Chapter 236 It Is Just a Minor Injury
But she ran too fast and did not pay attention to her feet at all.
Alexa lost her balance, and her ankle suddenly twisted into an ugly arc.
"Ah..."
She growled, and her face turned pale from the pain.
"Terrence, stay away from Damarion!"
Terrence gently patted Damarion's back. The little baby who had been crying non-stop just now quickly
calmed down and fell asleep again.
The water on Alexa's body dripped down, and her ankle was swollen, but she did not say anything.
Terrence looked at her with pity and helplessness. After putting down Damarion, he walked back to her.
Alexa automatically dodged, which made Terrence feel even guiltier.
"Sit tight," he said in a low voice.
Alexa stubbornly pulled out her hand, not wanting him to touch it.
"If you don't want your foot to break, then hurry up and sit down."
Terrence's gloomy voice sounded, and Alexa could only sit down on the sofa.
He knelt down on one knee and gently lifted Alexa's left foot.
"It hurts..." Alexa frowned and a layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Now you know the pain?"
Terrence said a little seriously and carefully checked her injury.
"It's not too serious. Where is the medicine chest?"
It was as if he had been in his own house, and some strange emotions were crazily growing in Alexa's
heart.
"In the coffee table cabinet."
After Terrence went out, he quickly came back with the medicine chest.
Alexa had changed into a clean set of clothes and was sitting by Damarion's bedside drying her hair.
Terrence naturally bent over to her side, skillfully handling the sprain on her ankle.
Damarion was sleeping beside her, and Alexa could only silently endure the pain, not daring to make a
sound.

After the injury was dealt with, Alexa's face was pale.
"Does it hurt?" Terrence asked with concern, "I'll help you massage it."
"No need."
Alexa dodged him with a cold face and limped away.
"You should go."
Terrence did not say much to her and silently put away the medicine chest before leaving the room.
Alexa breathed a sigh of relief in shock, but not long after, Terrence actually came back.
"Why are you still not leaving!" Alexa let out a low, angry, and impatient shout.
However, Terrence did not mind. Instead, he sat down beside her bed.
"Go to sleep." Terrence said gently, "You must be tired."
With him around, it would be strange if Alexa could sleep.
"Get out!" Alexa warily pulled her quilt to cover herself and asked,
"What are you trying to do?"
"I'm not doing anything." Terrence spread out his hands innocently. "I'll watch you fall asleep before
leaving."
"No." Alexa flatly refused, "Hurry up and leave."
"Okay."
Terrence stood up and looked deeply at Damarion.
"How did you get in?" Alexa asked worriedly, "What did you do?"
"I'm leaving."
Alexa didn't reply and could only glare at him.
"I'm leaving." Terrence said lightly, "Good night."
"Okay," Alexa replied indifferently.
After leaving the Duran's house, Terrence drove down the street for a long time. Only then did he find
that he did not seem to have a
place to stay. Duckdale Villa was too spacious and empty, and he did not like it there.
What about Aron's house? But he had just promised Alexa that he would not drink again.
After some struggle, Terrence went to Hudson Group.

Only when he was busy could he temporarily forget some things.
The next day, Alexa was woken up by Damarion's babble.
"Mom..."
Hearing a few tender calls, Alexa drowsily opened her eyes.
"Yes, Damarion."
Getting her response, Damarion was even more delighted, leaning on the edge of the bed as he cried
out to her.
Alexa was so annoyed that she had no choice but to get up languidly.
Just as she was about to hug Damarion like she usually did, Alexa's face suddenly turned stiff from the
pain.
Only then did she remember what had happened last night, and she
could only force out a smile at Damarion in annoyance.
"I'm sorry, Damarion. Mom has a situation."
Damarion innocently blinked his big, lustrous eyes and sensibly quieted down.
"Are you hungry?" Alexa struggled to pinch Damarion's cheek. "Do you want to drink soup?"
As soon as she finished speaking, someone immediately knocked on the door.
"Alexa, it's me."
Hearing the familiar voice, Alexa immediately smiled and said.
"Kieran, come in."
Kieran just came back from the hospital. In order to see her, he had not slept a wink last night.
"Good morning."
Kieran sincerely held a bunch of red roses to her.
"Today's flowers are very beautiful. I thought you would like them, so I bought them."
"I like them."
Alexa happily took the roses, but Kieran asked about the smell of
disinfectant, and his expression became serious.
"Alexa, are you hurt?"
"It is just a small injury. It was an accident."
Alexa wanted to brush it off, but Kieran lifted the corner of the quilt and saw her ankle wrapped in
bandages.

"How did it happen?"
"It's nothing. I just accidentally tripped and fell."
"Why didn't you call me?" Kieran squatted down and loosened the bandages layer by layer.
Although it was just a sprain, to him, it was serious.
"I'll take care of it again."
Damarion saw their interaction and reached out to Alexa.
"Mom, mom hurts."
"Good child, mom doesn't hurt."
Even so, when Kieran helped her change the medicine, Alexa was still in so much pain that she
clenched the sheets tightly. "Alexa, you have to tell me about things like this in the future."
Kieran said seriously, "I don't want anything to happen to you, and I am willing to share your
discomfort."
"Yes." Alexa nodded quietly. "I will pay attention to protect myself in the future."
"You can't go in!"
Hearing the noise outside, Alexa looked towards the door.
Terrence did not say a word and directly pushed the door open to enter.
"Alexa..."
When Terrence saw what was happening, he instantly stopped talking and replaced it with a mocking
sneer.
"It seems you are busy." "What's the matter?" Alexa asked calmly.
Kieran ignored Terrence and continued to treat Alexa's sprain.
"Yes, there is something." Terrence smiled cruelly. "Mr. Powell, you are quite free. It seems you have
found a way to compensate for the breach of contract?"
Kieran stopped applying ointment to Alexa for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
"Dad..."
Damarion's innocent voice suddenly broke the deadlock in the room.
Without waiting for Alexa to speak, Terrence went forward to pick up Damarion and gently replied.
"Daddy is here."
Alexa felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her expression turned extremely sour.
