My Sleeping Beauty Husband by Lyanna Nichols Chapter 201 Escaped

Hulda was very calm. She didn’t afraid of his questioning, nor did she sneak into his arms coquettishly

and hurriedly flattered him.

“Ivan, I went to see my brother today. He said he wanted to see me.”

Ivan asked bluntly, “You left at noon. Why did it take you so long to see him? It’s already 8 pm.”

After Cherry cheated on him, Ivan’s personality became more extreme. He hated when someone lied to

him, and he kept Hulda around with an extremely restrictive attitude.

Hulda panicked because she was afraid that Ivan would know about her seeing Alston. Even though he

said he would make it up to her, she didn dare to risk irritating him..

“He wanted to ask me for money. He took me to a remote place and tried to rob me.” Hulda said with

fear. “Then, someone drove him away. The place was too remote, and I couldn’t get a taxi. So I wasted

a lot of time walking.”

As she spoke, she showed her red and swollen ankle, which got injured when Burnell pushed her.

She needed to add truth to her lie so that Ivan would easily believe her.

Sure enough, Ivan waved at her with a better expression. Hulda hid her disgust and leaned against his

chest.

Ivan played with her hair. His fingers were cold, and his voice was hoarse. “Hulda, I trust you. But you

know, I hate people lying to me the most. I will make you miserable if I find out what you are hiding from

me. Do you hear me?”

Hulda’s face turned pale, then she nestled in his arms and murmured obediently.

Ivan was very satisfied with her attitude and decided to show some mercy. “I said I would compensate

you, but I don’t think you like the things I gave you very much. Tell me, what do you want?”

“Anything?” After a long while, Hulda looked up at him cautiously.

Ivan raised his eyebrows. “You have something you want?”

Hulda swallowed. “I want to work for Tansy Group!”

Ivan was quite surprised. Who would want to work when they had a lot of money? He knew Hulda was

just a gold digger, but she wanted a job instead of money, which was kind of suspicious.

Ivan didn’t speak. His expression was strange and complicated.

Hulda knew he didn’t believe her and began to doubt her again. So she hurriedly said, “Ivan, I admit

I was a gold digger. You let me stay at home and obey you, but I have nothing to do all day, and is

nobody I can talk to. I’m very bored and depressed.”

“You are so busy at work and always come home late. Sometimes I can’t see you for days. I want to be

by your side all the time. Please let me be your assistant and help you with your work. I studied abroad

for many years, so I’m quite capable.”

After speaking, she looked expectantly at Ivan.

Although Ivan didn’t know what she was planning, he was very satisfied with what she said. So the

nodded. “Okay. Come with me to the company tomorrow morning.”

Ivan thought there wouldn’t be any trouble in letting Hulda be an assistant.

Hulda felt excited and leaned against Ivan’s chest again, lowering her eyes and hiding her gloomy

expression.

After Alston met Hulda and investigated Burnell, he found that Burnell and his men left Fort when

Cynthia was kidnapped, so he believed Hulda’s words even more.

That night, he took people to Burnell’s house.

Burnell’s parents opened the door and saw a strange man rushing into their house with some others.

They looked at them warily in shock. “You… who are you?”

Alston frowned and looked around the house. It was a small place with two bedrooms and one living

room. It seemed less than fifty square meters, but it had a lot of stuff inside.

“Where’s Burnell? Let him out!”

The old couple looked at each other and became more nervous when they knew their son was in

trouble.

“He’s not at home.” Burnell’s mother blocked the door and screamed. Then, she was about to shut the

door.

The people behind Alston pushed the door by force.

Burnell’s mother staggered. “What do you want? Are you trespassing? I’ll call the police to arrest you!

Help! Someone’s here to rob me!”

She yelled loudly and drew much attention. Several families peeked out, but they immediately shut the

door when they saw Alston and his bodyguards, who seemed rather scary.

Mrs. Taylor was not popular in the neighborhood. Her whole family was very mean and stingy, and her

son was an uneducated gangster who made the neighbors uneasy. Therefore, nobody would like to

help them.

Alston looked at her coldly. This old lady seemed very mean and unfriendly, and she was probably

wwwy troublesome

But her threat was useless for Alston and his men. Before Alston could say anything, the bodyguard

behind him said, “Stop shouting. Do you think someone will come to rescue you when you shout out

loud? Call the police if you want. Believe it or not, even if you call the police, your son will be arrested

instead of us.”

Mrs. Taylor didn’t dare to speak anymore and shank behind her husband. This strange man was either

rich or powerful, and they dared not to mess with him.

It was all that troublesome kid Burnell’s fault!

Mr. Taylor gritted his teeth. Then, he went forward and smiled flatteringly, “Gentlemen, Burnell is not at

home. He hasn’t come back today. He often sleeps outside and rarely comes home. If you don’t believe

me, feel free to search.”

Alston winked at the people behind him, and someone broke into the house and started searching

carefully.

After a while, several people came back and shook their heads. “He’s not here. But his room is messy,

and his closet is quite empty. He probably noticed something and ran away.”

Alston frowned and asked the old couple, “Where does he usually like to go?”

They shook their heads. “We don’t know either. After he grows up, he doesn’t let us know about his

affairs. We don’t know anything. We don’t even know how he messed with you.”

Alston looked down at them. The old couple huddled together, and seemed like they had suffered a lot.

With such a son, they were meant to suffer for a lifetime. Alston needn’t do anything because they were

already doomed.

“Let’s go!” Alston left with his men. The old couple sighed in relief and immediately closed the door.

As soon as the door was closed, Mr. Taylor became delighted. “Fortunately, Burnell left with his

luggage in the afternoon. Call and ask him to hide for a few more days. We will let him come back

later.”

Whenever Burnell committed a crime, he would escape with the same method and end up as if nothing

had happened. They thought it would be the same this time, but they didn’t know Burnell had offended

Alston.

Alston and the others went downstairs. The bodyguard behind him asked respectfully, “Mr. Smith, what

should we do now?”

“Keep a close watch on this place. That couple has spoiled Burnell for many years and let him do

everything he wants. We checked before and found that Burnell had caused a lot of trouble, but they

covered for him. So, they probably want to cover for him again. Burnell will definitely come back. Keep

an eye on him.”

The bodyguard behind him agreed and left a few men to watch over the house.

Then, they went to the houses of Burnell’s friends and found that they had all escaped.

Alston became furious. He made this decision temporarily, but how could Burnell and his friends know

in advance?

Meanwhile, Burnell and his friends were hiding in a cornfield on the outskirts of Fort. They had hidden

here many times and had never been found. It was surrounded by crops, so they didn’t have to worry

about eating and drinking. It was an excellent shelter to hide.

“Burnell, what should I do? My mother called me and said that a group of people had come to look for

us. It must be Alston.” A man held his phone nervously. The thing they feared the most actually

happened.

They thought the kidnapping incident had passed, but Alston started investigating again. They didn’t

know what to do now.
