Her luck was so bad that she had no strength to fight it back.

She turned around and tried to pull her dress away. But when she moved, she found that there seemed to be a dull pain under her feet. She moved a little bit and squatted down to remove her dress from the iron wire.

By this time, the rain was getting heavier, but she did not even have the strength to run anymore. She only felt extremely sad!

At this moment, a black car stopped at the side of the road.

By the time Frederick found her, he had already looked around twice. The rain was pouring. Therefore, he did not find her in the first two times. When he got out of the car, he was furious. "Alicia, where have you been?"

Alicia turned around and realized that it was Frederick. It was as if she had seen a savior. She didn't notice his angry face at all. Alicia rushed over. She did not care how dirty she was. She threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

"Hubby-"

Only then did she notice how dirty and tired she was. The moment he held her, his anger was replaced by inexplicable calmness.

Frederick held her tightly with one hand. Seeing how miserable she was, his voice softened a little, "It's okay now!"

He gave her his umbrella and took off his suit jacket before wrapping it around her cold body. Then, he raised his hand to wipe her dirty face. "Silly! Get into the car first!"

At this moment, Frederick realized how worried he was! When he saw her in person, he knew that nothing else mattered as much as this.

When they got into the car, he saw that her nose and eyes were red. Frederick took a tissue and wiped her face.

"What happened? Why did you turn off your phone? Didn't I tell you to wait here? Where did you go this time?"

Why were her clothes torn?

It would have been fine if he did not mention it. As soon as he asked, the grievance in her heart rose, and her tears flowed again. She could not stop crying no matter what.

At this time, a car horn sounded. Frederick patted the back of her head to comfort her as he fastened her seatbelt.
