Chapter 25 Just A Free Servant
Helen had an operation to do, so she didn’t have time to say goodbye to Cynthia. She only asked the
nurse to give Cynthia a message, asking her to get well and go back to the hospital as soon as
possible.
In the end, Greg arranged a car to get Cynthia back home, and Alston never showed up from beginning
to end.
Cynthia’s expectations gradually cooled down, saying nothing all the way. And she was not in a good
mood.
Soon, they arrived home. Greg commanded the servant to carry the luggage, and Cynthia walked into
the living room leisurely.
Stella didn’t go out shopping or play cards that day, which was quite rare. She was sitting in the living
room, drinking black tea. When she saw Cynthia walking in alone, she mockingly smiled.
“Oh, Cynthia? I thought it was a guest. But it turned out to be you. How dare you come back?”
Cynthia was about to go upstairs when she heard that. She paused and said, “How dare I? I didn’t do
anything that made me too embarrassed to come back!”
Stella snorted coldly, slamming down the cup in her hand. She said with a strange tone, “Everyone
knows that you were kidnapped. Do you know what they are saying about you? Do you know the Smith
family is humiliated because of you? How shameless are you?”
What they were saying about Cynthia?
Cynthia was stunned. She had been in the hospital for so many days, and Greg didn’t tell her anything
about it. She didn’t know the whole world knew it already.
Noticing that Cynthia was stunned, Stella continued, “They all know Alston chose to save that woman
and shot you. As his wife, don’t you think you’re a total failure? You’d better be smart and divorce my
son. Don’t embarrass yourself more. Well, you don’t have to worry about your future
life. We’ll compensate you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCynthia turned extremely pale. She bit her lip, trying to control her emotions.
“I respected you because you’re my husband’s mom. And you exactly know why I was kidnapped. I’m
still a member of the Smith family. You don’t really have to handle those rumors, but you really
shouldn’t threaten me now. This is too much.”
have
Hearing that, Stella sneered, “A member of the Smith family? Who do you think you are? I agreed to
you instead of your sister marry into our family, but it was only because Alston was in a coma, and I
wanted a free servant for my son. Now he’s fine. We don’t need an extra servant. Do you really
think I will let a bastard be my son’s wife?”
So in Stella’s eyes, Cynthia was just a free servant.
Cynthia felt hard to think at that moment. Her heart couldn’t even beat. She didn’t know what to say.
Alston’s mother said so. What would he say?
Did he see her as a free servant? Did he only want her because he needed her? Now he was fine, and
his favorite first love returned. He didn’t need her anymore. Was she bound to be abandoned by
him?
“Mrs. Smith, your room is ready. Please, go upstairs and have a rest.”
Just then, Greg interrupted her thoughts.
Cynthia hurried up the steps like she was escaping. Yet just after two steps, she turned around, gritting
her teeth, and looked at Stella.
“I will only leave when he wants to kick me out. I won’t divorce him. No matter what you say or how you
threaten me!”
After that, she ran back to her room without waiting for Stella’s reply.
Stella was so angry that she stood up directly and shouted, “Alston was just being nice to you! Don’t
flatter yourself. Let me tell you this. Hulda’s back! You won’t stay here for long!”
Hearing that, Greg frowned tightly.
He thought, “She is really good at making things difficult for Mr. Smith. Well, I guess misunderstanding
between Mr. and Mrs. Smith will only get deepened.”
“Madam, I’m afraid Mr. Smith won’t be happy when he hears this.”
the
Greg tried to remind Stella, but Stella glared at Greg, “Are you telling me what I should do?”
“I am not.” Greg lowered his head, but he didn’t make himself humble, “Mr. Smith talked to you. once.
And I thought you knew what you should say and what you shouldn’t.”
Stella remembered Alston’s warning to her before, but she didn’t take it seriously. Stella thought that
she was the mother, and Alston wouldn’t do anything to her no matter what she did.
“Are you saying that I’m not qualified to say those things as Cynthia’s mother-in-law?”
Greg wanted to roll his eyes, actually. Stella was Cynthia’s mother-in-law, but not a good or nice one.
He wondered how Stella grew up in the Brooks family. She was too ill-bred to be a Brooks.
Alston and his father were all gentlemen, but Alston’s mother was too rude, just like a savage. Greg felt
sorry for them.
When the Brooks family and the Brooks family were about to unite by marriage, Alston’s father was
marrying Stella’s sister. However, Stella used some dirty tricks. As a result, she was pregnant, and
Alston’s father had to marry her for the sake of the baby.
Stella was vulgar and always unreasonable. She had nothing more than her pretty face. After Alston
was born, she never took care of him for a single day. She only did the shopping and had her own fun.
She was not close to her husband or to her son.
Now that the Brooks family was in decline, she could only rely on Alston. She was old, but
unfortunately, she was still that stupid.
Greg sighed, looked up, saw a tall figure enter the door, and paused, “Mr. Smith, why are you
back?”
“Don’t try to threaten me with Alston.” Stella thought Greg was making it up.
Alston unbuttoned his cuffs and looked tired, “Just coming back to fetch something.”
He scanned the living room but didn’t see Cynthia. He was disappointed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella didn’t expect that Alston really returned. She was so scared that she turned pale.
“What were you arguing about?” Alston said in a low voice. Before he entered the door, he heard Stella
yelling at Greg, which make him really irritated.
Stella wanted to speak, but Greg said it first. He made everything clear in a few words.
Alston’s face suddenly darkened. He was always cold, but when he was not in a good mood, he
looked even scarier.
Stella was also scared and couldn’t help but take two steps back.
“Greg won’t lie to me!” Alston said coldly, “I warned you last time not to say those things to Cynthia. You
didn’t understand my words, did you?”
“Alston… it’s not like that… It’s Cynthia’s fault. She was being disrespectful to me…”
Stella trembled, trying to explain, but Alston stopped her from saying more.
“Greg, freeze all her bank cards and inform all luxury stores. From now on, they don’t have to send.
new products to our family every month.”
Alston coldly commanded, and Greg soon started to act. He took out his phone and called those luxury
stores one by one.
Stella was always vain, and all her interests were in shopping. Now all her bank cards were frozen, and
those luxuries were gone. She suddenly collapsed and went crazy.
She glared at Alston and shouted loudly, “Alston, I’m your mother. It’s unfilial of you to do this to
me for her sake.”
Alston turned his head and looked at her coldly, “You’re my mother but not a good mother. You think I
would still be filial to you after what you did?”
Stella was shocked for a while. She was so mad that she trembled with anger.
Alston didn’t even look at her and turned upstairs, “Also, in my heart, your weight is far less than
Cynthia’s, so don’t compare yourself with her in the future. You won’t win.”
Stella looked at his indifferent back. Suddenly, she lost her strength, and her chest was constantly
fluctuating with anger.
Greg finished the phone calls and glanced at Stella, “Madam, I just warned you.”
It was a pity that she didn’t take it seriously. Technically, Stella deserved to be treated like that.
Greg then turned around and left. Behind him, Stella smashed the cup on the ground.
