Alina hung up Penny's cakk and looked at Chester.
Chester knew what Alina wanted to say, but he opened his mouth first, "Even if she can't be in simple surroundings, she should still have her life."
Have her life?
What kind of life should Penny have?
Alina looked at Chester, "Isn't she not old enough to go to primary school?"
"She is smart."
One sentence sums it all up.
Ever since returning to the Ajax family, Alina had felt that it might be hard for Penny to go to school in peace.
But Chester...
"Are you sure it won't be dangerous?"
Chester was Fraser, so Alina did not believe that it would really be easy over at Sinantu Pavilion, nor did she believe that what kind of protection in this world was foolproof.
The only thing that would be safe would be for her to return to the ordinary world, hiding all traces of who she is and what she is.
Chester stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, his voice low, "No one dares to touch her in Sinantu Pavilion."
Alina did not want to admit it, but right now Chester was more than capable of protecting Penny.
He was at the helm of the Spinster family, his forces are all over the place, and today in Kubay, no one can go up against the Spinster family except for the Ajax family.
Alina came out of Chester's arms, her attitude distant and cold.
Chester, "Did Sienna give you a hard time?"
At the moment, they could never carry on with the topic of Penny.
Penny is very dependent on Chester and is doing very well by his side, so well that she is even forgetting her mother.
Alina's heart was very unpleasant.
So when Chester asked if Sienna was making things difficult for her, she coldly snorted, "She's my sister, what can she do to make things difficult for me?"
Does she really still think of Sienna as her sister?
Since Penny's plans to return to Shirling had changed, Alina did not want to continue to dwell on it with Chester.
The moment she turned to leave, her wrist was held tightly, "You can't trust anyone in the Ajax family."
Once he had completely taken care of the Spinster family, he would pick her up from the Ajax family.
Chester knew what kind of madman Sienna really was, and he absolutely could not allow Alina to stay with the Ajax family.
Alina looked at her wrist which was being grabbed.
Frowning, she raised her eyes, "I told you that back in Ingford, didn't I?"
"What?"
"Don't regret and don't look back." Once he regrets and turns back, then it will surely be his undoing.
Just as Caleb did.
Everyone said that Alina was ruthless, as Caleb regretted it and had always been genuinely protective of her, trying to ask her to turn back to him.
Chester, on the other hand, probably had his own struggles.
But who ever thought about her despair at the time when she was going through all that pain?
When she was forced by Caleb to jump into the Hasnan River, at that time she swore in her heart over and over again that she would never forgive him.
When Chester made her kneel in front of Vanessa's hearth, she swore a poisonous oath in her heart that she would not have any involvement with the men of the Collins family in the future.
Even if, between them, there was still Penny, so what?
"Abby." Hearing Alina mention the matter of Ingford positively, Chester's heart choked even more in an instant.
Alina shook off his hand and said, "Everything between you and me is of your own making, you don't look like someone who would regret it, so why bother?"
After saying that, Alina left.
And Chester wanted to chase after her, and his legs, which were standing still at the moment, were as heavy as if they had been filled with lead.
Looking at Alina's back, he shivered.
