I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 499

Chapter 499 There's a reason behind it

Caleb, however, tilted his head in the direction of the window, his body exuding a detached and cold aura.
When Vanessa looked at Caleb's detachment like this, she didn't have any other suspicions and only thought that she had gone too far with him before because of Chester.
But that time Chester...
Thinking about the past, Vanessa's heart just ached.
Vanessa, "Caleb, I know I went too far with you before, but you're still my son."
"..."
"I was just too angry at that time, and you know because of the matter of Alina, Chester..." Vanessa could not continue the words that followed.
The tone of voice, for a moment, was choked.
Her heart really went out to Chester at that time.
Caleb smiled at her words.
He said, "You've always been a good person."
Yet beneath this mask of good people, no one knows what is really concealed.
And when Vanessa heard that, she had mixed feeling.
"Live well, and if you want to be with Alina, be with her, okay?"
And hearing these words from Vanessa, Caleb turned back, his eyes as deep as cold pools, looking straight at her.
"What's wrong?" Vanessa was timid by his stare.
After all, he was her son, and there was an overwhelming mania inside her at being looked at in such a way.
Caleb, "Chester has to be with Alina, have you forgotten?"
"..."
"Or, are you willing to let him get hurt again?" Before, she was so supportive of Chester, now she was on his side?
Just thinking about it makes Caleb feel ridiculous.
Vanessa was embarrassed by the remark.
She said, "I was wrong before, how can she be with Chester when you two have a child?"
"You were very persistent before."
"I was wrong." Vanessa didn't know how to explain.
Thinking about those words of Macy, every word of which so equally irritated her nerves, how could she now support Chester and Alina to be together?
The corner of Caleb's mouth lifted up into a smile, withdrawing his sarcastic gaze on Vanessa, he looked out of the window, "You are really a good person."
Whoever is weaker will be protected.
Vanessa, "..."
His tone was so light, but it felt harsh.
Vanessa did not feel good in her heart.
But in the end nothing was said.
...
Vanessa left and Julia always stood guard by Caleb's side.
"How are you feeling today, Caleb?" She asked with concern.
Over the years, no matter what kind of whirlwind they were in, the only person who could stay out of it was probably only Julia.
It was as if whatever it was, it couldn't reach her.
Caleb nodded, "Better."
"Wait until after the surgery and you will be back to your previous self." Julia said heartily.
After all, he was so high and mighty, and yet all this time time has been spent in hospital, which made it more or less impossible for those around him to accept.
Chester came and gave Julia a glance
Julia wisely stood up, "I'll be right outside."
After speaking to Caleb, she went out, even closed the door.
When it was just the two of them left, Caleb's gaze was still looking out of the window, he asked, "Is it really related to her?"
And when Chester heard these words, an unprecedented raging heaviness shone under his eyes.
"Don't worry about that now, operate first." Chester didn't want to say much on this matter.
But at this moment, even if he didn't say anything, the heavy breath on his body let Caleb know that it must be the truth.
In this instant, an air of despair covered his body.
"Caleb." Chester obviously felt this desperation.
Caleb, "That's our mother."
It was so sadly said.
He was never a sentimentalist, never emotional, much less overwhelmed by feelings.
But in all this time, first Alina and now...
Chester, "Let's ignore all that for now, a lot of things are not too certain right now, and you shouldn't be too sure."
"Is there any point in looking into it?" There was no telling how much more untoward they didn't know.
Without waiting for Chester to speak, Caleb continued, "I always felt that I was the scum that ruined her."
Yet who would have thought that there was something deeper?
Chester listened to Caleb's sad tone and said, "If you were the scum of her heart, she would feel better."
If he doesn't survive, it will be another devastating blow to Alina.
All fingers will be pointed at her.
Even with her clever mind, it will have an absolutely impact in her life.
Chester did not want Alina's world to endure such turmoil again.
"Chester, you have to be good with her." Not answering Chester's words, he just looked out the window, his tone deep and painful.
In Caleb's heart now, what was even worse than the pain was the despair, he thought he and Alina still had a tie, yet someone was behind this tie.
Now, there is nothing between him and her, and his elder brother was close to Alina now.
After such a heavenly upheaval in his world, he found that nothing was left between Alina and himself.
He hurts.
Now, what else can one do but to let go of her? Does he have to do what those people did back and break them up hard?
"Don't let her know the real cause of her parents' death, otherwise there will be a big upheaval based on her temper."
At that time, when it was said that Emma had killed Alina's parents and grandmother, Caleb did not believe it.
Emma has no such ability, she is just a puppet in the hands of those people.
"Yeah." Chester nodded.
Now at the moment a lot of things have not been turned over and it is not clear how many people were involved, but at least it has been established that their mother and that person had crossed paths before everything had happened.
Why those people wanted to kill Alina's parents?.
Of course, all this will be turned over by Chester bit by bit, until then, he will not let Alina know.
