Chapter 549 Now, you talk to me about love?
Annie, who had had a sad face in Ingford because she hadn't seen Chester, now heard that over in Eglinton, Chester had personally announced the engagement with her. A smile immediately appeared on her face, and under her eyes was undisguised excitement, "Sis, I made it."
Not unlike Annie's excitement, at the moment Macy frowned.
She knew exactly what Chester's attitude towards Annie was, and now with this announcement of engagement, no one knew what was implied behind it.
"Annie."
"Sis, I'm really happy, you know? I thought he'd never marry me in his life."
Married?
Now it's just a matter of announcing the engagement.
In Macy's heart, Chester had always been a deep person, so now this engagement was announced, no one knows what kind of situation is hidden behind this.
"It's just an engagement now." Looking at Annie with such excitement, Macy originally did not want to upset her.
But she always felt uneasy.
Especially if Chester really liked Annie, because of all the tactics that Alina had used on her before.
He would not have been so ruthless to her, yet it was this same ruthlessness that made Macy understand, Chester had no feelings for Annie.
This engagement, therefore, is a happy event for Annie, and possibly a sad one.
"Sis." Hearing Macy say this, there was a bit of displeasure in Annie's tone.
It was, after all, the happiest thing she had crashed into.
Annie, "So should I go and meet Mrs. Collins now?"
"You're really stupid at some points."
Mrs. Collins lost her reputation.
Whoever comes near Mrs. Collins at this time will be disgusted by Chester, so what is Annie doing to see Mrs. Collins at this time?
"In future, there is no need to take this prospective mother-in-law of yours to heart."
"Okay."
Annie nodded obediently.
In fact, she knows it all in her heart. It is still not the case that she needs to be supported and protected by her sister.
After all, the road ahead with Chester is still a long one, and now is just the beginning, who knows what scenes will happen next?
But now that it has begun, it is not so easy to end it between them naturally.
"Go and pack your things."
"Okay."
Although Annie knew very well that this engagement wasn't really that simple, she was naturally happy as long as she could see Chester and in this way. Annie went upstairs like a happy bird.
A glint of gloom flashed under the eyes of Macy.
The phone vibrated, and when it was Vanessa calling.
She picked it up, "Mrs. Collins."
"Tell Annie to come and see me at once."
"Is something wrong?"
"I have something very important to tell her." The tone of Vanessa was unsteady.
Obviously everything happened so suddenly that all the composure on her before was completely overturned at this moment as well.
Macy knew very well what Vanessa wanted to say to Annie.
She said in a helpless tone, "Chester told her to go to Eglinton immediately, we are already at the airport and will be boarding the plane soon." The breath on the other of the phone was heavier.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Collins, how about I go and see you?" Hearing no words on the other of the phone, Macy said deliberately.
However, the tone on the other of the phone was indifferent, "No need."
After saying that, without waiting for Macy to say anything else, Vanessa hung up the phone.
And under the eyes of Macy, there was no trace of the politeness towards her, there was only sharpness.
Vanessa knew very well what Chester's announcement of his engagement to Annie now really meant that he had abandoned her.
It was a reckoning, that left Alina well without a care in the world.
"Chester!" Softly murmuring this name, she burst into tears.
Vanessa over the years, no matter how many children she had, was always partial to Chester.
If Caleb hadn't been sick, her love would have been almost all around Chester.
Because, he was a special presence to her, and no matter how exactly Alby had tormented her over the years, she had always protected this child.
No one knows what price she paid to keep Alby from at least letting Chester know that he was not a Collins family member.
However now ruined.
Everything was ruined, all by Alina, whom Chester had placed on his heart.
She hated, and the monstrous hatred in her eyes was all for Alina.
Alina's number flashed on the phone, and Alina picked up, "Mrs. Collins, it's surprising that you still have time to call me now." "Alina, you will go to hell."
Vanessa gritted her teeth with every word.
As far as she was concerned, Alina deserved to die.
She cried.
All these years she only shed tears in the midnight, at this moment in the phone, her voice can not help but have a choke.
"At least, Chester loves you, how can you be so heartless?" In doing this, did she really not think halfway about Chester?
"Yes, Chester loves me so much, I'm the one on his heart, how can you be heartless too?"
Alina asked sharply in return.
Back then, knowing that she loved Chester so much, she would never have expose Vanessa's scandals that had absolute influence over him. Why didn't Vanessa believe her? Why did Vanessa drive her to extinction? Even those sinful hands went so far as to reach out to her parents? "Now, you talk to me about love?" Alina said sarcastically.
Vanessa, "..."
She, at all costs, cover this up in the deepest depths, even to the point of hiding it in the dirt.
Alina, "You're already planning to take strike at Andre, aren't you?"
Vanessa, "..."
At the words, her brain went blank.
How did Alina know it? She did it so stealthily.
However what she didn't know was that Alina actually didn't know anything, everything was her guess.
Looking at the way Vanessa doesn't let her go now, she knows that her bloodstained hands will surely reach out to those around her again.
Back then, she could secretly kill those that protected her, so now, surely, she can do it too.
After all, no one knows exactly who is behind her and how far that person is capable of going.
So much so that she had to make the first move.
