Chapter 467 Scheming sisters
Macy and Annie found their way over here somehow, when Alina opened the door and saw the two appear, she, for a moment, froze.
She did not know Annie.
But she knew Macy.
Her face dulled, "What are you doing here?"
When she met Macy, she was so resistant. But even with that resistance, she, in the end, had her memory sealed.
Macy could see the hostility that saw Alina towards her and said with a smile, "It's freezing cold outside, let's talk inside."
Their snow boots were covered in snow, as well as their hats and shoulders.
It seems they have come a long way.
Eventually she let the two in.
The house was warm, and as she entered, Macy rubbed Annie's cold hands heartily.
She was walking covered in sweat, but Annie's hands were cold.
Alina handed them the hot cocoa and Annie said, "Thank you." However because her hands were too stiff, the moment she took the hot cocoa, the mug fell unguarded to the floor, soiling a large part of the carpet.
Alina held her forehead, this was a carpet painted by Joanna, if she knew, she would be angry.
"I'm sorry." Annie looked pitifully at Alina.
Alina was silent.
She was already hostile towards Macy, so naturally she couldn't look kindly on those who were with her.
Under Macy's eyes was a flash of poisonous intent.
"Miss Hughes, this is my sister, Annie."
"Oh." Since she was Macy's sister, and that's no reason to be kind to her.
When Macy saw Alina's flat response, her face sank, "It's not easy to come in here in the middle of nowhere, it's this girl who keeps making a fuss to see you."
"She wants to see me?"
Alina put down the coffee and looked at Annie across the table.
She did not know this person.
Macy, "You tell her, I'll wait for you over there."
Instead of answering Alina's question, Macy said gently to Annie, pointing to a location not far away.
Annie nodded.
Probably because she had been ill for years, she looked soft and frail at the moment, as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
When Macy went to one side, only Alina and Annie were left.
Annie looked shrewd at this moment.
"Miss Hughes, won't you ask why I must see you?" Annie clutched the cup of hot cocoa that Macy had drunk and looked at Alina.
Her eyes were so gentle, yet this gentleness could not conceal the shrewdness and calculation under her eyes.
Like a fox
The corners of Alina's mouth lifted into a smile as she said, "All these years, you've been in front of your sister in the same manner as you were just now, right?"
Annie said, her face unchanged, "That's my sister, I can look like anything in front of her."
"Yeah, so what do you want to get her to accomplish for you?"
Alina smiled, her tone was light, yet it carried a sharpness that tortured the soul.
Annie's face changed because of this.
Without waiting for her to speak, Alina continued, "How many people do you want to protect you with this appearance?"
She sort of saw it coming.
Most of that animosity that Macy has towards her is because of Annie, right?
"Or, do you fancy Caleb?" Alina laughed even more sarcastically.
Annie looked fiercely at Alina.
Alina, "If it's because of that, don't come to me, I'll let you have him, after all, he saved your life too."
"You know it?"
"Huh." Alina laughed coldly, as if she had everything under control even in this place where information was closed.
Annie looked at Alina and felt scared in her heart.
Thin lips pursed as she looked at Alina, "I'm not here for him."
"Then for who?"
"You and Caleb can get back together."
When Alina looked at Annie, there was already a strong killing intent under her eyes.
Annie, "Only if you can make up with him, Chester will not continue to be sad because of you."
"..."
"He's been fine all these years, he wants to come back to you because you're messing with Caleb, so if you don't want to hurt him, you'll make up with Caleb."
Before he finished, the coffee in Alina's hand splashed towards Annie.
Making up with Caleb?
This is a big no-no in Alina's world.
Even Joanna and Andre did not dare to say their names, and now Annie, with every word, was stepping on Alina's bottom line.
The scene froze.
Macy heard the commotion and ran towards them like crazy, "Miss Hughes, what are you doing?"
When Chester came in, he saw this messy scene.
Macy cried, "You are killing her."
Alina looked on icily.
And Annie, seeing the figure of Chester through the corners of her eyes, cried and fell into Macy's arms, "Sister, I'm fine, don't blame Miss Hughes."
Alina, "..."
"Don't be afraid, I am here." With that, Macy looked at Alina viciously.
Annie was in a mess, while Alina was neat, and she was the one who splashed Annie.
Through the ages, her temper is still as violent as ever.
"Please get the hell out of here right now." Watching the scene between the two sisters, she could not suppress her anger.
When Annie saw Alina's anger, a glint of light flashed under her eyes, and she rubbed herself against Macy's arms in aggravation and fear, sobbing uncontrollably.
She looked aggrieved.
Macy looked angrily at Alina, at this moment saw Chester, she had a touch of smugness.
Let Chester take a good look at what the woman in his heart is really like.
As Alina watched the two sisters perform, she was even more furious. She didn't expect she would be found even if she hid in this place.
Annie likes Chester, even going so far as to seek out to Fragrant Mountain.
"You are not welcome here, please leave now."
This time, her tone was really nonchalant. Seeing that Alina was anger, Macy continued to stimulate her, "Miss Hughes, Annie just had a major operation, you can't do this."
"It's none of my business if she dies."
Before Macy could finish her words, she was angrily interrupted by Alina. Why should she have to put up with their provocations against her?
Macy, "Annie's life has nothing to do with you, what about Master Caleb?"
Alina, "..."
Chester looked at Alina's back when he heard Macy's words.
He just watched, and the steps stopped just like that.
He was waiting for that answer in Alina's mind.
Time has changed and after all that has happened, Caleb lost a kidney for her at the risk of his life.
So now, does Caleb occupy a place in her heart than he does?
