Become Filthy Rich After Divorce
Chapter 122 Stella's Gratitude

Grandma was a very important person to her too, and she couldn't forgive whoever caused that accident.

So, no matter what she did, she was going to replace the person.

Stella was gone.

Alina sat on the sofa and Lucy washed the fruit and gave it to Alina, saying, "This is a rare fruit, very few are produced in the harsh climate. Ms. Willlis sent to you."

Alina picked one up and took a bite, it tasted very good.

"It's delicious, it's the first time I've had this fruit. Next time I go back, I'll make sure to bring it to Grandpa."

But thinking about Stella's gratitude made her feel even worse.

"I just did a small favour, but I got such good fruit." she said,

What Emma had done was more than outrageous, it was unbelievable that she could do something like that.

And Lucy sighed when she said this.

"There are all sorts of people in the world, Lady Alina, don't take it personally."

"No one asks her for anything in return." But she was so ungrateful..

In the evening, Alina went to the Collins family after all.

In a long aqua blue dress, with a matching silk scarf, she looked elegant.

Julia met her and took Alina's hand in hers, "Alina, you're so pretty."

Julia really liked Alina, and even imitated her in many of her outfits.

And every time that style of dress came out, Vanessa liked it and said that's what girls should wear.

Alina's personality was very refined and her parents were teachers, so she always had a very elegant image.

"I saw the gift Dad gave you, it is very nice."

"Uncle Alby is so thoughtful."

"Dad would be upset if he heard what you called him." Julia muttered.

Alina stiffened for a moment.

So there was actually someone else in the Collins family who was thinking of her? Yes, she was here tonight, it proved that they thought of her. She thought she would have less and less contact with the Collins family after grandfather passed away.

"You are back." At the sight of Alina, Vanessa put down her cup of tea and moved with an air of grace.

Although she still had that cold look, in Alina's mind it could no longer be defined as a dislike of herself. There was still less time for them to spend together.

During her two-year marriage to Aubrey, she had spent very little time with his family, and now it seemed that people were not to be taken at surface. "Auntie Vanessa." Alina greeted politely.

Vanessa's face froze for a moment, and there was a flash of disappointment in her eyes, but she was soon relieved.

"Let's go."

Naturally, she held out her hand to Alina.

Alina, on the other hand, stiffened at the sight of Vanessa's hand.

Finally, placing her hand in hers, Vanessa pulled her towards the inner courtyard and said, "They've come back from abroad with some presents for you, have a look." She had always said that Mr. Collins had brought her gifts.

But what Alina didn't expect was Chester and Romeo brought her gift and Mr. Collins had brought her some international paints.

When she saw the paints, Alina was at a loss for words, "Thank you, Uncle Alby, I love it."

The address of Uncle Alby made Alby freeze and glance at Vanessa subconsciously. Vanessa, "Let's pretend we don't have that son."

Apparently, Vanessa was now angry at Caleb, and Emma was too much of a drama queen.

And yet, she's been so rambunctious that she's allowed Caleb to follow her around all the time.

So much for three years, and now Alina was back.

"Come on." Alby didn't look too good.

He was more disappointed in Caleb as a father than in Vanessa.

To do something like that three years ago had shattered everyone in the Collins family's perception of him, and made it annoying.

Chester and Tristan also brought Alina a present, which Alina was very touched by.

But at least it was remembered. Alina's heart was always empty without the old Collins at the family dinner, and Caleb came back halfway through, looking sullen, especially when he saw Alina. "You did not come back before, why you are here?." Vanessa sneered.

Alina froze for a moment, so this family dinner today did not call Caleb back at all?

Even Alina felt that Caleb had no place in the Collins family.

"Caleb, sit over here." Tristan saw that things were not right and got up from Alina and sat down.

The atmosphere, which had been good earlier, now felt strange because of Caleb's presence, and in any case, he didn't like it.

Vanessa grunted when she saw Tristan tell Caleb to sit.

"Alina, eat this." Vanessa put a piece of beef into Alina's bowl.

She loved beef.

"Auntie Vanessa, you eat too."

"What have I done to deserve to hear my daughter-in-law call me Auntie Vanessa."

"I must have offended someone in my last life. And now he came to get back at me.".

She was talking about Caleb.

Alina could feel the cold air rising from Caleb beside her.

And Vanessa kept on giving Alina food, and Alina, in the middle, found it hard to breathe between mother and son.

Ever since the divorce, the Collins did not like Caleb.

If it was a more aggressive family, Caleb might have been beaten up.

"The Collins family have not abandoned their wives for generations. In my generation, we've had child that have really tarnished our family name." Vanessa was still rambling on.

Caleb put the bowl down with force.

Vanessa was already angry and now she heard Caleb throwing such a fit, she said, "You even annoyed us in the family dinner."

Caleb looked at Vanessa with dark eyes, but Vanessa ignored him.

She was pissed off, and Julia dared not say a word at this moment.

In the end, Caleb left with anger.
