I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 536 Conflict

Tomas nodded, "Yes."

The already dangerous aura under Caleb's eyes was heavier at this moment, and surprisingly, they didn't even come back to the Collins Castle.

"Find out what father has been doing abroad all these years." Back then, he took away his elder brother.

But his elder brother stayed there for a short time, after which he was arranged by his father to go to Eglinton, and from then on it was just Romeo and his father abroad.

He doesn't come back very often throughout the year, and basically doesn't come back as long as it's nothing major.

But in the past, when grandpa was around, every time he came back, he stayed at the Collins Castle, and this is the first time he has come back since Grandpa's death.

Despite all the efforts to pretend to be harmonious over the years, he and Chester had long seen the discord between their father and mother, but this time not only had his father not returned to the Collins Castle, but even Romeo had not returned either.

"Yes."

Tomas nodded.

Because of this report, it was bound to get more involved.

Even Alby's perversities over the years now all seem to be out of the ordinary.

"Why don't you just ask Madam?" The moment he got into the car, Tomas couldn't help but ask.

And speaking of Vanessa, there was even a flash of danger under Caleb's eyes.

She was not telling the truth.

So much so that every word she said was suspicious.

"Go check it out." Caleb said as he pinched his brow.

Tomas nodded, "I mean, see what Madam says."

Vanessa certainly has something to hide, and things have come to a head, they all know that things have not been simple over the years.

But at this juncture, then what would Vanessa say?

Ingford is now in chaos, everyone dare not show anything different to Vanessa on the surface, but in the end, their hearts are not the same as before.

In particular, Caleb and Vanessa didn't say anything when they met at Collins Castle, they knew every thing.

Chester came back to Shirling.

Alina did not expect Chester, at this time, to come to her. Seeing him, Alina put down the spoon in her hand and stood up to walk to the side.

If it had been in the past, Chester would have stepped forward and embraced her from behind.

This time, however, he didn't.

The tree outside the floor-to-ceiling window is now drenched in rain and the dew on it looks so melancholy.

The aura grew heavier and heavier, and even without looking, Alina felt his gaze.

Chester, "You all leave first."

Glancing around at the servants, he gave an icy command.

Yet those present did not move, all subconsciously looking at the back of Alina, who said, "Go on."

Permission was granted and all walked away.

Soon, only Alina and Chester were left in the dinning room, and the already heavy air was now even colder. The whole dinning room was as quiet as if a pin dropped on the floor and could be heard.

Chester walked to the table, pulled a chair and sat down.

"Don't want to see me?"

Caleb broke the silence first.

In this instant, Alina's hands clenched into fists and her body trembled.

Chester added, "How much more do you know?"

From the moment the report came out, Chester realized how the conflict between Alina and Vanessa had started.

Even looking at all this now, and the reaction from Vanessa, she can conclude that what Alina knows is far more than this. Alina closed her eyes, "A lot."

Even know that Chester doesn't even know about it.

The already quiet dining room, at the moment, was shrouded in this layer of gloom.

Chester looked at her back, and that gaze was so burning.

For a long, long time, Chester asked, "What is it?"

Obviously, things are out of control right now, and Chester can see the stance that Alina is now taking against Vanessa.

It was like the stance of dealing with Emma at that time.

Things, now, are out of control.

Chester did not want things to continue like this.

Alina turned back and met his gloomy and serious eyes, "She has been trying to silence me all these years, what do you think I know?"

Chester was silent.

Alina's tears slid down, and the next moment she wiped them away haphazardly, she said, "Back then, she bribed Frederick for more than just destroying me, she wanted to force me to die, you know?" Chester, "..."

"Instead of driving me to death, it drove me crazy, misleading my parents into using Macy Moon to damage my memory."

How nice it would have been if everything had stopped ending at that point?

At least when she looks back on everything now, at best she thinks she was a hypocrite and doesn't try to expose anything because of it.

"How nice it would have been if it was all over then?" Her eyes blurred.

Why was she so cruel?

Chester sat stiffly in his chair and tried to get up, yet all his bones were as heavy as lead.

There was not even the strength for him to stand up.

Alina took a deep breath, trying hard to push down the stuffy weight in her heart, "Chester, I don't want to hurt you."

But now, there's no way out.

In knowing that Vanessa even went out of her way to get rid of those who were protecting her, leaving herself completely in her grasp.

The hatred in Alina's heart burned even more like a blazing fire.

Now, it had burned through her sanity completely.

Although Chester still doesn't know what exactly Alina is talking about right now, he knows just by looking at her, things, for sure, are not simple. "Abby."

"But she took the lives of my parents and my grandmother."

Chester stiffened again.

Although he had already guessed about this matter before, he didn't expect that things had really...

Things are now more than out of control, they have gone completely beyond all expectations.

Although Chester had guessed it before, when at this moment Alina herself accused it in front of him, he was unwilling to believe it.

Because of this suspicion, Chester has been checking all this time, and even asked Andre not to tell Alina.

At least don't let her suspect or even panic because of it. In fact, the one who was most panicked was him, he hoped to find out that everything had nothing to do with Vanessa.
