The moment the engagement news broke, all eyes were on her, and all those people must have thought she would make a scene, right?
Yet it was unexpected that she would be so quiet, as if nothing that happened had anything to do with her.
Alina, "What? You think that I will go up to Eglinton to make trouble?"
Caleb answered without thinking, "You're not like that."
When she heard these words, Alina laughed, looked at Caleb with ridicule.
"So what kind of person am I?"
Acting like he know her now? What about all that happened back then?
It was as if Alina had heard a joke.
Caleb could hear the meaning in Alina's tone, his heart had a dull ache for a moment, it hurt.
"Alina, back in the day..."
"It's long since been irrelevant to me."
When she left Ingford, everything had been completely put aside for her.
Caleb, "..."
Alina looked at Caleb, and the mockery showed under her eyes.
"Go."
"Alina."
"The Collins family has made me a fool and more of a joke, and I have nothing to say to you now."
It was not only him, but Chester.
Caleb had to admit that Alina was really being made into a fool.
"All those years, you really did not treat me..." At this moment surprisingly Caleb said no words.
What was it like in those years?
And in talking about those years of their marriage, Alina's eyes were cold.
She said, "All those years?"
Caleb, "..."
Alina, "All those years, you lied to me."
Caleb, "..." What answer does he want to know? Whether or not she had really been in love with him all those years?
But in the heart of Alina today, he deceived her for Emma.
Without waiting for him to say anything, Alina continued, "You Collins family have made me make more than one or two jokes."
In saying this, she was not sure whether she was being sarcastic with Caleb or with herself.
During those years of marriage, he was responsible for her, and even in his tender moments, she had her heart set on him.
Unaware of her memory loss, at that time she really thought that it was not a bad idea for her to spend her life with him.
But who would have thought that the tenderness he showed her was a lie?
When the memory came back, she really wanted to die.
But she can't.
Vanessa wants her to die. Her parents, her grandmother, were all pushed completely to hell at her hands.
And even if she died, it was definitely not at that time, was it?
To this point, Caleb knows that the past is not destined to be talked about between them.
