At the thought that her parent and grandparents, even to the time of their death, did not know that she was not their bloodline, Alina felt heartbroken.
So she was even more determined to protect their child.
Even if she had to make an enemy of her sister, she would not hesitate to do so.
…
Penny’s homework has been getting better and better lately.
After Chester read the homework, he looked at the child with doting eyes, “Good job.”
“You think I’m good too?”
“Yes.”
“Then can I have a small request?” The child looked at Chester expectantly.
Chester looked at her inquiry eyes and there was a moment of pain in his heart.
Since when his daughter wanted something, she even needed to work so hard to exchange it for something?
“Want what?” At this moment Chester wanted to tell Penny that she actually didn’t need to work so hard, and he would meet all her demands.
Reaching out, he rubbed the top of the child’s hair in a doting manner.
Penny grabbed Chester’s hand, “When I get a perfect score on the final test, can you give me a vacation?”
“What do you want to do on vacation?”
“I want to go see my uncle, and I want to spend time with mummy.”
Hearing such a request from Penny, there was more than a touch of bitterness in Chester’s heart. She had a really good time when she was in the Lawson family.
This child was very smart, if the Lawson family had treated her badly, she would not have made such a request.
There was a time when he would always feel uncomfortable in his heart when he saw Andre guarding Alina like that.
But now he was grateful to Andre.
Because of Andre, Alina and Penny had suffered a lot less.
“You don’t need to get all full marks, I will give you a holiday, for a month!” Half a month was too little.
Penny’s eyes instantly lit up.
“Really?”
Chester, “Of course.”
“Thank you, Daddy.” Penny was instantly happy after hearing this.
She had really missed her uncle during this time, but there was one thing she had learnt in the Ajax family.
Whatever she wanted, she had to get it through her own efforts, as once she wanted to see her mother, she had to work hard.
She thought it would take more effort to get a holiday, but she didn’t expect to get this answer from her dad.
Romeo came in.
“Brother.”
At the moment, Romeo looked very grave.
Chester knew at a glance that something must have happened again and turned to Penny, “Go on.”
“Okay.”
The child managed to get a holiday and didn’t pester him.
She took her homework and ran out. Romeo looked at the figure of the child and couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
This was a sinful fate!
Penny was born in a sinful relationship, yet it was also such a tangle that Chester and Alina would probably never end.
However, right now Alina probably couldn’t end it with Chester either!
Once it’s over, many of the Ajax family’s sidekicks will probably turn into fierce beasts and besiege her, and then even Sienna…
When it comes to Sienna, it seems that from the time Alina went back to the Ajax family, they have never trusted Sienna.
Even if she was Alina’s sister, they still couldn’t trust her!
It always felt like she got Alina back with an agenda of her own!
“What’s going on?” Chester’s tone sank when he saw Romeo’s consistently gloomy face and silence.
Romeo returned to his senses instantly.
Looking at Chester, he said in a gruff tone, “Sienna probably wants Paisley to become the heir of the Hughes family!”
“Paisley? Didn’t Alina find the real Hughes family’s descendant?”
Chester frowned.
All their attention during this period of time had been on Kubay, and even on the Ajax family as well.
More than that, they were focused on what Alina had been handling.
Alina didn’t know that during this period of time, many of the things she handled for the Ajax family went so smoothly, it was because Chester was behind it.
He would not let her encounter half the danger again.
“It is true, but Sienna was very insistent on making Paisley a descendant of the Hughes family!”
“…”
“Now there’s a big reaction from Alina. Probably…” Romeo’s gaze towards Chester became more grave.
If Alina and Sienna were to get into a fight, then the current situation would definitely not be simple.
Chester took a deep breath and pinched his sore brow.
“They’re hostile now?”
“Almost!”
In fact, Chester had already expected this.
According to Sienna’s character, and against Alina’s nature that valued kinship too much, the kinship between them would be overturned sooner or later, but he didn’t expect it to come so soon.
“Go and find out who Paisley is!”
“Marcus’ sister!”
This person was not unfamiliar to Chester, after all, Sienna was always with Marcus since she had disappeared all these years.
It was just a pity that the man that Sienna had taken a fancy to had a bad life and died early.
If Marcus hadn’t died, when Sienna found Alina, she wouldn’t be to go back with Alina, but for Alina to go back to the Ajax family by herself.
“It won’t be that simple!” Chester took a puff of his cigar and said in a deep tone.
Romeo, “You mean this Paisley’s identity is not simple?”
“What’s the point of targeting the Hughes family for no reason? Go check it out.”
When the Hughes parents passed away before, they really didn’t leave much behind, after all, both of them were professors, so naturally there wasn’t much in terms of property.
Later, apart from those shares in VIG, everything else was earned by Alina’s own efforts.
Therefore, she did not have to return those things to the descendant of the Hughes family, and she only had to return those shares of VIG and those houses.
It’s only such a small amount of stuff, so why would Sienna personally take action?
So this Paisley’s identity was naturally not simple.
“Okay.” When Chester said this, he also felt that it must not be simple, and he had to find out what was going on right now.
“What about Alina?”
The matter had to be investigated, but Chester was worried about Alina.
Alina was so protective of the real descendant of the Hughes family, so she would never listen to Sienna on this matter.
The two sisters have become completely hostile.
Although they had seen the tactics of Alina after she went back to the Ajax family, but with someone of Sienna’s tough nature, Alina would obviously not be her match.
“She is already in Shirling?”
“Yes.”
“Then I’ll go there myself.”
“Don’t.” As soon as Romeo heard that Chester wanted to leave Kubay, he stopped it.
Now that the matter with the Spinster family had just been settled, many things were not yet stable, how could he leave at this time?
However, Chester’s intention had already been decided, after all, now Alina was having a rift with Sienna, and he was worried that that woman would use those tactics against Alina.
