Chapter 367 Rosse Makes Insinuating Remarks
Terrence used an extremely calm tone to say such terrifying words.
Alexa only lightly curved her lips and smiled at him.
That bouquet of white calla lilies had been ravaged by her.
In fact, Alexa also hated these intrigues, but those people were blind enough to provoke her.
After returning from the cemetery, they received a dinner invitation from Rosse.
Alexa did not refuse and asked Terrence to accept it.
Rosse had a deep relationship with the Ramsey family. As a junior, Terrence had to show some respect
for her.
The dinner was set up in Sunbeam Restaurant in New York, and Thalia and Rayan were also present.
Rosse had been a strict senior. With her around, Thalia completely
restrained her ostentatious attitude.
When they met, the atmosphere was inexplicably peaceful.
It seemed that the scene in the cemetery just now had not happened at all.
"Thalia, go and invite your parents over."
"Okay, Grandma."
Alexa politely sent the gift, but Rosse only glanced at it indifferently and then asked the servant to take
it.
Before Alexa could speak, Terrence pulled her closer and introduced her to Rosse voluntarily.
"This is my wife, Alexa."
"Yes, I know."
Rosse nodded perfunctorily and sized Alexa up as if she was looking at a commodity.
"I can sense illness in her body. I'm afraid she can't give birth to any children."
Alexa saw the disgust in Rosse's eyes, but she did not take it to heart.
However, Alexa sensed the change in Terrence's aura.
"You don't have to worry about it." Terrence gave a fake smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time. How
are you? I heard that you just had an
operation some time ago. After all, you are an old lady now. You have to take extra care."
"I'm fine."

"You two should have a good chat."
"Mrs. Crompton, you are very concerned about the Ramsey family."
"Thalia will marry into the Ramsey family sooner or later. I naturally have to be extra careful."
"Thank you, Grandma."
Rayan smiled gently and took the initiative to pour coffee for them.
Rosse was very satisfied with Rayan and there was praise in her tone.
"I have been teaching Thalia how to do her job as a good wife. I believe she
will definitely become a very good wife."
Rosse was making insinuating remarks. Alexa smiled without saying a word and took a sip of hot
coffee.
Sure enough, Rosse's spearhead soon aimed at her again.
"Ms. Duran, your behavior seems to be very casual. After all, you're
Terrence's wife. This won't do."
Under the table, Alexa silently pressed down on Terrence with her hand.
"Excuse me?"
"I heard that your son took your surname?" Rosse scoffed, "What will others
think of Terrence since you did that?"
When Terrence heard this, his face sank even more.
Alexa could even feel that his patience had reached its limit.
"Don't think that I am too direct. I only said these words because our
families are old friends. I was being honest with you."
"Well, I believe that you said it for our good." Alexa smiled politely. "But we hope that you can stay
away from others' business."
"You..."
"Damar is the child of me and Terrence. We can let him take the surname from anyone of us as we like.
No matter what, it can't change the fact that
we love him."
"It is simply sophistry. It is really a misfortune for the Ramsey family to have
a daughter-in-law like you."
"I am only married to the love in my heart. I am not a vassal of a certain
family."
Alexa answered perfectly, but Rosse looked embarrassed.
"I really did not expect that you would have a sharp tongue."
"I just treat myself as a normal person." Alexa glanced at Thalia, who was walking over from a
distance. "I think your granddaughter will definitely do
better."
After her son and daughter-in-law came, Rosse did not say anything more.
However, the atmosphere of this meal was indeed strange.
Terrence's face was cold and he almost did not eat anything.
And these dishes did not suit Alexa's taste, so she seldom ate anything.
Terrence certainly did not want Alexa to be bullied here. Several times, he wanted to take her away, but
Alexa signaled him no with her eyes. Noticing that something was wrong, Thalia's parents did not dare
to move
their forks.
Rosse, however, did not mind and kept putting food on Terrence's plate.
"Terrence, Rayan will rely on you to promote him. Thank you."
Terrence smiled without saying a word and glanced coldly at Rayan.
There was already a flaw in his cold expression.
"Mrs. Crompton cares so much about you." Terrence said indifferently, "You
must not fail to live up to her expectations."
"Thank you for your advice, Terrence. I still have to learn from you about
running the company."
"I have nothing to teach you." Terrence directly embarrassed him. "I don't know how to play these
tricks."
Rayan looked awkward. James Crompton, Thalia's father, immediately
mediated with a smile, but Terrence did not buy it. After dinner, Rosse could not wait to call Terrence to
the garden.

Alexa stayed in the living room, and Thalia also stayed there.
"If there is anything to make you unhappy today, I shall apologize here first."
There was a sly smile on Thalia's pure face.
"After all, my grandmother cares about Terrence very much, and she sees
him as her real grandson."
Alexa was sitting at the side in a dignified and generous manner,
completely ignoring Thalia's words.
"Alexa, do you know why Hudson Group's board of directors is so
dissatisfied with Terrence?"
"Heh."
Alexa gave a meaningless sneer, and Thalia kept saying.
"It's actually because of you. Terrence wasted so much time on you that
Hudson Group suffered a huge loss."
Thalia said seriously, but what she got in return was a sneer from Alexa.
"Thalia, you are so naïve that I find it funny."
Alexa's aura was so strong that it could not be ignored. Even Thalia was a
little dumbfounded.
"What do you mean by wasting too much time on me? We are husband and
wife, and no one else is qualified to judge us."
"But Hudson Group is the property of the Ramsey family after all..."
"Business is a coexistence of risks and opportunities." Alexa raised her chin
coldly. "It's just a short-term fluctuation. We have plenty of ways to win
more opportunities."
Thalia did not expect that her provocation would not affect Alexa at all.
"Alexa, you have a good state of mind."
"Ms. Crompton, so do you." Alexa retorted, and her cold eyes suddenly locked on Thalia, "You can
openly interfere in other people's marriages and pretend to be innocent in front of me. You are the real
master."
Thalia felt embarrassed and dodged in panic.
And at the same time, Rosse directly said to Terrence.
"Terrence, I heard that she was sick and did not have much time left. You
are still young and should not waste your life on this woman."
