I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491 Neither is a child anymore

It's just that those people, given the majesty of the Collins family, didn't dare to say anything.
Pulling out a chair and sitting down, she said to Alina, "Take Penny back to the Collins', or go back to Mulherd Manor, don't live here."
"Did you say that to Chester as well?" Alina looked at Vanessa in a light-hearted manner.
Vanessa's thin lips were pursed, and she looked at Alina icily, without the kind of gentleness she had in the past.
Alina's attitude was no better, and without waiting for Vanessa to speak, she asked, "How old is Chester now?"
"Alina, if you really want to do him good, go back to Mulherd Manor." At this moment, Vanessa knew that it was impossible to let Alina go back to Collins Castle.
Werland Villa, even less so.
In that case, go back to Mulherd Manor.
With today's reminder from Macy, there is no way she can support her being with Chester.
The corner of Alina's mouth lifted up with a touch of sarcasm as she looked at Vanessa, "How old is Chester this year?"
"What do you mean?"
Vanessa's face sank even further at this moment.
Alina, "I'm already twenty-seven, and Chester is six years older than me."
"What do you want to say?"
"When I had my accident, I was young, and Chester was just out of college."
"..."
"You told him that it was for my own good, and he went abroad, thinking he would return me peace."
"..."
"And you made me marry Caleb when I lost my memory, and now, when I remember the past and he has weathered the storm, what do you think I want to say?"
They are no longer children.
When there is no way to think maturely, they can hold their minds, step by step, in the direction they think is good.
But it's just that they think they are good.
Have they ever thought about the consequences they would face if they were interfered with?
"We are all adults, so we naturally know what choice to make, don't you think?" Alina's eyes, at this moment, were sharper.
And Vanessa.
Since her return, she has seen a radical change in Alina, but she still cannot accept this sharpness in her at the moment.
Alina just looked at Vanessa calmly, while Vanessa's heart, however, could not calm down for a long time.
It took several deep breaths to squash the stuffy weight in her heart, "So do you think that this choice you are making is really the right one?"
"Right or wrong, it's all on us."
Back then, they were spared the part they had to bear, but did things really end up going in the direction they thought was good?
In the end, it's still too easy to think things through.
Vanessa's heart kept rising and falling.
"So, you're rejecting me?"
"No, but a reminder that it's time to let go." Looking at Vanessa, Alina said in a loud voice.
Letting go?
No matter what age the children has reached, he or she will always be a child's presence in the mother's heart.
Vanessa's heart was heaving, and many words were blocked back at this moment by this assertiveness of Alina.
Alina is in a mess right now.
She doesn't want more people to interfere with her, so whoever it is now, she's going to have to be tough.
She, at this moment, will not listen to anyone.
Vanessa got up angrily.
The powerful inertia knocked over the stool behind her.
Alina, "You are the honourable wife of the Collins family, what you have done during this time is really beneath your status."
"You..."
Alina turned around and went straight upstairs, obviously not wanting to say so much to Vanessa.
With her various biases like this, Chester and Caleb, as sons, would probably be able to understand it, but in Alina's case, she doesn't have that much spirit to withstand her.
Seeing that Alina was not willing to pay more attention to her, she became angrier..
Before, whatever emotions were inside her, she was able to suppress them well, whereas so much had happened in the meantime.
In particular, Caleb's condition was too much of a shock for her, so she is now more or less overwhelmed in her heart.
...
Chester knew that Vanessa had come to Waterside Villa and immediately returned from outside with Penny.
The child wanted fried chicken so badly that Chester packed it back because he was worried about Alina.
"Where is she?" Chester asked, frowning when he came in and saw that the lunch on the table hadn't been touched.
The butler came forward, "Madam has left, Miss Hughes is upstairs."
Chester's face sank, he handed Penny to the maid on the side, rubbing her head and saying, "You eat, I will go to check on Mummy, okay?"
"Okay."
Penny nodded good-naturedly.
No one knew that the happiness in the little girl's heart when she knew her dad was still alive.
Now, not to mention going back to Shirling, even if Megan came to pick her up, she probably wouldn't obediently follow her back.
When Chester went upstairs, he saw Alina sitting on the balcony outside her bedroom on the phone.
She said to Brandon, "Give me some time, I'm in such a mess that I can't draw anything, or you can find a good designer."
Now as far as the company is concerned, in terms of design, Alina's mind is now completely unable to keep up.
It is obviously related to her current mood.
Suddenly, the world seemed to be in chaos again. And her mind could no longer keep up.
"Okay, I'll step up my search."
"Okay."
When Alina hung up the phone, Chester took her into his arms from behind and she subconsciously tried to struggle.
Yet when a familiar scent was felt, the struggle stopped.
"Didn't you say you weren't coming back for lunch? Back so soon?"
"What did she say to you?" The man buried his head in her neck.
Alina turned around, her cold hand cupping his face and meeting his eyes, saying, "Back because of this?"
"I'm worried about you."
Alina, "..."
Originally, the words that had just come to mind, and even more so the decisions that had been made could not even be uttered at this.
"I'm not a child anymore, who can do anything to me?" Alina snapped, before getting out of his arms.
Chester, "Abby."
"How much those people supported us before, how much they can want to separate us now, you know, that's human nature."
The fickleness of people's hearts is reflected in Vanessa.
