I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525 She was wrong

Andre came back and froze for a moment when he heard that Chester had arrived.

At the moment, Alina is sitting on a wicker chair on the balcony, looking at the lake not far away, her back looking a bit forlorn.

Andre stepped forward, came up behind her and said, "You know he is here, right?"

Alina stiffened, "Yeah."

Andre, "What are you afraid of?"

"Andre..."

"Yeah?"

"There was actually no way out between me and him when I knew Caleb was the one that night, and for a while after that, I was wrong."

It should have occurred to her then that she and Chester had been good together, so how could the Collins family not know? And for her to marry Caleb, there must be something behind this.

In fact, at that time, she should have stayed away from Chester, shouldn't she?

The last thing she wanted to see in this next battle with the Collins family was for Chester to be hurt, much less for that hurt to be self-inflicted.

Andre, "Alina."

"Vanessa schemed to get me raped by Caleb, and later got me married Caleb when I lost my memory, and we even had Penny, and that was all a hurdle I couldn't get over inside." So something deeper is definitely going to be dug out.

All these things had become a roadblock between her and Chester, and now so much more was happening.

Chester's step-by-step approach is even more desperate for her to avoid.

"How can I not go and turn the whole thing over when there's something behind it, maybe involving Mum and Dad and Grandma?"

Since she had to turn these things over, there would be any way out between them.

What could be more desperate than now for Alina?

Andre, "So, you're afraid, are you?"

Andre had always known that Alina was afraid,.

And it was the first time in all his years in the business world that he had seen such a dead-end situation that left a person in a dilemma.

If there are no feelings, so be it.

But it was because she had such deep feelings for Chester that she was in dilemma.

"You know what? When I saw how well Penny and Chester got along and how much she longed for her father's love, I feel more than scared."

"You're afraid you'll hurt Penny?"

"Once Penny knew that Caleb was her father and she was calling her uncle her father..." The words that followed could not be said by Alina.

After sensing that something was not right.

It was the first time that Alina had thought about it positively, and her heart was, apparently, hollow.

When Andre heard these words, he thought of what Chester had said to him on the phone that night.

Subconsciously, he was about to say something, but thought of the seriousness of the matter, especially as there was a larger conspiracy behind it, he swallowed the later words.

"Let's not think about Penny and Chester for now, after all, the child is still young now." Who knows how it will change later on?

Alina opened her eyes.

The emptiness in her eyes was even more intense.

The child is really still young.

But the child will grow up, then, how should she explain it?

She is a selfish mother, but at the same time she thinks a lot about her child.

...

Because of Chester's arrival, Zane's spirits had improved. At the dinner table, Alina tried hard not to let her grandfather see anything, allowing Chester to help her with food as he always did.
