Chapter 7 Always looking for you
Collins Castle was a castle hundreds of years old, but looked brilliant because it was well maintained.
Julia came back gleefully with Alina and met Mrs. Collins, Vanessa Mills, in the living room, “Mom, look who | brought home?”
The elegant woman looked at Alina and her face was very serious.
She put down the tea pot in her hand and said to Julia, “Julia, go see if the dessert Hana made for Alina is ready”
“Mom, Grandpa said to bring Alina back to him, it’s not late to eat after that:
“Julia” Mrs. Collins’ tone was heavy, serious and sharp, making Julia instantly cower.
Alina, pulling her hand out of Julia’s, uttered “Go ahead and check it out, I’m hungry’
“Oh, okay” Hearing Alina say that, Julia hurriedly ran away.
Her mother usually looks gentle, but when she is really angry, she is still very frightening.
Julia was gone.
Mrs. Collins looked at Alina seriously, and her tone was not good, “You’ve been away for more than three years, and when you show up, you’ve caused so much trouble. Alina, you have to do everything
in moderation:
Instead of caring where she had been, Mrs. Collins blamed her for the trouble she caused to the Collins family?
Well, this Collins family was really cold.
About half of Caleb’s indifference stemed from his own mother.
Alina, with little expression on her face, said lightly, “The impact on the Collins family all stems from my relationship with Caleb, and rest assured, we will soon be okay”
The words fell, only to see Mrs. Collins serious expression because of this sentence changed.
“You’re divorcing Caleb?”
“| think that’s what you would like to see”
“You… Mrs. Collins had anger in her tone.
Alina bent very respectfully.
Before Vanessa could say anything else, she said, “Mrs. Collins, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go see Max:
After saying that, she turned around and left.
She was no longer as pleasant to Vanessa as she was then.
It was fine when she was not married to Caleb, but after she got married, Mrs. Collins always felt that she was not good enough for his son.
Who can tolerate this kind of mother-in-law?
The old Collins lives in the middle of Collins Castle, which is also the largest main building.
Jonah, the old Collins’ butler, was waiting at the door, and when he saw Alina appear, he came up respectfully and gently, “Mrs. Collins, you’re finally here, Master Max has been waiting for you’
“Jonah *
“Yes?”
“How’s Grandpa?”
At this moment, Alina was not as nervous as she was when she faced Mrs. Collins.
Hearing her ask about the old Collins, Jonah beside her got red eyes, “Max is fine, but quite worried about you over the years. He does not believe that you have gone, so always let people look for
you.”
Unfortunately, there has been no news.
In that car accident, Alina left in such a hurry, but she didn’t know that there were so many people behind her who were worried about her.
Caleb didn’t believe she was dead and had searched for her for years, she had been indifferent abroad, but after hearing Grandpa Max’s concerns, her throat was stiff.
From a distance, she saw the old Collins, with gray hair, sitting in the middle of the living room.
Only the first glimpse of the old Collins, Alina cried, the old Collins saw her, trembling, put down the tea in his hand.
“Alina?” The old voice made Alina instantly run up and sit on her knees in front of the old Collins, her head resting on the old Collins’ lap, “Grandpa: This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“It’s really you.”
“It’s me, Grandpa.’ Alina’s heart ached slightly.
This moment was just like when she had nothing and was picked up by Grandpa Max to Collins Castle, she also relied on him in this way.
“It’s good to be back, it’s good to be back’ the old Collins stroked her hair dotingly.
The old Collins’ hand, as if with a soothing effect, soothed Alina’s heart, which was riddled with holes in the abyss.
Jonah looked at the image in front of him with emotion.
He said, “Lady Alina, it’s good that you’re back, you don’t know how Max has come through all these years.’
Every night, the old Collins sat by the window, just thinking about when Alina would be back.
Alina, “I’m sorry, Grandpa’
“I’m the one who’s sorry, | failed your grandmother’s wish, Caleb..” speaking of Caleb , the old Collins had a heartache.
Caleb was banned from Collins Castle for the three years that Alina was away.
Back then, if it were not for the fact that he was very sick and felt that he did not have long to live, and he was worried about this girl, she felt that his family could always take care of her.
So he asked Caleb to marry her, but this marriage brought Alina so much misfortune.
“Grandpa, it’s my fault.” Alina’s eyes were wet.
At the moment even if it is pillowed on the old Collins’ lap, she can feel his trembling, and the image of putting down the tea just now.
It was evident that the old Collins had been in poor health over the years.
“As long as you live well. the old Collins said sentimentally.
This was Caleb’s grandfather.
However, because of Alina’’s grandmother, the two seem to be closer, and since Alina came to the Collins family, she had been favored by the old Collins.
This also made the Collins jealous, and was explicitly and implicitly displeased with Alina.
On the AIG, Caleb had a morning meeting.
When he came out, Tomas was already waiting there apprehensively.
“What’s wrong?” Caleb clearly sensed that something was wrong with Tomas.
“Miss Hughes has been called to Collins Castle and there’s no telling if anything will happen”
At that, Caleb tensed up, naturally concerned.
After all, there were few people over at Collins Castle who like Alina, especially his mother.
At this moment, Caleb just felt annoyed.
Looking at the time on his watch, he said “All trips are pushed back’
“Yes, but you have to spend the evening with Miss Bell’
Before Tomas could finish his sentence, he received a look from Caleb and swallowed the words that were on his lips.
Caleb simply arranged his work and hurried to Collins Castle.
When he arrived, the maids were already preparing dinner in an orderly manner.
It’d been three years since he was finally able to come back again, even at Christmas these past few years.
Vanessa saw Caleb and her tone was cold and serious, “What are you doing back here?”
Caleb remained silent.
These years he has not been able to come back to Collins Castle, not only because of the old Collins, but also his mother.
She usually didn’t show any liking for Alina, yet Alina left, and the people who usually treated Alina badly were dealt with by her.
At the same time, Alina was coming down the stairs with the old Collins.
She was surprised to see Caleb standing downstairs. Hadn’t he been back to Collins Castle for three years?
A roar was heard, “What are you doing back? Get out of here”
Alina bit her lip.
Caleb was speechless.
