"After I was frustrated with you, I set my target on Ivan... He is a playboy. He had an obsession with Cynthia, and I happened to look like her, so it was easier for me to attract him."
As she said, she felt a little guilty. Then she looked up at Alston and found his face expressionless, saying, "But at that time, Clare had decided to let Cherry and Ivan get engaged. I... I know it's impossible to win over Cherry with my identity and past. I've had enough hard times, and I only wanted to climb the social ladder. I knew Cherry liked you, so I came up with an idea... I asked her to drive a wedge between you and Cynthia."
The cup in Alston's hand cracked with a phut, making Hulda startled. Seeing the veins on his forehead stand out, she couldn't help shaking.
She knew Alston was angry. If she were him, she would be furious too.
"I'm sorry, I had the wrong mind at the time. It was my fault. But I just came up with the idea to let Cherry drive a wedge between you two. I didn't let them kidnap Cynthia."
Alston wiped off the blood on his palm with a handkerchief and looked at her expressionlessly. "Have you left any evidence?"
He and Cynthia knew well before Jane and Cherry kidnapped her, but no evidence had been found. All surveillance videos had been cleaned up, and the people sent by Jane had not been found. All evidence had been eliminated. Even if they knew Jane and Cherry were the masterminds behind it, there was no evidence to convict them.
Hulda shook her head. "The kidnapping was their temporary idea, and I didn't get involved, so I don't have any evidence. But..."
Her eyes were raised and bright. "I know who they sent to kidnap Cynthia!"
"Who?" Alston frowned.
"It's my brother, Burnell. The man who just argued with me and wanted to grab my bag!" Hulda said the name with a complicated expression.
Alston's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at her indifferently and suspiciously. "Hulda, I know your family maltreats you, and your brother even grabbed your bag just now. You may not be able to deal with those people now, or you may be reluctant to deal with them. I wonder if you deliberately said the person who kidnapped Cynthia was Burnell to stimulate me to handle him in person." Hulda's face turned pale, and her pupils dilated for an instant. She knew she could not hide her thoughts from Alston, but fortunately, the person who kidnapped Cynthia happened to be Burnell.
"It's the same as you said. I want you to handle my brother, but the person who kidnapped Cynthia was indeed Burnell. I gave Cherry a coat of yours and Burnell's contact information. I told them if they needed help, they could find him."
She swallowed and almost stood up because of anxiety. Then she hurriedly explained, "What I said is true. The Miller Group needed money at that time. Burnell was just a gangster, and four or five people were under his command. The reason why they came to Burnell may be due to the fact that they wanted to spend less Chapter 200t Served Her Right

money, and it was hard to find those gangsters in the low status, so they came to Burnell."
"After Cynthia was rescued, my brother and his subordinates went out to hide for a few days. They came back when they found they couldn't be found. At that time, he used up his money and borrowed money from me several times. If you don't believe me, you can check his records. Everything I said is true!"
Alston stood up quickly and was about to leave. Seeing Hulda lower her head, he stared at her with sharp eyes. "You have never said this before. Why are you confessing to me now? What is your purpose? You should hate Cynthia and me very much. Why do you want to help us?"
Hulda hesitated for a moment and smiled bitterly. She couldn't help but think how bad she was before, making Alston distrust her to such an extent.
"Alston, I can assure you that what I'm telling you is the truth this time. I did hate you and Cynthia, but after going through many things, I suddenly understood a lot. Now, I don't have any hatred for you. What I hate more is Cherry. She caused me to have a miscarriage. I lost my child. I was looking forward to the arrival of that child, but Cherry ruined everything."
As she spoke, her eyes were red and filled with hatred. Alston didn't see anything wrong and took a deep look at her. "Hulda, you should have a better life, but it's a pity that you put your hopes on men." After Alston finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Hulda watched the tall and straight figure. He drove away in a hurry. Then she heaved a sigh of relief.
The sun was setting slowly, and the light gradually disappeared, just like Alston vanished from her life.
The first time she saw Alston, she felt the heavens must send him to save her. At that time, he was popular at school and surrounded by praise and admiration. However, she was in the mire. Her parents valued boys over girls and treated her with beating and scolding. She couldn't bear such a life.
It just so happened that Alston helped her at that time. When her parents came to make trouble at school, it was Alston who helped her out.
Alston didn't get close to anyone at school, but he helped her. She felt he must have a good impression of her. This kind of illusion gave her hope, making her greedy.
She tried her best to get close to Alston but found his attitude towards her was the same as towards others, indifferent and ruthless. She even felt it was her fantasy that Alston helped her. The colder Alston was to her, the more unwilling she felt, so she spread rumors that Alston had a relationship with her.
She did not expect the rumors to intensify. They had few conversations, but in the end, the stories became
Alston loved her like his life. Rumors spread throughout the school. She had been waiting for him to find her, but finally, his mother came.
His mother took out the money and forced her to break up with Alston. Thinking of this, Hulda couldn't help laughing mockingly.
At that time, she and Alston were not together at all. If they were together, she would still have the confidence to say Stella insulted her and refused the money. But she didn't. She didn't have the backbone. She needed the cash to get rid of her greedy family, so she accepted the money and went abroad.

After returning, she found Alston had married a girl, and he loved that girl.

She refused to admit the fact in her heart and was even more jealous that Cynthia could get Alston's love. Then she tried every means to misguide her and drive a wedge between them. As soon as Hulda thought of what she had done before, she felt she was very hateful. She was a terrible woman. She finally became the person she disliked most.
What Alston said was right. With the degree and experience of living abroad, she had enough ability to live a prosperous life on her own. She would be no worse than anyone else. However, she put all her hopes on men. The first was Alston, and then Ivan.
Not only did she not live better, but she also lost herself.
"Miss, sorry to bother you. Our store is closing."
A reminder came from her ear, and Hulda woke up from her stupor. She turned her head to look out of the window and found it was already dark. She wiped away the tears on her face and smiled at the waiter. "Sorry, I will go right now!"
The road here was relatively remote, and it wasn't easy to get a taxi at night. As Hulda walked out of the coffee shop, she suddenly saw a car parked at the door. The driver waved at her, "Miss Taylor, here. I will drive you back."
The driver's words brought Hulda up short. "Who? Is Alston asking you to send me back"
"Yes! Mr. Smith said this road is remote, so he sent me to take you back as a reward." The driver didn't know what Alston meant, and he just repeated the original words.
Hulda smiled, and her tears welled up at once.
She was right. Alston was always a very gentle person. Even if their paths didn't cross at school, he would still stand up and help her when he saw her being embarrassed. He could do the same for anyone. People who can be loved by him must be pleased. Therefore, Hulda would sometimes still be jealous of Cynthia.
Hulda shook her head, let go of these thoughts, and asked the driver to send her to the community gate. Before she got out of the car, she said, "Please help me relay my words to Alston. There is no need for rewards. I owed him."
After she finished speaking, she walked towards the community. When she got home, she found Ivan already sitting on the sofa. After seeing that she had come back so late, a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.
"Where did you go? Why did you come back so late? Who did you see?"
