Chapter 103 Love Is Never a Necessity to Me
“You need to bother me with something like that? Don’t we have rules and regulations?”
Terrence’s voice was so harsh and cold. Hearing that, Jerry panicked.
“I see. I’ll get someone to deal with it immediately.”
After the call ended, Terrence went to his office with a gloomy face.
After he reprimanded Jerry, the HR department became surprisingly efficient.
Terrence had just passed by the Secretariat Office, and there was only a cardboard box left
on
Alexa’s desk.
“Take her things to my office. Let her come and get them herself.”
He stood at the door and spoke coldly. Tiana immediately followed his order and carried
the box. over.
Terrence found it difficult to calm down and do things for an entire morning.
When Edwin came in to report, he was so frightened by Terrence’s face that he dared not
look up.
Edwin thought, alas! The couple is quarreling, and we, the workers, are the ones who
suffer!
Terrence handed the document to Edwin and suddenly asked coldly.
“Anything else?”
Edwin’s back instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He nervously straightened his body.
“No, Mr. Ramsey. Mrs. Ramsey did not contact me!”
Terrence’s face was even more livid.
“I’m not asking about her!” Terrence gritted his teeth. He shouted coldly, “Get out!”
“Yes, Mr. Ramsey.”
Edwin walked quickly to the door. In front of him was not just an exquisite and luxurious
door, but a
door to freedom!
Terrence took the phone and opened the chat interface with Alexa skillfully.
There was nothing. She did not text him again.
Terrence frowned and provoked her.
He texted: “Come and get your things now. I don’t have time to take them home.”

Terrence believed that he had already shown her a way out clearly. If Alexa relented a
little, het would let things slide and even allow her to work in the HR department again.
But Alexa didn’t.
She was sitting in the hospital’s café with Maeve. When she received Terrence’s message,
Alexa did
not think about it at all.
She directly replied: “Throw them away. I don’t want them.”
Alexa was already so disappointed in Terrence because of the phone call at the manor, let
alone.
going to see him at work.
She thought, he doesn’t like me anyway. Why should I humiliate myself and be so
humble?
Seeing Alexa’s reply, Terrence was about to flip out.
He thought, how dare she?
Terrence texted back: “Do you think I give a shit about your things? You’d better come
now!”
Alexa thought, it seems that we have reached a consensus.
Alexa put her phone down and never texted him back.
Maeve stirred her coffee at the side. She saw Kieran walking towards the café from afar.
“Dr. Powell!” Maeve suddenly spoke up and waved enthusiastically at him. “Come and sit
here.”
Alexa hadn’t come back to her senses. She glanced at Maeve, a bit frightened, while
Kieran had already sat down next to them.
“Dr. Powell, what a coincidence.” For the first time in her life, Alexa felt a little nervous.
She greeted Kieran with an awkward smile.
“Indeed. I’m free this afternoon, so I’m here for some coffee.” Kieran was as gentle and
calm as
usual.
Maeve’s eyes were very meaningful. It was like they were glued to Kieran.
Maeve thought, he is so good-looking!
His character is flawless!
He has a promising career!
In short, he is Mr. Perfect!
Maeve showed a loving smile on her face, and she glanced at Alexa meaningfully.
“Dr. Powell, I heard that you are Alexa’s attending doctor.”
Hearing Maeve’s words, Alexa was stunned. She immediately had a bad feeling.
Alexa coughed meaningfully and explained officially, “Yes. I have to thank Dr. Powell for
taking
care of me these days.”
“It’s my job. Don’t mention it.”
Alexa thought, I’m sure Maeve must have misunderstood something again. Feeling
helpless, Alexa wished she could drag Maeve out right now.
Maeve had been chatting with Kieran for just two minutes, and she had already figured
out about Kieran’s family background, hobbies, and social relationships.
Alexa’s fair face was flushed, and she did not dare to look Kieran in the eyes.
Kieran patiently answered Maeve’s questions without a trace of dissatisfaction.
Not long after, the waiter brought up the drinks they ordered.
Kieran subtly glanced at the warm milk in front of Alexa, and then the worry in his eyes
was gone.
Maeve went quiet for a while, which was a rare thing, and Alexa put her guard down.
Yet soon after, Maeve suddenly dropped a bomb.
“Dr. Powell, do you have a girlfriend?”
Kieran’s hand that was holding the coffee froze for a second, and in the next second, he
calmly
replied.
“No.”
“How about I fix you up with someone?” Maeve looked very determined.
“Maeve…”
Alexa glanced at Maeve with embarrassment. However, it seemed that Maeve didn’t
understand the meaning of Alexa’s gaze at all.
As they continued to chat, there was a sudden burst of noise at the door.
Several nurses rushed forward hurriedly pushing a hospital bed. Meanwhile, someone
kept
shouting to drive the crowd away.
“Make way! Doctor!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe atmosphere in the hall was instantly filled with panic and helplessness. Alexa
subconsciously turned around, and a figure quickly ran past her.
Kieran’s figure appeared at the bedside at once. Seeing that, Alexa was no longer
flustered.
Whenever he took action, it always made her feel a sense of security.
“It will be fine. Everything will be fine. Dr. Powell is there. Nothing is going to happen,”
Alexa
murmured.
“Alexa, what do you think of Dr. Powell? Not bad, right?” Maeve said meaningfully.
“Stop fantasizing. Nothing is going to happen between him and me,” Alexa said, stopping
Maeve from having unrealistic ideas.
“How so? Are you two done with love?” Maeve said righteously. Then her tone suddenly
became domineering. “Don’t tell me you still have feelings for Terrence. Has he gotten into
you?”
“Of course not.” Alexa denied it and said nothing more.
Maeve had been friends with Alexa for enough years to know what Alexa was thinking.
Maeve casually stirred her coffee and said slowly without raising her head.
“Alexa, don’t be stupid. A man like Terrence doesn’t deserve to stand in your way.”
“Maeve, don’t worry. I know what to do. Love is never a necessity to me.” Alexa’s eyes
were utterly
calm.
She had never dreamed of being loved by Terrence or others.
No one would love a dying person unreservedly.
After the coffee, Alexa and Maeve chatted for a while.
Not long after, Alexa went to the ward alone.
The corridor in the afternoon was quiet.
When Alexa passed by the nurse station, she accidentally heard the nurses talking.
“I heard that our hospital is going to be acquired by Hudson Group.’
“The board of directors seemed to have decided to transfer Dr. Powell abroad.”
“Ah? What does this have to do with Dr. Powell?”
