We Will Collide Someday by Scarlett Sanchez novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6 He Just Pretends to Love You

“Are you hungry? What would you like to eat? I‘ll get someone to bring food over.”

Brynlee shook her head and acted like a spoiled child in his arms. “I want to eat the porridge cooked by you.”

“Alright.” Terrence pinched her face lovingly “Wait for me, I‘ll make it for you right now”

He got up when he walked past Alexa, his gentle smile faded and was replaced by a sense of alienation.

“Go see the doctor by yourself. I‘ll ask Edwin to send you back.”

“It‘s fine, ” Alexa said decisively, “I will wait for you.”

Since Alexa was so persistent, Brynlee‘s eyes suddenly turned cold. Her hands hidden under the quilt tightly pinched the sheets

“Okay.”

Terrence replied indifferently, pushed open the door, and left.

Alexa found a seat in the corner and sat down. She lowered her head and stared at the jade bracelet on her wrist.

“Terrence is still the same.”

Brynlee‘s voice suddenly drifted into Alexa‘s ears. Alexa looked up warily and saw that Brynlee was walking over.

“Alexa, help me persuade him. He‘s busy with company work. How can he spend so much time on me every day?”

“Yes.”

Alexa was not interested in Brynlee and Terrence‘s love story. She forced herself to put on an invulnerable appearance and responded indifferently.

“This bracelet...”

Brynlee whispered in surprise, covering her mouth and chuckling.

“What?”

Brynlee said, “Nothing. It‘s just a bit like the one Terrence bought for me a few days ago. I thought it looked somehow ancient and didn‘t accept it.”

Alexa blinked her eyes as she lowered her head without speaking.

“Alexa, I didn‘t expect you to like such bracelets.” Brynlee pretended unaware and continued to ask, “Where did you buy it? If I knew your liking, I would have given it to you.”

“Don‘t bother, Brynlee,” Alexa politely said, “When the person sending the gift is different, the meaning is different.”

“Oh...”

Brynlee raised her voice and her tone became ambiguous.

“Did Terrence give it to you?”

Brynlee did not say it directly, but Alexa felt that she had been slapped, and her cheeks burned with pain.

The cold jade bracelet on her hand was like a heavy shackle, depriving her of self–esteem.

Alexa thought, Terrence, I wonder what you were thinking.

“Alexa.” Brynlee said with a lake smile, “Sometimes, what you like is not necessarily suitable for you.”

“11 doesn‘t matter, as long as I‘m happy.”

The atmosphere in the ward was extremely awkward. Alexa stood up and didn‘t want to stay here for a moment.

“Alexa!”

Brynlee suddenly grabbed her wrist.

“Do you know why I suddenly went abroad?”

“l‘in not interested.”

“Why did Terrence agree to marry you? Did anyone tell you the truth?”

Alexa‘s face was pale. She was on the verge of collapse.

“Of course, you wouldn‘t know.” Brynlee‘s eyes were red, and her tone was full of unwillingness and ridicule “He can only protect me by pretending to love you.”

“Stop joking.”

Alexa forced herself to answer, and that familiar pain seemed to flood back again.

“You think I am joking?” Brynlee sneered, “You simply wouldn‘t understand how difficult it has been for me and Terrence to love each other. Now, I just want to take back what I deserve.”

“It‘s meaningless for you to tell me this.”

“Why are you still staying by his side? You should have left the Ramsey‘s home long ago!”

Brynlee was extremely agitated. Alexa‘s patience had been completely exhausted. She suddenly broke free of Brynlee‘s grip

“Ah!”

With a scream, Brynlee fell backward uncontrollably.

Alexa subconsciously wanted to help her, but she was caught off guard and pulled to the side by someone holding her

wrist.

She hit her head against the wall, and it took a full minute for her to recover from the pain.
