Chapter 30
Chapter 30 She May Be Monitored!
Cynthia was shocked by his self-introduction.
She didn’t expect Alston would actively introduce himself as her husband.
“You’re married?!” Lynn was surprised and guilty. “I didn’t even see your wedding.
Cynthia was silent. She and Alston didn’t have a wedding at all. She was a bride hidden from the public and a pathetic substitute.
“When you get well, Cynthia and I will hold another wedding ceremony.” Alston said in a gentle way. His words made Lynn very
happy.
If Alston wanted to please a person, it was not difficult for him at all.
He was smart, elegant and good-looking.
Lynn was really satisfied with him. They bantered with each other until Alston took a phone call and left the ward. Lynn seemed
she still wanted to talk something more with him.
“Mom, you are nicer to him than me. I’m going to be jealous.” Cynthia pursed her lips and pretended to be dissatisfied.
Lynn tapped her nose. “Silly girl, I’m friendly to him cause I hope that he can be kind to you. He looks really nice. He is candid,
imposing and polite. You two are a good match. I believe he’ll take care of you.”
Cynthia felt grieved. Alston was really good, but it was a pity that he didn’t belong to her in the end.
She was afraid of her mother to know her feelings, so she changed the subject quickly. “Mom, why did you love Beck?”
This question had been in her mind for many years, and now she had finally asked her.
When Lynn heard the question, she didn’t hide it and told her in full detail.
At that time, Lynn ran away from home in order to escape the engagement arranged by her family. She came to Fort alone.
When she just got off the train, all her money and phone were stolen. As a
young girl who had just grown up, she was weak and helpless. She renounced her family and became homeless.
Then Beck appeared at this time. When he was young, he was handsome and well-educated. He had a crush on Lynn at first
sight, and they soon fell in love.
Lynn always felt lucky to meet such a perfect partner.
But when she was four months pregnant, Jane found her and told her Beck was married and they had children. Lynn finally
realized she was cheated on by Beck.
Jane didn’t listen to her explanation. She dragged Lynn out and humiliated her in public.
Lynn had always been proud and arrogant. She didn’t want to be humiliated so she left Beck and hid in the countryside to
secretly give birth to the child by herself.
She was stubborn and persistent. Even in the most difficult time, she pulled through and brought up Cynthia.
Before the age of twelve, Cynthia always thought she had no father. Until her twelfth birthday, Beck found them and was
determined to take them back to the Miller family.
Lynn refused and wanted to call the police. Then she was captivated by Beck for ten years.
Cynthia’s eyes turned red with anger as she listened. “Beck is a j*rk who cheated me!”
“Straight-up facts!” Lynn was calm. She sighed, “It’s a pity that I was too young at that time, and I didn’t know that I was cheated.
Cynthia, fortunately, you met Alston. He is a good guy and will take
good care of you.”
Cynthia pursed her lips uncomfortably. She was afraid of Lynn to know the truth and didn’t say
anything more.
Lynn was very weak. After talking for a while, she was tired. Her eyes were almost closed, but she
held Cynthia’s hand tightly.
She was afraid that this was a dream. What if she woke up and found her daughter was gone?!
“Mom, I won’t leave. I’ll stay here. You’ll see me when you wake up!”
Cynthia gently soothed her until she fell asleep. She tucked the cover for her and perched on the bed. She looked at her for a
long time before carefully leaving the ward.
Alston was still on the phone in the corridor, and Cynthia went directly to him.
He turned his back on her and faced the window. His tall figure looked calm and reassuring.
Alston didn’t notice her arrival. Listening to the other end of the phone, his eyes were full of
gloominess.
“Mr. Smith, Clare has been suspecting your relationship with Hulda. Mrs. Smith may have been
monitored. You should be careful and don’t let it out.”
Hearing that Cynthia was being monitored, Alston’s eyes became darker, and his aura was intense and horrible.
“Greg, arrange for her to live in the villa at Maple Garden these days.”
When Cynthia approached, she happened to hear this sentence. She paused and smiled ironically.
Maple Garden!
It was a famous rich villa area in Fort. The price of a villa has been fried to hundreds of millions of dollars. Without connections
and power, people couldn’t buy it even if they had money.
Alston was really generous to her!
Somehow she began to get angry, deliberately stepping on the floor heavily with high heels, making a rattling noise.
Hearing the sound, Alston turned around. He was a little stunned but didn’t panic when seeing Cynthia coming. He said a few
more to Greg and hung up the phone.
“You have finished talking with your mother?” He inquired.
Cynthia stood opposite him and didn’t answer him. She said, “I’m sorry. I just overheard what you said on the call.”
She gave a chuckle but it was not a real smile.
“Alston, are you trying to hide your mistress?”
