Chapter 9 Stand Up for Her
Be a good Mrs. Smith…
Cynthia lowered her head with darkened eyes and whispered, “Okay!”
Alston liked quietness. Besides Greg, there were only a few servants at home. The whole house was
in silence now
The lunch in the Miller family was too plentiful and greasy, and Cynthia knew that Alston didn’t get a few bites. She was afraid that he was hungry, so she went to the kitchen to cook some food as soon as she returned to the Smith family.
As soon as Cynthia put the food on the table, there was a clatter of high heels at the gate, which was particularly harsh in the quiet house.
“Alston…” With a shrill voice, a middle-aged woman wearing delicate makeup and famous brands suddenly rushed to Alston’s wheelchair.
Cynthia was afraid that the woman would hit Alston’s legs, and she hurriedly separated them, blocking the woman.
Suddenly blocked, Stella Smith was unhappy and looked Cynthia up and down. “Are you the illegitimate daughter of the Miller family? No wonder you are so uncultured that you don’t deserve
my son!”
Son?
Was she Alston’s mother?
Cynthia paused and frowned. Alston had already woken up yesterday, and Greg called her several times, but she didn’t give a response. But now, she was pretending to show her fake love for her son.
Such a kind of mother… It was better not to have such a mother.
Her heart was full of pity for Alston, and she firmly guarded him as a calf.
Looking at her slim body, Alston smiled and ate his food gracefully, in an unprecedented good mood.
Looking at the simple dishes on the table, Stella changed her face. She suddenly slapped Cynthia without warning.
Cynthia’s head was beaten to one side, and her face was burning with pain.
“That’s how you take care of my son? Look at what you cook! As a doctor, you didn’t take good care of a patient. Do you want to kill him? What’s the use of marrying you?”
Alston suddenly expressed a gloomy look at the redness and swelling on Cynthia’s face. He turned his wheelchair and dragged Cynthia behind him, posing as a defender.
“She is my wife! I didn’t hit her. What qualifies you to slap her?”
Identifying Alston’s apparent anger in his voice, Stella was surprised and angry.
Initially, she wanted to warn Cynthia as a mother-in-law. Still, she didn’t expect her heartless son to defend Cynthia, an illegitimate daughter.
Had this woman played an essential role in her son’s heart within two days?
Stella looked at Cynthia carefully. Cynthia was burying her face. Although there was a conspicuous palm print on her face, it did not reduce her beauty, adding a weak and pitiful feeling.
Stella was angry and secretly scolding Cynthia, It couldn’t imagine that Alston would be seduced by such a woman. She was good at luring men.
“Alston, I am your mother and I love you. Cynthia didn’t take good care of you. I slapped her just for…”
