I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 459

Chapter 459 You're in pain, I'll stay with you.

During these three months.
Joanna has always been by Alina's side, the cottage in a sea of snow and a warm light bubbling from the fireplace in the wood-coloured cottage.
Alina sat by the fireplace, her eyes focused on the painting, carefully and seriously, looking serene and beautiful.
Joanna came over with a cup of coffee in her hand and looked at the clothes on Alina's drawing board.
Three months ago, she stopped painting wedding dresses and it thus stopped at her first draft and has not been followed up.
She's struggling to do anything else to distract her while she starts drawing every day with her eyes open and stays exhausted until the evening.
It was as if it was the only way she could stop thinking about the things that were killing her.
Joanna handed her the coffee, "Coffee?"
"Joanna."
"Yes?"
"How long has it been?"
Joanna, "Three months."
It's been three months and she asks every day how much time has passed.
At this moment, when she heard the words 'three months', the movement of the brush in her hand paused, and the thinness of her body was even more heartbreaking at the moment.
Joanna took the brush in her hand and added a few strokes down to what she had drawn.
"Are you any better?"
When asked by Joanna like this, Alina's heart even more lightly trembled.
Can she have a better life?
Three months.
They say that time is a cure for pain, but why is it that now, three months later, she still suffocates with pain when she remembers even the slightest hint of the past?
Joanna saw her saying nothing and looked back at her, "Alina."
"I'm in pain."
Alina looked at Joanna, the grief under her eyes was so obvious.
Joanna put down the brush and put the coffee on the low table to the side, reaching out to take Alina into her arms.
She said, "It's okay, I'll stay with you."
Does it hurt?
Joanna had been by her side when it hurt the most, and never took a step away.
And in the future, no matter how much longer this pain will follow Alina, she will be by Alina.
Alina's body trembled lightly.
It was those memories that led to it.
Those, even after so much time has passed, still hurt when Alina thinks about them again.
"Thank you, Joanna." At this moment, Alina said from his heart.
If Joanna hadn't been by her side, Alina really wouldn't have known what to do.
Emma, to her dismay, even to her despair.
But Joanna had convinced her that there were real friends in the world.
"What a silly thing to say that, but I have to warn you, there's not much time left for you." She had received a call from Andre.
Penny misses Alina like crazy.
And Joanna, in front of Alina all this time, didn't dare to mention Penny and Chester once, fearing that it might irritate her nerves.
And as her closest friend, naturally she knows exactly what kind of presence these two people have in her world today.
She can't bear the pain, it hurts too much.
...
Caleb got Alina's whereabouts.
However, when he informed Macy that he intended to go together to find Alina in Fragrant Mountain, he was rushed to the hospital.
Three months.
Annie has been discharged from hospital in good health, while he is now experiencing a major post-mortem reaction to his lack of care.
Especially during these months, he did not take his medication as prescribed by the doctor.
Tomas's heart was burning in the corridor, the doctor even gave a notice of critical illness, this time, it was really impossible to hide from the people over at the Collins family.
And when Vanessa found out, no matter how much she favoured Chester before, she rushed to the hospital at the first opportunity.
"What's going on? Why is he critically ill?" Vanessa's eyes were full of fatigue and anxiety.
In her heart, Caleb is the son who is the least likely to get sick.
And now she was even more frightened when she heard that the sickness notice.
Tomas looked at Vanessa apprehensively, and after seeing the anxiety under her eyes, he wondered if this what Caleb wanted to see.
Because of Alina's sake, the Collins family was indifferent to Caleb.
Tomas told everything from beginning to end.
And it was only then that Vanessa realised just how much had happened in the meantime.
"Kidney donation?" When she heard these two words, Vanessa only felt her eyes were blackening in bursts.
Tomas nodded.
And when she saw Tomas nod, Vanessa only felt that her world was spinning.
How could he take matters into his own hands when everything in him was given by her?
...
Annie ran back to Macy's flat and cried her eyes out.
Although it is said that the two sisters are dependent on each other, in the end, she is princess who has been raised by Macy all these years.
"There, my princess, don't cry."
"Sis, he doesn't like me, he's looking for a woman called Alina." Annie said as she looked to Macy.
Tears fell down.
Macy knows the position of Alina in Chester's heart.
So at this moment, she is heartily disgusted with Alina, in love with Chester and married to Caleb.
Although she was a new age woman, she was very traditional at heart, and for Alina to act like this, she thought that was incest.
Especially now that she exists and has made her sister so sad.
People are protective of their families, and so is Annie.
"Annie, it's impossible between Master Chester and Alina, you just need to be by his side now."
Annie knows everything about what happened back then, and therefore knows that the current Alina will not turn back to be with Chester since she has thought about everything.
As for the agreement between her and Caleb.
She did promise, but who could blame this since Alina has given up the opportunity herself?
"Can I really be with him?"
"Of course you can, silly girl, you're so cute looking, he'll love you." Macy Moon said confidently.
After all, Alina is the cute type.
Chester just loves this type.
"But you have to be patient, after all, they've just reached this point in their affairs now, and liking you right now is impossible."
"..."
"But in the future, over time, you're the woman who's always there for him when his feelings are hurt, you understand?"
Macy patiently taught Annie.
And Annie nodded obediently, she listened very much to Macy.
So when Macy said she could, she decided that must be able to.
