Chapter 293
As everyone's eyes coalesced at one point, the music played slowly and Jeremy's emotional voice followed thereafter. "I took for granted, all the times. That I thought would last somehow. I hear the laughter, I taste the tears, but I can't get near you now..." "Oh, can't you see it, Baby? You've got me going crazy..."
"Wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you..."
Like in a movie, their ance-fond memories, with his three years of repression, skimmed through Jeremy's mind. At this moment, his eyes were moist. even his voice was full of emotions with a touch of huskiness
The three years he and Alicia were apart, he felt just like this song. For countless days and nights, he drowned his sorrows with wine and had nightmares. The thoughts of her constantly tormented him. He even dreamed of being with her. As he pined for her, he was bound by sadness and it blocked his way forward.
The song seemed like it was written especially for him. At this moment, his feelings were exactly as the lyrics said. "Wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you..."Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Several times, Jeremy choked up and lowered his voice to a whisper. But there were also a few times he could not help chuckling lightly. On this day, he put on the suit Alicia designed for him, with a burgundy tie that Alicia once paid $300,000 for and tied on him herself. The suit, with its large lapels, was not the trend of the past few years. Rather, it was slightly outdated. Moreover, the sleeves were visibly frayed.
It was the first and only piece of menswear she had ever created in her designing career. She had secretly measured his size, carefully designed it for him, and selected the materials. She didn't sleep for days and nights to make it for his birthday. Hence, Alicia, too, had a deep impression of it
The funny thing was that her design career was completely aborted and ended after her graduation. Over the years, the only piece she had really created was the one Jeremy was wearing at this moment. Not to mention that it was menswear, she wasn't very good at designing at all! Back then, she nearly injured her index finger while embroidering the logo on the collar alone. The logo was two butterflies with the letters Y and L representing 'You' and 'Love'.
She was so naive back then. She went all-in for just a logo.
Before this, her dream was to become a fashion designer, like Victoria at present. It was to open her own studio, then design and showcase her favorite works. All Alicia wanted was excellence. She hoped that she could stand on the international stage one day and hold a grand international show!
However, after so many years, she no longer wanted this dream
She never thought that she, Alicia Blanchard, would one day be so Soaver International that even her dreams would become a luxury, and ended up working every day!
Alicia was not moved by this sang and scene, but still, her eyes were slightly reddened. Not because she was touched, but because of hatred!
The more she used to give, the more she lost over the years. Even if she was currently better and had once thought of turning back, she had learned to look ahead and no longer looked back. Yet, she was ultimately a mortal; she had feelings as well.
While Jeremy's heartfelt song did shake her heart, it was more about hate. Meanwhile, as Frederick looked at the stage, listening to Jeremy's confession and heartfelt duet, his eyes darkened... He did not want to understand the meaning conveyed by Jeremy's lyrics, yet he could clearly guess it.
Frederick never expected the two of them to have such an unforgettable past. Alicia had given Jeremy more than one beautiful first! But in a flash, Frederick realized that Alicia, too, had given him countless beautiful memories...
She had given him her precious firsts. Becauge™of her, he received food from spmeone for the first time, received a hug beforea C business Trip for the first time, was involve I in an argument for the-first timerand had someone secretly take care of his grandmothe forthe first time. Because of her, he fad countless intensely entwined nights!
Suddenly, Frederick realized that the little moments they had together been enough to make his mood scar. For him, every moment with her, even if it was a fight, was worth remembering!
For a moment, it was as if he could somewhat understand Jeremy's undying emotions at this instant. Jeremy must have regretted losing such a treasure.
As Frederick's eyes fell on Jeremy's suit, he frowned slightly. This was her first hand-designed men's suit? The first mark of love she ever gave away? It must be referring to the pair of butterfly tattoos!
Suit?
Frederick didn't think she had such talent! She had given Jeremy so many unforgettable experiences and firsts that it made Frederick insanely CEUCIER
Needless to say, her first kiss was definitely taken away by Jeremy. If she had even given him her precious first time, Jeremy would definitely... At this thought, Frederick couldn't help but ball his fist.
Never! Jeremy had taken most of Alicia's precious first time. There was no way Jeremy would ever get another chance to know how wonderful she really was. Frederick was the most important and special man in her life! Jeremy was nothing!
As Frederick's eyes flickered unobtrusively, a burgundy flash caught his eyes and his gaze landed on it. Atie?
Just then, he recalled what happened at the fashion reception previously.
Back then, Alicia had designed a green fashion suit that was bright and unique. Frederick thought she was after the money and that she was only a smarty-pants.
As he had given his vote to Hannah, they argued Q gn the street after the reception. She even fainted from N ~~ anger because of it. After that day; she was-obviously much more > distatt from him. That was when she Stopped letting him touch her. Atthat time, she even carrie up with some sinister tricks to deal with him.
Soon after, Danica appeared... That was probably the worst fight they ever had!
It was then that Frederick recalled his research about Alicia's studies at St. Abbott University in Bayton City. Apparently, she was a design graduate. No wonder she was so good at designing even men's clothes. She wasn't far behind the professionals!
Could it be that she was angry at that time, not simply because his vote had gone to someone else? The grand prize at that time was a design master's handbook! Master Nirva! Could it be that she went up not because of the money but because of that handbook?
However, Frederick didn't know back then that she had studied design!
He knew the significance the collection of handbooks had for designers. Iwas like a racer's N fervent pursuit of a car. Neither of them did Tt for the price, but outof interest. Alicia went to great lehgths to get t, yetin the end, she rmissed auf That ticket from Frederick might have been just what she fieeded. She must have hated him then!
No wonder she was arguing with him on the streets!
With his heart pumping, the music on stage was still looping and it seemed to be nearing the end. Coming back to his senses, Frederick walked quickly to the side of the bar..
