Chapter 33 Someone Rich Backs Me Up
“Why are you avoiding me? Are you afraid of me?” Terrence asked unhappily.
“No.”
“Sit down here.”
Alexa had to obediently do as she was told.
Terrence would always easily lose his temper. Alexa did not know how she had angered him.
Was it because they were not so close to each other?
Alexa was puzzled, but she still quietly kept a distance from him.
Terrence quietly watched Alexa beside him carefully adjusting her seat and silently calmed down.
“This dress suits you very well. You have good taste,” Terrence said, taking the initiative to start a
conversation.
Terrence praised her for no apparent reason, and Alexa was simply too happy.
“No, Mom has good taste. What’s more, this dress was bought by you,” Alexa gave a perfect answer.
“If you like it, just buy more.”
When Terrence suggested, Alexa did not know how to respond for a while.
“No, thank you,” Alexa politely said. She continued, “I have enough clothes, and some are still
new.”
Hearing what Alexa said, Terrence recalled something.
For the past two years, Alexa had been wearing the clothes that she had brought to the Ramsey
family.
They were already outdated, but she had never thrown them away.
How could the little Princess of the Duran family lead such a life?
“Why not? Are you saving money for me?” Terrence sneered at Alexa.
“No,
I’m not,” Alexa said honestly, “because I don’t like being too remarkable, I’m not used to it.”
“What? Not used to it?”
“Yes.”
Alexa lowered her head and played with the corner of her clothes as usual.
“I’d better behave myself now,” Alexa said indifferently. “After all, I had nothing when we got married. If I was too arrogant and remarkable, others would gossip that…”
“What?”
Alexa did not notice that Terrence’s face had gradually darkened.
“Won’t they think that I have someone rich to back me up?”
So was it indeed Alex’s thought?
In her mind, Terrence was someone who could not be found out in public. Right?
Alexa heard Terrence sneering like a playboy.
“Isn’t it true?”
She didn’t know what to say, but if they fought against each other in the Ramsey family, his parents would doubt it.
Alexa hesitated for a moment and smartly changed the topic.
“When do you plan to bring Brynlee to meet your parents?” Alexa asked sincerely. “There seems to be a misunderstanding between them and Brynlee, how about I explain it?”
“Why?” Terrence was extremely indifferent, “Alexa, didn’t you think too highly of yourself?”
Terrence’s words hurt Alexa as if she was stabbed by a knife. Alexa murmured and found that she was not qualified to suggest.
“Just mind your own business. You don’t need to intervene between me and Brynlee.”
“Alright.”
Alexa answered briefly and never mentioned Brynlee again.
Alexa acted as if she wanted to help them. Terrence just didn’t believe it.
How was it possible for Alexa to be so calm and indifferent?
