Chapter 528 The truth about the child
Chapter 528 The truth about the child
For a long, long time, Alina just stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and the bitterness on the corners of her mouth was getting thicker and thicker. Finally, trembling, she said, "Just who did our Hughes family offend so badly?"
Ruthlessly, he went out of his way to lay such a big trap behind her back, putting her in between the two Collins brothers and making her suffer.
Even now Alina is thinking that the meeting between her and Chester, falling in love was set up by the person behind the scenes a long time ago. Declan, "This matter still has to be investigated, after all, it is still unknown who actually touched the freezer of Master Chester."
"So whether the person behind this is coming for you or for the Collins family is yet to be seen."
The person who most hurt by this when it came out was her.
Alina's face grew whiter and whiter, and the sharp storm under her eyes exploded at this moment.
"But no matter who it's aimed at, this has something to do with Mrs. Collins, does it?"
"That's true. But the person Mrs. Collins contacted is not the real person behind it."
"You mean that the person Mrs. Collins contacted has a boss?"
"Yes."
But no matter who it was, the incident had something to do with Vanessa.
"The person that Mrs. Collins had hired back then was someone under Frederick's hand, she just didn't expect that Master Caleb..."
This is where Vanessa miscalculated.
Hearing this, a flash of danger flashed under Alina's eyes. Why on earth had Vanessa colluded with the people behind it to make such a big trap for her? Vanessa hated her and wanted to drive her to madness and death. But she didn't expect to get Caleb involved, thus dragging the Collins family down with her. Just now, as Declan said, back then Vanessa just wanted to make Alina disappear, but what about the person behind her?
Did she herself really see ir clearly?
"What about my parents' death?" Alina closed her eyes.
It was the secret behind Vanessa that made her feel what it means to have a truly sinister heart.
No matter how much Vanessa had actually set her up, she hoped that her parents' death had nothing to do with her.
Declan, "Now all these things still have to be checked."
It's just that even Declan didn't expect such a big thing to turn up.
How much more is behind this?
Alina, "Please."
"You're welcome." Declan got up.
Alina was calmer than expected, probably because she was originally suspicious before, so when the matter was laid out in front of her, she was prepared. But even as she endured everything, deep inside her heart there was a tumble that made no one see.
Declan was on his way out.
The moment he pulled open the door, he saw Chester standing in the doorway full of coldness.
Declan frowned and walked past Chester, with more or less sympathy and pity in his eyes at that moment.
The moment Alina saw Chester, her heart was suffering from the storm.
Chester stepped forward and gripped her shoulders with both hands, "What did he say to you?"
He asked urgently.
He understood that two hours was enough time for Alina to know everything, and he was too scared.
Alina's cold hands grabbed his strong, powerful wrists, and what came out of her eyes was different from his panic. There was pain and helpless under her eyes.
"You already knew that, didn't you?" Her tone was soft, but with stoicism.
Chester, "Abby."
"I married to Caleb and was pregnant with your child."
"Abby."
When he heard these words, Chester's heart completely panicked, and he knew that Alina now knew about the child.
To conceive the child in that way, it was an absolute shock to them as well.
In his arms, feeling the warmth of his chest, Alina closed her eyes, "Chester, seeing you treat Penny so well, how I wished you were her father at that time."
It was true.
But how, exactly, was the child conceived?
Why was she not Caleb's child?
Once this matter is known to the world, Alina suddenly panicked.
This matter was not over yet.
Does the person behind this hate her or the entire Collins family? Why did he use such a vicious way to take revenge?
"Abby, leave this matter to me, I will definitely shred that person to pieces." Chester had obviously thought of the worry in Alina's heart as well.
As she thought, it is not over yet.
The person behind that is probably still waiting for Penny to grow up and for the recognition between Penny and Caleb.
And that was the time that would have dealt them all a desperate blow.
Good thing, though, that they now perceive it in advance, when Penny is still very young.
But if the person behind that is not found, this matter will probably be in greater trouble.
Alina, "No matter who is behind that, this matter is related to your mother, don't you know?"
Alina came out of his arms forcefully and coldly.
After all that had happened, it was the first time that Alina had faced Chester with such a cold and icy attitude.
And when Chester felt this coldness of Alina, his heart choked violently.
"Abby."
"When I knew about Frederick, I wanted to break her into pieces, and now..." Alina looked at Chester, with unconcealed hatred under the eyes.
For the sake of Chester, therefore she stayed away from Ingford, hoping that this matter would be over.
But now, when she knows that even Penny...
"She doesn't know the truth about Penny." Chester said as he grabbed Alina's cold hand.
Alina, "You defend her?"
"If she knew that Penny wasn't Caleb's daughter, she wouldn't have let you take the child back."
"Is that so?" Alina shook off Chester's hand, and all that came out of her eyes was pain.
Chester's speculation now becomes defending Vanessa in Alina's eyes.
