My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols

Chapter 224 Nothing Comes of Nothing

"Yes. Cynthia, we've been waiting for you. Why did you come here at this time?" Cherry echoed Jane in

a gloating tone.

Cynthia sneered and felt ridiculous. They sent the invitation and asked her to come here at this time.

Now they were asking her first.

They knew Cynthia had disowned Beck and they were bitter enemies. But they were still acting here.

Cynthia waited to see what their plan was!

"Sorry, I just came back from Coast City yesterday. I heard the news as soon as I came back. This is

hard for me. I fainted and recovered a little this morning."

Cynthia looked a little sad and her voice was choked. Speaking of acting, she was not much worse

than these two women.

Jane froze for a moment. She thought Cynthia would get mad on the spot and she had asked the

presses in advance to take a picture. But she didn't expect Cynthia was not angry but toned in with her.

Cherry's heart skipped a beat. She thought Cynthia pretended to be sad because she also wanted the

property of the Miller family.

”1 heard when he had an accident, there were only you two around. I want to know the specific detail at

that time. After all, I'm also his daughter."

After Cynthia finished, she stared at Cherry with sharp eyes. As Jane was too cunning, Cynthia couldn't

read anything from her expression. She had to start with Cherry.

Being stared by her so closely, Cherry's eyes wandered and she was flustered. Then she

subconsciously looked at Jane.

"There must be something fishy." Cynthia thought in her mind and looked at Jane.

Jane smiled sheepishly and repeated the official testimony again. Seeing Cynthia's suspicious eyes,

she pointed to the lawyer at the side and said, "If you don't believe me, ask Mr. Ross."

Calum Ross was the divorce lawyer who rushed here at that time. He was originally hired by Beck.

Since Beck had an accident and might not be able to wake up, the Miller Group would fall into the

hands of Jane and her daughter. For his own future, he could only take refuge in them.

Moreover, Jane also promised him a lot of benefits, making him willing to work for her.

Calum nodded with a serious face. "Yes. When I rushed over, I happened to see Mr. Miller losing his

feet and falling from the stairs."

Alston stood behind Cynthia and didn't speak. Judging from their eyes, he knew this lawyer had allied

with Jane and Cherry.

Cynthia also didn't believe the lawyer's words. She then mentioned another key point. "I heard dad

rush over in a fury. Could you tell me what made him so pissed off?"

Jane and Cherry both panicked. At that time, they were only focusing on Beck's slip but missed this

point. So they didn't think of an excuse in advance.

"What? Is there anything you can't say?" Cynthia smiled slightly and pointed to the reporters present.

"This is the second day after he fell downstairs while you're so anxious to have the press conference.

With so many people in this room, how could he have a good rest? Do you really care about your

husband?"

At this time, Alston also added, "I remember you are in the process of divorcing him, and you tried to

break into Miller Group many times. Everyone knew about it. I thought you were not close to each other

anymore."

They commented one after another and put Jane in a pickle. Jane held the corner of her clothes tightly

and bit her lower lip. She wanted to use the press to frame Cynthia while she didn't expect that it

backfired and she was caught out by Cynthia and Alston.

Under the eyes of everyone, Jane showed a wry smile slowly. "You don't understand. The thing

between a couple is not simple. You will bicker over many small things for your young people. We've

been married for so many years. That's quite common to have some conflicts. But after the quarrel, I

still love him."

She tenderly looked at Beck lying unconscious on the bed and tugged the sheet on him, making all the

reporters present feel moved.

Alston and Cynthia glanced at each other. Both of them had a bit of irony on their faces. Jane was so

good at acting.

"Beck and I are in the process of divorce. I believe you all heard the news about me going to the club.

In fact, I found he had a lover at that time. I was sad and angry, so I went to drink to drown my sorrow.

In the end, I was picked up home by my daughter. After so many days, I realized I'd better let him go

since he loved someone else. So I plan to divorce him and give him freedom. This is why Mr. Ross

came to our home yesterday. Because I was going to sign the divorce agreement."

As Jane spoke, she shed tears silently, portraying a sad yet tough woman who knew her husband was

cheating and resolutely divorced.

"I didn't expect Beck arrived before Mr. Ross. It was his mistress who incited him. He took the coral

ornament I gave him as a gift and broke in..."

In a few words, Jane not only cleared up the previous rumor but also put all the blame for Beck's anger

on Vanessa. She also hinted that she was the victim of Beck's cheating.

Since Beck was a vegetable and his mistress didn't come to see him, she became the good wife who

didn't abandon him.

Those presses who didn't know the truth were all wearing angry faces, especially the female reporters

who felt the same way. They hated this kind of scumbag who bullied his ex-wife and doted on his

mistress.

"That surprised me. Mr. Beck looks gentle and refined. How could he cheat on her and treat her like

this?"

"Yes, Mrs. Miller looks so pitiful. I guess that's what he deserves."

"Who is that mistress? Maybe I'll ask later. If I find her, I'll expose her in public!"

Cynthia could hear the whispers of several female reporters not far away from her. She smiled

sarcastically. Jane was quite good at making up stories. She successfully shifted people's attention

from her and her daughter to Beck and his mistress Vanessa.

"Don't believe her. She's lying!"

Before Cynthia spoke, a sharp female voice came from the door.

Vanessa was here! Cynthia took Alston's hand and stepped aside, waiting to enjoy the show.

"Stay away. Let me in!" Vanessa was blocked by the door, trying desperately to get in.

Cherry turned pale when she saw Vanessa. For fear that Vanessa would expose them, she acted fast

and shouted at the door, "She's the mistress of my dad."

"Her? She looks about the same age as Mr. Beck's daughter. I guess she's only interested in old men."

"How can they let her in? It's better to drive her out! She doesn't deserve to be here."

The guards at the door rushed over. They had told before that they should drive Vanessa out when

they saw her.

Alston gave Bill a wink, and Bill soon understood. He led his men to push aside the security guards

arranged by Jane and made a way for Vanessa.

When Vanessa struggled to squeeze in, she saw Beck lying on the bed unconsciously. Her eyes turned

red all of a sudden. She spent so much effort seducing this old man. Everything was in vain now, which

made her very indignant.

"What are you doing here? Get out of here!" Cherry was panic. She stepped forward and said to

Vanessa viciously.

Vanessa was in despair. Since she lost everything, she had nothing to consider. She pushed Cherry

away and looked at Jane angrily. "You are talking nonsense. I didn't incite Mr. Miller at all. He found the

camera you installed on the coral ornament. You've been spying on us all the time and you ruined his

businesses, so he went to find you."

Jane frowned her mind was a mess but she was still calm on her face. She sneered at Vanessa and

said, "You seduced my husband and tried to slander me here. How could I spy on you? Are you saying

I'm interested in your disgusting lives with my husband? How ridiculous."

Vanessa was so angry and didn't know what to say. As she was a mistress, people wouldn't believe her

no matter what she said.

When she saw Cynthia standing next to Alston, her eyes lit up.
