My Sleeping Beauty Husband novel (Cynthia and Alston)

Chapter 227 Vicious Plan

Henry fled to Jadney City and the only person he could rely on was Ivan, but he still had such a bad temper and dared to scold Ivan. Didn't he fear Ivan would be mad?

Thinking about this, Hulda leaned on the door and continued listening.

Unexpectedly, Ivan was not angry, but he said apologetically, "Sorry, I misjudged. I thought Alston wouldn't help Cain. After all, he also coveted Cynthia. Please stay here these days. I will find you a better place when it's safe."

Seeing he apologized, Henry calmed down a little. He nodded reluctantly and agreed with him.

"Your house is still too small. It's even smaller than the garage of my family in Coast City. The decoration is also very shabby..."

Hearing Henry's complaints, the veins on Ivan's forehead bulged and the anger surged up in his heart. But he managed to restrain his anger. He had to endure it, for the sake of Tansy Group.

After Henry grumbled for a while, a trace of sternness appeared on his skinny face. "1 heard you bought Cynthia's 45% shares in Miller Group before?"

"Yes!" Ivan frowned and was confused about Henry's question.

Hearing this, Henry relaxed his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I will help you crack down Miller Group. Then you can hand over all its shares to me. I have a lot of resources in my hand, and I just need a platform. When I get a new identity in Jadney City, I don't have to hide anymore."

He seemed to take it for granted that he could take anything from Ivan.

Ivan clenched his fists tightly. Henry was pampered in the George family. He didn't know what his situation was right now. He was defeated by an illegitimate son and kicked out of Coast City while he was so arrogant in Ivan's place and dared to grab things from Ivan openly.

Ivan spent so much money to get the 45% shares. It would take a lot of effort to make Miller Group go bankrupt. He didn't believe Henry would help him a lot. Henry couldn't even ensure his safety. Tansy Group was the one which could really help Ivan.

Although Henry was haughty, he was not stupid and he noticed the displeasure on Ivan's face. He smiled and said, "Don't worry. I won't let you help without a reward. When the Miller Group is taken over, half of my resources will be given to you and it will strengthen your power a lot. When the time comes, you will have the chance to fight Alston and Smith Group. As long as you knock down the Smith Group, Jadney City will be our world."

Ivan sneered when he heard this. Henry was too ingenuous. "Let's put aside Smith Group first. When we left, the Smith Group did suffer a setback. But according to its development over the past two years, we can't figure out its real strength. I've been Alston's cousin for so many years. I know how capable he is. Besides, don't forget, Lorenz and the Green Group are also in Jadney City."

Henry waved his hand casually. "Don't worry. Once the Smith Group is down, Lorenz won't fight us because of a useless person. Although he values Cynthia so much, he is sparing the feelings of the Smith family. I don't believe he cares about a cousin who was found halfway. I heard that the Green Group approved of Cynthia very much and will give her a lot of property. Do you think Lorenz would be willing to share those things with Cynthia which belongs to him before?"

Henry's tone was full of confidence. He knew well enough that there was no brotherhood or kinship between the rich and powerful families. So he wouldn't believe that Lorenz would fight them for Cynthia. It dic no good for him at all.

Ivan was convinced, especially because he was very interested in Henry's resources.

"The last time I came to Jadney City to propose to Cynthia, I was humiliated by Alston. This time, he deliberately exposed my location and I'm almost killed. It's time to settle up all of this. I'll make him suffer a lot."

Speaking this, a trace of hatred flashed across his face. "Doesn't he love Cynthia so much? I'll let him feel what it's like to have something taken away from him."

"What do you want to do?" Ivan looked at him suddenly.

Henry glanced at him with a smile. He had investigated what Ivan did to Cynthia before. He knew Ivan had some feelings for her. He said, "Calm down. It's just a woman. When you crack down on Alston, you will have anything you want."

Ivan still had some fear in his eyes. But he gave in facing the appeal of success. Henry was right. It was just a woman.

"While Alston is not with Cynthia, I'll have someone tie her up and sell her to a remote village. The men in that place are all poor bachelors. With Cynthia's pretty face, there must be many people drooling over her." Henry smiled viciously when he thought of that scene. "When she is played by those men, I will lure Alston to find her. At that time, facing such a dirty woman, I don't believe that he will still pamper her. And the Green family will also stay away from this woman."

After he finished speaking, he recalled the photo of Cynthia wearing a violet evening dress and looked a little pitiful to Cynthia. But it might be her destiny because she was Alston's woman.

Hulda heard all this. She was flustered with a pale face. Henry was too ruthless. If a girl experienced this, she might be desperate and lose hope of living, especially someone like Cynthia who was stubborn and had a strong self-esteem.

They were going to ruin Cynthia's whole life!

She had to tell the news to Alston and Cynthia. Hulda made this decision in an instant. She hurriedly turned around and wanted to leave, but she forgot she was still holding the coffee.

The coffee splashed on the back of her hand and it was burned red in an instant.

Hulda subconsciously gasped which alerted Ivan. He immediately shouted, "Who's outside!"

Hulda's face turned even paler. She wanted to flee quickly. But a strong force grabbed her neck from behind after a few steps.

She turned her head slowly and met Ivan's dark eyes. It was all over!

"How much did you hear?!" His voice was cold as if he would crush her neck if she said a word.

Hulda was trembling all over. Even her teeth were shaking. "I... I didn't hear... anything."

Henry also came out of the study slowly. He was wearing a simple white t-shirt and casual pants. He looked young and slender as if he was a college student who had little experience of life But Hulda shrank more fiercely when she thought of what he said in the study. He was not simple but cruel, stupid and vicious!

Henry looked at her trembling with a smile and said casually, "So why are you trembling if you didn't hear it?"

Hulda's hands and feet became even colder.

"Tell me the truth!" A storm was brewing on Ivan's malicious face.

Obviously, he was run out of patience.

Hulda's lips turned white. She swallowed and finally admitted, "I heard it. I heard everything."

Henry's smile froze. He looked at Hulda as if he was looking at a corpse. He said to Ivan, ' Kill her. We can't afford to take risks."

Cynthia panicked and struggled desperately. She looked at Ivan with beseeching eyes. "Ivan, I've been with you for so long. I've never betrayed you. If you want to deal with Alston, I'm completely on your side. Don't you know me? I have a grudge against Alston and Cynthia. I hate them. I'll never help them. Please! Don't kill me!"

"I'll keep secret about what I heard today. I didn't hear anything."

As Hulda cried with tears all over her face and looked sincere, a trace of hesitation flashed across Ivan's eyes. He looked at Henry and said, "Mr. George, she is on my side and won't betray us. Please let her go."

Henry glanced at him and yawned. "Whatever! As long as she won't derail my plan."

Seeing this, Hulda breathed a sigh of relief. Before she reacted, she was thrown to the ground by Ivan. He said, "As we live with each other for so long, I will spare you this time. Stay at home and don't go anywhere."

After finishing speaking, he entered the study and slammed the door shut.

Looking at the closed door, Hulda felt as if she had survived from the hell. It seemed she couldn't act rashly these days. Even though she knew their plan, she was not sure when they would act, which was a bi tricky.

She could only tell Alston later until the right time.
