At this moment, when Vanessa was saying these words, she only felt her heart was trembling.
The whole city said that Mrs. Collins is so lucky to still have such a good relationship with Mr. Collins after so many years of marriage.
Everyone says that they have a good relationship.
But everyone doesn't know that she and Alby can see each other for no more than half a month a year, and in front of people, he treats her with the utmost care.
Yet behind the scenes, how many people knew of the torment he inflicted on her?
"I would have had no feelings for him, our marriage was a mistake." In speaking of this, Vanessa's voice was all pain.
The wrong marriage makes for a lifetime of misery.
And how many people know the pain she has endured all these years?
Chester just watched her, without saying a word, obviously not the least bit interested in any of this. Vanessa knew exactly what he wanted to know.
"Do you think that Leyla is a good person? She's a pest." Leyla was Alina's mother.
Chester, "Who did she harm?"
As far as Chester could remember, Leyla had always been a very nice person, gentle and soft, responsible for her family and capable at work.
Unlike other rich girls, Leyla has held on to her position as a woman in the workplace, despite the privileges she has had since childhood.
And at this moment, when talking about who Alina's mother Leyla had harmed, Vanessa sneered, "Your father."
Chester's mind went blank.
Apparently, these past events were something they never explore.
Apparently, no one ever perceived the love-hate relationship of the previous generation.
And as she spoke about it, hatred and pain flashed under Vanessa's eyes, "It's her, that bitch."
The past replayed in her mind.
And she was mute, as if she could not hear her voice, and the scene that followed was not known to Chester.
Those things had long been rotten in her bones, and they were the last things she wanted to face or dared to think about.
No one knew what was going on, exactly, except those who experienced being involved in it back then.
The more it got to the end, the whiter Vanessa's face became, while Chester's face was no better.
Vanessa said bitterly, "Everyone in that fire ran out, It was her told your father that your uncle was in there."
Uncle?
Yes, Vanessa's younger brother, eight years younger than Vanessa, was twelve years old the year of the fire.
All these years Vanessa had never even gone back to her mother's house, so obviously this incident had left a deep imprint on her heart.
"At that time, I was just pregnant with you."
Chester, "..."
At this moment, there was no longer any panic in Vanessa's body, as if she had laid these things out completely, and she was much more relaxed as a result.
What kind of pain had been endured for her all these years?
"Alby and I were involved because of that fire." So for this sinful relationship, who should be blamed?
Alby hated her, always had.
And who should she hate? No one knows what kind of pain she endured at that time.
