I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband novel Chapter 574

Chapter 574 It's impossible to sort out

Alina didn't know how she hung up the phone. Lucy wanted to say something to her to comfort her, yet she was soft on the sofa, her face ashen.

The vacant look, clearly unable to hear anything now, lasted until almost two in the morning, when she fell asleep.

Only then did Lucy quietly bring her a cup to cover it.

...

Waterside Villa.

Penny looked at Chester with tears in her eyes, and Chester said, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

His tone was all doting, and it was clear that he really liked the child too, and it was almost three o'clock.

Yet the child looked at him with tears in her eyes, with resignation.

"Daddy."

"Yes?"

"I miss Mummy." Penny said pitifully.

The air in the room then chilled, and Penny, being an extremely intelligent child, naturally sensed the atmosphere in an instant.

Why did she go to Chester in Eglinton? Because Chester had been good to her and she was simple-minded.

Because he was good to her and said he was her father, she trusted Chester.

But this time.

After arriving at Chester's place, Penny clearly felt that something seemed to have changed between them.

Under his eyes, he didn't seem to have the same warmth as before.

Especially when it came to her mother.

He looked at her so coldly, without any half temperature or reassurance under his eyes, and even with suppressed danger.

"Daddy." Feeling the coldness on Chester, Penny's voice was weak.

She looked frightened.

"Go to sleep." Looking at the child looking at him defensively, Chester closed his eyes and held the child in his arms.

Soft and supple, with the scent of Alina seemingly still on her body.

After all these years.

Penny was in Chester's arms, her big eyes fluttering, not sleepy at all.

...

No one knows what kind of nightmare Alina had over in overnight.

At 4am, she felt as if she had slept for a century, sitting on the sofa, her eyes shining with endless deep pain.

What role did Vanessa play in her world? Those nightmares were tearing her awake.

Those eyes were so malevolent, in fact, every time something happened to her parents and grandmother, she actually had a premonition.

But there is nothing that can be done about it.

Her scream resounded through Mulherd Manor, with absolute hatred for Vanessa.

Chester had always been obstruction between them, because of Chester, the belated revenge and finality had finally come.

Yet even though Vanessa had gone now, the hatred she felt for Vanessa in her heart was still there.

In this strong rendering of hatred, everything between Chester and her was completely covered up, even faded.

When she heard the commotion, Lucy put on a coat and went downstairs, seeing Alina sitting on the sofa in a state of distress.

Seeing that her hair was scattered, Lucy was in shock.

It was as if she had seen Alina back then, whose sanity was once stimulated and damaged after that night.

She was like this, in Mulherd Manor, on this couch, out of control.
