I'm Richer Than My Billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 578 Things changed

Finally, Penny was taken away and amidst the chaos, Annie grabbed Chester's clothes, "Chester, today is your mother's funeral, everyone is watching." With one sentence, all were brought to their senses.

Chester looked at Alina with hostile eyes and finally let go of her, and the moment Alina got free.

The moment she got free, Alina was thrown to the ground, but Caleb was quick to help her.

And the way he held Alina's shoulders made the aura of danger flow more and more intensely.

"You go back first." Caleb said as he looked at Alina.

Alina looked at Caleb, and as soon as she did, she shook him off and came up to Chester and looked into his eyes.

She said, "Tell Lucas to bring me the child."

The thought of Penny kneeling with him just now, even more so, turned up shocking waves in Alina's heart.

A funeral for Penny to kneel for Vanessa?

He made Penny kneel with him every day? Then what were the three lives of the Hughes family?

Chester looked at Alina, anger flickering under his eyes, "Never."

It seemed to come out through clenched teeth.

He was forceful and did not budge in any way.

Caleb watched the sabre-rattling between the two and stepped forward to try to pull Alina away, he had clearly sensed the coldness on Chester.

"I must take Penny away today." Chester's attitude was strong, and Alina's attitude was equally strong.

The two faced each other.

Chester looked at her with a scarlet gaze.

Annie sensed his anger, she was standing right behind Chester, and at the moment looked triumphantly at Alina.

And then the seemingly relieving words were the ones that pushed the danger between the two even further to the freezing point.

Annie said, "Miss Hughes, you and Chester should wait until after your mother's funeral, there are so many people here now, you're making it hard for the funeral to go on."

"You and your mother had such a good time when she was alive, so why make such a scene when she's in the ground?"

The scene was instantly silent.

Chester's gaze was already scarlet when he looked at Alina.

Alina looked at Annie, narrowing her eyes.

And Caleb obviously sensed the increasingly anger from Chester, just as the scene became even more unmanageable, ruthlessly, he grabbed Alina's arm and dragged her straight out the door, "Go back first." "Let go of me."

"Alina!" Caleb's tone was heavier.

Whoever was present could see that there was no way Chester would let her take the child away today.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Making a scene like this will only make things more untenable between them.

Yet Alina, however, was already going crazy, "Master Caleb."

Is this the name she gives him now? So strange, and so distant.

His heart, for a moment, choked, and then his eyes were filled with an unconcealed sourness.

"Go." It was only half an instant before Caleb collected himself, clearly now was not the time to care about this.

Watching Alina being so sabre rattling at the funeral, Caleb knew that next she and everyone in the Collins family would be standing on opposite sides of the divide.

But he didn't care.

In the end, Alina was forcibly taken away by Caleb, Pola looked at Fabian with a deep gaze.

And then without looking back, he followed the direction of Alina in pursuit.

The funeral was going on.

Yet everyone's mind was now off this funeral, each with their own thoughts, and it just went weirdly on.

At the funeral.

Apart from Chester, neither Caleb nor Tristan appeared.

Who would have thought that Mrs. Collins, who once held an honourable position in Ingford, would not even have her children there when she died.

Even Julia, who had been kept by her, hadn't come.

She was hateful in life and sad in death.

...

Alina did not know how she was brought out by Caleb, she struggled, "Let go of me, let go."

"I will deliver the child to you." Caleb said in a cold voice the moment he shoved her into the car.

Alina, "..."

The atmosphere quieted down for the moment.

She looked to Caleb.

There was still coldness under those eyes that could not be concealed.

And then, she smiled.

That smile was so ironic.

Caleb said, "You shouldn't be making a scene at her funeral."

He knew that Alina hated the people who had hurt her parents and grandmother, and he could see it in the way she treated Emma, no matter what kind of friendship she had, if it was connected to the death of her parents and grandmother, then what she shows will surely be devoid of any warmth.

She would go crazy, would be reckless.

Alina, "Her funeral?"

So that's how important her funeral was.

Caleb drove the car himself, heading in the direction of Mulherd Manor, he said, "I know you hate her."

Caleb could not continue with the latter words.

She said before that she wanted to be on her, but when it really came to the chaos of the scene, it became clear that no one could empathise with her as much as she did.

Alina looked out of the window in silence.

Caleb, "Don't even go to him until the first seven days of her funeral."

After today's funeral, it is clear that Chester's attitude towards her had changed before Vanessa's death.

Or rather, those misunderstandings they had before were completely dissolved.

Other times are fine, naturally, he wanted her funeral to go smoothly.

So at this time, even if Alina came to the door, there would be absolutely no good consequences.

Alina, "I don't want Penny to show up at her funeral."

"She's the child's grandmother."

"She doesn't deserve it." Alina said through gritted teeth.

It can be told that hatred of hers has been driven.

Caleb looked sternly at Alina.

At this moment, it was as if he saw the Alina who once hated him, and now she was hating Chester with such a vicious intensity.

His heart was choking violently.

Because in this instant, Caleb seemed to realise something, that the distance between them, when Alina hated him like that, was getting farther and farther away. And now, she hates Chester in the same way.
