Terrance and Alexia novel Chapter 305

Chapter 305 Make Up for Her With Me

Kieran did not answer her question.

Instead, he said to himself, “Today is exactly eight years since she died.”

She?

Before Alexa could react, Kieran picked up the bottle next to him.

She quickly snatched the bottle away, only to find that the glass shards on the side were stained with dried blood.

In the blink of an eye, Alexa could not help but frown.

Enter title…

“Don’t drink anymore. What do you want to do to yourself?”

“She was doing just fine. Suddenly, somehow, her body began to fail rapidly.”

Alexa was stunned and listened to him speak.

“At that time, I chose to learn medicine to treat her, but I still failed to save her.”

Kieran slowly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes full of pain and regret.

‘When I pick up the scalpel, I’m omnipotent in many people’s eyes, but I’m nothing…”

His voice gradually weakened.

“That night, she was lying in the bed in the ICU, and she was so skinny. I held her in my arms, feeling her body turn cold bit by bit…”

The room was silent for a long time. Finally, Alexa moved her lips with some difficulty.

“Are you… OK?”

She carefully raised her hand and placed it on Kieran’s shoulder, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

“You have already tried your best.”

“I’m sorry.”

Kieran met her gaze guiltily.

“From approaching you till sending you out of New York… It was all because…”

“It was all because you wanted to make up for her with me?”

Alexa said every word he wanted to say accurately, and Kieran stopped talking in an instant.

However, there was no displeasure in her eyes.

“I know. I know it all.” Alexa’s tone was utterly gentle. “So, thank you.”

“I have nothing to be thankful for. People like me…”

“Enough.”

Alexa interrupted him in time, stood up, and reached out to him.

“Get up. I’m going to the kitchen to cook.”

Kieran was a little stunned, and he gawked at her.

“You … are not afraid of me?”

“Why should I?”

“I have never dared to tell you that I’m suffering from manic depression. I’m sorry.”

‘Why should you be sorry?” Alexa asked rhetorically in succession, completely confusing Kieran.

‘Everyone has their own secrets. You are allowed to have secrets.”

Kieran curled his lips slightly, held her hand, and stood up.

Seeing that he was fine, Alexa was a little relieved.

“Take a rest. I will call you when the food is ready.”

“Let me,” Kieran said instinctively. “You probably aren’t used to cooking. I’m worried that you’ll get hurt.”

‘I won’t,’ Alexa subconsciously blurted out. “I learned a few things from Terrence. I’ll be fine.”

In an instant, the glimmer in Kieran’s eyes disappeared.

He forced out a bitter smile and said, “Alright then. I’m going to take a shower.”

Soon, the sound of water came from the bathroom.

Kieran stood under the shower, allowing the cold water to overwhelm him.

His body was almost covered in wounds. The blood trickled down his body until it was thin.

It was a shocking scene to see in the dim bathroom.

In the past few days, he had been suffering from manic depression, and he hated the light. Therefore, the lights had been basically off.

Yet when Kieran changed his clothes and went out, the living room was bright.

Alexa put the last dish on the table and then filled two plates of pasta.

“Perfect timing. Dig in. See whether I can be a cook or not,” Alexa greeted him warmly.

Kieran sat down in front of her and looked at the dishes in front of him carefully.
