Chapter 43 The war between mother and son
Chapter 43 The war between mother and son
At the banquet.
There are quite a lot of noble gentry coming to such a party, and usually the organizers invite some
prestigious people to come.
It goes without saying that the Collins' status at Ingford is even more impressive, and the cover about
Joslan Hughes would be competing in the Oklens had just released.
While the public outcry about Emma is clearing up.
Within two hours, Mrs. Collins showed up at a charity party with Alina and the public was once again
abuzz.
Emma has not only failed to make herself look better, but now the public opinion is even harder to hear.
Of course, Caleb, who is now taking Emma to the party, is completely unaware of this.
Mrs. Collins blackened her face when she learned that Caleb had brought Emma along.
No one would have thought that Vanessa and Caleb would have fought first.
The reason for this was that Emma had spotted a set of jewels, and Caleb was going to buy it for her.
And after Caleb raised his bid, no one would have dared to raise the price under normal circumstances,
but Vanessa raised her hand.
"Madam." Alina had a headache and looked at Vanessa with a puzzled look .
The people in the room, who saw Vanessa and Caleb bidding against each other at this time, all got
nervous.
Alina just wants to get out, the atmosphere here is too scary.
Caleb's face was hard to read.
"Caleb, forget it, I'm fine without this." Emma said generously at this point.
In fact, since Mrs. Collins has stepped in to bid, Caleb, as the son, naturally cannot continue.
There were no surprises and Mrs. Collins managed to get it.
She said graciously, "Just take the stuff directly to Mulherd Manor to Alina."
It was obvious to everyone there that Caleb had taken such an expensive piece of jewelry to give to
Emma.
Now Mrs. Collins took it to her ex-daughter-in-law.
This scene is even better than the TV show.
"Ma'am, that's not very good."
"What's not good about it? Since I gave it to you, you take it." Vanessa sounded firm.
It seems she's really pissed off, and Alina doesn't say anything.
Now that he had lost the jewels, Caleb was sort of laying low a bit.
So he wanted to take a picture of this not-so-impressive painting and give it to Emma.
Yet when he called for a bid, Alina stepped in again.
Alina clearly felt that even from that distance, the man's eyes were filled with a dangerous killing intent.
She averted her gaze as if she hadn't seen it.
Emma is really aggravated by the fact that she didn't get the jewelry just now, and now Alina wants to
steal it from her.
"Caleb, she..."
She couldn't bid with Mrs. Collins just now, and she was already angry with Caleb, and now she was
bidding against Alina.
A painting that started at only 10,000, a very ordinary painting, was bid up to 500,000 by Alina and
Caleb.
And the two apparently had to continue bidding.
Those who were present thought that the battle was really exciting.
It was Mrs. Collins who stepped in and bought it to Alina.
And to the untrained eye, today was the day Alina and Mrs. Collins joined forces to get Caleb in
trouble.
Because Mrs. Collins took everything that Caleb or Emma wanted and gave it to Alina.
Alina just wanted the painting, so she was actually embarrassed, but it was hard to explain.
On the way out, Alina elegantly left with Mrs. Collins on her arm.
And Caleb, who was originally with Emma, stood nervously in front of the phantom.
And Mrs. Collins, who was so aggressive just now, patted Alina on the back of her hand when she saw
Caleb, "I'll have the stuff sent to Mulherd Manor."
After saying that, she walked away, leaving Alina alone.
Alina didn't want to confront him and pretended to leave, but she didn't expect a force on her wrist, "Let
go of me."
"Happy?" Caleb understands that everything today is a trick of Alina's mind.
While acting like it doesn't matter to divorce him,she came to get back at him.
Alina looked back at the man with dangerous eyes, "Yes, I'm happy."
"You admit it?"
"I was happy to see her get beaten up like that by your mother." Although that scene just now was
embarrassing, but when she thought back on it, it really was extremely comfortable inside.
It it were anyone else, Caleb would probably have used tricks to forcefully threaten them, as he did with
her and Andre.
"You must be very annoyed, right?" Seeing that the man was too angry to speak, Alina laughed softly.
Caleb, "......"
"Tonight is a special party for her, right? Now, the beauty is even more aggravated." Caleb squeezed
her wrist with a heavier grip.
Alina, "You're hurting me."
The man let go of her.
Alina laughed softly and the moment she turned around, she heard Caleb say, "If you don't want to
divorce me, just say so, no need for all this."
Not wanting a divorce, that's what Caleb guessed about Alina.
Otherwise, why would she have come here tonight? What's more, she brought Mrs. Collins with her.
This woman's heart is really too deep.
Mrs. Collins least likes her, yet she is capable of pestering to come together, and he did not know what
means are used.
Alina looked back at him, "You think you're God, I'm begging you to take the time to divorce me
tomorrow, okay?"
Originally, she wanted to wait until the Oklens competition came back to deal with it, but right now, she
felt creeped out by watching this man be so cocky.
"Alina."
"I'll be waiting for you in the morning, what time do you finish and what time do you come, I'll wait for
you." This is considered sincere, right?
She didn’t know where hiS illusion came from that she didn't want a divorce.
Looking at Alina's dashing back, Caleb stood still, his face unpredictable.
Alina had just reached the car, and Emma came out from the shadows and raised her hand to slap
Alina across the face. But Alina dodged her attacked and kicked at Emma’ leg.
Emma grimaced in pain.
