I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 475

Chapter 475 Vanessa’s change

Vanessa didn't get much out of Alina and started calling Chester again.
On the phone, Vanessa said, "He might really be dying, what am I going to do? Chester, what am I going to do?"
At this moment, Vanessa only felt that she had been owned to Caleb all these years.
now that she looks back, why should she as a mother blame him? He was innocent, wasn't he?
Chester had already seen that Caleb was not in a good situation last time, but he had not expected things to be so serious.
Taking a deep breath, he opened his mouth, "I'll be right back."
"Will you take Alina with you?" As soon as she heard that Chester wanted to go back, Vanessa asked.
Chester, "..."
He frowned.
Under his eyes, there was displeasure.
Without waiting for him to speak, Vanessa said, "Probably, it's the last time."
"You have always been high and mighty, but back you begged me to leave Ingford for him."
Everyone says that Vanessa is most partial to her eldest son, but back then, when she let him and Alina separate, she was just like those people.
Vanessa was stiff.
"Chester." At this moment, it was as if Vanessa could not hear her voice.
Her world went blank.
"I'll be back tonight." After saying that, without waiting for Vanessa to say anything else, Chester hung up the phone.
The moment the world fell silent, Chester was as shadowy as a beast.
Ronan came in, "Sir."
Chester, "Book a fight for tonight."
"Okay." Ronan nodded.
Knowing the seriousness of the situation over in Ingford now, Alby and Tristan have gone back, if Chester did not go back, there would be rumors.
Originally, the Collins family has now many remarks, on the surface, he had to do his work.
Chester grabbed his jacket and was about to head out.
"Where are you going, sir?"
"The Lawson's."
...
Brooklyn returned, he was the best orthopaedic surgeon. When Emma wanted nothing more than to get his operation after her injury.
However, because of Alina, Brooklyn did not agree.
In the garden, Brooklyn handed a cup of tea to Alina, "This is the snowdrop flower tea I brought back for you from the snow, try it and see if it tastes good."
"Thank you." Alina picked up the cup of tea and tasted it, the bitter taste spread in her mouth and she frowned, "It's bitter."
"It's very nourishing and a good choice for girls." Brooklyn said gently.
Alina smiled, "I didn't expect you to have such research, I thought you were only interested in bones."
Brooklyn looked at her smile and froze for a moment.
In Brooklyn's acquaintance, Alina had been a brisk nature, when did she have such a bitter smile?
Lifting the coffee in front of him and taking a sip, he said, "It's a difficult situation for you right now, if it's hard, go with me to Ipswich?"
Alina froze.
Obviously she did not expect Brooklyn to invite her.
As far as she knew, Brooklyn had always been a man of leisure, aloof and eccentric in nature, never close to anyone.
He had few friends in his world.
Brooklyn said, "I'm just suggesting."
"Well, thanks, I want to face it." Alina said firmly.
Once, she was mad because there was no more energy to face what was happening, and now it all hurts so much for her.
Although even now those unpleasant memories tormented her all the time, she thought that she had to get over them.
Having already learned a hard lesson from this memory, this time, no matter how hard or painful it was inside, she had to be strong and face it.
Just as the two were about to say something else, the butler came to report that Chester had arrived.
Hearing Chester's name, Alina's face froze. Even now, it was still difficult for her to face Chester because of this matter.
As she did then, her greatest fear at the time of such an unpleasant event was to see Chester.
Now, even if Chester said such warm words to him to soothe her, but she was still afraid.
She wanted to keep the best memories of him, and was therefore afraid to face Chester, afraid that they would end up in another kind of extinction.
Only those who have experienced it will understand what it is really like, that fear that radiates from the bones.
...
He is all clean and elegant.
Alina stood a short distance away and unconsciously looked dumbfounded.
Stepping forward, she hugged him tightly while Chester felt Alina's small trembling.
He froze for a moment and subconsciously was about to turn around, yet when he felt the force of Alina's hand around his waist heavier, a warm palm covered the back of her hand.
In a soft voice, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"I wish that we could freeze this moment forever." Don't move on, don't look back.
For Alina, looking backwards is an abyss, looking forwards is a cliff.
At those words, Chester's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
"Abby."
Gently turning around, he took Alina into his arms, almost wanting to embed her in his bones and blood, as if this was the only way she could fully belong to him.
"What's wrong?" Alina felt the heaviness in his breath, and her heart was pounding at the moment.
So much had happened between them that she dared not face any more.
Chester smelled the fresh scent of her hair and said, "I want to be frozen in this moment forever."
Alina laughed.
It turned out that when she was sober, she was so desperate for him, how sad she must have been back at the mere thought of not being able to continue to be with him.
To this day, she still did not dare to think about the cruelty she inflicted on herself back then.
"Abby."
"Yes?"
"I'm going to make a trip back to Ingford."
Alina's heart skipped a beat when she heard the word Ingford.
Even the mention of that place in Ingford now is a heavy and hurtful experience for her.
All those unpleasant things happened at Ingford.
Chester clearly felt that Alina's body stiffened when she heard the word Ingford.
Kissing her in the hair, he said, "I'll be back soon."
The implication is that she will not be brought along.
"I will bring Penny back with me."
At this, she felt relaxed at this moment.
