Chapter 8 You Like Alston
“Get off my lap!”
She looked up and met his indifferent eyes.
“It’s just a play in front of Cherry. You take it seriously?”
Looking at Alston’s cold and heartless eyes, Cynthia suddenly felt sad. The instant affection for him had to be hidden.
She hurriedly got up to her feet. Remembering that Alston’s legs didn’t recover, she was afraid she had hurt him again, so she squatted down to rub his legs gently.
Alston already had some discomposure, and now his thigh was massaged and rubbed by her slender fingers, which made him feel stranger.
He subconsciously pushed Cynthia away but didn’t expect his strength wasn’t well controlled. She suddenly sat down on the ground.
Cynthia felt hurt because she thought Alston was not willing to let her touch him.
Looking at her reddened eyes, Alston pressed his lips, but he didn’t explain anything. “Push me back!” he said coldly.
When eating lunch, everyone has his mind.
After the meal, Alston and Cynthia were ready to go back. After Alston’s wheelchair was carried in the car, Cherry, who hadn’t been talking, suddenly grabbed Cynthia, saying in a low voice that only the two could hear,
“Cynthia, I know you liked Alston from an early age.”
Cynthia’s face turned pale, and her eyelashes trembled. “Nonsense! I… I am…”
Before she finished, Cherry interrupted her, “Don’t deny it. I just found the notebook in your room, and I read everything written there..”
Cynthia got annoyed, and her face flushed. Cherry went through her room and looked at her notebook!
“Don’t be proud. Do you think you can feel relaxed after marrying Alston? Cynthia, you have to recognize your own identity. You are just an illegitimate daughter of the Miller family, and the Smith family will never regard an illegitimate daughter as Mrs. Smith.”
Cherry seemed to think of something and smiled strangely. “Alston doesn’t like me and will never like you. You will never feel easy in this position.”
Cynthia’s face changed. She didn’t know what Cherry wanted to do and didn’t want to continue the
talk with her. She got in the car directly and left the Miller family.
The scenery outside flashed past the window, and Cynthia stared out of the window silently, lost in thoughts.
Cynthia was right. She liked Alston, and she wanted him a long time ago.
The first time she met Alston was at Cherry’s 16th birthday party.
Cherry invited many friends to her birthday party that day, and she dressed like a little princess. surrounded by people. However, Cynthia, dressed in dusty clothes, huddled in the corner and looked at Cherry pitifully.
