Chapter 107 Ask Terrence to Give Her Money
How ruthless he was!
Edwin swallowed helplessly and looked at Terrence with a pale face.
There was doubt, confusion, and even deep sympathy in his eyes.
Every deed had its consequences. Now that things had become like this, what could
Terrence do except admit his mistake?
Edwin couldn’t resist Terrence, but it seemed that Terrence wouldn’t contact Kieran
himself.
Thinking of giving it a try, Edwin dialed Alexa’s number again.
Surprisingly, this time, he reached Alexa.
Alexa held the phone Kieran had just given her and said softly.
“Edwin, what’s up?”
“Mrs. Ramsey, you finally picked up the phone!” Edwin seemed to have finally seen hope
and
almost burst into tears.
–
Terrence fixedly his dark eyes on him, unwilling to miss any word.
Understanding Terrence’s gaze, Edwin continued.
“Mr. Ramsey has been looking for you. We are now at the door of Mr. Powell’s house.”
Hearing the last two words, Alexa suddenly changed her expression.
Kieran calmly ate the food on his plate. He had expected such a thing to happen sooner or
later.
“Well…” Alexa suddenly stopped talking and explained awkwardly, “I lost my phone and
couldn’t
get a call.”
Edwin turned on the speaker, so Terrence clearly heard her explanation.
The moment the rain poured down, the ice in his eyes showed signs of melting.
“Let her come out now,” Terrence said in a calm and deep voice.
His voice was so unique that Alexa immediately recognized it.
Her face was a little sullen and she did not look particularly happy.
Kieran, who was sitting opposite her, had put down his plate and fork and gracefully wiped

corner of his mouth with the tissue.
“I got it,” Alexa whispered with a pale face.
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Kieran and hesitated.
“He came to pick you up?”
“Yes, at the door.”
“Do you want to go back?”
Kieran stared at her with deep and gentle eyes.
The gentler he was, the more Alexa wanted to cry.
She and Kieran were not related, but Kieran had helped her so many times. He didn’t care
if he would get into trouble because of her…
Perhaps there was true love in this world.
It was just that she was not worthy of it.
Alexa thought for a moment and nodded firmly.
“Actually, it doesn’t matter. He won’t do anything to me.”
Kieran pursed his thin lips, silently hiding his emotions.
“That’s good.”
Alexa’s heartbeat slowed down. She immediately went to her room to bring out her
things.
“Dr. Powell, I will transfer the money for the clothes and mobile phone to you later.”
“No need.”
“I will talk to Terrence and beg him not to target the Powell Group again.”
“How can you beg him?” Kieran asked calmly, “He is a businessman. He will not do
anything
without benefits.”
This question was too sharp. Alexa even had nothing to say.
That was right. How could she beg Terrence…?
Kieran blinked his eyes, stopped talking, and personally opened the door for her.
Terrence impatiently walked to the door and saw Alexa who was hiding behind Kieran.
He was simply an outsider standing outside the door.
“What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and come out,” Terrence said coldly.
The gloom in Kieran’s eyes welled up. He looked at Terrence without the slightest warmth
in his
eyes.
Alexa, like a marionette, walked around Kieran without the slightest hesitation.
Terrence quietly tilted the umbrella to cover Alexa. He locked his eyes on her pale face.
When she got closer to him, Terrence immediately pulled her over.
“Dr. Powell…”
A terrible anger suddenly flashed through Terrence’s eyes.
“Let’s go!”
Terrence coldly ordered her and forced her to turn around.
Even though his warm chest was right in front of her, Alexa still felt terrifyingly cold.
Terrence stuffed her into the car. Before Alexa could sit properly, Terrence reached his
hand over
and loosened her belt.
She would have dodged in horror.
But now, Alexa was sitting quietly and letting him do as he pleased.
Terrence immediately noticed that something was wrong. Then he pulled a blanket and
put it on
her.
“What are you doing?” Terrence asked with a displeased expression.
However, the fury that Alexa had imagined didn’t arrive.
“Can you lend me some money?” Alexa lowered her head and asked awkwardly.
Terrence’s eyes flashed as he saw her ears turn completely red in an instant.
This was the first time Alexa had said something like this.
It was rare that she was so obedient in front of him.
“What is it?” Terrence asked impatiently, “What happened again? How much do you
want?”
“Mr. Powell bought me a new mobile phone. I want to return the money to him.”
After a long time, a mocking sneer suddenly sounded in the quiet car.
Alexa was willing to accept it and did not argue with him at all.
Terrence angrily tapped the phone screen a few times and transferred 160 thousand

Powell Group’s account without hesitation.
Then Terrence put away his phone and looked at Alexa beside him calmly.
“Why must I lend you money?” Terrence was so angry that he was about to lose his
temper. He sneered. “Didn’t you go home with him? Why do you care about the money?”
Alexa pursed her lips tightly and could not say a word.
Terrence saw her like this and eased his attitude a lot.
“You have to at least let me know what benefits it is for me to lend you money?”
He was about to speak out his heart, but he still couldn’t.
As long as Alexa could act like a spoiled child in front of him like before, he would give her
anything
she wanted.
But Alexa still did not.
She seemed to be dumb and sat with her head down in a daze.
Terrence instantly lost interest and no longer cared about her.
After returning to the Duckdale Villa, Alexa instantly went to the kitchen.
Everything that happened today was unusual, including Alexa’s cooking.
Terrence did not return to the room but sat on the sofa to watch Alexa working in the
kitchen.
Not long after, the sound of pots and pans colliding rang out in the kitchen.
He quietly looked at Alexa, feeling isolated by a nameless loneliness.
Alexa’s cooking did not improve much, but she was really hungry. Besides, she had to take
medicine later, so she had to eat something before that.
After being busy for a while, she improvised on a bowl of noodle soup.
Alexa cheerfully and carefully carried the bowl out, but as she was distracted, the bowl fell
to the ground and got broken.
Terrence heard the crisp sound, got up, and walked toward her.
Alexa squatted down with a calm expression and picked up the broken pieces one by one
with his
hand.
