My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols

Chapter 285 The Different Alston Smith

Alston had no choice. He knew Cynthia wouldn’t rest and could never go through if he didn’t explain.

“Do you really want and have to know?” he asked again.

Cynthia nodded solemnly, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell. It’s our secret. I won’t say a single word. If you keep

it from me, I will be outraged.”

“Only you and Gigi know about it. She threatened us with the baby more than three times in just one

day. Who knows what she will do with it next time? So I have to know the whole story,” Cynthia said,

“Besides, I didn’t like when you and Gigi spoke in riddles and looked at each other knowingly. I hadn’t

been in your life for three years, and you had a secret with another woman, which made me sick.”

Cynthia would never hide her emotions in front of Alston and was direct about her feelings. She held

back for a whole afternoon and couldn’t even read the medical books. It made her freak out.

Alston deeply felt distressed and kissed her, “All right. I will tell you everything.”

He paused and frowned when he recalled what had happened, “When I was with Gigi and her father, I

didn’t want to waste time. So I sold my watch and got a lot of money to start a business. I didn’t know

anyone there. Plus, the company grew. So many people saw me as an enemy and sent someone to

take revenge on me.”

Cynthia got worried, “Were you injured?”

“No. I was lucky to survive every time.”

“It’s not luck, but you got skills and were awesome.” Cynthia pinched his cheek and couldn’t help

touching it again because it felt good.

Alston allowed her and continued, “They sent several people to trouble me that day, but I was on a

business trip temporarily.

Gigi suffered for me. When I came back, she had already been sent to the hospital… And then she got

pregnant…”

He didn’t go into details, but Cynthia had already guessed the truth.

Those troublemakers had been discouraged by Alston, so they moved on to Gigi after knowing her

relationship with Alston.

Cynthia was silent. It was true that Alston owed Gigi. No wonder he was threatened by her with the

child.

“I have returned to Smith Group but won’t close the company there. It will be the subsidiary company of

Smith Group. Those troublemakers may come back. I am confident to deal with them, but you, Keller,

and Desmond are with me, I’m afraid you’ll be in danger.”

As Alston said, he held her hands and kissed her, “You are very important to me. I’m afraid you will be

hurt.”

He was perturbed. Cynthia sighed, “I see. I will arrange for people to protect Keller and Desmond. You

don’t have to worry about me, either. Bill and others have secretly protected me. I have learned a lot of

self–protection techniques during the past

three years.”

Cynthia raised her chin with pride, “Bill and the others taught me self–defense skills, and I have learned

well. I’ll beat them up

if I see them.”

Alston shook his head. He didn’t want Cynthia to run into those scoundrels.

“Promise me not to get rough if you encounter them. Try to escape.”

Stared by Alston, Cynthia quickly responded, “Okay, I will never be head–on. Daily Latest Chapters

get off work late or have any abnormalities, I will call you immediately. I will never act alone. I’ll have

pepper water and an electric shock baton in my bag. Those bad guys won’t get away with it.”

Alston nodded in satisfaction.

“As for Gigi… If you don’t want her to live here, I’ll let her leave, lest you get angry seeing her.”

Alston suggested. But Cynthia quickly stopped him, “No, let her stay. Although she is annoying and has

been coveting you, she has suffered for you. We have servants to take care of her, so I don’t need to

bother. It’s all right. And…”

Cynthia glared at him, leaned on his chest, and drew circles on his palm, “I’ll feel easier if she’s under

my nose. If she goes out, who knows what she will do.”

Alston was wrapped around by Cynthia, and his Adam’s apple moved. He realized how ambiguous

they were.

Their bodies were pressed tightly, and they could feel each other’s breath. Alston could feel Cynthia’s

sweet smell through his

nose.

Cynthia also realized something strange about him and hurriedly got up. They couldn’t have sex unless

Alston recovered his memory. If his memory couldn’t come back for the rest of his life, he would never

touch her.

Watching her slip away from his arms like a slippery fish, Alston was angry and had no choice. He

pulled her over, held her in his arms, and kissed her hard. It was enough.

After separating, they were a little out of breath.

Cynthia stared at him, looking seductive, “You took advantage.”

“I didn’t. I’m just enjoying the benefits of being a husband!” Alston got off the bed and straightened his

clothes. He played cool and was different from being desperate for affection.

“A fake!”

Cynthia complained, but Alston patted her butt, “Okay, let’s go downstairs to eat.”

“No. I’m on a diet!” Cynthia snorted. She wrapped her whole body in the quilt, rolling around on the big

double bed. She was like a naughty child instead of a strong businesswoman.

Alston worked hard to pull her out of the quilt. He pinched her slender waist and frowned, “You’re so

skinny. Why on a diet?”

“I’ll look prettier. What woman doesn’t want to be skinny?” Cynthia refuted with her lips pouted.

Alston kissed her and said vaguely, “I’m hungry. Why don’t you accompany me to dinner?”

Alston and Cynthia went downstairs intimately. Greg had already had the rice reheated twice. He was

ashamed when he saw them be inseparable.

He ordered servants to serve the food and left.

While eating, Alston fed Cynthia from time to time. In the end, Cynthia found she was full. She glanced

at Alston resentfully, “I shouldn’t have dinner today. It’ll be your fault if I gain some weight.”

“You’re not fat at all but too thin. You look good even if you’re fat.” Alston touched her stomach and

found she was really full, so he quickly finished the dinner.

After they went upstairs, Gigi’s door opened a crack with jealousy on her face and ferocious in her

eyes.

Gigi had watched all of Alston and Cynthia’s interactions. She did not expect Alston would be patient,

and he doted on her so

much.

Gigi held the doorknob fiercely, and her eyes were red with anger. She had known him for three years

and had never seen him

smile.

“Why is there a huge difference between people? Cynthia already has so much. Why couldn’t she give

Alston to me? It’s

despicable,” thought Gigi.

Gigi resented Cynthia but forgot Alston was Cynthia’s. If Beau hadn’t saved Alston, they might never

have any intersection in

this life.

The next day, Greg deliberately arranged for Gigi and Cynthia to have meals separately. Cynthia didn’t

see Gigi all day, so she was refreshed and in a good mood.

And she could settle down to read. Before she knew it, it was night..

Just as Cynthia closed the book, the cell phone next to her rang, and it was Alice!

She smiled in surprise and quickly answered the phone. Then she heard Alice’s excited and clear

voice, “I’m back. And I’ve reserved a box in Aroma. Come on. I have told Helen. Let’s have a good time

tonight. I got something good for you.”
