I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 527 Just a fish

And this matter now has become a complete mess, because it is not clear who actually set them up.

What's more, they don't know who has such uncanny ability to make it happen when Chester never went back to Ingford. They too don't know what the people behind this are up to.

"If you can, I really hope you stay away from Alina and don't wreck her again." Andre looked solemnly and icily at Chester.

In Andre's opinion, no matter what the purpose of the person behind that was, the person who suffered the most right now was Alina. Chester, "..."

Without waiting for him to speak, Andre continued, "But now that things have come to this point, it is evident that it was not your mother's doing alone."

After all, the whole thing that was hit hard was the relationship between Chester and Caleb.

It was the time when the Collins family's relationship fell apart, and the people behind this were clearly after the entire Collins family.

Andre looked at the instant sharp coldness under Chester's eyes and continued, "But it's related to her."

No one knows what kind of feud is involved.

Andre added, "I am afraid that there is more involved than just the death of Alina's parents and grandmother."

But now they are all wise, and since it had all happened at that time, it would be impossible to say that it was a coincidence that was not related.

"Abby has been very suspicious of this matter all this time, hasn't she?" Chester was not a fool.

Feeling how distant Alina had been from him for some time, he knew that he could not be ambiguous on such a big matter.

Andre, "How are you going to make her face you when she suspects that things are connected to your mother?" Chester, "..."

That's what stings the most.

"No matter how you really are to your mother, that is your mother." And in Alina's heart, this matter could not be compromised.

Chester, "You're checking for her, aren't you?"

Andre, "..."

"I know that you will support her." Once Alina really knew it had something to do with his mother, once things do come out in the open.

Then, Alina will not rest in peace, even if that person is Chester's mother, she will not let go easily.

Andre, "She has a right to know everything."

"If she suspected it from the beginning, why did you have to hide it?"

"Don't tell her about the child now." Chester didn't answer Andre's words, but raise his request.

The child is the most painful part of their relationship.

Thinking of Penny's innocent face, Andre said, "Your mother is a sinner."

If it was true that Mrs. Collins had something to do with this, what did she do? And why did she do that?

On the matter of the child, Andre really could not bear to tell Alina.

After all, she would be quite unable to face once the truth comes out, and once she knew the truth about the child, she would then be completely on the horns of a dilemma, and how would she face Chester?

Andre had Declan to find out anything.

It is about sifting through what exactly can and cannot be told to Alina.

However, accidents do happen.

This day Alina went to the office to look for Andre, who was not there, and met Declan who came to look for Andre.

Declan saw Alina, "Alina, you are here for Andre?"

"Yes, Declan."

Alina smiled politely as Declan looked at his wristwatch, "I gotta go."

"Wait a minute, Declan." Alina turned around and stopped in front of Declan.

Declan, "What's wrong?"

"Have you made any progress on the matter Andre asked you to look into for me?"

Declan came here because of this matter, thinking that it was Alina's business, so he didn't intend to hide it.

And now, since Alina took the initiative to ask, Declan answered, "Let's talk in the lounge."

His face was stony, and as Alina watched, her heart stuttered, and she knew that what he had found out would not be good.

In the lounge.

A full two hours.

When Andre learnt that Declan had come to see him and was in the lounge with Alina, he panicked.

Immediately, he called Declan's number, however, the signal at his company's lounge was quite bad, so no matter how many times he called, he could not get through. Anxious as a hot pan, he called the receptionist who said the two had been talking in the lounge for two hours.

At that moment, Andre only felt a headache.

He called Chester, who picked up, "Hello."

A magnetic, steady voice came through.

Andre, "Something is wrong."

"What?"

"It's probably Alina has known about the child."

Chester froze.

His heartbeat missed half a beat.

Although in this matter, he wanted to tell Alina time and again, but definitely not at this time.

Once Alina knew about the child, how could she bear the things that followed, if there was something deeper?

Now, she is still struggling to hold on, once she knows, then what kind of blow will this be to her?

"What's happening?"

"I did not explain to Declan, and they've been talking in the lounge for two hours." Andre was already going crazy.

Now he headed for the office.

How much is two hours enough for two people to talk?

Chester was shocked after hearing that Alina and Declan had been talking to each other for two hours.

"Two hours?" Chester had always had everything in his hands, and now he couldn't help but ask this in a wooden voice.

Andre only felt a brain ache.

Alina had been standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a long, long time, gazing longingly at the traffic below the tall building.

She had never been so lost in thought, and she could not wait for to fall off this tall building.

Her face was pale and her heart was heaving even more, "You mean that Penny actually...'

Alina did not have the courage to say it, and she was trembling all over.

Alina had never felt that she was meat on a board, but now, knowing all this, she only felt that she was the dying fish, at the mercy of others.
