Chapter 20 You Misunderstood

“Mrs. Smith, you are awake!”

Greg heard her scream and rushed over in surprise.

Cynthia stared at the ceiling, and there was still despair and panic in her eyes.

After a long time, she rolled her eyes, looked at Greg, and asked in a hoarse voice, “I’m not dead?”

“Of course, you’re not dead.” Greg looked at her pale face, and she was no longer as lively as usual.

When Cynthia heard this name, she looked behind him but didn’t see Alston. Her eyelashes drooped, covering the sadness in her eyes.

Cynthia was short of breath and coughed violently. The wound tore again, and the blood suddenly

flowed out.

The nurse was startled. She had stayed in the hospital for two days and saw Mr. Smith take care of Cynthia without resting.

Thus, she called the doctor to treat Cynthia’s wound immediately.

Greg gave the nurse a reproachful look and explained to Cynthia, “Don’t listen to her nonsense. Mr. Smith has stayed with you for two days. He went to Miss Taylor’s ward because she had some other matters. He will be pleased to know that you are awake. I’ll go and find him.”

“No need!” Cynthia waved her hand and stopped him with an indifferent expression. “Greg, you have taken care of Alston for many years, so you must know this Hulda. I want to know her relationship with Alston.”

She came straight to the point and asked. Greg paused for a second and said, “Mr. Smith and Miss Taylor had a relationship when they were in school…”
