Chapter 757 The Cheapest Affection
Chester smoked a packet of cigarettes, his inner boredom was still hard to hide, and the moment
Romeo pushed the door open and entered, he was almost smoked out by the strong smell of smoke.
Romeo frowned, "You want to see me, brother?"
"Yes."
Chester pushed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, "Keep an eye on your sister-in-law's matter
personally."
Sister-in-law? Alina?
Romeo wrinkled his brow as he looked at Chester.
After their first separation, Romeo was not in favour of them having another destiny, especially since
Alina had been married to Caleb.
Although she couldn't be blamed for that incident from start to finish, for the moment, Chester had only
just returned to the Spinster family, which was even more complicated internally than the Ajax family.
"Miss Ajax is her sister, and under the shelter of Miss Ajax, she will surely be safe." Romeo said in a
cold and sullen tone.
Chester's gaze towards him was darker.
"You seem to have forgotten that the cheapest thing in the Ajax family is kinship." So what if they are
sisters by blood?
Romeo met Chester's gloomy gaze with a chill down his back.
Without waiting for him to speak, Chester continued, "Have you forgotten how Carson Ajax died?"
H was blown to bits in that vast change of power in the Ajax family.
The power change, however, was personally stirred up by Sienna, and many people were destroyed in
that battle, both in the side branches and in the direct line.
And at the young age of sixteen, Sienna sat in the position of heir with absolute control.
Fewer families had been lost on that one road of fishy bloodshed.
What was a sister to her?
"But big brother...", "Go." Before Romeo could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chester.
Romeo's brow knitted.
Looking into Chester's cold and sharp eyes, his back unconsciously broke out in layers of fine sweat at
this moment.
In all the years, he had never seen Chester have that kind of sharp eyes.
"Romeo, you think of us that way too?"
He and Alina had a bumpy road ahead and Romeo was always by his side.
He couldn't have been more aware of what happened back then, but at this point, his hesitation was a
questioning of them.
"Then why did you do that to her?" At this moment Romeo asked the most intuitive question in his
mind.
Alina suffered the pain in the guardianship of her families, knowing that the man that night was Caleb.
No one knew what kind of pain he was in during that time, and Romeo saw it clearly.
He suffered to the point of self-harm.
If he loved her so much, then afterwards, after Vanessa's death, why did he take revenge on her in that
way?
And at this moment, when Romeo asked why he had treated Alina that way at that time, under
Chester's eyes was an unprecedented pain.
"Edison is not just son of grandpa."
Wass there something more complicated inside this?
Edison, a man of great depth and maliciousness, used to destroy all at the cost of all time.
What they knew before was complicated enough and made it clear to them what kind of peoson Edison
was.
And now, listening to Chester's words, probably things were more complicated than what they saw.
"What else?" Romeo looked intensely at Chester, his heart already in his throat. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
A bitter smile lifted the corners of Chester's mouth.
"She's the person in the world I'd never want to hurt." Yes, he's been alone through thick and thin,
waiting for her, missing her, protecting her at all costs, even if they end up hurting each other.
He was not at ease with the Ajax family, yet it was a twist of new hope for her.
Chester looked at Romeo, the sadness under his eyes was completely covered by sharpness, "So you
all believed that in Ingford, that was revenge on her?"
Romeo, "..."
Was that not?
During that time, not to mention Caleb's anger, even Romeo, who prided himself on knowing Chester
best, was puzzled.
After all, all those years, even though he was in Eglinton, he knew everything about Ingford.
Rather than keeping an eye on Ingford, Alina was there.
After getting to know that she was used by Caleb to save Emma and forced to jump into the Hasnan
River, he immediately rushed back and squatted by the Hasnan River for two months.
Why did he change in the end?
"He's the son of Asher Spinster's daughter."
Romeo felt his brain go blank.
The grandson of the deceased Asher Spinster? At this moment Romeo instantly understood the so-
called Ingford Incident.
His fierceness stirred up everyone to protect her, thus delaying her until the death of Asher Spinster.
The timing was just right before and after.
"Does she know?" Romeo's tone was tight as he asked the question.
Many people scolded Chester during that time, the whole Lawson family could not stand it, even Caleb
was angry with him.
It was a chaotic time.
All thought that Chester was crazy, so many years of relationship to collapse overnight, but now...
Romeo regretted asking the question.
Because after that, there was no more normal communication between Alina and Chester, she hated
him and used all her strength to stay away from him.
"Then tell Alina, so that everything is solved." Romeo was a straightforward person and thought of the
problem in a simpler way.
Perhaps this would have been a better way if it hadn't been for the Ajax family.
But now he had to rejoin the Spinster family because the Ajax family had intervened, and now
everything was in chaos.
Between him and Alina, it was no longer as simple as explaining the past.
"Go and find out what kind of things Sienna has her handling now." Chester ignored Romeo's question.
And Romeo did not object much more and nodded, "Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
When Romeo went out and Chester was left alone, he took a cigarette out and lit it up.
He really wished that it would be easier between him and Alina.
His phone vibrated, Chester looked at the number on the screen, his eyes were instantly gloomy and
he hung up.
