Chapter 154 I’m Sitting Right Here
“You are awesome.” Alexa chuckled stiffly.
“Let’s go.”
Terrence grabbed Alexa by the wrist and pulled her into the car as if Alexa was a criminal.
The dark car window isolated Alexa from the bustling life on the street. Alexa looked out of the window with a hint of reluctance in her eyes, and her body was as cold as ice.
Terrence loosened his tie irritably, pinched Alexa on the face with his calloused fingers, and made
Alexa face him.
“I’m sitting right here, but you are still distracted!” Terrence whispered unhappily. “What are your thinking about? That man just now?”
“No.”
Terrence snorted with doubt and then sneered coldly. “You will miss every man you meet, won’t you?”
Alexa didn’t refute. With a pale face, she was confined in Terrence’s arms like a dead fish.
Terrence suddenly lost interest in Alexa. He pushed Alexa away, took out a handkerchief, and wiped.
his palms.
“You didn’t make any progress,” Terrence arrogantly and indifferently commented.
Soon, Terrence straightened his clothes and looked like a gentleman again.
“You are right.” This sentence was self-mocking and metaphorical. Alexa forced a smile.
After Alexa combed her ruffled hair, the driver stopped the car in front of a French restaurant.
“Get out of the car for some food.”
“I’m not hungry.)
“I didn’t ask if you were hungry,” Terrence replied fiercely.
Alexa pursed her lips and then obediently followed Terrence into the restaurant.
Terrence was a VIP wherever he went. Alexa silently and humbly followed behind Terrence. Alexa’s situation was worse than that of a pet.
Alexa followed Terrence to sit at a long table. The waiter brought the menu. Alexa saw those terrifying prices and did not dare order a single dish.
“I want a glass of water, thank you.”
Terrence looked at the discreet Alexa and couldn’t help getting angry.
Terrence casually made a few marks on the menu. Soon, the waiter pushed a food cart over and. placed various dishes in front of Alexa.
“I didn’t order these things…”
Terrence, who was cutting the steak, shot a warning glance at Alexa. Intimidated, Alexa swallowed back the rest of her words.
“Just eat. Why do you keep talking nonsense?” Terrence muttered.
Then, he focused on the food on his plate.
Alexa hesitated for a long time before reluctantly eating a strawberry.
“Are you a child? Do you want me to feed you?” Terrence suddenly asked.
Alexa shuddered in fear.
“No.” She answered honestly.
I loved to stay around Terrence, but now I just want to escape. Alexa thought.
Terrence brought Alexa a strong sense of oppression like an iceberg. Alexa was tense in fear that
she would infuriate Terrence again.
“I have a bad stomach. I can’t eat too much at night.”
“Take half a bowl of congee.” Terrence’s voice was calm. “I’ll tell you something later.”
“What is it?”
“Take the congee first.”
Terrence felt frustrated and thought, Alexa is indeed a child.
Alexa obediently finished half a bowl of congee as requested. There was curiosity on her face.
Terrence slightly shook his goblet.
Then, he said indifferently, “What I can tell you is that Keyon is still alive.”
Alexa was stunned at first and then could not help but cry with joy.
“I knew it. I just knew that he would survive.”
“The last place where he appeared was Boston. I haven’t gotten the details yet.”
Then, Terrence closed the car window, and the expensive Maybach drove away along the coastal road. Silence pervaded again.
Alexa walked to the villa, and her lonely shadow stretched on the sand because of the light.
The past 23 years were like a dream for Alexa.
Alexa recalled her past life with her family, and a gentle smile appeared on her little face.
Gradually, her head ached.
There seemed to be a checkpoint that prevented Alexa from searching for the old memories.
Alexa felt a chill down her spine and then quickened her pace to the villa.
Perhaps I am too tired. Alexa thought.
In the bathtub, Alexa held her forehead in distress. Then, she soaked her whole body in the hot
water.
Alexa could not help but think of the past after calming down.
No matter how hard Alexa tried, there was always something weird in her mind.
It seems I have lived in another city for a long time before coming to New York. Alexa thought.
Instantly, Alexa felt a faint pain in her head again. She quickly collected her thoughts and went back
to her room tiredly.
“Mrs. Ramsey, Mrs. Ramsey?”
Yareli Benton boldly pushed the woman onto the bed and finally woke her up.
“What’s wrong?” Alexa said.
“The stylists Mr. Ramsey sent are here. They are waiting for you downstairs.”
Instantly, Alexa forced herself to sit up.
“What time is it now?”
“It’s six in the afternoon.” Yareli frowned with concern. “Mr. Ramsey will come to pick you up in one hour.”
“Sorry, sorry, I overslept.”
