Chapter 10 Alina leaves in the afternoon
Since her marriage to Caleb, Vanessa's already distant attitude toward her has gotten worse.
She can't say what's wrong with it, but it's obvious that she doesn't like Alina.
But this time, after Alina made it clear that she and Caleb were getting a divorce, Mrs. Collins acted as
if it had never happened.
These behaviors, too, are incomprehensible to Alina.
When she was back at Mulherd Manor, Andre had just come back from being outside, dressed in ink
attire, and was sitting somewhat tiredly at the dining room table watching Alina come in.
"You're there?"
"Well, just got back, have you had dinner yet?"
"Nope." Alina shook her head. She had eaten at the banquet with Mrs. Collins at noon and returned to
Collins Castle thinking about what to say to Grandpa Max.
After Grandpa Max agreed, she immediately left from there, fearing that she would be left in Collins
Castle for another night.
Andre, "What are you and Mrs. Collins up to now?" The whole of Ingford is now in an uproar over the
photos of her and Mrs. Collins at the party.
And it seems to Andre that Alina would never want to be involved with the Collins at this time, but
now...
Alina walked over and sat across from Andre, the maid hurriedly added cutlery for her. Alina picked up
her fork and ate, saying, "You're not a gossip, so don't read what's going on in Ingford these days."
"I'm just worried about you." Andre was telling the truth.
This time Alina came back to focus on the investigation of her grandmother, and as for the Collins
family she also wanted to finish it.
Things were going well up, but with the Collins family's closure, Alina frowned, "Things are in a bit of
trouble right now."
"The old Collins disagrees?" Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"Yeah." Alina nodded.
Andre also knew what kind of presence the old Collins had in Alina's heart. He was the only dear friend
of her grandmother who reached out to her and took care of her after she lost everything.
He said, "If it's because of the old Collins, then you don't need to worry about it."
"What do you mean?"
"Max can support until today, probably waiting for you to come back. Three years ago you suddenly
disappeared, Max almost did not survive."
Alina’s heart thumped, ans she looked at Andre with puzzles.
Andre saw what she was thinking, "Once I came, I realized that there are actually people here who
miss you."
Alina's heart tightened. In the past three years, Andre just knew how she was desperate to leave this
place, but never know that there was someone she cared about.
When Caleb returned to Collins Castle in the evening, the butler froze when he saw him, after all,
Master Caleb hadn't been back in years.
He stayed here last night, and came back today.
"Master Caleb," said the butler, respectfully stepping forward.
Caleb looked at the brightly lit mansion and took a glance at the empty dining room.
He frowned and asked, "Is it past dinner time?"
"No, Max had dinner over in the main building tonight, and Madame is in her room."
"Where is she?" Caleb's breath tightened.
Butler, "Lady Alina left this afternoon."
Caleb's eyes darkened.
Didn't she to go a party with his mother, how come she had left now?
