Chapter 43 Saving Yourself for Him
“Alexa! Stop right there!”
Terrence spoke with a gloomy face, and tension suddenly built up in the room. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Brynlee leaned proudly in Terrence’s arms, a smile on her pretty face.
A woman like Alexa did not call for cleverer methods.
“What are you doing?”
Aloud female voice sounded at the door, attracting everyone’s attention,
Terrence immediately looked much less angry.
Rebekah strode in and glared at Terrence fiercely. Then, she looked at Brynlee in a very unfriendly manner.
“This is the home of my daughter-in-law and son. What are you doing here?”
Brynlee immediately put on a pitiful face again and nudged against Terrence’s chest timidly.
“Mrs. Ramsey… I’m just here to visit Alexa.”
“Really?” Rebekah asked with a disgusted look in her eyes. “Do you need to dress like this?”
Brynlee looked down at the slightly revealing nightgown on her, and her entire face flushed.
“A lowly person like you is indeed not seen often.”
“Mom, aren’t you going too far?” Terrence’s face was dark, and he immediately stood up for
Brynlee. “I asked Brynlee here.”
“I am going too far?” Rebekah smiled. “Who is going too far? I raised you better than this!”
“Mrs. Ramsey, please do not blame Terrence. It’s all my fault.”
“What right do you have to tell me what to do? Get out of here immediately.”
“Mrs. Ramsey, it’s already so late. How could you ask me to leave?”
Brynlee tried her best to hold back her hatred.
She thought, this damn old woman is really hard to deal with. Can’t she understand human language?
Rebekah’s patience ran out completely, and she smacked Brynlee’s face hard.
Even Alexa was stunned.
In her impression, although her mother-in-law was sometimes very strict, she would definitely not lose her mind, but Alexa really did not expect that Brynlee could actually force Rebekah into doing this.
“Mom!” Terrence tried hard to suppress the anger. “If you want to hit somebody, just hit me. Don’t vent your anger towards Brynlee.”
“Do you think I won’t hit you?” Rebekah sneered. “Brynlee, get out of here immediately. Otherwise, I will take a picture of you and post it online. Your fans and investors probably don’t want to know that you are a homewrecker, right?”
“Terrence…”
“It’s useless for you to beg him. If you beg Alexa, it might be helpful, but only if she forgives you.”
Brynlee would rather be killed than beg Alexa.
With a red mark on her face, Brynlee wrapped herself in the coat. Before she left, she did not forget to maintain the little dignity left with her.
“Terrence, I’m going home. See you next time.”
Terrence said apologetically, “Sorry.”
“Alright.” Rebekah waved her hand. “Quit your acting here. If she doesn’t disappear in front of me forever, Terrence, you can get out with her.”
Brynlee gritted her teeth and left ignominiously.
“Mom, what are you doing?”
“Alexa, come here.”
Seeing Alexa come over, Terrence took a step to the side with a disgusted expression and immediately kept his distance from her.
His movements were extremely obvious, and it was impossible for Alexa not to see.
However, Alexa wasn’t affected and just looked at Rebekah with clear eyes.
Rebekah took out an envelope from her handbag and handed it to Terrence.
“What is this?”
“Gavyn came to me today.” Rebekah’s face darkened. “He gave me 300 thousand dollars in exchange for you two getting divorced.”
When Alexa heard this, her face instantly paled.
“Rebekah…” She bit her lips, not knowing what to say.
“Terrence, what the hell are you doing?” Rebekah berated Terrence.
Terrence opened the envelope. It was indeed a check signed by Gavyn.
Although his expression did not change, a strange emotion surged in his heart in an instant. Terrence even felt like killing someone.
Gavyn… How dare he?Terrence thought.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and quietly balled up the check.
“I got it.”
“!ust got it? I want you to take action.”
“Sure.”
Terrence agreed very readily, and Alexa and Rebekah were both surprised.
“It’s getting late. I’ll ask the driver to send you back.”
“You better not disappoint me.”
“Got it.”
After sending Rebekah off, Alexa heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as she was about to walk back, Terrence grabbed her forcefully.
“What are you doing?” Alexa trembled in shock.
“Come with me.”
Terrence grabbed her wrist instead, drawing her all the way to the bedroom.
“Was it you?”
“What?”
“Did you send Gavyn?”
“What did you say?” Alexa asked in disbelief. “Why do you think it was me?”
“Since you met Kieran, haven’t you always wanted to divorce?”
“Who am I to use Mr. Walton?”
“You just said that you don’t care to be Mrs. Ramsey, didn’t you?”
Alexa thought, so this is what he’s thinking. Is it not that he wants to divorce and let me take the blame?
“Terrence, what’s the point?” Alexa spoke word by word. “If you can never believe me, then why don’t we just divorce now?”
“Alexa!” Terrence snapped. “Say it again if you dare!”
“Did I say anything wrong?” Alexa asked. “Isn’t that what you’ve been thinking?”
“Yes, yes.” Terrence smiled maliciously. “Can’t you hold your horses before being with another man?”
“Sure, and I will invite you to the wedding. After all, you are my ex-husband.”
Alexa’s words completely enraged Terrence. He directly pushed her down on the bed.
“So, are you saving yourself for him?”
Terrence sounded cruel and mean. Alexa was so scared that she wanted to dodge, but her struggle
was futile.
Terrence pressed her under him tightly. His muscular body suddenly weighed on Alexa, and the pain of the wound spread all over her body. Alexa cried out in a low voice, almost crying out in pain.
“Get off me. You’re pressing my wound. It hurts!”
“Drop the act.”
Terrence coldly pulled open Alexa’s shirt. Seeing the bloodstain on her chest, he immediately stopped his crazy actions.
Alexa heard him curse in a low voice as Terrence immediately left her.
“Wait here. I’ll go find the medical kit.”
Alexa was in so much pain that she could not make a sound. She just lay there quietly and felt the warmth gradually spread.
It was not the first time she had experienced such a thing, but now Alexa hoped that the situation would be worse and more irreparable…
Alexa wondered what would happen if she lost her life now.
Would anyone cry for her? Would anyone remember her? What about Terrence?
Alexa’s imagination ran wild until Terrence returned to her side.
“Sorry,” he said in a low voice, “don’t cry. It’s my fault.”
Terrence’s words turned the pressure and uneasiness in Alexa’s heart into tears, which quickly wet her clothes.
At that moment, Terrence was actually a little flustered.
