Chapter 41 Mr. Ramsey Returns
Alexa calmly picked up the documents on the ground and took a look. It wasn’t done by her, but the person in charge signed her name.
Now that Alexa was a newcomer, she had no right to defend herself even if she was set up.
“Can I change it right now?”
“Just do it here.”
Terrence pointed at the table and sent Edwin away with a glance.
Now Terrence and Alexa were alone in the huge office, and he stared at her more and more meaningfully
However, Alexa ignored him and focused on her work. She seriously corrected the mistakes in the documents.
Not long after, Edwin brought in Terrence’s dinner.
Alexa still sat on the sofa to modify the documents and was indifferent.
Terrence did not care about her and asked Edwin to put the plate on the coffee table. Terrence strode over and sat directly beside Alexa.
Alexa tilted her head slightly and glanced at Terrence from the corner of her eye.
“Go on,” Terrence said.
Alexa had indeed continued, and Terrence was a little upset. He took a bite of food.
Alexa didn’t eat well that day, and she was starving. But she had just taken the medicine, and she had no appetite at all.
Terrence ate elegantly as he paid attention to Alexa’s work.
Terrence sat next to her, while Alexa was a little absent-minded. But at that moment, Terrence suddenly opened his mouth.
“Aren’t there only a few mistakes? Why did you correct them for so long?”
“I…” Alexa said guiltily. “It’s almost done.”
“Didn’t Keyon teach you these things when you were in the Duran’s house?”
Hearing him say Keyon’s name, Alexa felt as if her heart skipped a beat.
Alexa’s family was her weakness, but now … she only had her brother.
Alexa could suffer for the Duran family, but she would not allow others to insult her family.
“Terrence, please don’t mention my brother,” Alexa said coldly. She tried to be strong.
“What? I can’t bring him up?” Terrence sneered. “Logically speaking, I’m his brother-in-law. We are a family.”
“No.” Alexa said stubbornly, “It won’t be that case very soon.”
Hearing her say so word by word, Terrence was instantly pissed off. He stood up in anger.
“Alexa. Try to say it again?” Terrence’s tone was cold. “Have I saved your face?”
Alexa sat blankly in place, unable to say a word.
“If I hear those words again, I promise you will never see Keyon.”
Terrence ruthlessly warned her, not saving her any face at all.
Alexa found that she was really weak. Other than shedding tears, she could do nothing.
“Terrence.” Alexa felt very hurt, but she held back her tears and calmly said, “Many people around you love you and care about you, but I… Other than my brother, I have nothing else.”
Terrence wore a gloomy expression and suddenly saw her tearful eyes. At that moment, he felt disturbed.
The person in front of Terrence was Alexa… She used to be the most precious of the Duran Group,
but now she was very humble in front of him.
However, Alexa would never beg Terrence.
“Alexa, good for you,” Terrence said through his teeth.
After that, Terrence picked up his coat, slammed the door, and left.
Alexa stayed alone in the president’s office and burst into tears regardless of anything.
She cried out loud, but she still felt bitter.
The phone rang. Alexa guessed who it was and immediately kept calm to answer the phone.
Kieran explained the results of the report to her, but Alexa could not listen at all. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Dr. Powell,” She interrupted Kieran.
“Huh?”
“Are you still in the hospital?” Alexa said weakly, “I feel a little uncomfortable.”
“Yes, I’m.”
“Alright, I’ll be right there.”
After the call ended. Kieran immediately rejected the dinner with Clara and turned around to go to the hospital.
After Alexa came to the hospital, Kieran got her a body check.
After half an hour, there was finally a result.
“Keep in a good mood. Don’t get emotional.”
Kieran told Alexa seriously and clearly saw her teary eyes.
“In fact, I suggest that you stay in the hospital. In all aspects, the treatment will be much better.”
Alexa shook her head and was very grateful to Kieran.
“Thank you, Dr. Powell.” Alexa said helplessly, “My condition is a little complicated, but I will deal with it soon. After that, I’ll focus on treatment.”
“Yes.” Kieran nodded and suddenly remembered. “By the way, it’s very late. Is it convenient for you to go back? Why don’t I drive you?”
Alexa did not want to go back, but she agreed to Kieran for no reason.
“Alright, wait a moment,” Kieran replied gently.
He took off his white coat.
Kieran was dressed in a dark blue suit, and he looked calm and mature against that suit.
Alexa had seen many men in suits, but she rarely saw someone as gentle as Kieran.
After knowing each other for so long, they had become much more familiar, and they were no longer as restrained as before.
Alexa naturally followed Kieran into the car and suddenly felt she was a little hungry.
“Have you had dinner, Dr. Powell?”
“Not yet.”
“Shall we grab a bite together?” Alexa smiled. “I’ll buy you dinner.”
Kieran smiled gently and asked, “What do you want?”
“There’s a small restaurant in the east of the city. Have you been there!”.
The moment Alexa finished speaking, she immediately regretted it.
How could someone like Kieran go to that small restaurant to eat?
“No, I haven’t.” Kieran replied, “But I can give it a try.”
“Alright.” Alexa said in relief, “You will definitely be satisfied.”
Just as Alexa happily talked to Kieran, he suddenly made an emergency stop.
It was not because of the red light in front, but because the car next to him stopped and almost hit the front of Kieran’s car.
Kieran’s face suddenly turned a little gloomy. He pressed down the window silently, and Alexa followed his gaze.
With just a glance, Alexa was shocked.
Didn’t Terrence leave?
Terrence placed a hand on the car window and stared daggers at Alexa.
After a moment of silence, Terrence’s face grew gloomier.
“Do you want to come over yourself, or do you want me to pick you up?”
There were only twenty or so seconds left before the light turned green. Given Terrence’s personality, if Alexa didn’t do as he said, the consequences would be terrifying.
Alexa felt her face burning hot. In front of Kieran, she lost her self-esteem.
“I am sorry, Dr. Powell.” Alexa looked at Kieran apologetically. “I might have to go first…”
“It doesn’t matter.” Kieran looked at her gently. “If you need help, you can call me anytime.”
