Alina told Vanessa the general story.
The more Vanessa heard, the more shocked she became. She didn't expect that this child could do that.
She was not yet three years old.
But how could she come to Ingford from Shirling so far away and still have such a smooth journey?
"My baby granddaughter is so smart." Vanessa rarely praised a person, but at this moment, she was clearly shocked.
How could a child do that?
It was even a bit difficult for an adult.
However, the child came to Alina so smoothly twice.
Hearing it, Alina was even more helpless. She said, "If I could, I wouldn't want her to be so smart."
Couldn’t she just be a child?
Penny was so clever. She could go wherever she wanted and was so unbridled. Alina was worried about she would really disappear from her side.
Vanessa, "It's a good thing that she is smart."
She preferred children to be smart, especially girls.
Because once girls were smart, they would not be so easily deceived and bullied by scumbags.
They talked until dark.
Vanessa even had dinner in Mulherd Manor.
She had been listening to Alina tell some interesting stories about Penny. Then she realized that the child had always been normal since she was a child.
But Penny spoke later than those kids of her age. Even now she couldn’t express what she wanted clearly.
But even so, she could come to Ingford from Shirling. Vanessa liked Penny more and more. Not only that, but for the next few days, she almost came to Mulherd Manor to play with Penny every day. Everyone in the Collins family knew about Penny.
But… no one told Caleb.
It could be seen how bad Caleb had been in the eyes of everyone in the Collins family after he was with Emma over years.
If one person told you that the woman was not good, you might not care about it. But a group of people said that the woman was not good, it might be that she was really bad. If you insisted on being with her, then after a long time, others would gradually alienate you.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day before Penny's birthday.
Vanessa asked, "How about taking Penny back to celebrate her birthday? Her grandfather also wants to be with her. If we all come to Mulherd Manor, it will arouse Caleb's suspicion."
However, taking Penny back to Collins Castle for a birthday wouldn’t arouse his suspicion?
"They all knew it?"
"Yeah."
Alina instantly felt speechless.
Now, she didn’t want to celebrate any birthdays. She just wanted to take the child away quickly.
Then the next moment, she heard Vanessa say, "Don't worry. No one will tell him. Only the child's grandfather and Julia knew it."
Alina was relieved when she heard this.
If everyone in the Collins family knew it... No, it wouldn't. If they all knew it, Caleb would probably have already come to her.
Alina didn’t believe there was none of Caleb’s men over there.
......
Alina didn't go to work these days. After the next day of that day, Alina told Caleb that Vanessa went to Mulherd Manor.
And these days...
"Go to Mulherd Manor every day?" Caleb completely lost his patience, so he asked Tomas to check what was going on.
Alina was trying to hide from him?
Could she?
Until now, she still didn’t know him well?
Tomas answered, "Yes."
