Chapter 252 Leave Us Alone

Alexa calmed down and stared at him.

"Terrence, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"Are you full? Do you want something more?"

"I'm full of anger."

Alexa sat down and looked at her phone in boredom.

Alexa's phone was reflected in the glass, and Terrence clearly saw Alexa was looking at the chat.

A call with Kieran was not enough for her, and she had to text chat with him now?

Terrence pulled his collar in irritation, and the knuckles of his hand that was holding the steering wheel turned white.

"Alexa."

"Yeah?" she answered absent-mindedly, her eyes not moving away from the screen.

Terrence's face was even more sullen. He didn't want to give up so easily and asked sternly.

"Why do you like Kieran?"

For quite a long time, Alexa did not reply.

Terrence felt part of him was dying, and he could do nothing but watch helplessly.

"Terrence, do we really need a reason to like or love someone?"

Alexa asked slowly, and Terrence was stunned for a long time.

"We do," Terrence answered honestly. "We even need reasons to hate."

"But I don't need it. I just follow my heart."

Outside the window, the rain was becoming heavier and heavier. In the distance, there was a clap of thunder, as if the world was weeping loudly.

"It's getting late." Terrence changed the topic. "Let's go home."

"I'll go back to my home."

"Okay."

When she arrived at the Duran's house, the lights in the living room were still on. Alexa knew that Keyon must have come back, and she instantly had very mixed feelings.

"Bye."

"Alexa, wait a moment."

Terrence got out of the car with an umbrella and quickly walked to her side.

"Let me walk you in."

The two each held an umbrella, and there seemed to be a wall between them.

"No need, I'll go in myself," Alexa refused coldly. "You can go now."

Terrence turned around silently. But after only a few seconds, he suddenly walked back to her.

"It's almost winter. Do you still cough in your sleep at night? Do you still have cold hands and feet?"

"I'm alright."

"That's good." Terrence smiled happily. "Then I'll make some soupand bring it to you tomorrow morning."

"Thanks, but no." Alexa talked as if she was talking to a stranger.

"We've got a doctor in the house."

"Go in now. The rain is getting heavier."

After Terrence finished speaking, Alexa walked to the door without looking back.

Once she disappeared behind the door, Terrence reluctantly withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.

After Alexa entered the house, she stayed in the living room.

Keyon was playing with Damarion on the sofa. After seeing her,

Damarion happily called, "Mom."

"Yareli, take Damarion upstairs to sleep."

"Uncle, I'm not leaving."

"Damarion, do as your mom says."

Keyon rubbed Damarion's head and talked to him patiently for a while before Damarion reluctantly left with Yareli.

Alexa threw her handbag aside and sat down on the sofa, exhausted.

Keyon had no choice but to stop talking and go to fetch a glass of drink for Alexa.

"You seem tired from work lately. Do you want to take a break?"

Keyon asked with concern.

"It's fine." Alexa shook her head. "Actually, I don't feel tired when I'm busy."

Keyon watched her finish the drink and finally asked.

"Was it Terrence who sent you back just now? I saw his car."

"Yes." Alexa did not intend to hide it from Keyon. "I met him at the hotel."

"Alexa, if you feel bothered by him, we can go back."

"Keyon, it's alright."

Hearing this, Keyon paused and suddenly asked.

"Alexa, it's been many years but you're still not over him, right?"

"Keyon, since we are in New York, he is unavoidable." Alexa was very calm and did not seem bothered by Terrence. "And it is impossible for me to like him again."

Keyon smiled with satisfaction and put his hand on Alexa's shoulder.

"Alexa, as long as you don't like him, I have no problem with you meeting him."

"Okay."

"How is it going with Kieran?"

"Just okay."

Alexa was not in high spirits and did not want to talk about thismatter.

"No problem. Take your time."

Alexa was just about to go upstairs when Keyon suddenly added.

"Alexa, let's go back after this year. The second phase of the treatment is about to begin." Alexa's body froze as if she had been nailed to the ground.

"Got it."

After Alexa went upstairs, Keyon rubbed the place between his eyebrows somewhat tiredly.

Of course, he wanted Alexa to be happy, but there were manyhardships in real life to overcome.

Not long after, a black figure quietly appeared at the door.

"Is it all done?" Keyon lit a cigarette and held it.

"Mr. Duran, we have found out," the man reported firmly.

"Terrence indeed had a part in bankrupting the Duran Group."

"Got it."

After that person left, Keyon also went upstairs to return to his room.

Unexpectedly, he saw someone in a skirt disappear around thecorner.

He didn't say anything, nor did he try to catch her. Instead, he silently returned to his room.

All the while, Alexa fled to the balcony in panic.

She had heard clearly what the man had just said.

Her brother had been investigating the Duran Group's bankruptcy all these years, but she did not expect that Terrence was actually involved.

If they dug deeper, they might replace a bigger conspiracy.

The night rain showed no signs of stopping. Alexa sat on the sofa, letting the cold wind along with the cold rain hit her body.

Though cold air kept coming in, Alexa felt suffocated, as if a hand was tightly around her neck.

"Why..."

Her words were dispersed by the cold night. After a long time, dawn finally arrived.

The next morning, Alexa got up and found Damarion had caught afever.

Keyon had left for a business trip. Alexa wasted no time and hurriedly took Damarion to the hospital.

Terrence happened to be inspecting a nearby mall. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Alexa's car drive into the hospital. Despite the executives who had come with him, he drove away and chased Alexa's car.

After Alexa pulled up the car, she immediately carried Damarion tothe Pediatrics Department. And she ran into Terrence.

"What happened to Damarion?" he asked with a frown.

"Fever."

Alexa said curtly. Then she impatiently walked past Terrence.

"Let me carry him." Terrence quickly followed. "Have you got a doctor?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure in a white coat showed up.

Kieran took Damarion away from Alexa while saying to Alexa unhurriedly.

"The doctor is waiting. Let's hurry over."

"Good!" Alexa nodded madly and followed Kieran without hesitation.

Frowning, Terrence glared at Kieran and followed Alexa. "Terrence, don't come," Alexa suddenly said to him emotionally. "Can you leave us alone?"
