Although he did not know the specific reason, Frederick understood that everything which happened to her earlier on was because of him. At this moment, he felt sorry and was determined to protect her. No matter how sincere he was to the woman in his arms, there was one thing that he was absolutely sure of- Alicia was his woman! Except for him, no one could touch her!

Alicia was confused.

She didn't understand what he meant.

Even after the banquet had ended, she still didn't understand what was going on.

However, when she went back to the room and finished showering, she noticed a tragic problem. Her foot was so painful that she couldn't feel it anymore.

"Your foot is really swollen. Why didn't you tell me? Do you want to be disabled?" Frederick said.

Seeing her red and swollen ankle, Frederick took out the ointment with a gloomy face. He was a little unhappy, but her movement was careful when he lifted her leg. Although it still hurt, she swallowed back the anger that initially arose in her.

She suddenly felt that he seemed to care about her!

"Ouch! Oh, it hurts so much..."

"Don't move. It will only work if I rub it in!" Frederick insisted. Looking at him holding her delicate foot with his warm big hands, Alicia never thought that he would do such a thing for her.

It was not until a sharp pain hit her that she could not help but gasp again.

"So fussy! It's just a little painful!" Frederick said.

This time, Alicia was not angry. She answered pitifully, "I'm a patient!"

"Then, you'd better be obedient and take an early rest!" His voice finally calmed down.

His voice finally calmed down. Frederick got up and went to wash his hands. When he came out, he saw that she was still sitting on the bed in a daze.
