Chapter 309 We Are Here to Take You Back
"The residence has been arranged. This way, please," Terrence suggested appropriately.
"Thank you so much."
Scott was quite satisfied with Terrence and patted him on the shoulder in a meaningful manner.
Keyon, who was standing aside all the time, had his smile faded a bit.
Giselle deliberately showed her belly, but no one cared about her at all. Her face darkened.
After thinking for a moment, she said fawningly.
"Dad, mom, Keyon and I have also prepared a residence for you as well."
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Christina casually glanced at Giselle's belly, a hint of disdain flashing through her eyes.
Christina had seen a lot of women who tried to marry the rich by getting pregnant.
Giselle thought she was smart, but everything she did had flaws.
"Ms. Niebergall," Christina spoke politely as if she was trying to maintain Giselle's image. "You and
Keyon are not married yet. There is no need to call me mom so soon. It will do no good for your
reputation if people know about it." "I see..."
Giselle's face turned pale, and she did not dare to be rash again.
It was Keyon who came out to be a peacemaker.
"We are a family. There is no need to argue about where mom and dad are going to stay."
"You are right, Mr. Duran," Terrence responded with a faint smile.
"Can you give me a detailed address, Mr. Ramsey? So I can visit my parents."
Keyon's words instantly revealed the estrangement between him and Terrence.
"Of course." Terrence retorted, not willing to be outdone, "You are always welcome, Mr. Duran."
Sensing that the two of them were secretly competing against each other again, Alexa immediately
spoke up.
"Mom, dad, let's go back first. It's been a long trip. You guys must get tired."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Sure, let's go." Scott nodded and looked at Alexa dotingly.
Not long after, the news of Mr. Duran and Mrs. Duran visiting New York spread.
Almost all of the rich and powerful families were eager to see them and frequently came to visit them.
Alexa and Terrence had been busy accompanying them to meet guests all day long. In the evening,
they finally had a chance to rest.
Alexa entered the room wearily and did not want to move as soon as she collapsed on the sofa. "I am
so tired."
"You have worked so hard today, honey."
Terrence knelt in front of Alexa on one knee and carefully helped Alexa take off her high heels.
"I can do it myself. You don't have to..."
Alexa hurriedly got up, but Terrence insisted. The way he held her feet was as if he was treating a
precious work of art.
"Your ankles are red. Does it hurt? Let me apply some medicine for you," he asked, feeling sorry for
her.
"It doesn't hurt." Alexa replied, "I just feel my legs are weak."
"You should let me know if you feel uncomfortable next time. Don't try to be strong."
Terrence still maintained the same posture and rubbed her legs carefully.
"They will get better after you massage them."
"We still have a family dinner tonight. Are we going to set off now?"
"No need to rush." Terrence carried her to the bed. "It's just a family dinner.
Don't be so nervous."
Then, he threw away the pair of shoes.
"Hey, I still have to wear them tonight!" Alexa exclaimed in surprise.
"I will get you a pair of flats. If those shoes make you uncomfortable, then they shouldn't exist."
Alexa smiled and did not say anything else.
Terrence was still the same as before.
After resting for a while, Alexa felt much better.
Before dinner, Terrence prepared a more comfortable outfit for her. "You got me." He carefully adjusted
Alexa's collar and said, "Don't worry." "I know."
Alexa smiled sweetly. With Terrence around, she was always at ease.
Terrence's parents would also be attending dinner tonight. By the way, this was the first time that their
parents had officially met.
Alexa and Terrence thought that their parents would have a good talk when they met, but the truth was
the opposite.
Alexa and Terrence greeted them before taking their seats. However, the atmosphere in the room did
not ease much.
Scott and Christina sipped their coffee and occasionally muttered with each other as if they had no
intention of chatting with Terrence's parents.
Rebekah gave Jason a look. Only then did Jason speak slowly.
"Mr. and Mrs. Duran, it's really our honor that you have traveled far to be here and meet us."
"Please don't say that, Mr. Ramsey." Christina replied with ease, "We haven't seen Alexa for long. We
also wanted to come here to meet our son-in-law."
Alexa, who had finally relaxed, instantly got nervous again.
"We watch Alexa grow." Rebekah sounded quite protective of Alexa. "Jason and I always treat Alexa as
our own. You can rest assured, Mrs. Duran."
Unexpectedly, Christina shook her head.
She said meaningfully, "No matter how close she is to her mother-in-law, she will always love her
biological parents more." "Mom..."
Alexa frowned slightly and instantly realized that there was something wrong with Christina's words.
"I'm fine here. Don't worry about me."
"You are my daughter. How can I not be worried about you?"
After Christina finished speaking, Scott continued.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alexa, your mom and I always feel guilty because we owe you so much.
Now that we are getting older and older, we don't know how to make it up to you at all."
In an instant, Terrence's vigilance suddenly turned into anger in his heart.
He held the knife hard until his knuckles whitened, but he still looked calm.
"We came here this time to pick you and Damar back." Clank!
Alexa cut the plate with her knife as she felt dizzy.
"Take me back?" Her voice was trembling. "Where?"
"Ice Floral Island." Christina still maintained her elegance, but her eyes were filled with determination.
"You know the condition of your body..."
"I know."
Alexa was eager to cover it up, but she answered too quickly.
"What's wrong with your body?" Terrence asked instantly.
"Alexa isn't well all the time. You should know about that, Terrence."
Christina's face suddenly darkened and her tone was slightly displeased.
Back then, it was Terrence's fault that Alexa was seriously ill and her life was at stake.
Christina had always held a grudge against the Ramsey family because of this matter, so she had
never trusted the Ramsey family at all. If it weren't for Alexa and Damarion still here, they would have
already destroyed Hudson Group.
"Mrs. Duran, we are capable of providing the best medical treatment for
Alexa." Rebekah tried her best to restrain her calmness. "You don't have to worry at all."
Alexa listened to them and her mind was a mess. She couldn't think straight at all.
She clearly felt that Terrence was furious.
He should be very angry now.
After all, she had never mentioned her illness to him, and Terrence might think that she had already
recovered.
But her parents had come to pick her up themselves, and there was no room for her to refuse.
"Alexa, Dr. McMillan is urging us to bring you back. Pack up your luggage and we'll set out as soon as
possible," Scott said.
Scott's words blocked off all of the excuses she could use.
