A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 104

Alina was not interested in meeting Sophie. 

However, Silvia glared at her angrily. "You don't know what's good for you. My mother even told me to get along well with you in the future. Is someone like you worth my time?"

Hearing Silvia's words, Alina's heart began to beat faster.

Inwardly, she hoped to get Sophie's approval. After all, she was Scumbag's mother. 

She followed Silvia to a luxurious room.

When Sophie saw her, she sighed and changed her usual cold attitude. "Have a seat!"

Although her expression wasn't friendly, Alina was pleasantly surprised. At the very least, she wasn't glaring at her nor ridiculing her.

She sat down and said politely, "Thank you, Auntie!"

Sophie frowned again in disgust and sat down opposite her. She poured a cup of tea, pushed it across the table, and said impatiently, "Drink this!" 

"Thank you, Aunt!" Alina immediately held the teacup in her hands and took a sip to show respect. 

Sophie suddenly spoke up. "What should I do for you to leave my son alone?" 

With a single sentence, Sophie dashed Alina's hopes. She was truly naive to have thought that the meeting this time would have a different outcome. 

She composed herself and said, "Auntie, Wilson and I really love each other. We will not be separated!"  

With that, Alina didn't say anything else. She was afraid that she would offend Sophie if she said too much. It was enough to just express her decision firmly. 

"Oh, listen to yourself! Are you blaming Wilson now?" Sophie's tone was full of sarcasm.

"Aunt, that's not what I meant. Please have a rest as I excuse myself!" After saying this, Alina put down the teacup and strode away.

She couldn't stay there any longer in case an argument broke out. 

In her hurry, she did not notice the deceitful smile on Sophie's lips. 

At dinner, Monica was still present at the table, to everyone's surprise. 

Mr. Scott sat down at the table and said, "Wilson is on a business trip overseas. He will probably be back in a few days. Lina, remember to come back and accompany me every day!"

There were two underlying messages in his words. First, he hinted at Monica that Wilson was on a business trip so she should hurry home. Secondly, he wanted to tell everyone that he acknowledged Alina's position in the family.

Alina nodded. "Yes, Grandfather!"

Her gratitude towards Lincoln could no longer be described in words.

A marriage out of social class would never be smooth sailing. At the very least, she still had Grandfather's support, so she must try her best. 

Suddenly, Lincoln asked, "Silvia, why hasn't your mother come over for dinner? Ask someone to check on her, is she feeling unwell?" 

Only then did Alina raise her head and realize that Sophie didn't come down for dinner. It was truly strange. Wasn't she fine just now? Could it be that she was so furious that she refused to eat? 

Hearing her grandfather's words, Silvia immediately replied, "Oh, I don't know either. I'll go take a look."

As soon as she walked to the door, Mr. Kyree came in and whispered something into Lincoln's ear. The expression on his face changed and he declared sternly, "Lina will never do such a thing!"

This sentence caught everyone's attention. 

What exactly did Alina do?

There was a lot of gossip surrounding Alina's past. Furthermore, she was the reason that sent the share price of Scott Group tumbling, which caused dissatisfaction within the Scott Family. However, they did not dare to say anything because of Lincoln's support. 

The day before yesterday, Lincoln had reprimanded Rainee for mentioning Alina's previous relationship with Ken at the dinner table. 

Was Lincoln going to believe the rumours and withdraw his support for Alina? 

If that was the case, that would be great!

Everyone present at the table looked around at each other with bright eyes, waiting to see what would happen. At this moment, no one was interested in eating. 

They stood up expectantly. 

However, Lincoln turned around and roared at the rest of the family, "Sit down and eat. Don't be such busybodies!"

Therefore, everyone sat down reluctantly. 

Lincoln added, "Lina, come with me!"

"Yes!" Alina immediately followed behind him, with the butler and Silvia in tow.
