We Will Collide Someday by Scarlett Sanchez novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54 Hate Is Deeper Than Love

However, Terrence’s action made Alexa feel that he never cared whether others hated him or not.

“Tomorrow is your birthday, right?”

A shudder coursed through Alexa as she heard Terre

“Why are you asking?” Alexa replied in disgust.

Ever since the incident, she hated her birthday.

Alexa’s parents passed away on her birthday.

Pain squeezed her heart, and she felt it was hard to breathe.

Did he inention her birthday because she had just refused to move in with him?

“How old are you? 22?23?”

“23,”Alexa answered coldly.

Maybe she will die at 23.

Alexa sighed silently. Sometimes it was hard to accept.

For many people, twenty-three was just the beginning of their wonderful life.

Alexa’s mood shifted in seconds. She coughed a few times and forced herself to stop thinking about

Terrence reached out, patted her back, and tucked her in.

Alexa grasped her collar and dodged from his touch without a trace.

Terrence did not notice her unusual reaction. He seemed he had something in his mind.

“Every birthday is important,” Terrence murmured.

Alexa was not in the mood to listen to him anymore. The drug she took started to ease her pain, and she drifted off to sleep.

“What do you want for your birthday this year?” Terrence asked,

However, Alexa didn’t answer.

He sat up and saw Alexa had already fallen asleep.

Why didn’t she care about her birthday?

Alexa woke up and completely forgot what Terrence had said last night the next morning.

She went downstairs for breakfast after freshening up.

Unlike the toast and milk Alexa usually had, there was a bowl of hot soup in front of her.

“Happy birthday, Mrs. Ramsey,” Mina said warmly

“Thank you, Mina,” Alexa smiled and asked, “Where is Terrence?”

“Mr. Ramsey went out early in the morning.”

“I see.”

Alexa nodded and did not ask other questions,

Alexa had some soup and left the house in a hurry.

She asked Tiana for a leave today and did not go to the office.

Alexa found all the documents she needed and took a taxi to the old site of the Duran Group’s factory.

Today was her birthday and also the day when the factory reopened.

Even after three years, she still remembered the path to the factory clearly.

The Duran Group’s factory was located in the suburbs of New York. The road was not too remote, but it was drizzling today, and the path was muddy.

Alexa walked along the path and saw an operating factory.

How was this possible? She thought the workers had already left.

Alexa had a bad feeling about it. She walked to the front gate and found a security guard on the way.

“Excuse me, sir. Isn’t this place reopening today? How did they start working this soon?”

“Reopen? What are you talking about? This place has always been open. My boss even sent an inspection team to check it out yesterday.”

“Your boss? Who’s your boss?”

“Brenton Darrell from the Darrell family.”

Alexa was stunned. She looked at the factory gate with red eyes. “How is this possible?”

“He seems to have taken over from the previous Owner. Even the production line has not changed.”

The security guard’s words echoed in her ears.

Alexa’s mind went blank. She felt like she had just been struck by lightning without warning, Her heart was shaking to the point of bursting,

How could it be possible?

Alexa suddenly got the courage to ask Brenton herself. She took out her plione and found Brenton’s

number.

She didn’t know how to put it if it was really Brenton.

Thoughts were churning in her head, but she didn’t flinch.

She dialed his number.

Brenton picked up after a few seconds.

“Hey,” Alexa tried to speak in a calm voice, but her hands were trembling.

“What’s wrong, Alexa?”

Brenton’s voice was unusually calm as if he was still her boyfriend.

Alexa could picture Brenton’s handsome and bright face even through the phone.

“Brenton?”

“Yeah?”

“I have something to ask you.”

“Although I don’t know what you are going to say, I will definitely help you if I can.”

Brenton’s voice was very gentle and made Alexa wonder if this was her imagination.

Brenton was such a proud man, and she dumped him.

She couldn’t even find a trace of anger or a sneer in his tone.

Brenton was still a decent guy!

Alexa felt so guilty that she wanted to cry. She forced herself to hold back the tears that were about

to fall.

“You bought my family’s factory?”

Brenton didn’t respond for a while from the other side of the line as he heard Alexa’s words.

“Brenton?” Alexa called out his name with mixed feelings.

“Do you hate me, Alexa?” Brenton asked in a low voice.

“What?

“I took away the thing you love. Do you hate me for that?”

We need to talk this through, Brenton.”

“I hope you hate me,” Brenton chuckled and replied, “I want you to hate me. Hate is deeper than love, and it’s better than forgetting me. I want you to remember me.”

“You know it’s over between us,” Alexa said weakly.

“Yeah, I remember. I have to call you Mrs. Ramsey now.”.

“I…”

“I’m not that generous, Alexa. I don’t want you to live happily ever after by his side. You can ask Terrence to come and talk to me. I want to see if he is qualified to be your husband.”

“Brenton. Brenton?”

Alexa tried to say something, but Brenton had already hung up.

The rain seemed to become heavier, smashing against the umbrella and making a crackling sound.

Alexa did not know someone behind her was walking away from her.

Terrence held up a black umbrella, and a chill swirled around him. His expression was thunderous.

His face was cold as the winter wind under the umbrella.

Terrence could not hear how noisy the world in the rain was. All he thought about at the moment was Alexa’s voice as she called Brenton’s name. That humble and low voice.

Why was Brenton still in the picture?

Terrence gritted his teeth, eyes filling with cold and harshness.

How could she swallow her pride and beg her ex-boyfriend for a factory?

Terrence could not understand or tolerate it!

After getting in the car, Terrence glanced out the window as usual.

Then he realized how stupid his action was and immediately stepped on the gas. The limited edition Bugatti Veyron roared and disappeared in the rain.

Alexa had no choice but to leave the factory after Brenton refused to talk and hung up.

Alexa remembered something all of a sudden and walked along the path to the cemetery on the mountain

Terrence had sent her a text ten minutes ago and asked where she was.

Alexa pondered for a while.

Outside. Taking a relaxing walk,” she replied.
