I'm Richer Than My Billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 553 What else can you do?

Alina was as calm as ever.

She said, "No, you've always wanted to kill me."

Vanessa, "..."

Hearing these words, her brain was buzzing even more. There was no doubt that what Alina had said was not wrong, if not for Max's protection.

If Max hadn't picked up on what she was doing to Alina's parents, she probably would have done the same to Alina over the years.

Just as she was about to shout something to the other of the phone, Alina had already hung up the phone.

Alina didn't want to talk to her further.

Although Andre was busy these days, he spent most of his time with Alina, after all, it was a critical period for Alina now.

He was worried about Alina's accident, and the current situation in Eglinton may be beyond her inner range of acceptance.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

"Did she call and scold you again?" When Andre was about to come in just now, he heard Alina on the phone.

Even from a distance, he could hear Vanessa's anger heaving on the other of the phone.

Alina, "Now what else can she do to me but scold?"

She seemed calm, but in reality her heart fluctuated a lot, as long as she thought of the time before when Vanessa even tried to make a move on Andre, she was pissed off. Previously, when it came to her grandmother and parents, she was able to comfort herself that everything might not be as simple as she saw it.

Perhaps there was something else behind it, but when Vanessa admitted it herself, even admitted it to Andre.

Between them, they stand utterly on opposite sides of the divide.

"Alright, I need to go to the company." Seeing that Andre didn't say anything, Alina didn't want to continue saying anything. She got up and headed out.

The matter of the Collins family now is the most difficult for Alina to face, but something she has no way to escape.

Andre understood the pain she was in and therefore let her go.

Alina now has a brand that has a lot of clout, so the factory is expanding these days.

Seeing her rare appearance at the company, Brandon handed her an invitation and said, "This is an invitation to the fashion show over in Oklens, and wants to invite you to be a judge."

"A fashion show?"

"Yes."

After the last time her designs were customised, her influence in the circle has now risen.

Alina nodded, "Okay."

"So I'm replying?"

"Go on."

Brandon left and Alina looked at the invitation with little other emotion.

Vanessa is not destined to make any trouble this time, and Andre has handed over the evidence he has to the police for investigation, so she believes that soon Vanessa will have the same end as Emma. Chester, after going back to Ingford and then returning to Eglinton afterwards, never contacted her again.

No one knows what Chester is really like this time, and neither does she.

But the fact that he was engaged to Annie is good for Alina, even if it has come to this point between her and the Collins family.

She still did not want to hurt Chester. So he can now be with another woman and forget about her.

This is the outcome she wants most.

In the evening, Alina returned home.

Megan was already taking Penny to dinner. Penny was always in a sullen mood lately and when she saw Alina, her eyes were red. "What's wrong?"

"She's been like this since she got back, and she doesn't eat as well as she used to." Megan said with some heartache.

For the elderly, children are the best as long as they play well and eat well.

The child has always been raised by Megan, and now that she has lost her appetite, Megan is naturally heartbroken.

"Mummy." The child choked up and called out to Alina, while Alina's heart ached in an instant as she held the child in her arms, "Tell Mommy, what's wrong?" "Am I really a child without a father?"

Alina subconsciously looked over at Andre, who was not the one who picked up the child today and obviously did not know what was going on.

And every word the child said now was muffled and heavy for Alina.

Complicated, she looked to Penny to say something, yet in the child's eyes full of hope and some fear.

She was surprised that she didn't know how to answer the child in this instant.

"Penny."

"And I right?"

This child has always been very clever and even managed to go from Shirling to Ingford to find her.

And Chester had given the child so much hope before, and now, all that hope was lost in the child.

Alina has always known for this girl, what she actually wants most is a complete family. Although she didn't say it before, she actually envied the children of others who had a father.

And now, Chester briefly gave her happiness and now took it all back, which was undoubtedly cruel to Penny.

"No." Alina now responded feebly.

"But why doesn't he come and see me anymore?" The child lowered her head, her tone muffled.

Alina, "..."

Why doesn't Chester visit her anymore?

She actually doesn't know, after all, after he went back up to Eglinton, they up to now did not make a phone call.

Even with this came the announcement of his engagement to Annie, and overnight they went from being the closest of all to having nothing to say to each other.

"Penny, only mummy, okay?"

"No, I want mummy and daddy." The child wailed and cried.

And Alina, in this instant, only felt something in her chest cavity shatter.

Seeing Alina's instantly white face, Megan hugged Penny in her arms, "What nonsense are you talking about, hurry up and apologize to your mother."

"Great Grandma, I just want mummy and daddy together." The child was crying in Megan's arms.

Alina's heart was smothered and heavy, and it was heaving.

Her face was white.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Megan coaxed the child to go upstairs first, and Alina and Andre were left alone in the dining room.

Alina's heart was still heaving, and her whole world seemed to have been turned upside down as a result.

She was wrong.

"Don't think too much." His voice rang out, interrupting her thoughts.

Alina looked woodenly at Andre and said in a somewhat tight tone, "I was wrong, I thought that if I gave her all my love, she wouldn't need any other love."

п

"I..."

"Alright, don't say anything." Looking at Alina's painful appearance, Andre stopped her.
