Chapter 371 Admirable Self-Control
"She didn't hurt me."
"Your alcohol tolerance isn't good. You probably don't want to experience the feeling of having your
stomach pumped," Finley said slowly.
Alexa didn't know what to say.
Finley seemed to be in a rotten mood, and Alexa did not say anything more.
Noticing her submissive look, Terrence hesitated to speak and finally left the hospital with Alexa.
"Will you make a move on Thalia?" Alexa suddenly asked curiously.
Terrence pulled his tie and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Darling, do you think I am a philanthropist?"
Thalia dared to make a move against Alexa, which Terrence couldn't bear.
In any case, it was impossible for Terrence to not teach her a lesson.
"Are you going to plead for her?"
"No." Alexa said rationally, "I just feel it's better to avoid unnecessary trouble. After all, Mrs. Crompton
goes way back with the Ramsey family."
"It's not a big deal."
Terrence didn't care about hypocritical relationships.
He wanted to stroll around the city with Alexa, but Edwin suddenly sent a message saying that Irvin
was in New York.
"I can't seem to shake him off." Terrence's expression turned cold.
"The Niebergall family deals in jewelry." Alexa was well-informed. "This time, they are planning to
display the Heart of Ocean in New York. I'm afraid they will be in the limelight again."
However, Terrence did not take it to heart.
"David is in the hospital. Let's go and see him."
"Okay."
In fact, Alexa did not like to carry out these checks.
The cold instruments analyzed the data and always gave her a feeling that her life was left without
secrets.
However, Terrence looked more nervous than her.
Ever since Alexa entered the examination room, he had been glued to her, never looking away.

"Ms. Duran, we need to collect the electrocardiogram data now. Please lift up your clothes," the nurse
said politely.
"Okay."
Alexa lifted the innermost layer of her clothes and revealed her fair waist and chest.
The slightly cold air touched her skin, and her ears turned a little red.
She was shy when Terrence looked at her.
"Ms. Duran, you need to untie your bra," the nurse reminded kindly.
Terrence sat quietly beside her and waited, seemingly not hearing the nurse's words.
Alexa was a little embarrassed. She lifted her shoulder straps, and her ears were red.
"Don't be nervous," Terrence suddenly said.
"You... go out..." Alexa said. "You need a family with you," he said seriously.
Alexa couldn't refute him and closed her eyes.
"Then turn around! You are not allowed to look!"
A short two-minute examination felt even longer than several hours.
Although Terrence did not touch her, Alexa felt the temperature of his
fingers in her body.
Realizing her thoughts were getting strange, Alexa had trouble breathing,
and her flat belly boobed.
Before the examination was over, Alexa heard a rustling sound.
Terrence walked to the other side and sat down.
The nurse looked at the report and whispered.
"Your heart rate is a little fast. Are you nervous?"
Alexa smiled and beat around the bush. Then she quickly tidied up her
clothes.
The nurse took the report and went out. Only Alexa and Terrence were left
in the examination room.
Alexa walked in front of Terrence. He was still sitting with his back to her,
looking like he had no intention of getting up.
"Aren't you leaving?" Alexa asked curiously.
Terrence coughed, and his ears suddenly turned red.

"You go first."
"What's wrong?" She was confused.
"Don't ask."
Terrence firmly said that and urged Alexa to go out.
Half an hour later, he came out of the examination room. His expression
was not perfectly calm.
"Let's go." Terrence's voice was a little hoarse.
Alexa suddenly realized what was going on with Terrence.
"Mr. Ramsey, you have admirable self-control."
Alexa praised with a smile and pinched his waist vindictively.
"Don't make a fuss."
He said seriously, and his body tensed up.
Terrence was surprised Alexa was so bold.
"Is that so? Were you peeping at me just now?" Alexa smiled charmingly.
"No... Cough, cough..."
When David came over, he just happened to see them doing that.
Terrence obediently stood beside his wife, looking like a good student, and
he was no longer cold or arrogant.
It was not easy for David to hold back his laughter.
"Terrence, your face is quite red." David pretended to not know anything.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? I'll help you make an appointment
with an expert."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt Terrence's sharp gaze.
David leaned towards Alexa as if he wanted her to protect him.
"Although our hospital is good at cardiovascular diseases, our Andrology Department cannot be
underestimated. Mr. Ramsey..."
"David."
Terrence smiled "kindly", which instantly frightened David.
David immediately put on the serious look of a doctor and cleared his
throat.

"Come with me to get the report."
David quickly handed the reports to them and smiled sincerely.
"The data is optimistic. The speed of recovery is unexpected. Overall,
things are going great."
The haze in Terrence's eyes instantly dissipated.
"Okay."
Although it was a simple reply, there was unconcealable joy on Terrence's
face.
Alexa smiled with relief.
When they left the hospital, Edwin sent an invitation.
It was from the Niebergall Group.
"Mrs. Ramsey, Mr. McMillan also received an invitation."
"Huh?"
"Ms. Crompton had it delivered."
"Thalia? What is she trying to do?" Alexa frowned suspiciously.
In Finley's sick room, he stood by the bed.
He watched coldly as the woman in front of him placed gift boxes on the
table.
"What is this" Finley said expressionlessly.
Thalia casually leaned on the sofa, swinging her left leg.
"These are gifts. Can't you tell?"
"I don't need them."
"No matter what, you were hospitalized after drinking my wine." Thalia had
a lollipop in her mouth. "So I should apologize."
"Don't dream of getting information about Alexa from me." Finley gave her a
meaningful look. "Those little tricks of yours are worthless."
"What little tricks?"
Thalia smiled brightly, looking a little arrogant.
"Mr. Ramsey, don't you think your words are a little funny?"
"Get out."
"I like you," Thalia said honestly.
