My Sleeping Beauty Husband By Lyanna Nichols Chapter 267


    Chapter 267 An Old Friend


    Cynthia looked very pretty and had exquisite features. Wearing a zer, she


    looked capable and gentle. She concentrated on dealing with the wound, which


    made her even more appealing.


    Her treatment was very professional like a real doctor. She quickly helped him


    remove the fabric from the wound, disinfected the wound, and sprinkled


    inmmation–relieving medicine. Then she wrapped it up with a medical


    bandage and tied a bowknot skillfully.


    After finishing everything, Cynthia had sweat on her forehead. She wiped off it


    and smiled at the man on the ground. “I briefly dressed the wound. Although it


    Enter title…


    can temporarily stop the bleeding, you should go to a hospital to re–bandage


    the medicine and get a tetanus shot.”


    When the man saw her looking over, he quickly averted his eyes and was afraid


    to meet Cynthia’s eyes. “Okay, thank you.”


    “It was nothing. It’s my duty to save people…” When she finished speaking, her


    voice froze. She suddenly realized she was no longer a doctor.


    The man noticed she was downcast. He frowned and changed the subject. “My


    name is Jakson. How about you? When I recover, I will express my gratitude to


    you!”


    “Jakson?!” Cynthia eximed, which also shocked him.


    “Yes. Anything wrong with that?” Jakson was a little embarrassed. He did have a


    bad reputation in society, but most people didn’t know him. Did Cynthia hear his


    name before?


    Cynthia had been dealing with the wound and hadn’t noticed what he looked


    like. She moved the shlight up and looked at the man carefully with the faint


    light.


    Due to excessive blood loss, his face was a little pale, but he was very


    handsome. He had chiseled features and a pair of almond eyes. His eyes were


    piercing which made people afraid to look straight at them. His nose was


    prominent and his lips were thin.


    He was quite good–looking but there was a ruthlessness in his face. Even if he


    was seriously injured, that sternness was still frightening.


    “So you are Jakson!” Surprise shed in Cynthia’s eyes. “I’m Cynthia, Alston’s


    wife. He mentioned you before.”


    When Cynthia’s mother was hospitalized, Alex regretted it. So Alston asked


    Jakson to teach Alex a lesson. He mentioned this to Cynthiater and showed


    her Jakson’s photo.


    But at the time, Alston said that Jakson rose up from the bottom. He was


    scheming and ruthless. He even warned her not to get too close to Jakson if


    she met him someday.


    Cynthia looked at Jakson’s perfectly bandaged wound with fear and wondered if


    she got too close to Jakson.


    When Jakson heard her name, he was stunned. The world was so small. The


    person who saved him was Alston’s wife!


    He and Alston had a history but they were just nodding acquaintances. He knew


    Alston had a wife who loved him very much, but he had never seen what his


    wife looked like and had never paid attention to his wife’s name.


    He didn’t expect his wife would be the woman in front of him.


    Jakson frowned and pursed his thin lips tightly. He couldn’t tell what his feeling


    now was. He felt sour and bitter, which was very strange and made him


    ufortable.


    She was already married. Jakson felt a sense of loss when realizing this.


    Seeing Cynthia looking over, he quickly restrained the emotion in her eyes. He


    said, “What a coincidence. This is unexpected.”


    Cynthia nodded. “When I was in the alley, I was hesitating and was afraid it


    might be risky. Fortunately, I came in. Otherwise, you will lie here all night and


    the wound will deteriorate. If you lose too much blood…”


    When she said this, she realized the next words might be inappropriate, so she


    hurriedly stopped. “Sorry, I was a doctor before. I used to…”


    “It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to be so cautious. Alston and I… We… we


    know each other very well!” He felt a little guilty when he said thest words.


    He and Alston didn’t know each other and they were even wary of each other.


    “But


    you should stop doing this kind of thing in the future. It’s gettingte. There are


    many unknown dangers in dark alleys. Women are particrly vulnerable.”


    Jakson said seriously.


    Cynthia nodded hurriedly. “Right. It’s dangerous. I won’t be so impulsive


    anymore.”


    As usual, she wouldn’t care about these things in a dark ce at night. She had


    a heavy heart today. The sound of gasping inside made she think of Alston.


    When she thought of Alston being injured and lying in a corner with no one


    saving him, she would feel ufortable and throbbing in pain. That was why


    she walked into this alley.


    Jakson was still lying on the ground. Hisplexion had recovered a lot.


    Looking at his face, Cynthia could tell he exercised regrly. He had a sturdy


    body, wide shoulders, a narrow waist, and six–pack abs. As he had a good


    immune system, his wound got better than before.


    Cynthia had checked the wound. Since it was wrapped, it wouldn’t worsen if he


    moved his body.


    “It’s too cold on the ground. Let me help you up. Where are you living? I’ll send


    you home.”


    Cynthia squatted down beside him and asked in a low voice.


    Jakson looked at her almond eyes and pursed his lips in disapproval. He just


    told her not to take risks and now she proposed to send a stranger home. “Does


    she really know what a stranger means?”


    Jakson thought in his mind but didn’t say it. He wanted to get close to Cynthia


    further. Although he knew she was Alston’s wife, her warmth made people want


    to get closer.


    He had longed for this kind of warmth for twenty–eight years, but he had never


    encountered it before.


    “I live in the front district. If it’s convenient, could you help me? I’m afraid I can’t


    walk very far.” Jakson pointed to the wound on his abdomen.


    The front district?


    Cynthia thought about the location. It was a high–grade residential district,


    which was on the way back to her family. So she decided to send him home.


    “No problem. I’ll help you. Be careful.”


    As she spoke, she supported Jakson to stand up. His leg was not injured but he


    needed to exert the strength in his abdomen when standing up. So he leaned


    on Cynthia’s shoulder.


    Jakson looked at her slender shoulders and squinted his eyes. When he put his


    arm on her, her shoulder trembled and he could feel her shoulder was tense


    and stiff. A smile shed in his eyes, which made him very charming.


    It was the first time Cynthia was so close to a strange man. Jakson was very


    tall. Cynthia could only reach his shoulders, which was a perfect height to hold


    Jakson.


    Jakson acted very well. Since he was really injured, almost half of his body was


    leaning on Cynthia. His bulk enveloped her. He could even hear her breath.


    This feeling aroused Cynthia’s goosebumps all over. She felt ufortable, but


    she had promised to send him home before. She couldn’t break her promise on


    the way.


    Jakson was tall, but Cynthia felt he was not heavy. She didn’t know although


    Jakson seemed to be leaning on her with most of his body, he was walking by


    his own strength and didn’t press on her.


    The two walked silently for a while. The alley was about 1,500 feet away from


    his living ce. It might be a littlete. They didn’t see anyone along the way.


    After a while, they arrived at the gate. As the residence was upscale, the gate


    was on guard for the whole day.


    Seeing theming, the guard looked over. He seemed to know Jakson and


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    his eyes were full of respect. When he saw the wound on his abdomen, his


    expression froze. He was about to run over when he suddenly felt Jakson’s cold


    gaze. He instantly understood and stood up straight at the door, pretending not


    to see them.


    He breathed a sigh of relief when the two of them passed by with the smell of


    blood. He looked at the petite figure under Jakson’s arm and clicked his tongue.


    He didn’t expect such a ruthless person to have a scheming side.


    It seemed Jakson was obsessed with this woman very much.


    Cynthia sent Jakson to his home, put him on the sofa, and put the medicine bag


    on the table.


    His house was very big and empty. The room was gray, which looked very


    depressing and cold. Cynthia felt extremely ufortable. Besides, there were


    only two of them. It was not proper to stay longer, so she wanted to leave.


    “The medicines are all in the bag. There are oral anti–inmmatory drugs in


    them. Take two of themter. I don’t know why you don’t want to go to the


    hospital, but you’d better re–bandage and change the medicine tomorrow. It’s


    gettingte. I gotta go.”


    When Cynthia was about to leave, the corner of her clothes was grabbed by his


    big hand with sharp knuckles. She lowered her head and met Jakson’s pitiful


    eyes.
