I’m Richer Than My Billionaire Ex-Husband Novel Chapter 488
Chapter 488 Is there really something hiding from Alina?
In the study.
Ronan looked at Chester with a stony face and said, “Andre is looking into this.”
Chester, “What?”
“I think it has something to do with Miss Hughes.” Ronan said analytically, after thinking about it.
Andre had nothing to do with Ingford at all, but now he was even looking into this, so it must be Alina who had suspicions.
The change in Vanessa was already obvious during this time, plus the fact that she asked those questions of him, showed that
she was doubting in her mind.
But Chester didn’t expect that she would ask Andre to look into it.
“Sir.” Ronan looked at Chester intently.
If this matter continues to be investigated now, it is possible that Alina will know about it.
And what do those things mean to Alina?
The truth was like an onion, she had peeled less than a third of it now, and it was what was inside that stung the most.
She had been driven into the depths of madness back then, so how was she going to cross over now that she knew what was
more inside?
“I’ll take care of this.”
“Okay.”
Ronan left.
When Chester was left alone in the study, a dark, dangerous cold light shone under his eyes.
The phone flashed with Andre’s number.
it picked up.
“Hello.”
“It’s me.” Chester tried to be calm as he said to Andre.
And Andre did not expect Chester to call him at this time.
Frozen for a moment, he asked, “What is it?”
“Stop the investigation.” Chester uttered.
Andre, “So, you really have something to hide from Alina?” He hadn’t expected Chester to notice it, he had done enough to hide
it.
Chester is capable. It is reasonable that information of Eglinton could be in his hands in a short time.
Without waiting for Chester to speak, he heard Andre say stoically, “She trusts you, have you thought about what the
consequences of this will be?”
“If she does find out, it’s the consequences that will be incalculable.”
“What’s that?” Andre asked.
At this moment, in the dimly lit space, an unprecedented pain passed through his eyes.
Half an hour later.
Even Andre could no longer calm down inside, “The child is...”
The latter words were no longer spoken by Andre, and his breath was tinged with trembling.
Chester, “It is now basically confirmed, other matters are now still digging deeper.”
Chester and Chester were shocked when the truth of the child was laid out in front of them.
Digging deeper, even they probably wouldn’t be able to take it, let alone Alina.
She has been hurt enough and has long been broken inside.
Chester was genuinely afraid that she would not be able to bear it.
Andre, “It’s a quagmire.”
At this moment, even Andre could not help but tremble when he heard such a result.
He has seen a lot of complicated things, but the Collins family, a place that is calm on the surface is deep as quagmire.
Chester, “So, do you still continue to check?”
At this, Andre couldn’t help but draw a breath.
Without answering Chester’s question, he asked again sharply, “Do you think that Alina can be by your side now?”
“...”
“Are you sure that you can protect her and the child now?”
Chester, “...”
He had always wanted to protect Alina.
Back when he knew she was hurt like that, he felt guilty and hated Caleb.
Now it seems that both he and Caleb are just people who are being counted in the scheme.
Chester, who had always been firm in his answers whenever it came to Alina, was silent at this moment.
“It probably started in Max’s generation.”
Andre clearly analysed.
The Collins family has a long history and the successive heads of the family have naturally sown many evils on this path of
youthful exuberance.
No wonder Max had always let Alina be in the Collins family, and even ended up marrying Alina to Caleb.
It’s kind of protective of her, isn’t it?
This protection was ultimately in vain.
“She and I have missed out for many years, and now I can’t trust anyone while the root cause is slowly surfacing, understand?”
No matter who he left Alina to, the Chester of today could not rest assured, let alone trust anyone, even if that person was Andre.
Andre was silent.
He understood how Chester had felt all these years after losing Alina.
But now this matter has seen the general root cause, but the root cause is surrounded by intricate roots, and what he sees is not
necessarily the clearest.
Once upon a time, was obedient to his Grandpa, as well as Alina’s parents and grandmother, believing that as long as he left
Alina, he was really doing her a favour and would allow her to live the rest of her life in peace.
But he was wrong.
After that incident, Chester was no longer willing to leave her in the hands of anyone and would not listen to anyone when it
came to her.
When he thought of Penny, the moment Chester opened his eyes, his eyes were even more determined.
“If my letting go only ushers in greater turmoil for her, she can only be by my side, no matter what hardships and dangers she
faces.”
After saying that, without waiting for what Andre was saying, Chester hung up the phone.
Andre heard the ‘beep’ sound coming from the phone, and thought of Chester’s words before he hung up the phone.
At that moment, he understood.
After so many tumultuous moments, this is the kind of protection that Chester now has for Alina.
With her by his side, he would be sure to put things right in the calmest way possible.
Pola came in.
“Sir.”
“What is it?” Coming back to his senses from what happened to Alina, Andre looked at Pola.
Pola, “Miss Nellie James is here.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Pola clearly felt that the aura on Andre’s body was instantly icy cold at this moment.
“Tell her to get lost.” Andre lit a cigarette and said in a cold voice.
Pola froze, and then nodded, “Okay.”
When Pola walked away and Andre was left alone, he was trying desperately to hold something back.
