Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

The next day, Alicia opened her eyes and began to feel depressed again at the thought of reporting to Scaver International.

Brushing her teeth in the bathroom, she looked sideways at Frederick. Her gaze nearly burned two holes through him. It was a good thing she didn't give him a few kicks, let alone breakfast

Meanwhile, Frederick was self-aware. He got ready and then headed to the office for breakfast.

While Alicia was changing her clothes, Frederick noticed that instead of her previous positive and sunny disposition, she was full of unhappiness. At that, he felt as if something was weighing on his heart. He felt very uncomfortable. He then went forward and hugged her.

"You should try to work at Soaver International first. If you're really not used to being there... we'll talk about it then.” "If I really feel uncomfortable there, will you let me leave?” Turning back, Alicia pouted with a pitiful lock on her face. Pinching her face, Frederick regretted being frank and outspoken. If he said yes, she would give up right away. However, he felt guilty when he saw her unhappy.

"Given your ability to adapt, you'll get used to it. I'm sure you'll do fine!" Maybe she would even prosper there!

What job was there that she couldn't handle? Sales promotion, counter girl, designer — which did she not do outstandingly well? She could even sell rubber even though her main job was as a translator.

Well, he sure was good at putting labels on her. He was wicked! Wicked indeed! All he did was convince her to work for him. After all this talk, he still hadn't promised her anything. Alicia complained inwardly.

He said it for nothing! Glaring at him fiercely, Alicia looked away and grunted. All he said was nonsense!

"You better not dare try anything cheeky again. If you don't want to stay at Soaver International, come back and be a full-time housewife. If that happens, I'll get four bodyguards to follow you around the clock.”

With her teeth clenched, Alicia didn't even bother grunting anymore. Instead, she turned sideways. Having seen that, Frederick took her by the wrist. "Where are you going? Did you hear what I just said?"

Turning back, Alicia angrily shook off his hand. "Yes, President Clements! I'm going to report to the office now! Are you satisfied?"

How annoying! How dare he threaten her?

"Ally..."

Just as Frederick was about to speak again, he saw Alicia turn around in a huff and get her bag. She then brushed past him with her bag in a quick stride and walked out without even looking at him.

With a dry smile and a twitch at the corner of his mouth, Frederick fell speechless.

Soon after, there was the sound of a car engine starting outside the door. Frederick froze. She actually left that early? She must be fuming with rage! Picking up his cell phene, he dialled Chet's number.

Meanwhile, the Randolph family was overwhelmed by a gloomy atmosphere early in the morning.

After returning the night before, Danica was in a bad mood. She locked herself in her room and drank a lot of wine. It was midnight when she finished crying and fell asleep drunk. When she opened her eyes the next morning, she was dizzy and haggard. Her face was deadly pale as if a dark aura covered her.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Dressed in her housecoat, she went downstairs in a disheveled state

"Mrs. Andrews, can you make me some soup? For breakfast, I'd like some oyster porridge. Ch yes, and cook me some bird's nest with less sugar.” "Yes, Miss."

With Ivy Andrews, the maid, retreating, Danica then headed over to the other side of the sofa. "Dad, good morning.”

Just as she sat down, a newspaper was thrown in front of her. "Look at you! Why don't you clean up a little before coming down? No wonder you haven't made any progress after so long!"

Kieran Randolph, Danica's father, spoke with a look of discontent.

"With how you look now, what interest can a man have when he sees you? Look! No wonder an arrogant man like Frederick doesn't reconsider his previous relationship and instead, went after a woman with more challenge. Can't you put a little more thought into it?"

Danica was already upset when she was rejected the night before, but at this instant, even her father talked to her in such a tone. With her eyes lowered, the image of Frederick and a woman kissing on the street came into her view. Reaching out, she picked up the newspaper.

"Crazy for love: Mr. Clements chases after a young woman!"

The man in the photo was undoubtedly Frederick, and only the woman's silhouette was visible because of the angle and backlighting. Even so, Danica saw that the woman locked like Alicia. Still, she wasn't sure of it.

There were two photos in the newspaper. One was obviously Frederick holding the woman in his arms and.farcibly kissing her, while~ his armsalmost completely covered the woiman's head. The other was of him hdlding a bouquet while the watnan's hands were behind her back as if she was refusiig him. Behind them was a bright bus stop sign. The painting of a couple behind them was beautiful too...

Danica couldn't imagine that Frederick, such a cold man, would act so crazy on the streets. Even when they used to be in love, he was very restrained in front of other people. At that time, it was even considered intimate if they cuddled. Even behind closed doors, he didn't seem like someone who would act so passionately.

Grabbing her hair, Danica's thoughts were in a frenzy. How could this happen?

For someone as noble and resistant to women as Frederick was, he should not have condescended and forced himself into a relationship. Suddenly, Danica was shocked to realize that she didn't seem to know him anymore.

Stimulated by panic, she unconsciously mumbled, "What is this?"

"What do you mean? It's clearly written there, isn't it? Frederick is pursuing another woman! What have you been doing every day for so long since you got back? Don't you know the situation of our family? If you don't work hard, you won't have enough to eat soon. You can forget the bird's nest as well!"

"Don't you know him well? Can't you hurry up and get close to him? I'm planning to invest in some short- term stocks Since he is a financial. connoisseur, he must have insiderc information. I heard that he bought stocks ast year, and in just three day: he made over three hundred rpiflion dollars! I have beenthinking. My investments in businésses are too slow to produce results. If it goes on like this, all that money is of no use. But, if I can win a bet, I can almost get by."

"Danica, you have to find a way to invite him home for a meal! Even if it's just a short visit, it'll do. Frederick possesses intense political power. If we can get on his goed side, our family could take a turn for the better. You have to work harder. What's the use of you staying at home every day?”

Kieran spoke with a lock of hatred as if he saw gold disappearing from his hands. If anyone else were to be in his position, they would have felt anxious as well.

Danica was already feeling bad, and currently, she was being told off by her father, therefore she was even more furious. With one sweep of her hands, she threw the newspaper away.

"Did I not try? Do I not want to be with him? If you hadn't asked me to leave him for 850 million six years ago, would we'be in this situation? ow, he's {fe one who doesn't want. mel Do you think a man like him =~ woulddack women? We've beep” apartor six years! I didn't wait for him: I betrayed him and lefthim. What right do I have to ask him for anything now? You want me to get him back, but is he the kind of person I can get back just by trying? f I could, I would have dragged him back long ago instead of staying at home

crying every day!”
