Chapter 232 The Truth Is Often Cruel
Jason said emotionally and sighed helplessly.
"No matter what, the Ramsey family has let her down."
"Back then, if not for you fooling around with other women, how could Alexa be hurt like this by you!"
Rebekah was still angry, and her cold eyes were locked on Terrence.
"I will try my best," Terrence spoke lightly and powerlessly.
After explaining things to his parents, Terrence went to the company.
When the receptionist saw him, she immediately stepped forward respectfully.
"Mr. Ramsey, Ms. Barrell, the president of Constan Group is here. She is waiting for you in the reception room."
"Okay."
Terrence walked into the reception room but did not expect that the person sitting in front of him was Carissa.
She wore an elegant and simple custom-made long dress and exquisite makeup. She didn't look like she was in a tearing hurry anymore.
"Mr. Ramsey, long time no see," Carissa smiled, her every move elegant.
Because of Alexa, Terrence's attitude towards Carissa was not so cold.
He nodded slowly in response but still sat far away opposite her.
"Mr. Ramsey, I am in charge of my family company now." Carissa said confidently, "I'm very happy to cooperate with Hudson Group." Terrence didn't say many civilities and flipped through the contract.
Because she was Alexa's friend, Terrence relaxed the conditions and soon came to an agreement with Carissa.
However, she was not in a hurry to leave but talked about something else with Terrence.
"Alexa is back." Carissa pointed out, "How are things between you two?"
Terrence glanced at her casually and did not intend to talk about it.
"I am disappointed she didn't tell me these things. I've been friends with her for so many years."
Realizing Terrence was ignoring her, Carissa calmly said.
"I know everything about her and Mr. Powell."
When he heard that, Terrence's eyes flickered slightly.
"You know?"
He said in a deep voice commandingly.
"It's all in the past. There's no point in mentioning that anymore." Carissa avoided his gaze. "It's just that Alexa has feelings for Mr. Powell. It's better if you don't disturb her." Terrence's eyes turned cold, and darkness rose in his eyes.
"Moreover, they were only faking their marriage to make you give up."
"What you said is true?"
"The truth is often cruel. Mr. Ramsey, you should be very clear about that, right?"
Carissa looked down and whispered calmly.
"Back then, Mr. Darrell was deceived like this. I just hope you will not make the same mistake. Alexa is really good at using feelings."
Terrence's face was sour, and Carissa tactfully picked up the contract.
"That's all I can say. Goodbye."
After Carissa left, Terrence sat alone in the conference room for a long time.
Alexa...
Not long after, Carissa met Alexa and Kieran at the entrance of the hospital.
"Alexa!"
Hearing the enthusiastic call, Alexa looked up in shock. The moment she saw Carissa, her eyes were instantly filled with tears.
"Carissa?"
Carissa gracefully got out of the car and looked at the two with a subtle gaze.
"Ms. Barrell," Kieran said politely.
Carissa clicked her tongue and moved closer to Alexa, saying mysteriously. "Alexa, not bad."
"Carissa, it's not what you think," Alexa explained in embarrassment.
Kieran did not mind and looked at Alexa.
"Do you want to talk to Ms. Barrell? Then I won't disturb you."
"Okay."
Alexa nodded. She and Kieran were like a loving couple.
Carissa smiled and did not speak. This confirmed her theory.
"Alexa. Let's have a cup of coffee."
"Alright!"
Alexa was overjoyed and intimately held Carissa's hand.
"Carissa, it's been a long time."
"Yeah, you left without saying goodbye. You made me worry for a long time." Carissa said angrily, "Today, you have to explain it to me clearly."
"I'm really sorry about what happened back then, but I have no other way."
After the two sat down in the café, Alexa began to explain what had happened that year.
"At that time, I was in a critical condition on the operation platform and fell into a coma. When I woke up, I was no longer in New York."
"Alexa, then your illness..."
"It's all cured." Alexa said with relief, "My brother contacted a medical team abroad. They developed special drugs for me."
"Well, that's good."
Carissa just nodded thoughtfully, not very happy.
"You have completely given up on Terrence now? Don't you have any feelings for him?"
Alexa paused.
"Of course." There was no warmth or affection in Alexa's eyes.
"Not only do I not love him, but I want to return all the harm he has done to me."
"Okay, Alexa. I support you!"
Alexa did not want to say more about Terrence, but the next second, she received a call from Rebekah.
Alexa was a little hesitant when she answered the call, but she still called out.
"Mrs. Ramsey."
Hearing that, Carissa silently stirred the sugar in her coffee cup, and a strange look flashed across her eyes. Alexa simply responded a few times before ending the call. Carissa sipped her coffee and sounded out. "Alexa, was that Terrence's mother just now?"
"Yes, she asked me out for dinner tonight." "They must be on Terrence's side, Alexa. Are you really going?"
"The grudge between me and Terrence is unnecessary to involve others." Alexa nodded, fully at ease. "What's more, it's a good opportunity to make things clear." After bidding farewell to Carissa, Alexa went to the styling room to do a good hairstyle and then calmly attended the appointment.
Alexa knew Terrence would come, so she put on a new diamond ring.
The banquet was at the most luxurious hotel in New York. There were many bodyguards around, who were on high alert. It suggested important guests would come tonight. Alexa calmly tidied up her hair, walked into the elevator, and went straight to the top floor.
In the luxurious room, there were only Jason and Rebekah. Both of them were dressed solemnly. Obviously, they attached great importance to tonight's dinner.
Hearing the knock on the door, Rebekah could not wait to come forward to welcome him.
When Rebekah saw Alexa standing gracefully at the door, her eyes were instantly filled with tears, and she immediately hugged Alexa.
"Alexa, you are here..."
Alexa's hands stopped in the air for a moment and finally slowly fell on Rebekah's back.
"Mrs. Ramsey, I'm back."
"It's good that you're back. I am happy!"
Rebekah released Alexa. Rebekah's eyes were red. After that, she carefully sized her up a few times.
"Alexa, you've lost a lot of weight. You've suffered a lot these years."
