Chapter 4 Hot Research
The atmosphere in the small space was breathtaking.
The sound of a lighter rang out, followed by the strong smell of tobacco, Alina frowned, but did not say
anything.
She sat up and straightened her clothes that had been messed up by the man.
Caleb just stared at her, "You're happy that you're deliberately irritating me?"
Alina's hands fiddled with her clothes, but quickly regained her composure.
She didn't answer him, she just said, "Give me that information, and delete the backup."
It's about the information Tomas showed her earlier.
She never thought that in a short period of time, Caleb had such a big hold on Andre.
As the words fell, the atmosphere in the car became even more uncomfortable.
"You're worried about him."
His tone was tinged with certainty. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Alina didn't answer, but didn't retort.
When she didn't say anything, Caleb became even more angry, "Draw up a divorce agreement with
him right away."
He kept his hand on his cigarette while his other hand casually cupped her face, "And don't you always
try to provoke me, you may not be able to afford it if you piss me off."
Damn man, he threatened her.
The anger Alina had just suppressed could not be controlled again, and she pushed away the hand
cupping her cheek, "What do you mean?"
Caleb looked at her with frightening eyes.
Alina was clearly no match for him, and she avoided his eyes.
He said, "You didn't see the news?"
News?
At this moment, Alina thought of the news Andre had just told her on the phone.
Is there something important that happened? She wanted to check her phone, however, her phone has
just dropped in the car.
His phone was handed to her and Alina took it.
When she opened the webpage, it was full of popular news about yesterday's show.
"Master Caleb's wife who has been missing for three years shows up at Master Caleb's fiancee show,
'Beginning' work becomes the main character."
"Missing Master Caleb's wife vs Master Caleb's fiancee."
"Missing Master Caleb's wife returns, where does Master Caleb's fiancee Miss Emma go?"
"Master Caleb's wife is amazingly talented." and a host of others dominate the Hot Topic homepage.
Three years ago Alina far abroad naturally knew what happened in Ingford because of her
disappearance.
Therefore, she suddenly appeared yesterday, alarmed the major media in Ingford, and in the past three
years, everyone was concerned about her life.
If it wasn't for her grandmother, she probably wouldn't have set foot in Ingford in her lifetime.
The phone in his hand suddenly vibrated and the phone alerted 'Emma '.
Not waiting for her reaction, the phone in her hand was jerked away by the man, he then hung up.
Alina's tone was suppressed with great anger, "Why don't you answer?"
Her sudden appearance yesterday caught everyone off guard and shocked Caleb. The most aggrieved
person at his side was probably Emma.
The man didn't answer, but said, "Now you know what to do?"
"It's just the news." Alina's tone was muted.
During these three years, there have been many reports about Joslan Hughes, both positive and
negative, but she has never responded.
"So how long do you think you and Andre would go in prison if I were to sue you now for unlawful
cohabitation within marriage?"
At these words, Alina looked at the man in front of her, and the phrase 'within marriage' made her even
more indifferent.
"I sent you divorce papers back then, you..."
"I don't sign anything that anyone sends me, if that were the case, wouldn't the Collins Group be gone
already?"
The two stared at each other, not giving in to each other.
The driver and Tomas in front of them were in cold sweat.
They both thought Alina would be convinced by Caleb, but she retorted sharply, "So how long do you
think you and her will be in prison if I sue you being engaged to another woman within the marriage?"
She suddenly smiled, charming and moving, "Oh, by the way, you two are engaged only, and not
licensed, do not have to be legally responsible."
"But it is the network era, when the third party does such a shameless and unethical thing, I'm afraid
that public opinion will also make her lose her reputation."
"And the Collins Group's reputation is damaged, and I count the damage, well, a few billion?"
Alina didn't know how she got out of Caleb's car. The sun was beating down on her and she didn't feel
a bit of warmth.
Caleb's eyes kept flashing in her mind, and the Andre-related handle he was holding, and she was
cold.
A pagani braked sharply in front of her, and Alina subconsciously backed up.
Emma got out of the car in a custom-made dress and took off her sunglasses, "Alina, let's talk."
Alina subconsciously clenched her hands into fists, "I have nothing to talk to you about." With that, she
turned around and walked to the side.
He had just taken two steps when he heard Emma's tone of displeasure, "You chose yesterday to show
up, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Yesterday was such a special day for her.
It took Caleb an outrageous amount of money to get together with the organizers to be able to give her
a show on an international stage.
It was an important show for Emma's entry into the international design world, but it was overshadowed
by Alina's 'Beginning'.
The whole of Ingford is now full of stories about them, and it's clear who's messing up.
Emma didn't believe it wasn't intentional on Alina's part.
Alina turned back, her eyes cold and condescending, "Didn't you take so many of my results on
purpose?"
At the end of the sentence, Emma's face turned white instantly, and she knew it.
Looking at Emma's white face, Alina said nothing more and added at the moment she turned around,
"If you were really capable, how could you be ruined by one of my works?"
"Alina , you shouldn't have come back."
Alina's mouth lifted in mockery.
Andre's car came over, Alina pulled open the door, and said to Emma behind her, "Everything that
belongs to me, I will get it back, but that man..." Alina paused, smiling, "Since you like the man I don't
want so much, I will give him to you." After saying that, she went straight to the car.
Emma stood in place, hands clenched in fists, nails cut palms do not feel the slightest pain.
Since she was a child, Alina was always so high and mighty in front of her.
Alina's last words resounded in her mind, making her feel a strong sense of humiliation, she hated
Alina.
In the car, Andre hands a bottle of water to Alina, "Caleb got you before she came?"
"Yes."
"What does he want with you at this time of day?"
"Let me divorce you."
Andre’s face changed.
It just occurred to him that Alina said that last night to get rid of Caleb.
Other times in can be a joke, but in yesterday's occasion, there are reporters and media everywhere,
especially the Ingford media is more sophisticated, there may be people who will use this incident to
make a big deal.
"Aren't you afraid that our relationship will be found because of this incident?"
Alina’s face stiffened, the original relaxed expression was now full of gloom.
Andre reached out and rubbed the top of her soft hair, "You are always not calm when you meet him."
"If you knew how I was forced by him three years ago, you would also know why I couldn't be calm."
What has she seen in those three years?
But Caleb's methods and practices are outrageous.
She was more than nine months pregnant and about to give birth, and he wanted to kill their child for a
third party.
Alina's body trembled uncontrollably as she recalled the scene.
When talking about three years ago, Andre's face also changed, for he knew what happened three
years ago.
It was because of this knowledge that he opposed Alina's return to Ingford.
He held Alina's hand, "Don't be afraid, I'm here with you."
