I'm Richer Than My Billionaire ex-husband

Chapter 865 Like a child

When Caleb thought of the time when Alina was seriously ill, apart from Chester, it seemed that she had forgotten about Penny.

Right now the Spinster family has Romeo over there, so it's good to have Penny completely protected.

Right now, Sienna is so deep that no one knows exactly what she is up to. He will protect Alina from the Ajax family and keep her away.

And it's good that the Spinster family has Romeo at this time.

Just as Caleb was about to say something else, there was a loud noise from outside, Caleb and Tomas looked at each other, Tomas' heart fluttered, "I'll go and take a look." Having said that, Tomas turned to go out.

When he got back in no time, his face was grave, "Miss Hughes has disappeared."

Hearing this, Caleb trembled.

Lifting his steps, he headed outside, the entire castle was busy with servants going crazy, in fact what Caleb didn't know was that they had been so busy in the morning.

The butler saw Caleb coming out and hurried up to him, "Sir."

"What's going on?"

Caleb's face was grim.

Butler, "Still looking, I don't think Miss Hughes has left home."

Because he knew that Alina had a mental disorder, the butler had told everyone that Alina was not allowed to leave the house.

Even someone who had done something slightly wrong were dealt with by the butler.

Right now in this place for Alina, it is absolutely impossible to encounter any excitement or harm.

But it's because she's exactly mentally sane and this castle is so big that sometimes she hides in some corner without knowing. Caleb's face was dark, "Find her immediately."

Caleb is going crazy with anxiety.

The butler decided that when he found Alina, he would make sure to send ten men to keep a close eye on Alina.

By the time they found Alina, it was already an hour later.

She, again, hid in the pond.

The moment Caleb saw her hiding under the lotus leaf, he wanted to grab her and beat her up, but saw the fear in her eyes. His heart softened.

The moment he jumped into the pond, Alina subconsciously ducked back.

Caleb tried to be gentle and slowly stepped forward, "Good girl, the water is cold, let's go up, OK?"

Alina looked at him in a dumbfounded way.NôvelDrama.Org content.

Caleb's heart felt a gush of stinging pain.

She was such a proud person, why was she like this now? And who made her like this?

She was his wife, so why did she in such a mess after the divorce?

"Okay, Abby?"

The moment she heard the word 'Abby', her crystal eyes had a momentary flicker that Caleb could see clearly.

This is God's retribution for him, isn't it?

He almost killed her life and God used the rest of her life to punish him.

Heart aching and choking, he came to her and pulled her into his arms, "Abby, be good, let's go up."

The water in the pond is stagnant and cooler than normal, plus it is a lotus pond with silt all underneath.

So when Caleb fished Alina up, she was as good as a mudblood.

Looking at her, Caleb doted and was heartbroken.

The butler came over with the maids and got a collective headache when he saw Alina in this state.

"Hurry up and take Miss Hughes to wash up."

"Yes."

The maids respectfully stepped forward and were about to pull Alina.

However, Alina subconsciously hid behind Caleb, who frowned and swept his eyes at the maids who had come forward, saying, "You can go."

"Yes."

The maids nod their heads.

When Caleb turned around, he bumped into Alina's somewhat frightened eyes.

Even after living here for so long, she was, in fact, still not quite willing to get in touch with these people, and Caleb's eyes were more gentle and doting.

He said, "Shall I take you to wash?"

Alina shook her head.

There was a death grip on his shirt.

Caleb only felt his heart sore, "Then can you wash it yourself?"

Alina nodded her head.

She understood everything, but just shut herself off completely and didn't want any contact with the outside world.

Such a result was heartbreaking.

Caleb took her back to her bedroom, with the maids following behind in an urgent tidy-up.

Alina washed herself in the bathroom, yet when she came out, Caleb saw that she hadn't even washed the mud off her calves.

At that moment, he felt a headache.

Alina looked at him blearily and Caleb said, "Have two people come and clean her up."

At these words, Alina instantly looked at him in horror, Caleb obviously couldn't care less, it was just like raising a child.

Finally.

Alina was held down in the washroom by two maids to get clean, just as she had been in the morning, screaming and crying.

Caleb had a headache, he really wished Chester was alive, if he was alive, she would not lose all her pride.

He wanted her to be well.

When she came out of the bathroom, Alina was still crying.

Caleb stepped forward and coaxed, "Abby, be good, don't cry anymore, okay?"

The maids were terrified, afraid that Caleb would blame them, but in fact they didn't hurt her, it was just that Alina didn't like people touching her. Alina was crying hard, looking aggrieved.

Caleb hugged her and coaxed, "That person is about to be found, don't cry anymore, okay?"

The cries abruptly stopped.

When Caleb saw her instant silence upon hearing Chester, he was helpless, "What a heartless woman."

Alina rubbed against him in his arms, good and quiet.

Caleb thought that probably the only way to keep her quiet now was to talk about Chester.

Hard on his heart, but relieved.

In the afternoon.

The butler really did send ten men to watch Alina, afraid of losing her again.

Alina sat under a flower stand and ate with a biscuit.

When Caleb came out of the study, he heard the 'crunching' sound.

Seeing Alina's bulging face as she ate, he said somewhat helplessly, "No one is grabbing with you, eat slowly."

Alina just looked at him and fished out a biscuit from her pocket and handed it to him.

Caleb, "For me to eat?"

Alina did not say anything, just handed it to his mouth.

Everyone present was nervous, since Master Caleb had returned, they knew that Caleb did not eat sweets.

So it's been a long time since they've made dessert here, and this snack came from maid.

Although he dotes on Miss Hughes, he won't compromise, will he?

However, to everyone's amazement, Caleb grabbed her hand and ate the biscuit right out of it.

Alina looked at him quietly, as if asking with her eyes, is it delicious?

Caleb had a smile on his lips, "It's delicious, have Tomas buy you more."

Although he didn't know where exactly the biscuits came from, Caleb knew that the kitchen definitely didn't have this kind of packaging.

It was rare for her to come across something she had taken the initiative to eat, so Caleb naturally indulged her.
