We Will Collide Someday

Chapter 270

Chapter 270 You Are Not Qualified to Thank Me

Alexa subconsciously shifted her gaze away without answering his question.

Just as the three of them were in a deadlock, the sound of glass shattering suddenly came from the corner not far away.

“Crap!”

As Conley’s expression changed, he immediately flung Terrence away and ran over in that direction.

Soon after, chaotic footsteps began to ring out. It was obvious that the group of people was chasing something.

“Terrence, let me go!”

Alexa frowned anxiously and wanted to rush to Conley immediately.

However, Terrence tightened his grip and stopped her without any explanation.

“Terrence, what are you doing? I told you to let go!”

She didn’t know how Conley was doing, but it was not a good thing since a big commotion was caused.

After a while, Terrence suddenly brought her to a dark room.

“Stay here and don’t run around!”

Seeing this, Alexa finally realized something.

“Terrence, do you know something?”

“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Anyway, I won’t tell you.”

“I’m going to find Conley!”

“Can you listen to me?” Terrence growled in anger. “Just protect yourself.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the noise outside the door suddenly grew bigger as if more people were running over.

“Terrence, are you also looking for Derick?”

He did not respond. At that moment, the door was kicked hard.

Alexa’s heart pounded fast and then she was held by Terrence in his arms. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Terrence’s calm voice sounded above her head. Alexa felt his heartbeat, and the panic just now faded away.

However, the noise outside the door was getting louder and louder, and the people outside seemed to break in very soon.

In the dark room, Terrence’s eyes were so cold.

He stared at the door tightly with killing intent.

It seemed that some people were risking their necks.

After a few more minutes, the footsteps outside the door gradually subsided.

“Mr. Ramsey, it has been dealt with.”

As Edwin’s calm voice sounded, Alexa came back to her senses as if he had been through a lifetime and she couldn’t believe that what had just happened was real.

“How long do you want to hold me?”

Hearing Terrence’s teasing voice, Alexa immediately released her hands with a red face.

Terrence casually adjusted his tie, and his deep eyes returned to usual indifference.

As the door opened, the warm lights in the corridor came in.

Edwin and a dozen well-trained bodyguards guarded the door. After seeing Terrence, they all bowed respectfully.

“Mr. Ramsey, those people just now have been identified. They were sent by Jovan.”

“Sure enough, it’s him.”

Alexa whispered, and Terrence grabbed her hand then.

“It’s okay. I’ll send you back.”

“I’m going to find Conley!” Alexa immediately recovered from the shock.

Terrence did not stop her and went with her.

Alexa easily found their original meeting place. In the luxurious room, a tall figure was leaning against the window and checking the situation.

“Conley!”

Hearing Alexa’s voice, Conley immediately turned back.

“Are you okay?” Alexa asked.

“I’m fine. What about you? Are you hurt?”

“No.”

But Conley was still worried. He immediately stopped his work and held Alexa’s hand to look her up and down.

“What are you looking at?”

“Traces here.”

Conley narrowed his eyes and calmly analyzed.

“There is blood. Judging from it, he must have been stabbed by a sharp object and jumped out from here.”

“But this is the third floor!”

“Yes.” Conley frowned slightly. “I asked someone to go downstairs to take a look. I didn’t find anyone.”

“That’s strange.”

Alexa pondered for a moment. Terrence came over and held her, instantly pulling her attention back.

“Mr. Ramsey, thank you for protecting Alexa for me.”

“You are not qualified to thank me,” Terrence replied coldly. “Protecting her is my responsibility as a husband. It has nothing to do with you.”

“The police are about to arrive here.” Conley turned his gaze back to Alexa. “Alexa, I’ll stay and cooperate with them to investigate. Let someone send you back first, okay?”

“This matter is also related to me. I’ll stay with you.”

Hearing this, Terrence frowned with some dissatisfaction.

“Since you want to wait, then I will wait with you.”

Alexa glanced at Terrence out of the blue, and the situation became a little awkward again.

What was more, Derick’s whereabouts were currently unknown. So

Alexa couldn’t feel relieved.

The police quickly arrived at the scene. After surveying the scene, they took a statement.

After all the procedures were completed, it was already three o’clock in the morning.

Alexa spent the whole day without sleep or rest. Now she was so tired that she could not open her eyes.

Terrence saw her exhaustion and took her to his car without any explanation.

Seeing this, Conley immediately followed.

Conley smiled and said, “Alexa, go to my car. If your parents call me later, I don’t know how to explain to them.”

Hearing this, Alexa immediately sobered up and planned to get out of the car. With a thud, Terrence calmly locked the car door.

“I won’t be at ease if she isn’t by my side,” Terrence said coldly. “If you mind, you can get in my car.”

Conley was silent for a moment, opened the door of the back seat, and got in the car.

Terrence sneered indifferently and drove the car to the hotel with a cold face.

Alexa was uneasy all the way. When Conley received a call, Conley felt as if her heart was about to jump out.

“Hello, Scott and Christina.”

A polite greeting came from the back seat. In the dim car, Conley’s expression couldn’t be seen clearly.

“Alexa is with me now. Everything is fine.”

After the simple call ended, Conley sighed in relief.

“It’s okay. Nothing happened.”

“Yes.”

Alexa’s voice was muffled as she was so exhausted.

Terrence saw the changes in her emotions and had doubts in his heart.

It seemed that there seemed to be a big gap between Alexa and her biological parents.

Terrence did not ask more and steadily drove the car into the underground garage of the hotel.

Alexa followed him and her high heels made a crisp sound on the

ground. When the three of them walked to the door of the room together, unexpectedly, Sadie was waiting alone in front of Terrence’s door with red eyes. It seemed that she had cried before.

“Mr. Ramsey…” She said in a wronged voice, looking like she was about to cry again.

Conley looked at this scene coldly and said in a strange tone.

“It seems that Mr. Ramsey has something to do. Alexa, quickly go back and rest.”

Alexa nodded and directly took out the room card to swipe open the door.

When Terrence saw Conley enter the room with her, his eyes turned icy.
