Chapter 82 Can’t Just Accept It
“Terrence, what’s wrong?” Brynlee pouted. “I’m here to take care of you. Why are you
unhappy?”
“I’m not unhappy,” Terrence explained in a flat tone and then asked, “Haven’t you been
filming recently? You haven’t been on the set for so long?”
“Terrence, I prefer to stay with you,” Brynlee said coquettishly. “Besides, I was really
worried that my dad would forcefully take me back.”
“I’ll send some people to protect you. He won’t dare do that.”
“Filming is very hard. I want to take a few days off.”
“Will the producer have any objections?”
“With you here, they don’t dare object.”
With that, Terrence also did not say anything more.
He found an excuse to send Brynlee away and then began to work seriously.
Terrence reluctantly took a bite of the breakfast that Brynlee had delivered and then made
a call to
let Alexa in.
“Mr. Ramsey, what’s the matter?”
After seeing Alexa, Terrence inexplicably relaxed.
“Are you busy?” Terrence asked her with a smile.
Alexa thought, people in love are indeed different. After seeing Brynlee, he is willing to
smile.
Alexa laughed at herself in her heart.
She flattered Terrence casually, “Of course, the task you gave me is very important.”
Terrence thought, it has only been a few days, and Alexa has already learned this.
“Please make me a cup of coffee.”
“Please wait a moment,” Alexa said.
She then turned and went out.
However, Terrence suddenly stopped her.
“Alexa.”
“Is there anything else, Mr. Ramsey?”
Terrence looked at her.
He asked confidentially, “Have you had breakfast?”
“Yes.”
Alexa answered crisply and a little impatiently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe hadn’t seen the things in front of Terrence just now.
Now Terrence asked this question out of the blue. He must be looking for a chance to
ridicule her.
Alexa was so busy today that she did not have the time to fawn over him.
After making the coffee that Terrence wanted, Alexa hurriedly brought it to him.
But this difficult man did not drink it. He directly pulled her to the conference room.
In addition to Terrence, there were other senior leaders in the company.
Alexa followed him and nervously stayed away from him.
But when she moved away, Terrence moved toward her.
The distance between them was strangely short.
He even turned his head and asked, “Did you have a good sleep last night?”
The smile on Alexa’s face suddenly became weak.
She could even feel that the atmosphere around her immediately became strange.
The other leaders were shocked, but all of them silently shifted their gaze away as if they
were deaf.
Even so, Terrence maintained his previous posture, stubbornly waiting for her answer.
Alexa wondered, is he crazy?
She gritted her teeth.
Alexa then said with a fake smile, “Of course. After all, my salary has been paid.”
“Good.” Terrence nodded seriously and encouraged her. “Keep working hard.”
What did he mean by teasing her as if she were a pet?
If Terrence had not always caused trouble for her, Alexa would have been happier.
Alexa followed Terrence with a flushed face, feeling embarrassed.
After the meeting, Terrence summoned her more frequently.

A
́Alexa spent the whole morning with him. What was worse, she was wearing high heels
today..
Terrence found the abnormality in her heels. When he looked at the documents, he asked
Alexa to
sit on the sofa.
Alexa was still thinking about work very seriously, but Terrence had already got up and
taken the
medicine box.
Before she could figure out the situation, Terrence was squatting in front of her and
grabbed her
ankle.
“Ouch.”
The wound on her heel was suddenly touched. Alexa gasped in pain.
“I’ll deal with it myself.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Terrence raised his hand and threw her shoes into the
trash can.
“Don’t do that.”
This pair of shoes were so beautiful and expensive.
Although they chafed her heels, Alexa still cherished them so much that she rarely wore
them.
Terrence threw them just like that. He didn’t cherish anything.
Before Alexa could finish speaking, Terrence interrupted her.
“Since they don’t fit, there is no need to keep them.”
Her heels were rubbed to the point that blood flowed out, and when Alexa saw this, she
sighed with
annoyance.
This was the price of beauty.
Terrence skillfully helped her treat her wounds and put two Band-Aids on them.
“Wait a minute.”
With that, Terrence got up and walked to the lounge. Not long after, he took out a new
shoe box.
Alexa looked at the low-key and luxurious logo. Without thinking, she knew how expensive
this
pair of shoes was.
Terrence took out a pair of delicate champagne high heels with diamonds and personally
helped her
put them on.
“No, I can’t wear them,” Alexa said anxiously and immediately reached out to take off the
shoes.
But Terrence caught her hands.
He asked in confusion, “Why? Do you not like this style?”
Terrence did not tell Alexa that this pair of shoes was bought according to her
preferences.
Furthermore, he had bought more than one pair of shoes for her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs long as he felt that the shoes were suitable for Alexa, he would buy them and put them
away, only hoping that they would be useful one day.
At that moment, Alexa was extremely hesitant.
“They are too expensive. I don’t need to wear such expensive shoes. Others will think a
lot.”
“Then you should openly admit that your husband bought them.” Terrence casually gave a
solution, and then he said with a serious face, “If you don’t wear these shoes, should I
wear them?”
Hearing him say this, Alexa finally could not help but laugh.
The size of this pair of shoes was very suitable for her as if they were custom-made.
Therefore, he couldn’t prepare the shoes for Brynlee.
But Alexa also did not believe that they were prepared by Terrence for her.
Perhaps it was because he had dealt with countless women and accumulated experience.
Alexa could not accept his gift, and she was immediately anxious to draw a clear line
between them.
But Terrence had already guessed what she wanted to say.
“You don’t have to give me money. With your current salary, you won’t be able to afford
the shoes.
in two years.”
Alexa was stunned.
Her eyes widened.
Was Terrence already beginning to openly mock her?
“Yes, I know.” Alexa became more determined. “But I will persist until I repay all the
money.”
“Okay,” Terrence said very supportively. “I look forward to the day you become a
director.”
It was a kind sentence. How did Terrence make it so strange when he said it?
Alexa curled her lips slightly and left thoughtfully.
At noon, Alexa went to the hospital.
Terrence was busy, but he wrote a recipe and had people make lunch and deliver it to
Alexa.
But Alexa was not in her office.
Terrence sat in her seat with the documents and worked while waiting for her to come
back.
