My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols

Chapter 229 The Truth about Death

Cynthia was stunned. She looked up at Alston in disbelief. Did you hear that Keller called me Mom!"

Alston was also surprised. His face was filled with excitement. "Yeah, I heard it! I heard it!"

They lifted Keller up and teased, "Call me mom, Keller, call me again."

Keller looked confused and made some sounds, but he didn't call "mom" as they wished.

Alston held Desmond and teased him, but Desmond was lazy. Keller could crawl, but Desmond didn't

even bother turning over.

They teased Keller for a long time. But they were disappointed that they didn't hear the word 'mom'

again. Especially Alston, he was looking forward to hearing the babies call him dad.

Looking at his dejected look, Cynthia put her arm around Alston's shoulders with a smile, and kissed

his cheek, "They will call you after a while, and you can definitely hear them calling you 'dad'."

Alston saw her smug smile, he lifted her up suddenly. Seeing her startled look, he smiled, "The babies

don't call me 'dad', but their mother could do it."

Cynthia was shocked!

"Oh, dear! What are you talking about? I've never seen you like this!" Cynthia exclaimed inside.

Before she could react, Alston took her back to the room and threw her on the bed.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. Cynthia only wore a light dress. Lying on the bed, the dress

clung to the curve. She looked at Alston with a sweet smile in her eyes. Alston couldn't help but take a

deep breath.

She was so charming. He could never resist her temptation.

There was a long romantic night, and it did not stop until the early morning.

Cynthia blearily turned off the alarm. Looking at the empty side, she rubbed her waist and slowly sat

up. When she moved, her waist and legs felt sore.

She swore quietly. Alston seemed to turn on some kind of switch last night, he was so full of energy. If

she hadn't repeatedly asked for a stop, she wouldn't know if she would be able to get up today.

Thinking of how he forced herself to call him 'dad' several times last night, Cynthia felt ashamed, and

her cheeks flushed.

Time passed by in days. The Green Group and the Smith Group were in the good running as usual.

But the Miller Group was much more difficult.

Although Beck was not skilled in company management, he could keep the Miller Group’s regular

operation. But Jane and Cherry did very poorly. They had never run a company before and had no

professional guidance. After taking over the Miller Group, they appointed many relatives who knew

nothing but money.

Within a month, the Miller Group was on the verge of bankruptcy. At this time, Tansy Group bought the

shares of Miller Group and continued to put pressure on Jane.

After a month of intense work, but with no money left, Cherry was the first to be defeated. She didn't

listen to Jane's words and didn't want to wait any longer. She just wanted money. If she inherited the

Miller Group, but had no assets, and even had to pay off the debt, she would rather she had not taken

over the Miller Group.

After thinking for a long time, she decided to meet Cynthia.

Cynthia had sold her own shares and bought hundreds of millions, and with the Smith and the Green’s

attention to her, she had innumerable money. A few of her properties were enough for her to live for

several years.

Cherry made up her mind and began to contact Cynthia secretly. But Cynthia blocked her and refused

to answer her phone anyway.

She used many numbers to connect with Cynthia, but Cynthia hung up right after she heard her voice.

Cynthia was getting rid of her and avoiding her, which embarrassed Cherry very much.

Cynthia was also irritable at this time. Alston told her about the current situation of the Miller Group.

When Cherry called her, she knew her intentions, but she didn't want to get involved in this trouble. She

hung up and blacked her. However, Cherry was very patient and used many numbers to call her, which

was annoying.

At this time, she received a call from Cherry again. She was about to hang up the phone, but Cherry

seemed to know this and shouted, "Do you want to know how your mother died?"

As soon as Cynthia heard this, she paused and stood up suddenly. She grabbed the phone, "What did

you say?"

Cherry sighed with relief when she heard that Cynthia was willing to listen. "You love your mother, and

she died for no reason. Don't you want to know who killed her? Don't you want to get revenge?"

Cynthia's eyes turned ice-cold. All the evidence found before proved that it was Jane and Cherry who

had killed her mother, but Cherry said it frankly at this time. So, the murderer was someone else?

She couldn't figure it out anymore, so she asked patiently, "What do you know? What do you want?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, Cherry said, "If you want to

know, we can meet and talk!"

After saying the address, Cherry hung up the phone. Cynthia was angry and very eager to know the

truth about her mother's death. It seemed that she had to go to see Cherry.

The meeting time was at about seven o'clock. Cynthia went there after getting off work. The coffee

shop was remote, and there was a traffic jam during the rush hour. She didn’t arrive until an hour later.

When she arrived, Cherry had been waiting for her a long time. The coffee shop was small, and there

were almost no guests.

As soon as Cynthia sat down, Cherry complained, "You are late. I have been waiting for you for almost

an hour."

"The place is remote, and there was a lot of traffic." After Cynthia said this, Cherry was silent. For fear

that Jane would find out, she found this coffee shop specially. She didn't dare to go out during working

hours, so she sneaked here at night to meet Cynthia.

"What will you take?" Cherry intentionally flattered Cynthia and handed over the menu.

Cynthia didn't order. She pushed the menu back, then stared at Cherry, "No, I'm not thirsty. Get to the

point."

It was rare for her to please Cynthia. She felt a little annoyed at being ignored, but she didn't burst out.

"I want to talk a deal with you first."

Cynthia frowned, but she knew that it was impossible to get information from Cherry for nothing. She

said coldly, "Say it!"

"I'll give you the inheritance rights of the Miller Group, and you give me 40 million dollars. How about

it?" Cherry couldn't wait to speak, and her face was full of expectation and excitement.

Cynthia frowned, "Have you told your mother about this?"

"How could Jane hand over the Miller Group to her?" Cynthia thought.

As she expected, when Cherry heard this, her face was filled with impatience. "Don't worry about her.

The Miller Group is mine, and I am the sole heir. I can do what I want."

Cynthia sneered, "You know better than me what is going on with the Miller Group. Not to mention that

it is not worth 40 million dollars, and I am not interested in it at all. This is no bargain. If you don’t want

the company, you can sell it to the Tansy Group which is willing to buy the Miller Group's shares."

Cherry gritted her teeth. No matter how stupid she was, she knew that the Tansy Group hated her and

Jane. It was dangerous for her to sell the shares to them, and there would be a great loss.

"Cynthia, you have no choice in the matter. If you want to know the truth, you can only accept my

requirements!"

Hearing this, Cynthia clenched her fists, but there was no change in her face. She smiled. "Oh, who

knows if you're lying to me. If I gave you money, but your information is false, then it will be my loss."

Cherry remained silent for two minutes as if she had finally made up her mind. She took out her mobile

phone and showed Cynthia, "It's real, I did not lie to you! I know who killed your mother. She died after

drinking a large dose of sleeping pill. The monitoring at that time was destroyed, but I keep a piece of

surveillance video. Here's a screenshot, check it out!"
