I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband
Chapter 396 Once again suspicious

Tomas saw Caleb's complete lack of intention to come out and his brain was pulsating.

"How is the Collins family going?" Caleb asked.

And when it comes to the Collins family, Tomas feels even more like Caleb is totally not Vanessa's son.

After he entered the prison, it was as if all her thoughts were not on him, and she even felt that it didn't matter if Caleb went to jail.

How can there be such a mother in this world?

"Yesterday afternoon, Madam personally went to Mulherd Manor and picked up Miss Penny, and it was late to send her back to Miss Hughes."

At this moment, when Caleb heard the words 'Miss Hughes', he only felt so harsh.

Since when on earth had Alina become Miss Hughes in his world, instead of Mrs. Collins?

"Penny?"

"Yes, Miss Hughes's daughter is called Penny."

Caleb silently recited this name in his heart, and at this moment, the hollowness in his eyes could not be stopped.

Between them, there were children more than one.

"Tomas."

"Yes."

"Am I useless?"At this moment, Caleb felt desperate in full measure.

Pain, more subtle, spreads through his heart.

She was the one he wanted to protect the most and the one he should have protected the most, yet all these years, it was because of those ridiculous helplessness that hurt her all over the place.

Think of Alina's helplessness and pain back then, and the desperation to protect the child three years ago, all of that desperation has come back to him in full force at this moment.

Tomas, "You just have the wrong person."

The fault was his mistaken identity.

So now he deserves this end, he is blind, therefore deserves to suffer this pain.

Tomas looked at Caleb and said, "Master Chester's proposal ceremony for Miss Hughes..."

When he said this, Tomas paused in his tone and looked at Caleb with a bit more intolerance. Caleb did not want Alina to marry Chester.

In fact, his heart, at some point, had already gone to Alina.

And now..

Whether Alina and Chester really don't care about ethics between them, but all over the world, after that speech in Eglinton, they all wanted to have Alina and Chester together, thinking that they were the pair that should be together the most.

In this way, it is entirely possible for these two to break the chains of ethics.

"In Shirling." After thinking about it, Tomas said it after all.

The proposal ceremony he prepared for Alina was in Shirling, and this alone showed how much he meant to Alina.

"Why was Penny picked up at the Collins'?" Caleb thought for a moment and didn't directly answer Tomas' words, but instead asked such a question.

Caleb thought their attitude towards Alina based on Emma.

Because they disliked Emma, they acted a bit more fondly towards Alina.

Now that Emma has ended up like that, and he and Alina are completely over, they are still goo to Alina.

And they treats Alina's child like their granddaughter.

"Probably because they have already decided about Master Chester and Miss Hughes."

So it would have been good for Penny, the child born to Alina.

Tomas clearly felt the cold scent emanating from Caleb's body.

"Did you replace out who the child really belonged to?" That child had been over in Shirling.

So they are concerned not much.

It was always thought before that she was Alina and Andre's daughter, but Andre and Alina were not married.

In that case, who was the father?

Does it mean that she really had other men during her years in Shirling?

And speaking of the child, Tomas looked apprehensively at Caleb.

"Do you really not feel anything?" Tomas said apprehensively.

"What?"

"Didn't it look familiar when you saw that face?"

Was he supposed to be familiar with that child?

Tomas, "That child looks like you."

Although he didn't get any tangible evidence, Tomas felt that the child was in all probability Caleb's. "And in terms of timing..."

When he said this, Tomas didn't continue, while inside Caleb was now, however, already turning over.

His brain went blank.

Caleb kept thinking this concept of time around in his head.

He wasn't too good at maths when he was at school and wasn't too sensitive to anything to do with numbers.

Plus, after Alina came back, he was furious time and again. His mind was almost always muddled whenever it came to matters concerning Alina.

"You mean, by the reckoning of time, that child was actually three years ago when she left..."

The further he said, the less Caleb could hear his own voice.

So, Alina has deceived him?

That damn woman. When he thought of this, Caleb could not rest in anger, how dare Alina lie to him?

To this day, Caleb can still remember how natural she looked at the time when talking about Andre being her husband.

And she was surprisingly calm when talking about the fact that the child was Andre's child.

Since when on earth did that woman not even blink when she lied?

Caleb was completely mad.

Bailey is back in Ingford, and before the itinerary is finalised, Chester takes Alina to his hospital first.

While Alina was checking, Chester's phone vibrated, and he picked it up.

"Hello."

There was no telling what was actually said on the other side of the phone, only that Chester's face sank. he said in a sombre tone to the other side of the phone, "I got it."
