Chester was right, even if Zofia was only someone close to Sienna, he was still someone who had grown up in Ajax's since childhood.
"Have you told my sister-in-law?" Romeo felt that this reminder from Chester was completely unnecessary.
Just a girl. Was Chester worried that he would run away with her?
It was himself he should be worried about now, from the way Alina had just walked away, and those few slaps on his face, it was evident that the conversation between them had been unhappy.
Tell her what?
Tell her what kind of threat he had with Asher at the time? Why was she treated so badly?
In that case, according to Alina's temper, things will turn out to be even worse.
They are now in a situation that makes it impossible to rationalise emotions.
If that were true, then it would be better not to say anything at all.
"Brother, we can't let sister-in-law and the Ajax family continue to go deeper, she must be out of the hands of the Ajax family as soon as possible." Romeo said in a gruff tone.
Now, he has checked out all those projects that Sienna sent to Alina.
These are absolutely detrimental to Alina.
Chester narrowed his eyes, "It won't be too long."
Hopefully, it won't be too long.
Romeo frowned, worried about Alina.
Chester turned around, smiling. In this point, Romeo was better than Caleb.
"Arrange your business, and get on with it."
"Okay."
Romeo nodded, knowing that the situation was now imminent.
...
Alina on her way back.
All the time she looked out of the window, the atmosphere in the carriage was heavy.
Zofia wanted to speak, but looking at Alina's sullen side face, she said nothing in the end.
"Drop me off in the river bank."
Was she going to be alone?
"No, Lady Melody." Zofia refused without thinking.
Alina put on a smile, "What, are you afraid I'll get lost? Or do you think I'll be in danger?"
Although Kubay is very chaos now, Chester won't let anything happen to her easily, but Zofia is not at ease.
Zofia, "Better let me accompany you."
"You told Sienna I would come to see Chester, right?"
So at that time, Alina knew very well that even if she didn't admit it, in fact, Sienna already knew the truth of the matter.
If she had lied then, she was afraid that things would have been even more serious.
Zofia was silent.
Eventually, at the river bank, Zofia, in her uneasiness, dropped Alina off, but did not immediately drive away.
Alina gave her a stern look, "Go."
"Lady Melody."
The moment the words left her mouth, Zofia clearly felt the murderous aura under Alina's eyes, and she could only drive the car away with a frightened heart.
When Alina was left alone on the spot, the icy coldness on her face was the kind of gloom that had never been seen before.
Zofia was gone.
When she was left alone, Alina turned around and headed deeper into an alleyway, knowing there was someone behind her.
So, it took several lanes in a row to get rid of the person.
Finally, arriving at the door of a small ancient villa, she knocked on the door five times in succession, and a man's low voice came from inside, "Come in."
Alina pushed open the door and walked in.
...
This is the beggar whom she saved on the road when she was pregnant with Penny.
She had no idea that the man who looked ragged and wretched at the time, even disfigured, could not conceal his beauty.
His silvery hair is particularly dazzling.
"Think about it, once you stand with me, you might be standing against the Ajax family and the Spinster family."
Alina spun the crystal beads in the water and said in a profound tone.
The man lifted the tea , "Is that all you need from me?"
Just a moment ago, Alina spoke of her plan.
And this man, because of her kindness of a meal back then, thought nothing but agreed to it. Alina did not expect the beggar she saved at that time would have crossed paths with her here in Kubay.
Alina nodded, "I've just returned to the Ajax family now, everything is unstable for me, I have to take precautions."
This is not the time for her to be in Ingford and Shirling.
Whether it was for the Ajax family or the Spinster family, even if it was for the sake of Penny in the future, she had to be prepared now.
Once a woman becomes a mother, she can't be weak.
"Leave everything to me." The man said in a faint tone.
Alina got up and left a card behind, "The sooner the better."
"Yes."
The man did not refuse.
Alina is trying to build up people in the shadows of the Ajax family and the Spinster family who can truly be of use to her.
As she walked to the door, Alina turned back, "Thank you so much, Simon."
Although this was the third time they had seen each other, Alina always felt that the vicissitudes under his eyes were too familiar.
The man nodded wordlessly, and it was this silence that surprisingly gave Alina a trust.
Of course, for the moment their partnership is a sort of trade, but sooner or later she will make this man available to her.
