After Sienna left, Alina sat on the sofa, and on the screen was Andre's number.
After a long, long time, she still put down the phone.
She did not dial out in the end.
Shirling was now quiet, and those so-called dark tides were really nothing compared to that in Kubay.
But in the end, she made a call to Chester.
Chester picked up, "Abby."
Hearing this doting voice, Alina instantly stiffened.
"I don't want Penny to be involved in everything the Spinster family does." Alina went straight to the point.
Chester, "You know everything?"
Alina, "It's not hard for Sienna to investigate anything."
After all, this is Kubay, where the entire Ajax family is entrenched, so it's not hard for the Ajax family to know something.
Just Chester probably didn't expect that Sienna checked it out so soon as he had only returned to the Spinster family for a short time.
He had underestimated that woman.
"Can you promise me?" Seeing that Chester didn't say anything, Alina's tone got heavier.
Chester, "Do you think that's possible?"
Although Chester did not reject her, Alina clearly heard the rejection.
And it was only in a flash that Alina understood what Chester meant.
"Before Penny learned a lot of things in the Ajax family." Without waiting for Alina to speak, Chester continued.
Alina's breathing became fast.
During that time, she had been with Timothy, and during her illness, Penny had been at the Ajax's, been with Sienna.
What she saw was Sienna teaching Penny.
But what else Penny, who was raised as the heir of the Ajax family, had learned?
"Then what kind of existence does Penny have in the Spinster family now?" Alina's heart was already in her throat when she asked this question.
In her opinion, since she cannot change, it is natural to take the pros and cons.
Yet when Chester opened his mouth, Alina only felt at that moment that his world was blank.
"Heir."
Alina, "..."
During the time she once returned to VIG, she was treated like an 'heir' by her grandfather.
The difference is that the Lawson family was so simple at that time, and after returning to Kubay, the word 'heir' gave her a renewed sense of awareness.
Especially as the heir of the Ajax family and the Spinster family, she naturally knows what kind of existence that is.
Chester is one of the heirs, lived in the Collins family since childhood, and now the Spinster family is a kind of authority.
And those pain suffered by the so-called 'heir' is naturally self-explanatory.
Alina took a deep breath, "Why her?"
Why Penny?
Chester, "There is no reason, that belongs to her."
"Can I make a decision for her?" Alina said with a frightened heart.
Chester, "What kind of decision do you want to make?"
"Let her go back to Shirling, back to Andre."
At this moment, Alina thoroughly realized that Kubay is her new life, but facing a greater whirlwind.
She had no future, but she hoped Penny to be peaceful and joyful.
Once, before the incident in Ingford, Chester would agree to her request, however, until the end, he did not give Alina the answer she wanted.
