Chapter 183 Tears of Joy
“What do you know?”
Terrence spoke unhurriedly as his gaze became less malicious.
“Alexa, if you want to know, go ask your brother.”
Brenton’s words made Alexa more and more panicked.
“What is it?” Alexa asked anxiously. “What are you hiding from me?”
“You would rather believe him than me?” Terrence asked coldly. “You believe whatever he says?”
“Tsk,” Brenton sneered. “You are already scared, Mr. Ramsey?”
Terrence ignored him and looked straight into Alexa’s eyes.
“I didn’t lie to you, and I didn’t need to lie to you,” Terrence said slowly and clearly. “No one can make
me do or say things against my own will.”
“Stop pretending.” Brenton continued to fan the flames. “It’s easy to say. What’s the point of fake
sincerity?”
“Brenton, since you dare to mess with me,” Terrence sneered, “then you’d be able to bear the NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
consequences.”
“Just wait and see.”
Brenton had cards up his sleeve and was not worried at all.
After Terrence finished speaking, he left right away. And the ward immediately fell silent.
“Don’t make things difficult for yourself,” Alexa said worriedly. “There’s nothing Terrence
wouldn’t do when he decides to go crazy.”
“Alexa, I will never back down,” Brenton said firmly. “I’m willing to do anything for you.”
Alexa looked embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.
T Now the situation was a complete mess, but there was nothing she could do.
Brenton didn’t leave, but not long after, an uninvited guest came.
Tania entered the ward with a straight back. She fixed her eyes on Alexa with a faint smile.
“I’ve been wondering why Brenton rarely comes home lately,” Tania said arrogantly as she adjusted the
ornament in her hair. “So he’s with Ms. Duran.”
Brenton stood next to Alexa and said in a flat tone.
“Why are you here?”
“Why? Can I not come?” Tania’s eyes darkened. She scolded, “Brenton, have you forgotten what
you’ve promised your father?”
Brenton frowned, looking a little impatient.
“Let’s talk about this at home. Don’t make a scene in the hospital.”
“You think I’m making a scene?” Tania suddenly raised her voice. “I have never interfered in your
affairs. But now you’ve gone too far!”
Alexa silently listened. She knew that Tania was complaining about her.
As expected, Tania spoke to Alexa the next second.
“Ms. Duran, help me talk some sense into Brenton. He doesn’t listen to me now.”
“Mom…”
Brenton called in a low voice. He simply didn’t know what to do with his mom.
“You’re our family’s only hope now. Stop going down the wrong path, or what should I do?”
“What are you saying?” Brenton said unhappily. “What do you mean by the wrong path?”
Tania snorted and glanced at Alexa.
“Ms. Duran.”
“Mrs. Darrell.”
“I’ve always been against Brenton dating you. If you truly care about him, let go of him. Otherwise,
you won’t want Mrs. Ramsey to know about this,” Tania threatened arrogantly.
“Alexa and Terrence are divorced. What’s this to do with the Ramseys?”
“Shut up!” Tania growled angrily. Then she continued, “I don’t want you to hate me, but I absolutely
won’t allow such a thing to happen.”
“Mom, what do you know?”
Tania glared at Brenton fiercely. Then she took out a jewelry box from her bag and threw it onto
Alexa’s bed.
Brenton’s expression immediately darkened. He stared at the box.
“Ms. Duran, open it and take a look,” Tania said sarcastically. “See if you like it.”
Alexa stiffly picked up the box and slowly opened it. There was a shining diamond ring inside.
“Who allowed you to take it?” Brenton glared at Tania spitefully “This is my own business. It has nothing
to do with you!”
“How can it have nothing to do with me?” Tania was livid with anger “Are you going to propose to
her behind my back?”
Hearing this, Alexa immediately closed the box and put it quietly next to Brenton.
Brenton pursed his thin lips and did not say another word.
“I’m telling you, it’s impossible!”
“Get out.”
“We will never allow such a woman to be our daughter in law!”
“I told you to leave!”
Brenton growled angrily, and the ward immediately quieted down
Tania was so shocked that her lips trembled. Then she stormed out of the door resolutely.
Alexa looked at Brenton quietly for a while and finally asked softly
“Are you okay?”
Brenton subconsciously turned around to avoid Alexa’s eyes.
“So funny, isn’t it?”
“No.”
“Don’t mind her,” Brenton said coldly. “I don’t.”
“Let’s talk.”
Brenton was stunned for a moment and turned to look at the ring box on the table.
“I bought this ring three years ago.
“I wanted to give you a surprise on your birthday…..
“It should be out of fashion now.”
“It’s all over,” Alexa said emotionlessly. “We should move on.”
Move on?
How could he just move on like this?
“If I had begged you to stay with me that day, would you have left with me?”
The ward fell silent after Brenton’s words.
Alexa looked at him with bright eyes and didn’t know how to answer that
Brenton laughed and changed the topic.
“You can answer me later. We have plenty of time.”
Brenton straightened his clothes and walked to the door calmly.
T
“I am going to the company for a meeting now. I will come back as soon as possible.”
Alexa was like a puppet. She kept her head down and played with her fingers
“Keep that ring. That day left me with regrets, and I want to make up for them.” Brenton paused and
said, “I actually have something to tell you that day.”
“What did you want to tell me?”
Alexa looked up at him calmly. Her waist length hair was gently hanging down behind her.
Brenton’s smile became wider as he tightly gripped the door handle
“Happy birthday.”
After saying that, he pushed the door open and left with slight hesitation. He soon disappeared.
Hearing the sound of the door lock clicking, Alexa finally felt herself again.
She clutched at the quilt and sobbed like a child.
Brenton… Why was he so tolerant?
When Terrence came in, Alexa had stopped crying.
But when he saw Alexa, her eyes were still red.
“You cried?”
Alexa raised her hand and wiped her eyes hard. She denied it in a deep voice.
“No. Why are you back?”
Terrence did not answer her. Instead, he walked straight to the cabinet and picked up the ring box.
When he saw what was inside, Terrence smiled indifferently.
“So they are tears of joy.”
