Become Filthy Rich After Divorce

Chapter 187 The Farmer and the Snake

Ingford.

At the Royal Landscape Restaurant, Alina and Chester were seated by the window, and at the

moment, Alina was downing glass after glass of wine.

But the weight of her heart was still there.

Her mind was reeling, the memories pounding away at her sanity and her soul.

The wine in her glass didn't seem to be enough. Just as Alina picked up the bottle and was about to fill

it for herself, there was a force on her wrist.

The man's voice was gentle, "This is very strong wine, you can't drink like this, eat something."

Chester's brow furrowed slightly.

He had sent a message to Hector to find out what was going on.

Alina, "Chester, don't ask any questions right now, just let me drink for a while, okay?"

Alina's tone was suppressed.

And it was a tone that Chester could hear clearly, and therefore the man could hear the pain that she

was suppressing.

However, Chester did not let go.

"If you keep drinking, you're probably going to be in the hospital for a week, do you really want to?"

Alina was so sick of hospitals after that incident three years ago, she really didn't like hospitals at all.

Being in a hospital meant that it was really hard for a person.

The smell of sterile water was a constant reminder of what that place was like.

"Be good, okay?" The man's voice was full of coaxing and then, little by little, he took the bottle out of

Alina's hand.

The moment he did, Chester seemed relieved.

However, Alina, who was already in an uncontrollable mood, broke down and cried.

There were not many customers in the restaurant, but when they heard such cries, they all looked at

Chester and Alina.

However, the chill on the man's body was so cold that it instantly shifted people's attention.

He was terrifying.

He was a completely different being to Alina. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Chester didn't say anything, he just looked at Alina calmly, watching her cry like a child.

And Alina was not a child, she was suffering endless pain that no child could ever bear.

For a long, long time, after crying, she finally calmed down.

"Why is it human like this?"

The heart of man is evil.

These words hit her heart so hard.

"I didn't know that before, but now I've experienced it completely." As she said this, Alina lifted the glass

of wine in front of her and took another sip.

The spicy liquid seemed to be the only thing that could make her feel better.

Chester, "Eat something." Chester looked at her as she tried to pour herself another drink.

Chester was a bit of a pain in the arse.

But now Alina couldn't eat anything.

She said, "They say that hearts are made of flesh, and that hearts are exchanged for hearts. So what if

they don't have a heart?"

Chester's eyes were deep in Alina's, and at that moment, his gaze seemed to penetrate.

It was as if he was trying to read her mind.

Chester, "That's the farmer and the snake."

At that, she smiled.

There was bitterness and sarcasm in that smile.

Yes.

The farmer and the snake, wasn't their family and Emma the farmer and the snake? When she thought

of Emma, her eyes flashed with tears.

The thought of Emma brought an endless flash of hatred to her eyes.

She got up.

She couldn't help it.

The words were like a magic spell, they all said 'justice' to her, yes, justice.

Just as she turned around and took two steps, there was a force on her wrist, "Alina."

She was going to Werland Villa.

The hatred that was rolling around in Alina's head was eventually eating away at her sanity.

And it was wearing her down, little by little.

Chester's phone rang, it was a message from Hector, just a picture and a message.

Chester instantly understood what had happened to Alina on her journey, dropped the phone on the

table and pulled her into his arms.

"Do you want to cry?"

What had she been through?

Even a big man like Chester could not help but feel the pain in his gut when he found out.

What the Hughes family meant to Emma, Chester knew very well at this point.

And yet, such an important existence has finally come to this point.

How could Alina stand it?

Alina, "Yes."

"Then cry."

Before, he didn't know why her emotions were so uncontrollable, but now, he knew, so let her cry.

How could she bear to be in such a situation?

It's cruel.

Really cruel.

No one could have imagined that such cruelty would happen in Alina's world.

Alina was really crying.

No one knew how much she needed a shoulder to lean on when she knew this.

No one knew how badly she needed a hug to cry on.

But what she didn't expect was that at her worst moment of anguish, at her worst moment of distress, it

was Chester, the man she wanted to avoid everywhere, who was there for her.

It's not about status, it's not about conflict.

Now she just wanted to cry, how perfect the Hughes family was, how broken it was for Alina now.

All that had been good had been destroyed.

She cried uncontrollably.

And uncontrollably, she let her emotions out.

"Alina." came the man's roar from not far away, Caleb's anger shattering all the peace and sadness.
