Chapter 209 You Question Me for Him

"Okay, go ahead."

Terrence gently touched her hair with his fingertips, and his eyes were full of tenderness.

"Dr. Powell was injured, just on the night he met you."

Hearing this. Terrence immediately stopped and kept a distance from her.

The tenderness in his eyes faded away in an instant and then turned to be as cold as before.

Alexa looked at him in surprise.

"Do you think I did something to him?"

"I just..."

"No need to say anything more."

Terrence stood up decisively and stood in front of her coldly.

"Am I such a bad person in your eyes?"

"Don't get me wrong. I just want to ask you."

"Are you questioning me for him?"

Alexa was getting more and more anxious, but Terrence's face was as dark as ink, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

The two of them chose to be silent at the same time, and the temperature in the ward instantly seemed to drop.

Alexa lowered her head with tears in her eyes.

The cake in her hands was getting cold and greasy.

A few minutes later, Terrence sighed helplessly, with deep disappointment and anger.

"I know you care about Kieran," he said coldly, "But do you have to show it in front of me?"

Alexa didn't know how to retort and even blamed herself for what she had done.

"It's my fault," Alexa coughed heavily and said weakly, "I won't do that again."

Terrence bit his lips and left the ward with a long face.

Before long, a group of doctors rushed over and began to check Alexa.

The ward was once again busy. Terrence stood at the door with cold eyes and stared at her.

Alexa tried hard to hold back her tears and looked at the doctors with a stubborn look.

Without saying anything more, Terrence turned around and left without hesitation.

Two hours later, the doctors left.

Alexa lay on the bed weakly and began to feel sleepy.

But the smell of medicine in the ward made her want to vomit.

After thinking for a while, Alexa managed to get up.

She slowly walked to the door of the ward, and suddenly there was a burst of footsteps outside.

Before Alexa could dodge, Terrence appeared in front of her again.

With a bunch of white lilies in his hand, the black suit on him looked more and more decent and gracious.

Alexa was amazed, but Terrence was still cold to her.

He gave the flowers to her and walked into the ward.

"Where do you want to escape?"

As soon as Terrence spoke, Alexa gave up her plans.

"I just want to go downstairs for a walk. Where did you buy such beautiful flowers?"

"You think too much. I didn't buy them," Terrence said calmly, "It's from someone else."

"Others? Who?"

"Why do you ask so many questions?"

The fresh and elegant lily fragrance soon filled the ward. The smell of medicine dispelled a lot, and Alexa felt much better.

"Hey, I've brought you flowers," Terrence said meaningfully.

Alexa replied without hesitation.

"Thank you."

"Thank you?"

"What?"

"Just thank you?"

"Then... Or what?"

Terrence didn't expect that Alexa was such a blockhead.

He moved closer to her and pointed to his face carelessly.

"How can I know whether you are sincere or not?"

Alexa blushed at once as if he was flirting with her.

"How?"

"What do you think?" Terrence asked.

Alexa understood what he meant, but she was unwilling to admit it.

"I don't understand."

"It doesn't matter."

Terrence stood up and walked towards her, holding her shoulder.

Alexa looked at him, her heart beating faster than before.

"We have been married for a long time. Why are you still so shy?"

"What long time?"

Alexa mumbled, feeling that Terrence's hand was holding her more tightly.

He leaned slightly and raised her chin.

Alexa passively raised her head and felt Terrence's warm thin lips gently pressing on her.

He wasn't as forceful as he used to be. Instead, he was as gentle as a feather.

Alexa's eyes widened in disbelief. She pushed him away and hid aside.

Terrence licked his lips and looked at her with satisfaction.

Alexa raised her hand to wipe her lips and said defensively. "Don't do that!"

"Don't do what?"

Alexa grabbed her clothes awkwardly and immediately changed the topic.

"Thank you. I don't want to take a walk. I need to have a rest."

"You just ate cakes. Can you sleep now?"

Terrence knew her so well that he reached out his hand to her.

"I'll go for a walk with you."

Alexa looked at him hesitantly. Obviously, she didn't want to accept his request.

They would talk when they were together.

Once they started to talk, they would fight again within three sentences.

Alexa was so scared that she didn't dare to give it another try.

Unexpectedly, Terrence sat down on the edge of her bed.

The distance between the two was instantly shortened, and Alexa closed her eyes and began to pretend to be asleep. Terrence got close to her in a low voice, so close that her long and thick eyelashes could be seen clearly.

"You look much better recently.

"In my opinion, you can be discharged in less than two days."

Alexa couldn't help interrupting him when he mentioned her illness.

"I just started to be hospitalized today. How could it be so soon?"

You are young, so of course, you will recover soon."

His warm breath fell on Alexa's ears, making her feel like being grilled by a fire. She didn't dare to take a deep breath.

However, she fell asleep in the end.

After she fell asleep completely, Terrence left the ward and called Edwin in coldly.

"Have you checked the Duran family and those people?"

"All the servants in the past have lost contact. There is an old woman named Mary Hansom who is in her sixties. She used to be Mrs. Ramsey's personal housekeeper."

"Where is she?"

"We've brought her to New York. Mr. Ramsey can see her at any time."

Without any hesitation, Terrence went to the meeting place in person.

Not long after, he met the old man Edwin had mentioned in a café.

She wore an ancient rose-purple dress, and her silver hair was neatly coiled around the hairpin. Although she was already sixty years old, her body was still like a beautiful girl.

"Mrs. Hansom," Terrence said politely, "sorry to trouble you."

Seeing Terrence, Mary smiled happily.

"Oh, it's Mr. Ramsey. How has Mrs. Ramsey been recently?"

Terrence replied politely, "Good, she has been in the Ramsey family for three years."

"Oh!" Mary nodded repeatedly and said with relief, "I'm sure she must love you very much."

"Not bad."

"At that time, her parents didn't agree with you being together."

Mary said vaguely, but Terrence still caught the point.
