Chapter 316 Jarrett Appears
Finley's movements paused lightly, but he didn't say anything in the end.
Alexa was like a hedgehog and was defensive.
"I've improved your treatment medicine. I'll do my best to protect you and your child."
"Humph."
Alexa snorted, her eyes full of determination.
"How can I let you have your way?" Her tone was cold. "I won't give birth to the child."
"I don't believe that you will do this."
"How much do you think you know me?"
"You can't bear to do that."
Finley's words made Alexa a little stunned.
For some reason, Alexa felt that this silent weirdo seemed to know her very well.
However, Alexa did not think she had known him.
They were on the way to Ice Floral Island, and it was still early in the morning.
Alexa was not sleepy at all, and she felt so dizzy that she wanted to vomit.
"Give me your phone."
"I'm sorry, Ms. Duran..."
"Forget it," Alexa interrupted him very impatiently.
However, a moment later, Finley silently handed over his phone.
"You can use mine first, five minutes."
Alexa glanced at it but did not take it. Then she laid down despairingly.
"If you're tired, you can take a nap. I will always be at the door. If you need anything, call me at any
time," Finley said.
"Can you go out?"
"Sorry, I can't."
Alexa shut up.
She must be crazy to talk to a nerd.
There was still a long time to go before morning, but Alexa was sober.
Anyway, Finley had just said that if she needed anything, she could call him.
"Dr. McMillan, please give me a notebook and a pen."
"OK."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFinley was not angry at all and quickly brought the things that Alexa wanted.
She sat under the lamp and wrote.
In fact, all she could see along the way was clouds and starlight. Alexa wrote down whatever she could
remember.
In the end, Alexa didn't know what else she could write, so she repeated writing Terrence's name.
She missed him, and the further they were, the more she missed him.
It was not until the plane landed smoothly that Alexa put down the pen.
At this time, Alexa heard a slight movement behind her.
She turned around warily and saw that Finley had already gotten up.
The next moment, a few maids pushed the door open and entered the
room.
"Ms. Duran, please change your clothes. Madam will be attending the banquet with you," said the
person in the lead.
"A banquet?"
Even if Alexa asked, they would not answer her.
Each and every one of them was like a robot, including Finley.
Alexa could only take the dress and go to the locker room.
The dress didn't show her waistline, so others couldn't see that she was
pregnant.
Before she left, Alexa quietly hid the pen she had just used on her.
Christina was already waiting at the door. She was dressed very luxuriously today. It could be seen that
she attached great importance to this banquet.
Alexa walked to her side with an indifferent look.
"Alexa, are you not happy today? Why aren't you smiling when you attend
the banquet with your mother?" Christina asked with a gentle smile.
Her taunt words made Alexa feel disgusted, but under pressure, Alexa
could barely force a smile.
Walking out of the airport, Alexa saw dozens of limited-edition Rolls-Royce waiting for them.
Alexa followed Christina into the car and quickly arrived at the main hall of
the banquet.
Everything was arranged in a very luxurious manner, indicating that there would be honored guests
coming.
"I will take you to see a guest later. You should know the basic etiquette, right?"
"I know."
Christina nodded in satisfaction. She did not reveal the other's identity.
However, when Alexa saw Jarrett get out of the car, her face turned pale.
He was the youngest jewelry merchant in France and also the partner of the Duran Group.
Two years ago, Scott and Christina had intended to marry Alexa to Jarrett.
But Alexa had refused at the time, so they had set their sights on Kieran.
But now it seemed that the honored guest Christina was talking about was Jarrett.
Jarrett was wearing a navy suit, and his gentlemanly aura was particularly outstanding in the crowd.
Alexa was still in a daze when someone suddenly grabbed her arm.
By the time Alexa came to her senses, Christina had already led her to
Jarrett.
"Alexa, greet Mr. Sheldon."
"Nice to meet you again, Christina," Jarrett greeted politely.
Seeing his deep smiling eyes, Alexa just wanted to escape.
However, Jarrett had already shifted his attention to her.
He stretched out his right hand toward her and smiled more brightly.
"Ms. Duran, nice to meet you again."
"So do I."
Alexa only nodded slightly and did not intend to shake hands with him.
However, Jarrett did not mind. Instead, he joked.
"I said that we are destined to be together, so we will definitely meet again."
"Really? I didn't remember you saying that," Alexa smiled distantly.
Alexa was not interested in staying here any longer, so she found an excuse
to hide in the lounge.
Alexa felt like vomiting, but Finley was not by her side at this moment.
She endured nausea and washed her hands several times on the
washstand.
Even though she had not contacted Jarrett, Alexa felt that her hand was
stained with his breath.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, when she looked up, she saw Jarrett in the mirror.
He stood behind her calmly, looking like he was watching a show.
"Are you dodging me?"
"Mr. Sheldon, you thought too much. I'm not familiar with you," Alexa said as
she dodged to the side warily.
"It doesn't matter. We'll be familiar with each other soon."
Jarrett said slowly, a cold light flashing across his shrewd eyes.
"When I learned that you were back, I flew over from France to see you."
As he spoke, he approached her.
Alexa was forced into a corner by Jarrett, unable to retreat.
"I proposed to you three years ago because I really like you."
As Jarrett spoke, he frivolously traced the outline of her cheeks with his
fingertips.
"But it doesn't matter. I am still in love with you now."
Alexa patted his hand away and looked angry.
"Mr. Sheldon, please behave yourself!"
"No one will come up to this floor. If I wanted to do something to you,
would you still have the chance to talk to me like this?" Jarrett said in a
threatening tone.
Alexa curled her lips and said calmly.
"I am still pregnant with my husband's child. You may have misunderstood
something."
Alexa thought that Jarrett would shrink back from difficulties. Unexpectedly, he laughed sinisterly.
"It doesn't matter. We can get married until you give birth to the child."
"Are you crazy?"
Alexa widened her eyes in disbelief. She did not expect Jarrett to say such
a thing.
"Because you are from the Duran family, I can be more patient with you."
Jarrett was getting closer and closer to her as if he was about to kiss her
on her neck.
Alexa wanted to resist, but she did not dare.
