We Will Collide Someday by Scarlett Sanchez novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456 My Turn to Take You Home "There is an important foreign businessman."

Terrence quickly changed the topic.

Terrence said, "Is there anything you want to buy? I will bring it back for you."

Alexa was a little unhappy with Terrence's method of not telling her.

Alexa knew that Terrence did not want her to worry.

However, this behavior of deliberately hiding it from her would instead make Alexa very uneasy.

Sometimes, Alexa even felt that Terrence had protected her too well and was even unwilling to let her go through a little hardship.

This kind of feeling would sometimes make Alexa feel useless.

"When are you coming back? I'll pick you up."

"It's hard to say. It might take about a week. When I'm not there, you have to take good care of yourself."

After Terrence sent this message, there was no other movement.

Alexa felt empty in her heart.

"You also have to take good care of yourself."

After this message was sent, there was no news of Terrence for two consecutive days.

At this time, Terrence released the document in his hand and rubbed the space between his eyebrows with a gloomy face.

Terrence wanted to get the medicine bottle on the table.

Edwin said with a worried face, "Mr. Ramsey, you should go and rest. It's been two days and two nights."

"It's fine."

Terrence responded absent-mindedly, poured two painkillers, and swallowed them.

"How is the investigation of the branch company going?"

Edwin respectfully presented a document.

"The few new technological projects that have been closed off are all related to Jovan," Edwin calmly reported. "Due to the huge amount of investment, the board of directors has conducted an investigation, but the explanation that Nina gave is that the investment failed."

"They are laundering money."

Terrence said with certainty, and the gloom in his eyes only increased.

"Mr. Ramsey, what should we do next?"

"Collect the evidence and speed up the work. Go back to New York early."

Terrence had no extra emotions on his face.

But Edwin had followed Terrence for so many years, so of course, Edwin could see through Terrence's inner thoughts.

Terrence was clearly worrying about someone.

Alexa had been busy these days, and it seemed that this was the only way to not think about Terrence.

Alexa knew that Terrence's silence must be related to Hudson Group.

But Terrence refused to tell Alexa the inside story. Alexa was still a little uncomfortable.

After the meeting, Alexa met Christina in the office.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Christina nodded at the lunchbox on the table.

"Of course, I'm here to care about my daughter."

After she said this, Christina's expression became serious.

"Yareli told me that you have been at the company for the past few nights."

"I've been a little busy with work recently. I'll be fine after being busy for a while," Alexa smiled.

The two children were taken care of by Rebekah and Jason, so Alexa had nothing to worry about.

"It's a good thing to have your own career, but there's no need to risk your body."

"I know, Mom. I know what I'm doing."

Alexa ate the food with a heavy heart, and it was like chewing wax.

"I heard that Terrence went on a business trip recently?"

"Yes," Alexa nodded and said. "Terrence didn't say when he would be back."

Christina could hear the emotions hidden in Alexa's words.

"Terrence must have been under a lot of pressure recently." Christina suddenly remembered something. She said, "A friend from the psychology department asked me about his recent situation. Terrence has not gone to the doctor for a follow-up for a long time."

"A follow-up? What medicine did he take?" Alexa detected that something was wrong.

"You don't know?"

Christina was very surprised.

Christina said, "It is a medicine that suppresses anxiety. Although it is not a particularly serious mental illness, it is very painful when it flares up."

"I’ve never heard Terrence talk about it."

Alexa was completely out of appetite now.

Alexa immediately put down the plate and fork, changed her clothes, and hurried out.
