The words 'Uncle' appeared on the screen of her phone, yet Alicia was not as excited as she was just moments ago.

She wiped her tears, raised her head, and choked as she thought, "Don't cry! Why are you crying? Haven't you shed enough tears for men?" She let the phone continue ringing. She told herself to not answer it!

The ringing stopped before it rang again. She hugged her legs and bit her lips. The phone stopped ringing, and her eyes got wet again.

She told herself, "He did not even call for three times. I'm not even worth three phone calls to him, right?"

She laughed sadly before she stopped crying. "I'm nothing to him! I didn't expect to be anything to him either..."

Although she said so, she still cared deeply in her heart! After all, he was her only man. In Alicia's heart, Frederick was as important as Jeremy.

But, no matter what, they were married. He should have at least tried to maintain a normal relationship with her. That would have been enough! Why must he make her life so miserable? Just as she was about to put her phone away and wash her face, she received a message from Frederick. There was only a single word on it. [WhatsApp]

She clicked on the app and found that she had logged out of it. As soon as she entered it, she saw his message. He had left her a message.

[It was just a cleaner. She accidentally stained the bathroom earlier on. She was cleaning it!]

Alicia pouted her lips and muttered, "Who would believe such nonsense?"

After that, he sent several photos of the room, as well as a photo of the cleaner whose nose was red. She looked petite and pitiful.

But, at this moment, even after looking at the photos, Alicia still subconsciously did not believe him. She felt that finding a cleaner and taking a photo of her was not a big deal for him! After a while, Frederick tried to give her a video call. For the first time, she did not answer.

Frederick sent another message. [You've grown some nerves, haven't you? Answer the phone, or you'll suffer the consequences once I get back!]
