My Sleeping Beauty Husband By Lyanna Nichols Chapter 269
Chapter 269 A Blood-stained Shirt
Jane’s eyes were red and she choked with anger. “I did all of this for you! I want
you to marry into a good family. Why are you so ungrateful?”
Seeing her crying again, Cherry became more annoyed. Jane was not as calm
and stern as before. Since the Miller Group was bought by Henry with 40
million, Jane changed a lot. She forced Cherry to do what she didn’t like. If
Cherry didn’tply with her, she would cry and whine.
Cherry couldn’t bear her anymore.
“Mom, can you stop doing this? Since my old friends knew our group is gone,
they all started to disappear. I can’t find anyone. They’re all snobs. Even if I y

up to them, they don’t care. We have bought the house and still have more than
20 million. It’s much more affluent than before in the Miller family. Why do we
push ourselves so hard?”
Seeing Jane wanted to say something else, she quickly raised the phone in
front of Jane. “Alright. Let’s not talk about this. I’ll show you some good things.”
Jane’s attention was instantly attracted. She took the phone and looked at it.
Seeing Cynthia’s familiar side face, she was stunned. “This… this is Cynthia?”
“Who else it would be!” Cherry smiled triumphantly. “When I was about to go
out, I saw hering out of the house next door to us. If I remember correctly,
the owner of the house is a man.”
Jane also remembered she had seen the man next door before. The man was
tall and sturdy,
handsome features. But his face was full of hostility and he looked difficult to get
along with.
Jane was afraid of getting into trouble, so she nevermunicated with the
neighbors. with very
Cynthia gossiped with Jane in a low voice. “I’ve seen that mane back
covered in the blood several times. I don’t know what this man does, but
Cynthia walked out of a strange man’s room at the midnight. Isn’t it suspicious?”
“Interesting. Alston hadn’t been missing for long while she can’t stand to be
alone!”
Jane took a deep breath and asked, “You mean Cynthia had an affair with the
man next door?”
“Isn’t that obvious?!” Cherry said confidently, “At midnight, what would they do
when a man stays with a woman? It seems that she is not as faithful to Alston
as I imagined.”
After hearing this, Jane returned the phone to her. “What are you going to do
with the pictures?”
“To threaten her! She has so much money. We should use it to ckmail her,”
said Cherry.
Jane shook her head in disapproval, “I don’t think so. You know the thing about
Tansy Group, right? re and Ivan were both imprisoned for 15 years. And
Tansy Group was taken over by Smith Group.”
“So what?”
Seeing her disapproval, Jane poked her forehead angrily. “I found out this was
all designed by Cynthia. She didn’t even give a chance for Tansy Group to react
and take over it directly!”

“How could it be!” Cherry’s face was full of astonishment. “She’s just a woman.
How could she make it! It should be the others of the Smith Group who came up
with the n!”
Jane rolled her eyes and said, “Don’t underestimate women. They are very
ruthless when cornered. Ivan nned to kidnap you before and now Alston is
missing. It touched Cynthia’s bottom line, so she put all her eggs in one basket
and brought down the Tansy Group.”
Cherry opened her mouth and didn’t close it for a long time. She stared nkly
at Cynthia’s slender back in the phone and didn’te back to her senses for a
long time.
“How is it possible? How did she do that?”
Jane said, “Use your head. Cynthia now is living much better than us. Will you
ept the fact?”
Cherry pursed her lips, with jealousy shing in her eyes. She couldn’t ept
this. She used to live an extravagant life. Take luxury cars. Wear clothes worth
more than millions. Attend all kinds of parties. She was always the center of
people’s attention.
She looked down at the shiny silver slip dress and felt more disgusting about it.
After a long while, she murmured, “Mom, maybe I should listen to you.”
Seeing Cherry was willing to listen to her, Jane showed a pleasant smile on her
face. “I’m so happy to hear that. From now on, cut off contact with those cronies.
Take care of your skin and face and get in touch with those boys in the previous
circle.”
Cherry nodded and was going to remove her makeup and change her clothes.
Jane followed her and warned, “Cynthia is under the media’s attention. Don’t
show these photos in public. Although we can’t use these photos to threaten her
now, they will be useful someday. Like, when Alston is found, he will alienate
Cynthia if you show him these photos. By that time, I bet he won’t love that
b*tch. anymore.”
What she said made Cherry more excited. Her eyes lit up as if she was
imagining Alston being disgusted with Cynthia and driving her out of the house.
“Mom, you are so smart. I’ll do as you say!”
At this time, Cynthia didn’t know she was filmed when she came out of Jakson’s
house. She also didn’t know the conspiracy between Jane and her daughter.
She walked through the gate with the coat in her arms and saw the lights were
still on. And some people were walking in the house.
“Greg, it’s sote. Why didn’t you sleep?” Seeing Greg summon Bill and some
bodyguards, Cynthia asked curiously, “What happened?”
“Mrs. Smith, you’re back!” Seeing Cynthia, Greg almost burst into tears. He
finally rxed after worrying about her all the night.
“Lloyd said you left thepany at ten o’clock. And you told us you would walk
back. It would talk half an
hour to walk from thepany to our house. You still didn’te back at
midnight. I thought it was Tansy Group’s men who wanted to hurt you. So I’m
going to let Bill and others look for you.”
Seeing so many people in the living room, Cynthia felt a little guilty. “I’m sorry. I
have something to deal with. It won’t happen again. I’ll call you in advance if I
“That’s okay. I’m d you’re fine!”
After Greg Lin finished speaking, he noticed she was holding a man’s coat and
his brows furrowed.
It was a ck water–proof jacket without any patterns. It looked simple and
cool, which would never be the style of Alston. He remembered Lorenz would
also not wear this style of clothes. Then whose was the jacket?
After thinking about it for a long time, Greg wanted to ask but didn’t dare to.
Cynthia didn’t pay attention to his expression. She handed the coat to Joyce
who was beside her. “This is someone’s coat. Clean it tomorrow. I need to return
it to him!”
“Uh, okay!” Joyce quickly took the coat.
The lights in the Smith family were as bright as day. As Cynthia handed out the
jacket, the blood–stained white shirt was immediately revealed.
Joyce noticed it as she was close to Cynthia. She screamed, “Mrs. Smith, why
is there so much blood on your shirt? Are you injured? I… I’ll call the doctor!”
Her voice was loud, attracting Bill and others who hadn’t left yet. They all
stepped forward anxiously and looked at the blood–stained shirt seriously.
“It’s human blood. Mrs. Smith, where did you get hurt?”
“Who dared to hurt Mrs. Smith? Guys, let’s teach those b*stards a lesson.”
“Hurry up and call the doctor. It will be critical if the wound is severe.”
They were all talking at once without giving Cynthia a chance to exin. When
Greg managed to squeeze in and saw the blood on her shirt, his face darkened.
“Bill, call the doctor!”
Bill hurriedly rush towards the door quickly. Cynthia finally couldn’t bear it
anymore. She called out to stop Bill. “Bill. No need. The blood is not mine. I am
not injured.”
???
The living room fell silent for an instant, and everyone looked at Cynthia
wonderingly.
Cynthia was moved by them but also felt it a little funny. “I wasn’t injured. I met a
friend of Alston on the way. He was injured. I bandaged him and sent him home.
That’s why I got the bloodstains. Afraid of scaring others, he lent me his clothes
to cover the blood up!”
After hearing this, Joyce breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Cynthia and
said in a reproachful tone,
“I see. Why don’t you tell us earlier? We’re worried sick about you.”
Greg didn’t speak. He noticed it should be a man judging from Cynthia’s words.
But he didn’t figure out who he was among Alson’s friends.
He let out a sign in his heart.
“Mr. Smith, you got to get back. There are too many wolves around Mrs. Smith.
If you don’te back, she will be taken away by them!”
