Chapter 482 Conspiracy
Penny has fallen asleep.
Seeing this, Alina handed the child to the maid waiting on the side, who took the child upstairs.
Alina turned around, "Chester, what's wrong?"
Her tone was gentle.
The moment she met his eyes, his eyes were scarlet, and even more so, they were still suffused with a strong killing intent.
Alina looked shocked.
"What's wrong?"
"Abby, from now on, no matter what happens, you can only be mine and will only be by my side." Chester embraced her.
The words are clearly tender words of affection, yet at the moment they are firm.
And such Chester made it even clearer to Alina that something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Was it the Collins family?
She, now, hates the Collins family.
Yet Chester said, "I am your man, from now on, you just have to be by my side, you hear me?"
"Chester."
"Hear me?" He held her more tightly, his tone more firm.
It was as if he had to get an answer that would satisfy him in this moment.
At his insistence like this, eventually Alina nodded, "Yes."
His breath slackened slightly.
Alina, however, frowned tightly, as she did not know what was going on, and therefore her heart was endlessly worried about Chester.
Between them, there are so many variables happening.
And returning to Ingford was supposed to be one of the variables, and she was afraid that more things with shocks would happen.
For a long, long time.
Feeling her gentle breath, his original heaviness was dissipating, little by little.
He let go of Alina.
Chester tenderly stroked her face, his eyes full of pity, "Abby, it's good that you're still here."
This is a statement that is so profound.
Alina, "Tell me, what is happening?"
Chester, "..."
To think of Lucas's report in the study just now, he was still angry..
But in front of Alina, he tried his best to hold back, and eventually said nothing, but dotingly stroking her soft hair.
"Scared, aren't you?"
At this, Alina knew that he would definitely not tell her anything.
She didn't have to know, she was just worried about Chester.
"Shall we go to the hospital?" Chester asked cautiously.
Alina, "..."
Her face couldn't help but sink when she heard the words, but in the end she only nodded, "Okay."
In Shirling, she had convinced herself, so now that it has come to this point, go on.
In the end, things have to end sooner rather than later.
"Now go and get some sleep first?" After all, it was a long journey from Shirling, and Chester was really distressed.
Alina nodded.
She was really tired.
Chester accompanied her back to her room and as Alina got into bed, Chester subconsciously got into bed as well.
Alina, "What are you doing?"
"Sleep with you."
"No need." Alina was embarrassed, yet the man was as stubborn as a child and must get his candy.
In the end, Alina had no choice but to comply with him.
The warm temperature of the blanket made two otherwise emotionally tense people drift off to sleep, and Alina's tightness relaxed little by little at Chester's breath, eventually she fell asleep.
Yet Chester, who had originally told Alina to sleep together just now, opened his dark eyes when she was in a complete slumber.
Gently, he got out of bed and went to the child's room.
Penny can easily fall asleep as long as she is soothed by Alina.
Sleeping, she looks so lovely.
At this moment, Chester looked at the child with pity in his eyes.
The warmth of his fingers gently caressing Penny's face, he only felt at this moment that the child was so soft that it made his heart melt.
"Penny." Murmuring her name softly, his eyes full of tenderness and doting for her.
After the tenderness, there is endless coldness and danger.
"What a great trap." In the midst of the cold, it was his murderous aura.
...
In the hospital.
Vanessa kept looking at the time on her wristwatch, to see when exactly Alina would come to the hospital.
"Mum, stop it." Julia knew that Vanessa was waiting for Alina to come.
Vanessa, "Why isn't she coming yet? She has promised me."
Julia, "..."
Looking at Vanessa, Julia didn't even dare to say that Caleb was still murmuring Alina's name, for fear of irritating her.
Originally, it was all over.
Why does it just not end?
It was as if there was a powerful force behind it, pushing them on and on, always unable to stop them from getting what they wanted.
When Caleb was in danger again and went into the resuscitation room, Vanessa was frightened and called Chester urgently.
"Chester, bring Penny and Alina to the hospital, I'm scared, I'm scared." she was incoherent on the phone.
Every time Caleb went into the resuscitation room, she had the same reaction now, fearing that the person would not come out of the resuscitation room alive.
Chester now just came out of Penny's room.
"Urgent?" His tone of voice was devoid of its usual warmth.
Even if it was his family, there was now no semblance of warmth in his tone.
Vanessa froze for moments, "Of course, I'm afraid he won't come out alive."
"..."
"I know he deserves to die, I know it, but he can't die. No matter how much he deserves to die, he's still your brother." Vanessa said in pain.
She continued, "Whether he deserves to die or not, when he comes to life, you can punish him as you like, okay?"
