Half an hour later.
Alina was making clothes in the drawing room in the attic when she heard the voice of Marry downstairs, "Master Caleb, you can't go up there, you..."
Alina frowned.
Without waiting for her to stand up, she heard the sound of door panels being slammed against the wall from outside, apparently Caleb was looking for her from room to room.
Alina would have had a terrible headache.
Now her brain is throbbing.
"Boom." finally, the door of the painting room was slammed open by the man viciously, when Caleb saw that Alina was inside.
Those eyes were instantly scarlet.
Marry followed with a scowl on her face.
Seeing Alina's face sink, her tone grew worse, "Master Caleb, it's over between you and Lady Alina, please maintain your poise and decency."
Manners and decency?
Did Caleb have these?
Probably.
During the time she lived in the Collins family, Alina had always thought that Caleb still had some temperament in him, but now...
After experiencing so many things with Emma, she knows that this man has no humanity, where is the manners and decency?
Those so-called decencies of his were probably in the public eye, long since drowned out.
"Marry, you go down first." Looking at Caleb, whose eyes were full of scarlet, Alina calmed down instead.
She’s seen too much and her heart is numb.
How many times has this been hurt? How can she be numb when faced with this again?
Now Caleb is really nothing compared to the previous ones, that's why Alina is numb, right?
Marry was originally uneasy about Alina, but was relieved when she saw the scissors in Alina's hand.
Eventually, she nodded and went down.
When it was just the two of them left, Alina, "Where did she break this time? Or is she about to fall to her death again?"
Looking sarcastically at the man, she said.
And Caleb was instantly dumbfounded when he heard these words.
So, she thought that he had come to her for Emma?
He threw open the door and walked towards Alina with big steps, such a sudden wind-like movement made Alina back up subconsciously.
"What are you doing?" And her hand holding the scissors tightened.
However, just as the man was closing in, the moment Alina was about to raise the scissors, suddenly her cold body fell into the man's embrace.
Her brain, for a moment, was foggy.
The man's strong arms are so tight.
This moment.
Caleb rubbed Alina fiercely in his arms, wishing that he nestle her into his body.
It was as if this was the only way she would be completely, once again, his own.
"Alina," not waiting for Alina to react, the man uttered.
How much emotion was felt in that moment?
Alina’s heart was viciously shaken at this moment.
"What are you doing?"
Reacting, she pushed Caleb away as soon as she could.
At the moment of separation, Alina looked angrily at Caleb. And it was the moment that she saw under the man's scarlet angry eyes.
With endless pain.
