Chapter 272 We Are Very Familiar With Each Other
"You are so skillful. Do you often practice it?"
Terrence stared at Alexa with a faint smile. But Alexa pursed her lips and pushed him away.
"What does it have to do with you?"
"You tell me. What does it have to do with me?"
Terrence did not let go and pulled her back into his arms.
Alexa felt a slight chill on her neck and subconsciously shrank back.
His fingertips slowly wandered around her neck. When he saw the hickey on her skin, Terrence chuckled.
"Are you going to go out like this?"
Realizing what Terrence was talking about, Alexa was embarrassed. The blush on her face, which had finally subsided, came back again.
Terrence let go of her and chose a silk scarf for her to cover the hickey on her neck.
"It's better now." Terrence curled up his lips into a grin in satisfaction.
"Thank you."
"You don't have to be so polite to me, Mrs. Ramsey."
"Who is Mrs. Ramsey?"
Alexa reminded him seriously. She tidied up her collar to ensure that the hickey would not be discovered.
Then, she left the room first.
Vision Group staff were already waiting downstairs. When Alexa appeared, all the media turned their cameras on her at the same time.
"Ms. Duran, what is your schedule next?"
"It is said that you came to Dallas to meet Mr. Ramsey. Can you tell us something about it, Ms. Duran?"
Hearing their ridiculous questions, Alexa narrowed her eyes slightly. She was obviously a little unhappy.
Just as Aubrey was about to ask the bodyguards to clear the crowd,
Alexa suddenly faced the media camera.
"I came to Dallas for business. As for other questions, no comment."
"Ms. Duran, have you met Mr. Ramsey?"
The reporters didn't give up. Alexa directly ignored them and got into the car.
There was a fraught and uncomfortable silence in the car.
Aubrey immediately said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Duran. It was my fault. I'll disperse them immediately."
They didn't come before but appeared now and tried to block her at the entrance of the hotel.
This was not only annoying but also very stupid.
"I want to know who sent them here."
"Yes."
After answering, Aubrey cautiously glanced at the rear-view mirror.
"Ms. Duran, Hudson Group's car has been following us."
"It doesn't matter."
Alexa fixed her eyes on the screen of her laptop all the time. She seemed not interested in Terrence at all.
However, Aubrey had been paying attention to the car that kept following them.
She said calmly, "Ms. Duran, how about we take another path?"
Hearing this, Alexa stopped what she was doing and looked at Aubrey calmly.
When Aubrey met her gaze, she shrank with a guilty look on her face.
"You seem to be very concerned about Terrence's movements."
"No, I just don't want him to disturb you, Ms. Duran."
"You should know what happened last night, right? What did he say?" Alexa smiled.
"He knows that Terrence is in your room."
"I mean what happened at the club last night."
Alexa's voice stopped abruptly, and the car fell into a few seconds of silence again.
Aubrey was a little stiff. Soon, she heard Alexa continue.
"I didn't expect you to report it to them so clearly."
"Ms. Duran, he just hopes that you will choose Mr. Powell..."
"You don't have to explain. You did the right thing."
Alexa finished the conversation with a smile and continued to scan through the documents on the laptop.
When Alexa arrived at the mall, she saw Conley standing at the door.
"Good morning, Ms. Duran."
Conley walked towards her with a bright smile and led her into the mall.
"I heard that you are planning to cooperate with the luxury brand 'Knighthelm' recently. Their chief designer came to Dallas today. I will take you to meet him later."
Conley said it casually, but Alexa had already known what was going on.
"Thank you, Mr. Riley." Alexa smiled and teased, "For making them come here from abroad. I'm really flattered."
"What's wrong with you today?"
Conley frowned slightly and touched her forehead curiously.
"You don't have a fever."
The two of them were just teasing each other, but Terrence saw this scene when he entered.
Why is Conley still here? This brat!
Terrence gritted his teeth silently, there was a storm brewing in his eyes.
All the executives had no idea what had happened. They were confused when they saw Terrence walking toward Alexa.
"What a coincidence."
Hearing Terrence's voice, Alexa turned around and looked at him calmly.
Coincidence... What coincidence?
Although Conley had already reluctantly withdrawn his hand,
Terrence still coldly fixed his gaze on Conley's hand.
"I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Me, too," Conley casually interrupted.
Terrence looked at Alexa and said meaningfully and viciously.
"It's so inappropriate for you to cuddle in public like this."
"It's appropriate. Perfectly appropriate."
Hearing Conley's words, Terrence slightly raised his eyebrows. A
fierce look came into his eyes.
"You probably don't know my relationship with Alexa, Mr. Ramsey."
"Oh? Is that so?" In the blink of an eye, Alexa felt the atmosphere getting tense again.
Conley curled up his lips and wrapped his arm around Alexa's shoulder as he confidently said.
"We are very familiar with each other."
Hearing this, Terrence did not argue with Conley.
