Chapter 100 Become Part of the Powell Family
Bart had been resting at home since the surgery last month.
When Terrence angrily came to the Powell’s house, they happened to meet.
“Terrence? Is there something urgent I can help with?” Bart asked.
“It’s urgent, but I came looking for Kieran.”
Kieran was Bart’s eldest son. Terrence’s reply confused Bart even more.
Kieran devoted himself to the studies of medicine so much that he even refused to take
over the
company when he returned home. Bart wondered, how could he have time to see
Terrence, let alone upset him?
Terrence sat down in front of Bart with a cold expression and poured himself a cup of
coffee.
“Kieran spent quite a large sum. Haven’t you heard of that, Mr. Powell?”
Bart was sophisticated. When he heard Terrence’s angry words, he still maintained calm as
usual.
“Terrence, why don’t you just enlighten me? If anything is troubling you, we can talk.”
“Your son came to my place and took my wife away. How do you think this matter should
be handled, Mr. Powell?”
Terrence’s eyes were cold, and he gave a frightening sneer.
Bart’s face darkened. He instantly slapped the table and jumped to his feet.
“Ron, call Kieran back immediately!”
“Yes, Mr. Powell,” Ron Dunn said.
“For your sake, I will forgive him as long as he brings my wife back to me,” Terrence said
coldly. He was born with this overpowering aura, and now the atmosphere was very
tense.
Bart was livid as he called Kieran.
He had thought that Kieran was more mature than his siblings and already outgrew such
folly. Kieran brought disgrace to the family with this!
“What did you say? In the hospital?”
Terrence immediately stood up and left when he heard Bart snap.
“Damn it! You went too far!” Bart roared hysterically. Then he panted and gritted his teeth.

your ass back here right now!”
A few minutes later, Terrence stepped on the accelerator and sped down the mountain
road, gripping the steering wheel tightly, with his face livid.
He had sent people all over the city to look for Alexa, and Alexa was actually in the
hospital.
Terrence was so mad that he was getting out of control.
His Bugatti La Voiture Noire swooshed downtown and grabbed everyone’s attention.
Terrence’s sharp eyes spotted the incoming silver-gray Aston Martin.
When the two cars passed by each other in the middle of the intersection, Terrence shot
Kieran a
fierce glance, and in the blink of an eye, Terrence’s Bugatti turned away.
Kieran reacted quickly and turned to the side. A soul-stirring screech rang out, and the two
cars
pulled over in the middle of the intersection.
The traffic lights turned green, but none of the other cars moved.
Terrence pushed open the car door and got off to confront him. Kieran was not to be
outdone. He
calmly stood by the car and looked into Terrence’s eyes.
“Mr. Ramsey, if you don’t know the rules, I can teach you.”
Terrence gritted his teeth and grabbed Kieran by the collar.
“Kieran, you are risking your neck by doing this.”
“I’m not,” Kieran said.
Kieran looked at him calmly, as he held Terrence’s wrist.
Although Kieran looked like a refined and noble man, his strength was greater than many
strong men. Terrence did not have any physical advantage during the conflict.
“I took her away. You are a man. Come at me when you’re mad. Don’t hurt her,” Kieran
said word by word, looking at Terrence with disgust and disdain in his eyes.
“Mr. Powell, save this hypocritical talk for someone else.” Terrence narrowed his eyes with
killing intent and added, “She’s my wife. She doesn’t need care from another man.”
After saying that, Terrence shook off Kieran’s hand in disgust and took out a handkerchief
to wipe
his hands.
Kieran wasn’t bothered by this extremely provocative action.
“Fine,” Kieran said indifferently.
Then he turned around, got into the car, and left.
When Terrence arrived at the hospital, Alexa was already out of the intensive care unit. At
the
moment, she was sitting on the bed and having the oatmeal porridge that the nurse had
just brought over.
It was not as delicious as the food at home, but she was exhausted and had not eaten for
a whole
day.
Alexa wondered if Terrence knew that she was in the hospital now. “He might still be with
Brynlee now, right,” Alexa mumbled.
The soft and sweet oatmeal porridge became tasteless when she thought of that.
Alexa was about to put the bowl down when the door was suddenly kicked open.
When Alexa saw the tall and gloomy figure, her face turned pale.
It was Terrence!
She wondered, how could he know that I’m in the hospital?
Alexa opened her mouth, but she was too shocked to ask.
Clearly, she was very sick, but in front of Terrence, she had to try her best to pretend that
nothing had happened.
Seeing the bandage on her forehead, Terrence frowned with an unfathomable look in his
eyes.
Alexa looked up and forced a smile.
“How did you know that I’m here?” she asked softly.
She thought that Terrence would respond to her in a gentle and soft voice as he did a few
days ago. Alexa even recalled his surprisingly gentle smile at that time.
But Terrence did not smile.
He had a cold and terrifying look on his face. He suddenly knocked over the bowl in her
hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe oatmeal splashed a little on the back of her hand. Alexa’s fair and tender skin
instantly became
red and swollen.
The glass bowl smashed into the wall and made a terrible mess.
Terrence stared fixedly at her, without the slightest bit of emotion in his eyes.
“Why are you doing this?” Alexa asked patiently, suppressing her anger.
“Your injury is so serious that you need to come to the hospital. But didn’t you tell you it
was okay?”
Terrence responded to her with an indifferent question. Now, he was about to explode. He
might say something worse to Alexa when he was that angry.
He thought he was very nice to Alexa.
Terrence always gave whatever she wanted and followed her wishes.
Even if they were to divorce, he was willing to spend time teaching her how to gain a
foothold in this.
world.
Terrence even decided to help her for the rest of her life.
But in his opinion, Alexa never showed any gratitude to him.
“What did you say?” Alexa asked in a daze, and the smile on her face faded.
“I met Kieran on the way.” Terrence sneered and stared at Alexa. “What do you give me
that look?
Did I know that I shouldn’t?”
“I called him, so he came and picked me up,” Alexa said honestly.
Terrence became livid with rage, and then he glared at her.
“Alexa, you are really amazing. You’re not content with being Mrs. Ramsey. Are you
thinking about becoming part of the Powell family behind my back?” Terrence mocked.
“No, never!” Alexa replied.
Terrence pulled over a chair and sat down. He looked at her calmly.
“He cares about you. He told me not to blame you.” Terrence suddenly chuckled, as if he
had just told a very funny joke. “It’s not his place to tell me that, you
know.”
