Chapter 334 Not a Big Deal
Alexa picked a bunch of white roses, and Damarion was attracted by the stall on the other side selling
small animals and chose a few goldfish.
Damarion had never come into contact with such interesting creatures. Even when eating, he was
unwilling to let go of the fish box.
Terrence could not do anything but lovingly fed him.
After lunch, Terrence went back to the company, and Alexa took Damarion to the coastal road.
It was winter now, and the sea in New York had also turned cold.
Alexa held Damarion's hand and slowly walked along the road. The sea was very quiet, and Alexa was
lost in thought.
The people who had been around her were almost gone.
This city had given her a lot of valuable memories, but at the same time, it had also seen a lot of her
separation from the ones she loved.
Perhaps there had been some people that she would never meet again.
It was only when Damarion tugged at her finger that Alexa came back from her thought.
"Damarion, what's wrong?"
"Mom, uncle," Damarion said while pointing to the front. "Uncle has come to pick us up."
"Uncle?"
Alexa was dazed for a moment. But how could Keyon be in New York now?
"Damarion, uncle is not here. You must have been mistaken." Alexa explained patiently.
"But, it really is uncle." Damarion insisted.
Alexa looked in the direction of his finger and saw the familiar figure.
There was Keyon dressed in a black suit leaning against a car. He was quietly looking at them.
"Damarion, let's go back." Alexa immediately wanted to turn around.
"Mom, are we not going to greet uncle?"
Damarion asked in confusion. He didn't understand why Alexa was acting like this.
"Damarion, you've mistaken uncle for someone else."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlexa smiled reluctantly, wanting to take Damarion away.
But Damarion suddenly became stubborn, refusing to leave.
"Damarion!"
Alexa had a rare serious expression as she called out Damarion's name. The little fellow looked a little
frightened.
Damarion looked at Alexa with tears in his eyes. He pouted but did not cry.
Alexa felt a sharp pain in her heart, and a sense of guilt immediately surged up-
Meanwhile, Keyon had already walked over to them.
"Alexa."
Hearing his voice, Alexa's movements slowed down involuntarily.
But when she turned around, Alexa acted indifferent.
She did not reply.
"Uncle!”
Damarion's crisp voice rang out. He already opened his arms, waiting for Keyon to hug him like before.
But Keyon stood still. He looked at Alexa as if asking for permission.
"Can I..."
Staring at Keyon, Alexa released Damarion's hand before he finished the sentence.
Damarion immediately threw himself into Keyon's arms.
Keyon also instinctively relaxed his movements. He smiled sincerely at Damarion.
"Damarion, did you miss me?"
"Yes!" Damarion responded instantly.
Alexa's eyes were dry because of the sea breeze. At the same time, the plainclothes bodyguards
arranged by Terrence also quietly came over to her side.
She shook her head and motioned for them to leave.
But Alexa did not put away her guard against Keyon.
"Why are you here in New York?"
"Something on business," Keyon was as gentle as before, "Did you receive the pack I asked Aron to
give you?"
"Yes," Alexa nodded, "But I don't need it. I won’t go back."
"Okay," Keyon responded softly.
He was not surprised by her answer.
"How are you recently? Do you cough at night? Are your hands and feet still cold?"
"I'm fine."
"That's good."
Alexa answered Keyon mechanically.
Keyon suddenly stopped talking. Silence filled the air.
Damarion presented the little goldfish in front of Keyon like presenting a treasure and babbled sharing
the recent interesting things.
Keyon listened intently, talking back and forth with Damarion.
Alexa stood at the side and watched them like an outsider.
"When are you going back?" Alexa suddenly asked.
The light in Keyon's eyes dimmed.
Keyon had prepared a lot to say, but at this moment, he couldn't utter a word.
"After finishing the work," he finally said lightly, "It shouldn't be longer than two days."
"Okay," Alexa responded coldly.
It seemed that she was not interested in the purpose of his trip at all.
After all, she did not have a good memory of Ice Floral Island.
"Alexa, are you free tonight?"
"Why?"
She was on guard against him.
Keyon's eyes quickly flashed with sadness, but he soon concealed his emotions.
He maintained a smile on his face.
"We haven’t met for a while. How about having dinner together?"
Alexa thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
When Alexa got into Keyon's car, her phone suddenly rang.
She didn't need to look to know it was Terrence, but she felt a little embarrassed to answer it in front of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeyon.
Alexa hung up the phone and replied to Terrence with a message, but soon, the phone rang again.
She frowned slightly and pursed her lips in embarrassment.
A moment later, Keyon, who had been concentrating on driving, suddenly spoke up.
"Take it," he said calmly, "It doesn't matter."
Keyon was compromising. Alexa felt sad.
Nonetheless, when Terrence called again, she picked it up.
"Where are you now?" Terrence asked straightly.
His voice was full of anxiety.
"We...," Alexa subconsciously paused, "We are with my brother."
No one spoke a word. It was so quiet that Keyon could even feel the silence on the other side of the
phone.
Keyon could have turned the car around and sent Alexa and Damarion back, but his desire of seeing
her surpassed his reason.
It was not easy for the two of them to sit down and talk peacefully. Keyon did not want anyone to
disturb them.
Let alone that the person was Terrence.
Alexa carefully explained the situation to Terrence. Hearing her words, Keyon felt like a shady stranger.
The call lasted five full minutes.
Keyon chuckled.
He pretended to be indifferent. "He is very concerned about you. Is he afraid that I will kidnap you?"
Unexpectedly, Alexa seriously defended Terrence.
"That's not what he meant. He's just worried. He has always been like this."
The more Alexa explained, the more painful Keyon felt.
Realizing that Alexa was cautiously alienating him, Keyon was heartbroken.
"You don't have to be so nervous," Keyon forced a smile, "It's not a big deal."
"It's better to explain it clearly," Alexa said word by word, "To avoid misunderstanding."
"Alexa, you are different now.”
Keyon smiled bitterly. He felt his heart was torn up.
