heir.
As brilliant as he was, Alston just didn’t know how to handle relationships with others.
He’s used to the sense of control, even in a relationship. He liked to guide and take responsibility, ignoring the feelings of the one protected by him.
Now that Cynthia had left, Lucien could only shake his head. Alston would definitely regret this.
“You must be Lucien Williams of the Williams Group!” Hulda screamed as he was thinking.
Lucien nodded with a poker face. Having grown up among women, he could tell instantly who Hulda was
when he looked at her.
While she managed to put on a gorgeous mask, he could still see ambition and flattery in her eyes. “You must be an idiot to like this woman when you have way better choice.” He whispered to Alston and knocked.
against him.
Alston was surprised that he could see who Hulda truly was.
Their nonchalant attitude totally annoyed Hulda.
After leaving the airport, Cynthia took a taxi directly to the central hospital.
Lynn was already asleep when Cynthia got there.
Cynthia was in a trance looking at her quietly.
Alston was gentle to her in Orleans and on their flight back. But he became a completely different man, keeping distance from her ever since they met Hulda. She couldn’t understand why he would treat her like
this.
Maybe she’s just a substitute for Hulda.
But she had said that she would divorce him and let Hulda marry him. Why was he still angry?
