I'm richer than my billionaire ex-husband
Chapter 400 You married me, it was a conspiracy.

She was very young at the time.

Yet the world has turned upside down.

How important a 'peace of mind' is to her can be imagined, but what about Caleb?

"You could have not married me, but why did you marry me reluctantly and then trample on me?" She was a parasite.

He is not, and he is free to have his own ideas.

"Alina." At this moment, hearing such words from Alina, Caleb's heart was almost throbbing.

No, it's not like that, not reluctantly.

He married her and always meant it.

"You married me, with a hidden agenda. In fact, when you married me, Emma told you that she was seriously ill, right?"

This was originally a reckoning by Emma.

That reckoning by Emma had already begun long before she knew that the person Caleb had married was her.

No, in fact,, Emma's illness was used to reckon with Caleb, and that night prevented her from becoming a mother for the rest of her life, while she was still in poor health. Emma really did manage to trap Caleb in such a clumsy way, with the tenderness that she was made for.

"No, no, it's not what you think." marrying her really wasn't some sort of a conspiracy.

Yet against the sharpness in Alina's eyes, Caleb moved his lips to explain, yet nothing could be explained.

So much had happened between them, so much, that he was now unable to explain it.

Alina, "Hmph."

With a cold snort, it was clear that she did not want to say anything to Caleb.

"I don't know what the purpose of your visit is, but please remember one thing in future, I have nothing more to do with you."

"

"I don't want to see you either." Revenge?

Alina really wanted to tear Caleb apart and even let him spend the rest of his life in prison.

Yet the matter of Emma, in this long process, seemed to take all her strength.

Caleb has a very solid position in this city, to really get him in and even get punished, it was clear to Alina that it was a long time.

It's not that she can't do it.

Rather, there is no more energy.

She wanted to spend more time with Penny, who was going to school, and she wanted to take the child to and from school herself. So, she did not want to have anything to do with Caleb.

"Alina."

"I'm going back to Shirling, and I'll never see you again." It's over.

So, she's pretty much going back to Shirling.

When she came back to the city, she had no intention of staying here for a long time, just taking care of my grandmother's affairs. However, there would be an incident involving Mum and Dad afterwards.

It's all over now, whether it's Grandma's or Mum and Dad's.

So, it's time to go.

And Caleb's pupils even 'fiercely' tightened when he heard that Alina was going back to Shirling.

"You're leaving?"

"Do I have a reason to stay here?"

Thinking about Penny made Caleb's heart choke even harder.

She lied to him.

Yet he was in no position to blame her.

No one knew at the time how tormented he really felt when he found out from Alina's mouth that their child was a boy and did not live.

And no one knew what it was like in his heart when Alina said that the child looked like him.

Yet at that time, he was not even qualified to say anything.

Caleb is gone.

At noon, Chester came, and when he left in the morning, Alina sensed that he was not in the right mood.

But when he reappeared in front of her, everything was back to normal.

He helped Alina with food.

At that moment, Alina's gaze touched the embossed mark on the man's hand.

Her heart gripped together and she grabbedthe man's hand in one hand.

Chester stiffened, "Abby."

The moment he was touched by Alina, his heart was tingling and numb, as if a beast was colliding.

Alina, "At that time, did you know that you might not live?"

At that time, when Alina saw that snake, she could almost still accurately analyse in her mind that it was a highly poisonous snake.

She even mentally told herself 'it's over' and that if she was bitten she would be dead.

She couldn't believe that Chester couldn't analyse the problems that she could analyse, yet even if he had analysed everything, he stepped out for her. Looking at the pain that flowed from Alina's eyes, the smile on the corner of the man's mouth became even more gentle, and he took Alina's hand in his. His fingertips gently rubbed her hand.

"If I didn't step out, you'll die."

The snake, as Chester checked later, would have killed someone who was not in good health if they had not been rescued within two hours.

Even if a fit person is rescued, it can be a scary experience before they barely survive.

Alina's heart was already stuffy, and now that she heard Chester say so, her heart felt even worse, "Okay, hurry up and eat."

"Okay."

Alina nodded her head.

She wondered what kind of mood Chester was in when he rushed up there.

She saw the way Caleb fought for Emma, yet Chester even risked his life for her.

At one point before, it was impossible for her to accept such a relationship.

But now, the moment she saw Chester, Alina seemed to have the same reckless impulse of a young girl.

Chester looked at her, "What are you looking at?"

"You are good looking."

At those words, his brain 'buzzed' even more, "Do you know that it's dangerous to look at me with such eyes?"

The smile on his lips was tinged with a bit of derision.

Alina is a woman who can't stand teasing, and just now she even dared to flirt with Chester, and now she is blushing.

"Abby."

Seeing that she did not say anything, Chester took her in his arms and sat down with a soft kiss, which fell on her forehead.

That moment was tinged with caution and with cherished tentativeness.

It was as if she was a treasure, carefully held in his hands for fear that she might be frightened by it.

When Marry and some of the servants saw this, they all hurriedly walked away.

When there were only two people left, Alina leaned into Chester's arms, and at that moment, it only felt like she was so close to his heart.

Even the powerful beating of the man's heart could be clearly heard.

"And do you know how dangerous it was for you in Yee City?" The time the doctor said he might not survive, Alina only felt that her world was spinning.

She felt Chester's kindness to her, almost unnaturally kind, and even wondered at one point if he was approaching her with an agenda.

But when it was true that he lay pale on that hospital bed, what purpose would he have?

What kind of purpose is it that almost costs his life?
