Chapter 21 Get Married
“I’m searching for her.”
Edwin called his subordinates under the pressure and noticed that the atmosphere was rather
tense.
Terrence stood in front of him coldly without saying anything like an iceberg.
“She is in the cemetery…”
Edwin trembled with fear and looked up, but he found that Terrence had left.
He let out a sigh of relief and found that his palm was actually covered in a cold sweat.
Terrence drove out of the garage, and the car whirled away along the empty road. The roar of the
engine tore through the silent night.
Why did she go to the cemetery now?
Terrence’s face was extremely grave, and his deep-set eyes were quite cold.
At this moment, Alexa slowly walked out of the cemetery, and her clothes accidentally touched the
wound. She had to squat by the roadside and stood up after a long while.
After getting up, she staggered a few steps before she could stand firm.
A Maybach roared down the street and stopped less than 3 feet away from her.
Terrence rolled down the car window. A few shadows were cast on Terrence’s handsome face under
the dim light.
“Get in the car,” he said icily.
Alexa bent down and looked in through the window. She saw the gift box in the front passenger seat.

The expression in Terrence’s eyes became unnatural.
He wanted to apologize to her, but he never had the chance to give her the gift.
Perhaps, this was the time. Terrence moved his lips.
“You have something to do later?” Alexa said. Her eyes were shining. “I’ll leave you to it. I’m going
to the crossroads ahead and take a taxi.”
He held back words that sprang to his lips.
“Get in the car.”
“No, no,” Alexa politely said and waved her hand. “You should go now.”
Terrence gritted his teeth and sighed with a resigned look.
Ale…”
Before he could scold her, Alexa’s phone rang.
“Sorry.”
Alexa unhurriedly took out her phone and answered the call in front of him.
“Hello, Dr. Powell?” she said. “What’s the matter? Now?”
Her face grew grave.
“Now?”
When Terrence heard this, his face immediately darkened.
“What’s the matter?” he asked directly.
Alexa exchanged a few words of greeting with Kieran and then hung up, while Terrence looked
quite gloomy.
“You should go now. I won’t take up any more of your time.” Alexa didn’t answer his question.
“What did he say?”

“There’s something I need to deal with in the hospital. Dr. Powell will come to pick me up.”
“To pick you up?” Terrence said in anger. “Why does he want to come to pick you up?”
“Some business in the hospital,” Alexa explained indifferently. “It should be very urgent. He has
come to pick me up now.”
She would rather let Kieran pick her
Terrence could give her everything she wanted, but Kieran was just a doctor.
Terrence’s face was grave, and he wound up the car window without saying anything. With the roar
of the engine, the car whizzed past Alexa.
Alexa was choked by a cloud of dust that was stirred up by the car, and she coughed violently. When she opened her eyes, Terrence’s car had disappeared without a trace.
Kieran’s car soon arrived. He changed his formal suit and was wearing a set of beige casual clothes, which made him look very gentle.
He opened the car door for Alexa in a gentlemanly manner, smiling brightly.
“Ms. Duran, please.”
After both of them got into the car, Alexa finally asked curiously.
“Where are we heading?” she said. “We’re not going to the hospital, aren’t we?”
“Yes,” Kieran answered. The car was traveling at an appropriate speed. “I told my teacher’s research team about your condition. They are now in New York.”
“Okay,” she answered.
