Chapter 115 Thinly Disguised
Without evidence, Alexa could not do anything.
Alexa stood up, refusing to let emotions get the better of her.
“Forget it. I’ll redesign it,” Alexa said gloomily.
In front of a business tycoon like Terrence, Alexa was thinly disguised.
Terrence held her face in his slightly rough palms. “Show me. We can solve it together.”
Alexa could only trust him now. So, without further ado, she found the two designs.
“Her color match, cutting, and even details are the same as mine. How could this be a
coincidence? But the thing is I don’t even know her,” Alexa told Terrence all her
grievances.
Terrence smoothed the stranded hair on her temples and said with a smile, “Leave it to
me. Don’t cry.”
“I’m not crying,” Alexa whispered, pursing her lips tightly.
Her eyes turned red, but she still refused to admit that she was crying.
“Liar.”
Terrence exposed her lie, as he took a step closer to her.
A bit frightened, Alexa took a step back and leaned against the wall.
Terrence straightened up her collar. When he looked up, he saw Alexa closing her eyes and
breathing rapidly.
Terrence chuckled. His smile was contagious.
He flicked Alexa’s forehead and teased her.
“Why are you so nervous? What are you thinking about?”
Terrence’s voice was so charming that Alexa could not hide her thoughts.
“Nothing. Let’s go.”
Alexa didn’t want to talk about it, but Terrence got something on her and stood still.
“There is one remaining issue.”
“What is it?” Alexa asked seriously.
Terrence leaned over and covered her tender lips with the warm, thin ones of his.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBeing pushed against the wall, Alexa placed her palms on Terrence’s chest in an attempt
to stop him. His warmth spread to her body, setting her on fire.
For such an innocent girl like Alexa, she just stood no chance in front of Terrence.
Alexa went weak at her legs under Terrence’s passionate kiss and fell into his arms.
She could smell the fragrance on his high-end customized dark gray striped suit.
The fresh, light scent was just like Terrence himself, making her crazy and want more.
Alexa was short of breath after the long, passionate kiss.
Terrence held her up. She immediately realized what had happened and got up.
Either of them could breathe properly.
Alexa cast a profound glance at Terrence, straightened up her clothes in a slightly
flustered manner, and hurried out.
Having sorted things out, Alexa left the hospital and returned to Duckdale Villa, half-
mindedly.
As Alexa was so concerned about the design, she didn’t notice Mina was not her usual self.
She walked straight to her room.
Her design drafts were neatly stacked on the table. Alexa quickly found something
strange.
This wasn’t supposed to be.
The drawings were in the wrong order.
Someone had touched her things.
Anxious and angry, Alexa found Mina.
“Mina, who came to my room?”
“Mrs. Ramsey, no one entered your room.” Mina lowered her head, not daring to look into
Alexa’s
eyes.
“It can’t be. Are you sure, Mina?” Alexa asked.
“Mrs. Ramsey, no one got into your room. You and Mr. Ramsey are both in the hospital.
Who else would be here?” Mina forced a smile.
After that, Mina hid in the kitchen, feeling guilty.
Alexa leaned against the railing in a heavy mood for a long time.
Mina lied to her.
Terrence had told her that no one knew that Rebekah was in the hospital. Even the maids
didn’t
know that.
But Mina said that they were in the hospital and emphasized that no one would come at
this time.
Her emphasis made her very suspicious.
Alexa stayed in the room for a while, and soon someone knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
It was Mina carrying some soup.
“Mrs. Ramsey, you must be exhausted. I asked the chef to make some chicken soup.”
“Thank you, Mina.”
Mina walked into the room. Alexa moved to the doorstep and locked it without being
noticed.
“The soup tastes better when it is hot.”
Mina turned around, only to see Alexa standing at the door and staring at her with a
profound
expression.
“Mrs. Ramsey, what’s wrong?”
“Mina, how many years have you been in the Ramsey family?”
Her words made Mina let her guard down.
“It has been thirty years. I’ve been with Mr. Ramsey as he grew up,” Mina said.
“If it’s the case, then is it Terrence who asked you to lie to me?”
After all, the only person in the family who could give Mina orders was Terrence.
This caught Mina off guard. She didn’t expect Alexa to be so straightforward.
She opened her mouth nervously. Apparently, she had not come up with an excuse.
“What is he hiding from me? Does it have something to do with his fiancée?” Alexa asked
leisurely.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFor the first time, Mina felt that this seemingly frail and quiet woman was a real
personality.
“Mr. Ramsey is treating you well. Why do you have to get everything straight?”
Why couldn’t Alexa learn to turn a blind eye to her husband’s affairs, just like the wives of
most rich
men?
But Alexa just couldn’t do it.
“Mina, there are some things that you don’t understand. I don’t want to make things
difficult for you. Off you go. Forget about the question.” Alexa found Brynlee’s phone
number with a long face.
Due to the pressure from Terrence, Mina could only make do.
When Mina left the room, she bumped into Terrence.
The man stood at the top of the stairs, gazing at Mina sharply.
Mina’s face turned pale as she opened her mouth.
“Mr. Ramsey…”
Terrence did not say anything. Instead, he darted an indifferent look at Mina and walked
into Alexa’s room, exuding dominance.
Alexa did not hesitate at all. She had already called Brynlee.
“You stole my design.”
Alexa was not asking her but telling Brynlee that she knew it.
After her wrongdoing was exposed, Brynlee was not embarrassed at all. Instead, she
chuckled.
“Sorry, I don’t know what you are talking about.”
“Brynlee, you are a bitch. Do you think you can take me down this way?” Alexa sneered.
“Are you planning to fight back? If you dare, I will ask my father to clean up all the
remnants of the Duran family, including you,” Brynlee threatened her.
