My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols Chapter 170 The slightest Clues Cynthia returned to the ward. Just as she walked to the bed, Alston wrapped her waist and dragged her onto his bed.
Her body was tense, and she didnât even dare to move. She shouted, âAlston, what are you doing? Youâre still on the drip!â
Alston took her into his arms and found that she had lost a lot of weight. She had gained some weight after she gave birth to the children, but now her waist was even thinner than before she was pregnant.
The distress on his face was almost overflowing, and he buried his face in Cynthiaâs neck. âThe IV bottle is empty, and I pulled out the needle.â
Cynthia looked down and saw the needle hanging beside the bed. She breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
âI heard from Lorenz that you havenât eaten or slept properly for several days, no wonder you are so thin.â His voice was hoarse and gentle. âClose your eyes now and have a good sleep. I will let Mrs. Lewis prepare some food, and you can eat when you wake up.â
He touched her bloodshot eyes gently. âIâm sorry, and I will take good care of my body in the future. I am not alone now because I have you and the babies. Iâll think twice before I do anything, and I wonât make you worry again.â
As he spoke, he kissed Cynthia lightly on her forehead. He didnât hear her reply, so he looked down and found that Cynthia had already fallen asleep. Her white and tender face was buried in his arms, and she slept soundly.
Alston sighed and took her into his arms. Soon, they fell asleep together.
Greg thought the infusion might be over, so he came in with some doctors. However, he saw Alston and Cynthia were sleeping soundly, and the needle on Alstonâs hand had been removed.
He backed out silently and left the ward with the doctors.
They slept until nightfall. Cynthia opened her eyes and found that Alston had disappeared. She sat up in a daze, hugging the quilt. And her mind was still in a buzz because she had just woken up.
Alston came in and smiled when he saw her dumbfounded look. âCynthia, youâre up.â
âYeah.â Cynthia turned to look at him. âWhere have you been?â
âI just went for a checkup. The doctor said I needed to stay for one more night. If everything is fine, I can leave here tomorrow.â
Although his fever was severe, Alstonâs health was in good condition. Therefore, he recovered rapidly..
Alston was holding a lunch box. âI met Greg just now. He came here to deliver the meal. Mrs. Lewis made a soup for you, as well as some dishes that are easy to digest.â
Cynthia was fully awake. Her eyes lit up, and she left the bed and walked over.
Alston had already poured her a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her. It smelled delicious, and Cynthia was starving. So she took the spoon and started to eat.
After Cherry gave birth to her child, she became a great hero in Clareâs family. She went to Tansy Group, and everyone knew she was famous because she gave birth to a son.
She felt a bit smug because everyone admired her and respected her. And she felt that her momâs idea was brilliant.
She took the time to go back to the Miller family and found that everything was different. The flowers and trees in the Get Bonus courtyard were neglected, and the house was also quiet. Only a few servants were busy.
âWhere is my mother?â Cherry frowned, looking at the simple furnishings in the living room. In the past, they would buy new furniture every year. But these were still the same as a year ago, and some even seemed old.
âWhy these havenât been changed? They are dirty.â She asked the servant.
The servant looked embarrassed. âMr. Miller used to change them, but he never came home recently. He didnât send money back home, so we donât have enough outlay. Plus, our salary wasnât paid last month. Miss...â
Cherry couldnât bear the shame of being asked for the salary by a servant. She succeeded in Tansy Group, but her family couldnât even pay the servantâs salary. People would jeer at her if they found out.
She took out the card that Clare had given her and handed it to the housekeeper. Then, she asked him to pay the servantâs salary and change the furniture in case someone would come over and jeer at her.
After dealing with these matters, she asked again, âIs my mother at home?â
âShe is not here and often stays out at night these few days.â The servant received the salary and became more enthusiastic.
Cherry frowned and wondered if her mother cheated as well.
She let the servant leave and went upstairs to her parentâs room. Beckâs stuff was all gone. Her face darkened, and she snorted coldly. It seemed like Beck had already moved to live with that mistress.
What a shameless man.
She sneered and called her mother. After a long while, someone finally answered it. However, it wasnât Jane, but a man she was extremely familiar with.
âRaglan? Why are you with my mother?â
She was startled. She gripped the phone tightly, and her face was full of disbelief. What happened between her mother and Raglan??
Raglan laughed and said hoarsely, âYou overthought. Although Iâm quite despicable, Iâm not insane.â
Cherry felt relieved. Thank goodness. Otherwise, she wouldnât know how to face Jane in the future.
âThen why are you holding my motherâs phone?â
Raglan looked at the middleâaged woman who was drinking and having fun with a group of men; his eyes were cold and mocking. âYour mother is in our clubhouse, and she is having fun now. But she is a little drunk. Do you want to come here to pick her up?â
Cherry sighed. Jane actually went to that kind of place. âLook after her. Iâll be there soon. Donât let the others bully her.â
Raglan agreed and hung up the phone. He threw it on the table, sat on the sofa, and looked opposite at Jane, who was forced to drink by some men. He was silent, but he was smiling, ironically..
Cherry grabbed her sunglasses as a disguise and sneaked into Raglanâs clubhouse. When she entered the box Raglan mentioned, she found that only Jane and Raglan were left inside.
The table was full of wine bottles. It seemed that they had drunk a lot.
Raglan was sober, but Jane was so drunk that she was hanging on Raglanâs body.
Cherryâs pupils shrank, and she rushed over to help Jane up. Then, she looked at Raglan sternly. âDid anything happen between you and my mother?â
âWhat do you think?â Raglan smiled mischievously. He was handsome, but he didnât look like Alston at all.
Cherry said impatiently, âIâm not joking with you. Tell me.â
Raglan shook his head. âNo. I slept with you before. How could I have anything to do with your mother!â
âGood!â Cherry said. She helped Jane to stand up and walked out slowly.
Raglan followed behind her. âDo you want me to help?â
âNo need!â Cherry refused. She had just given birth to Raglanâs child. At this moment, she didnât want to have anything to do with him at all. âStay away from me.â
Raglan smiled, pretending to be pitiful. âYouâre so heartless. I helped you so much, yet you became so rude.â
While speaking, Cherry had already reached the entrance of the clubhouse. She said impatiently, âItâs just a deal. I asked you for help, and I gave you the money. Donât contact me again, no matter what happens!â
Raglan raised his eyebrows and felt disgusted when he saw Cherryâs chubby waist. âI heard you had a premature birth a few days ago. You shouldâve been staying in bed instead of coming here.â
Cherry felt guilty, and she immediately exploded. Her voice was sharp. âItâs none of your business! The Tansy Group is wealthy, so I recovered rapidly. Whatâs the problem? Raglan, youâre just a dirty gigolo. You have no right to mind my business!â
After speaking, she put Jane into the car and drove away.
She fled away without noticing Huldaâs shocked face opposite the clubhouse.
