Chapter 206 I Don’t Need Gifts
“Tell you the truth? Who are you to say so?” Kieran asked, amused.
Terrence’s eyes were dark. When he faced Kieran, he always showed undisguised cruelty.
“Do you think I don’t know why you used Alexa?”
Even though Terrence was right, Kieran still confronted him calmly with a straight face.
“She agreed to the wedding.” Kieran secretly rubbed the wedding ring on his finger. “You don’t admit it?
Huh,
who do you think you are?”
Terrence stared at Kieran composedly, completely unaffected by his words.
On the negotiation table, Terrence was forever the winner.
“The Powell Group received 8 million dollars three days ago. Who gave it?”
Terrence slowly revealed a sneer, his eyes deep and cold.
“I don’t care what method you used. In short, the internal operations of the Powell Group have nothing
to do
with you.”
“Alexa is my woman, so this matter is related to me,” Terrence said icily. “If I’m not wrong, there should
be more money.”
“I said…”
“Keyon is secretly running companies in several countries. Alexa must not know that her good brother
sold.
her.”
“What do you know?”
Kieran suddenly got up, and his flawless expression disappeared.
“If you talk nonsense in front of her, you will only harm her!”
“You worry too much.” Terrence looked up at him frostily. “I have enough ability to protect her.”
“Ha, do you know that the person she hates the most is you?” Kieran sneered.
Half of Terrence’s face was hidden in the darkness, and the vibe around him silently worsened,
immediately making the atmosphere tense.
“I might as well tell you. The person who chased you that day was sent by Keyon.”
After saying that, Kieran turned around and left nonchalantly.
Terrence sat alone at the table, the protruding blue veins on his forehead looming.
He was furious and rushed out of the door, but he was stopped by Brenton, who came with a bunch of
people.
The bodyguards on both sides were instantly at loggerheads and could start a fierce battle at any time.
Terrence glanced at Brenton casually and did not take Brenton seriously at all.
Brenton was dressed in a light gray suit, and his right hand was wrapped in heavy plaster.
“Terrence, I knew you were here!”
Brenton growled and glared at Terrence with hatred in his eyes.
“Where’s Alexa? Give me back Alexa!”
Terrence’s eyes immediately darkened. He was like an iceberg standing in front of Brenton.
“She is in poor health and can’t stand your torment. Come at me!”
Hearing Brenton’s words, Terrence instantly reacted.
He grabbed Brenton’s collar without hesitation and gritted his teeth with a terrible expression.
“What do you know? What did Kieran say to you?”
Brenton was stunned and suddenly smiled sinisterly.
“Terrence, what are you pretending for? You tied her to your side. How can you not know?”
“Say it!”
Terrence’s action was violent. He pulled Brenton’s wound, but Brenton acted as if he did not sense any
pain
and fearlessly met Terrence’s gaze.
“If you kill her, I will make you pay with your life.”
“You are all lying to me, aren’t you?”
Terrence pushed him away ruthlessly.
He walked to the garage in a huff.
This time, he completely could not control the anger in his heart. He stepped on the accelerator to the
end
and headed straight for Duckdale Villa.
It was already dawn. Terrence looked at the time. It was half past five. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
When the car drove to the road in front of Duckdale Villa, Terrence subconsciously slowed down and
quietly
drove into the garage.
The servants in the kitchen had already started working and were processing today’s ingredients.
Hilary happily carried a gift bag upstairs. When she saw Terrence, she stopped in surprise.
“Mr. Ramsey, you are back.”
“What is this?”
Hilary was stunned and immediately explained, “This is a gift brought by Edwin just now. He said that
you
had bought a gift for Mrs. Ramsey.”
Terrence thought about it and immediately understood.
It must be that old lady who told Edwin to do so.
“Mr. Ramsey,” Hilary smiled meaningfully. “Are you taking it to Mrs. Ramsey?”
When he met Hilary’s expectant gaze, Terrence did not refuse.
He took the bag and briskly went upstairs, his anger disappearing without a trace.
Thinking that Alexa might be sleeping now, Terrence directly pushed open the door and entered the
room. He did not expect to see Alexa trying on the dress in front of the dressing mirror.
She turned pale and exclaimed, “Ah! Terrence? Why are you here?”
Terrence completely ignored her panic, his gentle eyes admiring her beauty.
Alexa wore a maroon dress. She was slender, and she looked even more beautiful and tender now.
“This dress is nice.” Terrence praised her. “It suits your temperament very well.”
Alexa stood in front of him cautiously, unable to avoid him as if her feet were filled with lead.
“Don’t look anymore. I’m not wearing this. I’m going to change it now,” Alexa said a little shyly.
Thinking of the clothes that she had been wearing for several years, Terrence immediately held Alexa’s
hand.
“No,” he said in a gentle tone. “Are you leaving these beautiful clothes for me if
you
don’t wear them?”
“Don’t mess around.”
Alexa’s little face immediately turned red.
Terrence pulled her over and personally adjusted her belt.
“Don’t tie it so tightly,” Terrence mumbled, standing behind her. “Do you think you are still a little girl?”
Alexa felt ashamed at once, flushing.
Terrence gently placed his palms on her waist and moved them to her round belly.
As he recalled David’s words yesterday, Terrence’s eyes flickered.
Alexa froze
Terrence put his hands on her belly, and his intense eyes were filled with softness and surprise.
In Alexa’s body, there was a baby.
“It’s already so big…”
He muttered to himself. Alexa lowered her head in his arms and murmured.
“Today, it is five months old.”
“Time really flies.” Terrence was somewhat lost in thought.
By the time he reacted, Alexa had already left his embrace and was sitting in front of the dressing table,
combing her hair.
“A gift for you.”
Terrence went forward and handed her the gift bag.
Alexa took it and put it aside as if she was not very interested in what was inside.
“Aren’t you going to open it?”
“You have already given me a lot of gifts. Thank you,” Alexa said indifferently.
Even so, she did not wear the jewelry he had given her.
She only wore her mother’s emerald bangle.
“You don’t like it?” Terrence immediately asked. “I’ll get someone to buy another gift.”
Alexa paused and shook her head slightly.
“No need. I don’t need any gifts.”
