Terrance and Alexia novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168 I Am Not Your Servant

She bent her legs and hugged her knees, pitifully cowering in

the corner.

“Take the medicine.”

“I won’t eat it!” Alexa suddenly hid to the side with anxiety.

“Are you trying to harm my child? Go away!”

“I won’t harm you.” Terrence grabbed her wrist. “It’s fine. Don’t worry.”

Alexa trembled so much that her panicked little face was

covered in tears.

“Who are you?” She cried, “I don’t know you.”

Terrence became nervous. He took a few steps back and opened

up a distance between him and her.

Alexa felt a little safe and looked up at him while sobbing.

“Look. It’s me.”

She indeed looked at him carefully. After a long time, Alexa

said in a daze.

“Terrence?”

“Yes.”

He answered in an unclear mood, and the tension in his heart

had vanished.

“You have a fever,” Terrence explained, “Take the medicine.”

Alexa sobered up a lot and no longer panicked. She even quickly hid her emotions.

Terrence saw the change in her face, and his heart suddenly

twisted.

As she took the medicine and drank it up, her delicate

eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

“Have a good rest.”

Alexa was now dizzy and had a severe headache.

She subconsciously followed what Terrence said.

After lying down on the bed again, Alexa heard a rustling sound

behind her.

A moment later, Alexa realized that she had fallen into a firm and warm embrace, and her waist was tightly hugged.

“Don’t be like this.”

Alexa nudged him with her elbow, her voice trembling slightly.

“I sweated a lot.”

“That’s good. It means that the fever is gone.”

Terrence’s low voice sounded in her ears. Alexa felt that her

face was burning hot.

“Don’t hold me.” Alexa was still a little uncomfortable. “I’m

very dirty.”

“You are not dirty.”

Alexa did not understand why Terrence suddenly became like

this.

She was forced to stay in his arms, but her body was stiff and

she dared not move.

“How much longer do you want to hug me?”

The words that looked so intimate were spoken seriously by

Alexa.

But she did not expect Terrence to be angry at all and even tightened his arms around her.

“I’ll just hug you. I’ll leave if you fall asleep,” he said calmly.

Terrence must have deliberately come to make fun of her.

Alexa did not dare to voice her anger and forced herself to close

her eyes.

Terrence’s hand moved restlessly and he quietly put his hand

on her lower abdomen.

“What are you doing?” Alexa was shocked.

“Nothing.” Terrence replied calmly, “Are you that afraid of

me?”

Alexa breathed deeply a few times, and her eyes turned red.

Terrence moved his wrist, and he rubbed back and forth on her

clothes with his warm fingers.

“Be good, okay? I promise you and the baby will be fine,” he

whispered.

Alexa ignored him. The medicine soon began to work and she

fell asleep quietly.

Terrence felt the light and steady breath in his arms and

sighed.

For the first time in his life, his dark and deep eyes were dyed

with a touch of guilt.

That night, both of them slept very soundly.

Early the next morning, Alexa woke up feeling weak all over.

Feeling the warmth on her back, she immediately broke away

from Terrence’s embrace as if she was facing a great enemy.

Terrence slowly opened his eyes. His gentle eyes returned to

their usual coldness.

“You didn’t leave last night?”

A cold question came beside him. Terrence glanced over at her

unhurriedly, and there was a smile on his face.

“Of course.”

Alexa watched him get up and get dressed vigilantly, her head

buzzing.

Terrence turned his back to her and said thoughtfully.

“Don’t stare at me with hatred. It was you who didn’t let me

go.”

“How is this possible?” Alexa exclaimed in surprise.

“Don’t you want to deny what you did?”

Terrence spoke indifferently, and Alexa felt a sense of guilt in

her heart.

She curled her lips and walked away as if she admitted that she

was in the wrong.

However, Terrence caught up and grabbed her wrist.

“I’m coming back tonight. Make dinner and wait for me.”

Alexa frowned slightly and pulled her hand out forcefully.

“Brynlee will wait for you. I’m not your servant.”

“Are you jealous?”

“No.”

Alexa frowned and walked away quickly.

Terrence smiled with interest, apparently very satisfied with

her reaction.

When Alexa tidied herself up and walked to the living room,

Terrence just brought the bread.

“Come and have breakfast.”

It was rare for the two to sit together so calmly, but Alexa was

indeed hungry.

She quietly ate breakfast and didn’t notice that Terrence was secretly sizing her up.

“You are alone at home. Do you need someone to accompany

you?”

“No need. What’s more, I’m not alone.” Alexa said lightly.

Realizing that Alexa was talking about the fetus in her belly,
