Thinking of Penny, Annie gritted her teeth.
Macy, "I know you don't like that girl, but right now, you have to pretend to like her."
"If that girl is coaxed into doing well, the relationship between you and Chester will be better for it." Macy added.
Hearing that she could be better with Chester, Annie's tough attitude has finally softened.
But thinking of that girl, she said, "But that girl is so clever, I'm afraid she won't accept me."
"If she can't accept you, then she will be the biggest obstacle between you and Chester."
Annie, "..."
As soon as she heard the word 'obstacle', her face went cold.
She and Chester had worked hard to get to this point between them, and absolutely no one should be allowed to get in their way.
At this moment, determination had been made in Annie's heart, and her eyes carried a shadowy viciousness.
Macy seemed to sense Annie's strange attitude and said with alarm, "Chester is an even crazier person than Caleb."
"It won't do you any good to piss him off, let alone touch his bottom line." Macy gave Annie a reminder.
Annie closed her eyes.
"No one can be a barrier between me and him."
"Annie."
"Well, if that girl behaves well, I will try to accept her." Without waiting for Macy to say anything else, Annie interrupted.
Macy was about to say something else, but Annie hung up the phone impatiently, it was obvious that Penny was the one who was giving her the biggest headache right now.
Because of Penny, Alina and Chester still see each other regularly.
The thought of last night between them made Annie blush with anger, and therefore in her heart she hated Penny's presence even more.
...
Caleb has failed to get any results from Chester several times and he has seen thoroughly that Chester will not give the child to Alina at all.
And Chester warned him time and again to stay away from Alina.
In fact he knew that even if he stayed away from Alina, Chester's revenge on her would still not stop, but would become more and more vicious.
Those tactics in Eglinton and Ipswich may all be used on Alina.
Tomas respectfully stepped forward, "Sir."
Caleb, "How are the arrangements going?"
Hearing this, Tomas froze, "Do you really want to be against Master Chester?"
He was apprehensive.
There was even some vague concern in his tone, after all they were brothers, what would this really look like if word got out?
It goes without saying that it would be very bad for Alina's reputation.
She had deflected it all before though.
But the current Alina really had no energy to face it, and Tomas felt it.
Caleb gave him a sharp look, Tomas continued, "You know the methods of Master Chester."
The latter words were not continued by Tomas, but the meaning was already very clear.
This is not going to do any good for either of them.
"How is VIG now?" Caleb didn't answer Tomas' question, but asked about VIG in Shirling.
