We Will Collide Someday by Scarlett Sanchez

Chapter 44 Can You Treat Me Humanely?

“Alexa, I’m sorry. Can you stop crying now?”

Terrence’s tone, no longer overbearing, sounded as if he was making a request uneasily.

He thought, her wound must be very painful now.

He, who had come back to his senses now, regretted ever treating Alexa like that.

“I’ll apply medicine for you.”

“Terrence, why are you always like this?” Alexa wept. “I try to explain and prove myself every time you question me. But it turns out that all my efforts were in vain.

“I never get in the way of you loving Brynlee.

“And I was resigned to it when you divorced me.

“But what did I get in exchange? Terrence, I wonder why I stoop this low.”

Alexa seemed to have calmed down a bit after all the words poured out.

Meanwhile, Terrence just listened quietly as he applied medicine for her. Then, he wrapped up the wound.

All the while, Terrence acted as if there wasn’t a note of hysteria in Alexa’s voice at all.

That made Alexa’s heart sink.

“What do you want from me then?” Terrence asked her.

Alexa thought, what do I want from him?

Alexa pondered over the sentence and thought, I feel a fool now, with him appearing that nonchalant.

“All I want is to be treated humanely. Am I asking too much?”

Terrence pondered over her words, be treated humanely…

Terrence was pierced to the heart with anger. Then he retorted.

“You haven’t been treated humanely during the two years in the Ramsey family?”

But Alexa didn’t reply. Instead, she lowered her head to tidy up her clothes a bit.

There was no answer to his question.

Communication with him was just useless.
