I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 479

Chapter 479 Even if it's a handout

And Vanessa almost despaired when she heard such a reply from Alina.
But she knew that she can't push Alina now, and although they haven't gotten along too well over the years, she can understand Alina more or less.
After Vanessa left.
Alina drank several cups of the tea brought back by Brooklyn, the heavy bitter taste made her heart slightly more comfortable.
Megan came over, "Although this tea is good, it's not good to drink too much of it."
With that, she snatched the teacup away from Alina's hand.
Alina looked to Megan, "Grandma."
"Yes?"
"If Caleb dies this time, will Penny blame me?" Who said she didn't care about her daughter?
She cared a lot.
Thinking about what Vanessa said, Alina was really panicking in her heart, she was afraid that Penny would blame her in the future.
Megan had just gone out.
When she came back, she heard that Vanessa had come and knew about the scene that had just happened.
If it was possible, Megan really wanted to tell her that even if Caleb died, it was not her Alina's fault.
But she said at this moment, "You have really moved on, Penny is still young and doesn't understand anything, it doesn't matter what she is told."
"..."
"But that child is smart, more independent in her right as she grows up, and her sense of right and wrong will be greater However, so what if she's about to think it's your fault?"
It made Alina's heart, in this instant, stutter.
Yes, and what if that was when Penny would think that it was her fault? Could she bear that accusation from Penny?
Megan's warm palm covering the back of Alina's cold hand, she said, "The child is still young, you can say with confidence that she won't."
"..."
"But how many rebellious children come from a time when they were well-behaved? Parents back didn't think about such a headache moment, did they?"
That, indeed, is true.
Every child comes into this world as an innocent and Penny is at her most adorable right now.
She, of course, has the confidence to say that the child will not blame herself later, but once the child has taken a stand of her, it can be a different story.
"Alina, between you and Chester, it is important to trust each other, just regard it charity to that man."
"..."
"It's always been him who owes you, and it can't be that you owe him, and more indirectly Penny for this pointless effort on his part."
Other things would be fine, but Penny is Caleb's daughter, and that cannot be changed.
"Thank you, Grandma."
"Know how to do that?"
"Yes." Alina nodded, at this moment, she naturally knew exactly what she should do, so what if she didn't want it in her heart?
Megan smiled gratefully.
And at this moment, Alina seems to understand why, back then, Grandpa chose the grandmother in front of her after his relationship broke up.
...
Chester's body exuded an icy and dangerous aura when he knew that Vanessa had personally gone to Shirling to look for Alina.
Ronan, "What do we do now?"
Ronan had followed Chester all these years, he had seen his ruthless ways, and his only tenderness was given to Alina.
But it's not like they're dealing with an outsider, it's his mother after all.
Vanessa. In the end, broke Chester's heart this time.
"Ronan."
"Yes, sir."
"Send Penny back to Shirling to the Lawson family and tell them to keep an eye on the child." The child, for now, was still in Ingford.
And Vanessa personally went to pick up Alina.
They could guess what Vanessa had in mind at this juncture.
"Yes."
Ronan understood what Chester meant.
As Ronan had just gone out, Alina's phone call came in. Looking at the flashing number on the phone, his eyes softened.
He was so gentle to the other side of the line.
"Abby."
"Chester, I've seen your mother."
Chester's thin lips were pursed, and his body exuded coldness, yet even so, to Alina on the other side, he was still gentle.
"Come over, I miss you." At this moment, Chester didn't ask Alina exactly what she was thinking.
Chester knew very well what his mother was capable of in this area of lobbying, and if he were to 'ask Alina what she thought' at this moment, it would only put Alina in a difficult position.
Chester never wanted Alina to think about anything.
Since nothing can be avoided, he will help her decide.
"Chester." When she heard Chester say this, Alina's heart was very uncomfortable, and the moment she opened her mouth, her tone was tinged with pain.
Chester, "I'll have someone arrange a flight for you and will pick you up at the airport."
At this moment, he was extremely gentle and soothing to the woman on the other side of the phone.
And Alina was originally wondering how to say it to Chester, after all, she didn't dare to face it back then.
It was the fear of explaining. She was not good at explaining and was even more afraid that Chester would not believe her.
And now, everything is solved.
She didn't even need to say anything to make any decision, Chester had already made the choice for her.
"Okay."
He hung up the phone.
At this moment, Alina's heart, moreover, turned upside down, and she made a very firm decision.
When Vanessa received the call that Alina was willing to come to Ingford together, she felt relieved at that moment.
"I'll arrange it right away." She said sharply to the other side of the phone, afraid that Alina might backtrack.
The next moment, Alina said, "No need, Chester has already made the arrangements."
Her tone was soft and gentle, and the word Chester exuded love as the name came out of her mouth.
Alina was reminding Vanessa in this way of the relationship between her and Chester nowadays.
Although Vanessa was unhappy with this current entanglement between Alina and Chester, she didn't say much in the end.
Right now, she couldn't care less about anything.
She needed to have Caleb get better first.
"Okay." She hung up.
Vanessa only felt herself covered in cold sweat, and she actually knew that the situation was very wrong now.
But she had no other recourse.
When Megan knew that Alina had decided to go to Ingford, he prepared a lot of food for Alina.
She never forget to have Alina eat properly, even when Alina is not there.
Alina said goodbye to her grandfather.
The old man looked at her and said, "Alina, in matters of love, you have to be more careful yourself, got it?"
"I know, Grandpa."
"You are my granddaughter, no one can make things difficult for you."
"Okay, Grandpa." Hearing Grandpa's strong words to protect her like that, Alina felt warm in his heart.
If Grandma had only protected her like Grandpa did, nothing would happen to her.
