Chapter 233 No Obligation to Spoil Her
"Mrs. Ramsey, are you and Mr. Ramsey well? You have white hair."
Alexa did not want to lose her composure, but Mrs. and Mr. Ramsey had treated her like their own
daughter for so many years. She really could not control her emotions.
"We are both very well." Jason smiled kindly and said, "Hurry up and take a seat. You should be hungry
too."
Alexa nodded and looked around.
Rebekah knew what she was thinking and quickly explained.
"Alexa, if you don't want to see him, I will tell him not to come."
"Mrs. Ramsey, it's okay."
Alexa nodded gently and took a seat with Rebekah.
Not long after, some of the close relatives of the Ramsey family arrived, and the atmosphere began to
become lively.
However, Terrence still did not appear.
Alexa calmly took a sip of hot tea. Alice Wood, who was sitting opposite her, glanced at her with
disdain, her eyes fierce.
As a side branch of the Ramsey family, the Wood family held a lot of power, but it had never been
valued by Jason.
However, the obscure Alexa could not only marry Terrence but also get shares in Hudson Group.
Just thinking about that, Alice was so angry that she wanted to strangle Alexa.
After a few minutes, a cold and tall man walked in from the door.
Alice's eyes instantly lit up as she looked at Terrence with great anticipation.
The atmosphere in the room inexplicably turned cold for a moment. Everyone's gaze fell on Terrence at
the same time, except Alexa.
"Terrence, sit here," Alice politely invited.
But Terrence did not even look at her. Instead, he walked straight to Alexa.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRebekah was still sitting next to her. Alexa did not show her rejection of Terrence.
"You are here," he said in a low voice.
"Yes." Alexa nodded lightly. "Rebekah invited me."
"Why are you calling her Mrs. Ramsey?" Terrence said without hesitation, "Call her mom."
In an instant, the room was completely silent.
Everyone tacitly looked away, pretending that they did not hear what Terrence had just said.
"Terrence!" Rebekah said in a warning tone, intending to ease Alexa's embarrassment.
Alexa smiled lightly and said calmly.
"There is no seat here. You can sit somewhere else."
Then the person sitting next to Alexa instantly got up and went away.
Terrence raised his eyebrows slightly. Under Alexa's stiff gaze, he calmly pulled the chair closer and sat
down next to her.
"Since everyone is here, let's start the feast," Jason said as he raised his glass.
"You came alone? Where is my son?"
"Why are you asking about him?" Alexa frowned and whispered in a voice that only they could hear,
"Don't play tricks on me."
Terrence was not annoyed but instead leaned closer to her with interest.
"You are very beautiful tonight."
The normal sentence became weird when Terrence said it.
The disgust in Alexa's eyes deepened as she coldly glanced at him.
"Shut up.
Terrence did shut up, but the next second, Alexa looked down at the table.
His slightly calloused hand was naturally holding her hand. Feeling the warmth, Alexa froze for a
moment.
"Terrence..."
"I heard you have been very close to Mr. Powell recently?"
Hearing that, Wendy glared at Alice and shouted.
"Alice, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Rebekah's eyes turned cold, and her imposing aura frightened
Wendy quite a bit.
"Alice, apologize to them."
"But I saw everything."
Alice pouted innocently.
"Alice!"
Wendy reprimanded Alice but hoped Alice could tell the truth.
"Yesterday, I saw Ms. Duran and Mr. Powell holding hands shopping."
As soon as she said that, the expressions of everyone present became strange.
They already thought Alexa was not a good woman and only
Terrence treated her like a treasure.
Alexa did not panic or intend to argue.
She looked at Terrence calmly, but he did not turn his head to look at her. It seemed he was about to let
go of her hand under the table.
"You saw it wrongly," Rebekah said unhappily, "Who taught you to say such inappropriate words? What
a disgrace!"
Being criticized by Rebekah, Alice instantly became embarrassed but didn't want to lose to Alexa.
"Auntie, I didn't see wrongly." Alice's eyes were red, and she argued in a wronged manner, "It was
indeed her."
"Ms. Wood is so concerned about me?" Alexa said in a low voice, "I really couldn't tell."
"You're juggling between Kieran and Terrence. What do you want?"
"Alice!" Jason slammed the table angrily. "This is my family dinner. If you want to sow discord, please
leave now!" "Alice is a child who doesn't know any better. Please don't mind her."
"Don't mind her?" Rebekah was even more displeased. "You don't teach her well as a mother. What
obligation do we have to spoil her?"
"Well... Terrence..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlice cried as she looked at Terrence, but she didn't expect him to say this.
"Get out."
"I really saw it."
Terrence's face was so gloomy, and the gray fog in his eyes became denser.
"Get out!"
His tone was filled with anger, and it seemed he was really angry.
No one dared to speak up for Alice, so Wendy had to leave with Alice, embarrassed.
"Alexa, I'm really sorry." Rebekah explained with a gentle expression on her face, "It is not easy for you
to have a meal with us, but they caused a scene."
"Mrs. Ramsey, it's okay."
Alexa smiled sweetly and got up, filling a bowl of vegetable soup for Rebekah, just like the perfect
daughter-in-law she used to be.
Rebekah felt even more upset when she saw Alexa's calm expression.
Alexa completely changed.
Alexa sat down again, and Terrence also brought her a bowl of vegetable soup.
She ignored it and talked to Rebekah.
Terrence did not mind and continued to serve her dishes, filling up her bowls and plates.
Although he did not ask, Alexa knew Terrence believed Alice.
But the next second, the door was knocked, and the person who came in was Kieran.
A self-mocking sneer touched Terrence's face, and he slammed his fork on the table with a clap.
"Sorry to disturb everyone."
Kieran smiled gently and walked toward Alexa under everyone's gaze.
"Why are you here?"
"Something happened." Kieran reached out to Alexa. "Let's go."
Under everyone's gaze, Alexa felt like she had been slapped hard.
She wanted to explain but could not.
"Alexa..." Rebekah looked at her in confusion.
"Mr. and Mrs. Ramsey, I'm sorry."
Alexa quickly explained and left with Kieran without any explanation.
