Terrance and Alexia novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Passenger Seat Belongs to Mrs. Ramsey

“Why didn‘t you tell me?” He asked with slight displeasure.

Thinking about what happened last night, Alexa could not help but feel wronged.

“I wanted to,” she said softly, “but my phone was hung up.”

Terrence was the one who hung up her call.

“It‘s not a big problem.” Alexa had to continue her lies, “I have already taken the medicine.”

“No.” Terrence said persistently, “Every time you just make your condition more and more serious. I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Upon hearing the word “hospital“, Alexa was shocked. Her face immediately turned pale.

If she went to the hospital for a check-up, her secret would be exposed.

“No need!” Alexa hurriedly said.

“What‘s up?” He frowned. “Why not go to the hospital when you‘re sick?”

“I just don‘t want to.”

Terrence smiled helplessly, got up, and walked to her.

Alexa immediately grabbed his hand and placed it on her forehead.

“Look, I don’t have a fever. I feel quite well.”

But this was not enough to convince Terrence.

He acted as if coaxing a child, his gaze becoming gentle.

“There‘s a new restaurant in the east of the city. I‘ll take you there after seeing the doctor.”

At this moment, he was a completely different person from who he was last night. Alexa almost indulged in his tenderness.

“I don‘t want to bother you.”

“Be good.”

Terrence pinched her face. They suddenly became so intimate like real lovers.

Alexa agreed, got up, and followed him to the garage, even forgetting the divorce agreement in her bag.

Terrence helped her open the door like a gentleman. Alexa saw the exquisite gift box on the passenger seat at a glance.

“I‘ll sit in the back seat.”

Alexa’s eyes dimmed and she consciously walked back.

“The passenger seat belongs to Mrs. Ramsey. What’s more, this gift is for you,” Terrence said as he pulled her arm.

“Gift for me?”

“I thought it suited you and bought it.”

Set Berlino

He bought it last night.

Although he was angry, when he saw it, he immediately guessed that Alexa would like it. He had someone bid it down and sent it to him in air delivery.

At this time, Alexa expectantly opened the gift box. A delicately–made white Jade bracelet appeared in front of her like moonlight.

Seeing the smile on her face, Terrence also became happy.

“You like it?”

“I so.”

“How are you going to thank me?”

“How much is it? I‘ll transfer the money to you.”

Terrence’s smile froze.

“What do I need that money for?”

“Then...”

Alexa looked at Terrence with a puzzled expression. Terrence tapped his thin lips with his finger.

“What do you mean?”

“What do you think?”

“Well...”

Alexa’s face flushed.

Although they had been married for so long, Alexa would still be shy when facing Terrence.

Terrence was very happy to see her expression.

Alexa hesitated. He suddenly stretched out his arm and forcefully wrapped them around her waist. His sudden embrace scared her into immediately closing her eyes.

Her wrist was grabbed, and soon she felt a cool touch.

Alexa opened her eyes and saw the jade bracelet in her hand.

“Why were you nervous?” Terrence deliberately asked her.

“I ... I wasn‘t.”

Alexa stammered and tidied up her clothes lowering her head. She sat upright.
