Ronan and Lucas came down from upstairs.
Alina went upstairs, with Chester's medicine in her hand and a glass of water, and when she entered the study, Alina was almost smoked out.
"Don't you want to die?"
Looking at the ashtray in front of Chester, there were already quite a few cigarette butts, Alina stepped forward and took off the half cigarette between his fingers.
Her face was always cold and clear.
But the action made Chester's heart soften in a moment.
Alina, "I'm sorry."
She was talking about the matter of Sienna.
She didn't expect that in this life, she could still drag Chester into it. Chester's gaze deep, and realized that she found out the truth.
"This is what you came to Shirling for? You guessed it early on?" She guessed that Sienna would help Paisley?
"Paisley means a lot to her, and not just because of Marcus."
"..."
"And you're a sister to her that she hasn't seen since she was a child. Even she's still growing up in nightmares because of you."
So that's why Chester was aware that when Sienna found her sister Alina, he was not half happy for Alina in his heart.
He even felt that the fact that she had been found by Sienna was in itself a dangerous thing.
That was why when he found out that Alina was being entertained by Sienna, he first returned to the Spinster family, a place he had never thought of going back to after all those years away.
Alina's heart ached delicately.
"She won't like you." Seeing that Alina did not say anything, Chester added this sentence.
Sienna was a vengeful person.
She had suffered so much because of Alina, even if Alina had done nothing wrong, Sienna would definitely not really like her.
The corners of Alina's mouth lifted up in a smile, "I thought going back was a new life, but it really is a new life."
But this new life may be a desperate path.
"It seems that God really doesn't like me at all."
How many bad things had happened to her since she was a child?
Emma, her parents, her grandparents. Now even the only sister in the world was treating her in this way.
"Just think of it as God letting you go through the calamity."
Alina snorted out. She hadn't expected Chester to be so funny, but this comfort did make sense.
If it wasn't a calamity, why would there be so many trials and tribulations in this world?
Alina handed the crushed medicine powder to Chester.
Chester looked at the powder in the white paper.
"This is?"
"Isn't it hard to swallow? It's all ground up fine for you, no more words, right?" This man had just said in the car that he had trouble taking pills.
Chester looked at the powdered medicine and his face sank even deeper.
"Here, I'll feed you."
"Abby."
"Open your mouth."
Hearing her light coaxing, Chester felt his heart was hit at this moment.
In the midst of her coaxing, he subconsciously opened his mouth, yet the next moment, the bitter taste instantly spread throughout his mouth.
Alina handed him the warm water, "Drink."
It was so bitter that he almost vomited.
Drinking the cup of water down, the bitter taste still hadn't dissipated, and there was even some sticking to his throat, which was even more bitter to the point of making people tremble.
