Chapter 384 Dr. McMillan Has a Crush on Someone
Seeing that Alexa and Damarion were looking at them, Henry reluctantly let go of Christina.
“Let me help you with your luggage.”
“Okay.”
Christina nodded and straightened the shawl.
Alexa let Yareli carry Damarion away and then went to the backyard with Christina.
“Mom, what is going on with you? Are you officially together?” Alexa asked curiously.
Christina explained lightly, “No, we had a fight yesterday. Can’t you tell it?”
Alexa was lost for words.
Alexa thought about how intimate Henry and Christina were and did not see that they had fought.
Alexa shook her head. “No, I cannot.”
“A woman wanted to go on a date with Henry, and I caught them. Although he refused, I was unhappy.” Christina said lazily.
After finishing speaking, Christina raised her hand.
Alexa saw the dazzling diamond ring and was shocked.
“Henry bought it today to apologize. He followed me all the way to New York. What a stubborn man!” Christina smiled easily.
Alexa quietly listened to Christina show off. Then Christina suddenly changed the topic, and her expression became serious.
“What happened between you and Terrence?”
As soon as this matter was brought up, Alexa’s face darkened.
“He has something to hide from me. This is not the first time this has happened,” Alexa grunted.
“Did he cheat on you?”
“No.”
Alexa was certain about this.
Christina said skillfully, “It’s no big deal. Every couple will fight. And they will make up after the misunderstanding is cleared. And I think Terrence is a good man.”
“You are so partial to him.”
“I have seen him care about you.”
Christina smiled elegantly, and her tone was serious.
“Alexa, that kind of deep affection cannot be fake. I often think that if something really happens to you, then Terrence will be the most painful person.”
Hearing Christina say this, Alexa became even more depressed.
Alexa regretted moving to the Duran’s home. She wanted to have a good talk with Terrence, but he guarded against her like she was a thief, afraid that she would know something.
Now, Alexa could not even get through to Terrence.
“Forget it. We’ll talk about it later.” Alexa gave up.
In fact, she was still angry at Terrence.
Alexa and Christina entered the living room together. Henry was sitting on the sofa and carefully holding Damarion.
When he saw Alexa and Christina, he forced a smile at them.
“Sorry, I have never held a child before. Is he comfortable?”
Henry carefully adjusted his posture so that Damarion could lie in his arms.
Henry’s neat suit had been dreadfully ravaged by Damarion.
“Damar!”
Alexa shouted anxiously and quickly went over to take Damarion.
It seemed that it was not a good thing for her son to be a born socializer…
Alexa blushed with shame and apologized with a proper attitude.
“Henry, I’m sorry. Damar is too naughty.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Henry calmly tidied up his clothes and smiled warmly.
“Damar is very cute.”
“Damar is close to you.” Christina casually mentioned, “Damar is afraid of strangers, but he is not afraid of you.”
“It means that we are a family.” Alexa was perceptive and tried to set up Christina and Henry.
“Alexa…”
Christina pouted and smiled.
The night was peaceful.
The next morning, the Duran’s home was bustling with noise and excitement.
Christina used the excuse of relieving Alexa’s boredom and invited the surrounding ladies over.
Alexa was not of the same age as them, so she had nothing to talk about with them.
But because Alexa was Terrence’s wife, many noble ladies wanted to make friends with her and get some resources for their husbands.
Alexa was in a bad mood, so no one dared to speak rashly.
However, Alexa did not object to such entertainment. After all, her mother seemed to be very happy.
Christina had never had such an experience before and even felt that it was novel.
She and Henry chatted and laughed. Everyone was cheerful.
Alexa sat aside and spent her time on her phone aimlessly.
Christina took the time to glance at Alexa and said straightforwardly.
“If you want to call, then go ahead. Stop rubbing against your phone.”
Alexa was speechless.
She was embarrassed to be caught by her own mother on the spot. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Who says I’m going to make a call?” Alexa stood up in low spirits. “I’ll take Damar to the yard.”
Damarion was having a good time with those ladies and was not willing to go with Alexa at all.
Alexa had to go to the yard to bask in the sun alone.
It just so happened that someone paid a visit.
Finley stood at the door with a gift, looking very devout, and the person beside him…
Alexa’s eyes lit up, and she opened the door.
“I heard that Christina came to New York last night. I’m here to see her.”
Alexa casually answered, “Yes. She’s playing cards in the living room. Don’t talk to her about academic issues.”
“Okay.”
Alexa let Finley in.
When Terrence wanted to come in with Finley, Alexa stepped forward to block the door.
“What are you doing here?” Alexa said faintly angrily, “It’s not enough for me to go back to my mother’s home. Do you want to lock me up in Jade Bay?”
“I didn’t mean that.” Terrence smiled, “I came to see you, Damar, and Christina.”
Terrence was in a suit, but he had dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he did not have a good rest last night.
Alexa immediately softened.
“Can we talk now?”
“I’m sorry, Alexa.” Terrence changed the topic. “I have to go to the company later, so can we talk about it later?”
Alexa took a deep breath and suppressed her displeasure.She frowned and replied, “Okay!”
“The weather has been changeable recently. Take good care of yourself.”
There was no anger on Terrence’s face, and he was gentle. “It’s cold, so make sure to bundle up. I’ll get someone to send over the new fashionable dress.”
“No need.” Alexa stubbornly avoided Terrence’s gaze. “I’m not cold.”
“Alexa…”
“Alright, hurry up and leave. I don’t want to delay your business,” Alexa said impatiently.
With that, Alexa closed the door and left without looking back.
Terrence watched Alexa’s back and knew that Alexa had completely disappeared from the courtyard. Only then did he drive away reluctantly.
On the way, Edwin called.
“Mr. Ramsey, it has been arranged.”
“Well, don’t make any mistakes.”
Terrence’s gaze was cold to the bone.
The Duran’s home was still lively.
Finley attracted everyone’s attention as soon as he arrived.
Christina couldn’t wait to call him over as if he were her son.
“This is my student.” Christina said warmly, “He is a medical expert. He is both talented and handsome.”
The rich ladies all looked at Finley with smiles.
Alexa suddenly had a bad feeling.
As expected, in the next second, Christina added.
“But he is unmarried.”
“It just happens that my daughter is also unmarried. Dr. McMillan, do you want to get to know each other?” someone asked.
Finley probably had never dealt with such a difficult problem. Alexa’s eyelids fluttered, and she stepped forward to help him out.
“Mom, Dr. McMillan has a crush on someone.”
