I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 Marriage proposal

Now Kara was accusing her of not saving Emma?
Macy closed her eyes. Annie returned from outside, carrying bags of things.
Seeing Macy's gloomy face, she dropped what she was holding and ran forward, "Sis, what's wrong with you?"
It was only Annie who dared to come up when Macy was in such a state. Anyone else who came up would surely be scolded by her viciously.
Sure enough, seeing Annie, the gloom on Macy receded little by little, "Nothing, gone shopping?"
"Yeah."
"It's time to buy more clothes, when you're sick, you don't even get to dress up, you wear sick clothes every day."
The thought of those times makes Macy's heart ache even more for her sister.
If she hadn't gone to jail then, it wouldn't have caused Annie's health to deteriorate, let alone have her end up in a situation where she had to have a kidney transplant.
"It's cost a lot of money today."
"It's okay, in the future, your husband can have more money than you can spend." For this amount of money, Macy didn't even take it seriously.
Annie laughed.
The two sisters look so harmonious and so wonderful.
Macy said, "In three days, there will be a banquet, wear the blue dress."
Annie nodded obediently, "All at your service."
Macy smiled contentedly, she loved how her sister was so obedient and well-behaved.
...
Waterside Villa.
Alina began to ask nothing, to dwell on nothing, to spend time with her child and to devote herself to her work.
The wedding dress was an achievement for her.
Previously, she was too distracted to draw anything, which led to the 'Growth' series being put on hold, but today, in one afternoon, she drew out all the drawings.
When Chester came back and found Alina in the drawing room, his heart was in awe.
"Abby." He had never brought her to this drawing room after Alina's return.
Over the years, every time he came back, this room was his place to vent his mind, it was his private place.
He didn't expect the butler to bring her in today, after seeing all those wedding sketches scattered on the floor, Chester knew that she would not press for anything more.
He put his mind in peace.
Alina turned around, saw Chester, put down the pen in her hand and beckoned to Chester, "Quick, come and have a look."
Knowing that Chester had a good base of drawing work and with her previous research on wedding dresses, she found someone in this field to talk to in common.
Chester stepped forward, wrapping one hand around her slender waist and taking the pile of drafts she had drawn today with the other, "So interested today?"
"That's for sure." Alina chuckled.
When people can't get up, it's usually because they have something too heavy on their mind, and when they think straight, it's just a matter of time.
Chester looked over her manuscript.
Her achievements over the years were not only due to Andre's promotion, but she herself was very talented and accomplished in this area.
Otherwise, how could he have reached the position he is in today just by being promoted by others?
"Is this a new product?" Chester asked.
Alina nodded, "Yeah, but I always feel that it's a bit similar to my previous series, can you help me change it?"
Because she had drawn too much, her brain was a bit muddled, and Alina murmured in his arms.
Chester hugged her and kissed her, "Okay."
Chester is happy to come up with a collection of wedding dresses that everyone will love, together with her.
That sense of achievement is something he can't match with a hundred billion dollar contract on a project.
Hearing his promise, Alina rubbed herself against his arms.
At the dinner table, looking at the interaction between Chester and Penny, Alina wanted to find the truth about it.
But since promising Chester not to ask so many questions, she has let them be.
After all, Chester looked genuine. And Penny felt happy.
After dinner.
Chester took Penny and her for a walk, as he always does, and after the maid had given Penny a bath, he put her to bed himself.
And Caleb at the hospital was getting better. But after that, he never offered to see Alina again.
On the contrary, Vanessa wanted to drag her to the hospital at any moment.
"Actually, you don't need to put her to bed, she is a big kid." When Chester returned to the room, Alina said in a gentle tone.
There's a bit of helplessness in that tone.
After all, these days, for the intimacy between Chester and Penny, Alina had been reminded of it.
But Chester never took her words to heart.
Chester embraced her, "When she gets older, she won't need me."
And he was going to cherish the time.
Alina did not know what to say at this moment.
"How is Caleb doing?" Rubbing against his arms, Alina asked in a soft voice.
Although Chester didn't say anything, she knew that Chester had been running over to the hospital every day for the past few days.
Chester, "It is going well, we've found a kidney suitable for him, just waiting for the operation."
"So soon?"
"Yeah." Chester nodded.
At that time, it was only a matter of time before the Anla Mountain medical team went over and found a suitable kidney source.
However at that time Annie could not afford to wait, and Alina could not wait.
At this moment, when Alina heard that Caleb was about to operate, she was slightly relieved in her heart.
"Go to a party with me the day after tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay." Alina nodded, knowing that Chester was now already going to take her in all sorts of public appearances.
It was a response to Vanessa.
His chin rested on the top of her head and he said, "Abby, after Caleb's surgery, let's get married."
"Is this a marriage proposal?" Alina asked, frozen for a moment.
She had always remembered Shirling's proposal ceremony, and as he was about to give her a proposal ceremony, something went wrong in the midway.
Now what Chester wants is not a proposal ceremony. Rather, it's getting married, and he doesn't want more trouble in the middle of it.
"Will you say yes?"
"I will, of course." Alina said.
After going through so much with Chester, she had long ago stopped caring about the pomp and circumstance.
All she wanted was a peace of mind with him.
Between them, too much has been missed and too much has happened.
"Abby." Chester was shocked, not expecting Alina to agree to him.
The force of the hold on her was heavier at the moment.
Alina, "We have missed too much between us, I am afraid..." Alina did not continue the latter words.
Chester, however, understood exactly what she was afraid of.
Nothing more than being afraid that there would be no opportunity to say to him, I do.
