Chapter 304
Chapter 304 David Appears
Cynthia was playing with Keller and Desmond. Seeing Mrs. Lewis come back, she pulled her aside and asked in a low voice.
“Did she have the soup yet?”
Mrs. Lewis shook her head. “Miss Arnett was afraid that I would put medicine in the soup, and she threw the soup on the
ground.”
Cynthia frowned. The soup that Mrs. Lewis had cooked for two hours was wasted. Since Gigi didn’t appreciate her kindness at
all, she had nothing to say. She was not someone who insisted on helping her.
Mrs. Lewis glanced at Cynthia’s face and told her what Mr. Smith asked her to do. “Miss Arnett took 200,000 dollars, and she will
have nothing to do with the Smith family.”
Cynthia nodded but said nothing. Gigi has nothing to do with the Smiths. It was better for her to take the money and live in her
own circle. At least it was much better than wishful thinking.
Hulda was an example. She tried her best to fit into this circle but ended up with that result. But fortunately, she pulled back
herself before it was too late, and it didn’t get worse.
Mrs. Lewis was about to go to the kitchen with the mess tin when Cynthia suddenly remembered something and stopped her.
“By the way, can Gigi get pregnant in the future?”
Mrs. Lewis said, “I asked the doctor. This miscarriage caused some damage to her body. In addition, her family has the
inheritance of habitual miscarriage. It may not be easy to get pregnant again. But as long as she takes good care of herself, it is
still possible to get pregnant.”
Cynthia breathed a sigh of relief. Good, it did not mean that she would be infertile forever.
Mrs. Lewis knew her thoughts and persuaded Cynthia. “It’s actually not a big deal. The money is enough for her to recuperate
her health. Besides, she had a habitual abortion, and it was not easy to keep the baby. Greg said that Gigi’s mother conceived
her only after she had aborted several times and finally gave birth to her, and she also passed away. Even if this didn’t happen, it
would be difficult for her to get pregnant.”
Speaking of this, she said, “Young people are more open–minded than the older generation. Even if she can’t get pregnant, if
she wants a child, it’s good to adopt one.”
Cynthia nodded and agreed with her words.
Seeing that her brows relaxed, Mrs. Lewis felt relieved and went back to the kitchen with the basket.
Keller was playing with a jigsaw puzzle, and Desmond was reading a comic book. Seeing that Mrs. Lewis had gone to the
kitchen, Desmond looked up at Cynthia and asked in a low voice. “Mom, I just heard you talking. Is the baby gone?”
Cynthia didn’t expect Desmond to hear their whisper. She touched his head and spoke softly. “The baby came here for a while,
he didn’t like this world, so he returned to his own.”
Desmond winked. He was not a real three–year–old child, he knew more than his little sister. Mom’s words were too tactful. He
knew that the baby was dead and lost, but he didn’t show it.
He hugged Cynthia’s neck and rubbed his face against her cheeks. “Maybe that woman is too fierce, and the baby doesn’t like
her as his mother. Mom, I like you very much. I love this world, and I will always be by your side.”
Desmond was sensible, and he rarely hid in her arms and acted like a baby. Cynthia knew that he was comforting her. After
hearing this, a warm current flowed through her heart.
She held his face and kissed him. “My sweet baby, thank you!”
Desmond shyly huddled in her arms and blushed. Although what he said just now was shameful, it could cheer up his mother.
so he didn’t mind repeating it several times.
At this time, in Gigi’s ward. Looking at the gentle middle–aged man in front of her, her eyes were full of doubts. “Who are you? I
don’t know you. I guess we have nothing to talk about.”
The man smiled, stretched out a hand to her, and introduced himself. “I am David, the secretary of Tansy Group. You are Gigi,
the daughter of Alston’s benefactor. Now, we know each other!”
The person who came was David who had disappeared three years.
Gigi was stunned for a moment. Except for the Smith family, no other people knew her identity. The man wasn’t from Smith, but
he accurately said her and Alston’s identities. This man... She felt something was wrong.
David smiled. “Do you know Tansy Group?”
Gigi replied subconsciously. “I have only heard Smith Group and Green Group in Jadney City!”
David’s face turned dark all of a sudden. Gigi realized that she might have said something wrong. She recalled the name “Tansy
Group‘. After thinking for a while, her eyes lit up.
Her father had inquired about Alston’s identity three years ago. He found that his Uncle Clare and cousin had left the Smith
family to establish Tansy Group. But Tansy Group went bankrupt three years ago, and David....
She swallowed, looked at David, and asked cautiously, “Isn’t the Tansy Group bankrupt?”
“When David heard this, there was a flash of anger in his eyes. The stupidest thing he ever did in his life was that he was fooled
by Hulda and Cynthia three years ago. They were so good at acting that they had been pretending to be enemies.
He never thought that they would be united.”
Cynthia, in order to avenge, was ruthless. To destroy Tansy Group, she gave up a profitable project of Smith Group, and induced
Tansy Group to take the bait.
David felt angry at the thought of that scene. These things had been on his mind for three years. It had not dissipated. Instead,
the hatred became stronger and stronger.
“It’s all because of Cynthia. She lied to me. If it wasn’t for the trap she set up, Tansy Group would never collapse, and it would
crush Smith Group.” David gritted his teeth. President Smith was such a face–saving person. He has been in prison for three.
years, and would not be released for several years.
At that time, there was no hope for Tansy Group to recover.
Of course, Gigi didn’t believe his words. Tansy Group could crush Smith Group? It was ridiculous. How could an enterprise as
big as Smith Group be destroyed so easily?
She looked at David. Although his clothes were of expensive brands, they were old–fashioned, and there were a few scratches
on his watch. He didn’t look like a secretary of a big company.
It seemed that he had a hard time after leaving Tansy Group for the past three years.
David was a little annoyed by her gaze. “What are you looking at? Look, I am down and out, but when I worked in Tansy Group,
everyone had to greet me Mr. David.”
Gigi smiled. “I didn’t mean to look down on you. I just want to know what you want to do with me?”
Although David seemed to have no great ability, he had a characteristic that was the same as hers. That was, he hated Cynthia
very much, which was enough for them to cooperate.
After hearing her words, David knew that she intended to cooperate. He said directly, “I plan to revive Tansy Group.”
Gigi was young and didn’t have much experience, but she also knew that Ivan and Clare of Tansy Group had been arrested, all
their assets had been seized, and actioned off. David had no money. Itow could he revive Tansy Group? That was impossible.
“I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult,” Gigi said, “I don’t think I can help.”
She has only one card, and there were 200,000 dollars. This money was of no use to reviving Tansy Group. It was like throwing
a stone into a well. After hearing a sound, nothing would happen.
“I don’t want you to help me revive Tansy Group,” David smiled. “You don’t have to worry about this. We have other chips. As for
you, there is only one goal, and that is to deal with Cynthia.”
Gigi was stunned at this. When she was at Smith’s house, she failed in front of Cynthia several times, and she was beaten back
every time, so she could only be sulking alone.
There was a flash of distress in her eyes. “I can’t deal with her. Alston has been protecting her, and no matter what I do, she
won’t get hurt.”
