Standing in the doorway through the door panel, Andre could hear Penny chatting with a man, and at that moment his heart skipped a beat.
He kicked the door open.
Penny and Lincol were still chatting, when they heard this sound, they both looked towards the door in unison, and with a glance, the air froze.
The moment the four eyes met, Andre only felt his heart tightening.
Lincol didn't seem surprised at all, after all, Alina's arrangement was already full of loopholes.
Now, that couldn't be blamed on him.
They had done as they were told.
"Penny, come here." Andre struggled to suppress the anger in his heart, this scene was now a bit sudden.
He was, for a moment, a bit overwhelmed by the reaction.
Penny obediently slid down from Lincol's arms and ran towards Andre, the moment he held the child in her arms, Andre's brain was still blank.
He turned sharply and carried Penny down the stairs, and not long after, came up again.
The two were facing each other again, their breath more tense. Lincol was lying wantonly on Alina's lounge sofa.
At this moment, he had completely lost his usual composure.
Andre, "Get up."
At this moment, Andre couldn't tell how angry he was in his heart.
Lincol, "She told me not to go out."
Andre was already angry, and now when he heard Lincol's words, he was even more furious, "Get out."
Lincol's gaze that looked towards Andre was deep and cold.
All this time, Andre had always guarded against Lincol, even going out of his way to get him to stay away from Alina.
But they actually met in such way.
He had gone to great lengths to keep her from stepping into another abyss, and here she was drawing wolves into her house?
In front of Lincol, Andre dialed Alina's phone again and again, but the phone was always off.
Alina was now on the plane.
For a long, long time, Andre couldn't even calm down.
"Why are you here?" Finally, Andre asked the question.
Lincol, "As you can see."
"She knows?"
"This is her room, can she not know?" Andre felt like he had asked a foolish question.
Lincol looked at the exasperated Andre.
The corner of his mouth lifted up into a meaningful smile, "What are you worried about?"
"Lincol, what exactly is rotten inside your Shaw family that you need me to remind you of? Don't involve her in this."
Although Andre had been stirred up these days, he still saw the essence of things clearly.
The Shaw family was an abyss.
How miserable Alina had been set up by the Collins family, Andre naturally saw it clearly, how could he possibly let her fall into this mire of the Shaw family?
"You think I want to use her?"
"You and Chester's feud needs even less for me to say, the whole world knows." So if there was no element of use, Andre didn't believe it.
"Even if I use her, it's still good for her."
"She doesn't need it."
Lincol could see that Andre was guarding Alina, that was absolutely attentive.
He didn't want to see any slight deviation.
Even if he wanted to take revenge on Chester, he would definitely not let her fall into another abyss, everything had to be clean.
"Go away." Andre did not want to see Lincol at all right now.
