With a cold expression on his face, Frederick took a look at Carson and he knew he wanted to tell him something. "Okay!"

However, his heart dropped on the inside. Was there something wrong with Alicia's health?

Before going out, Frederick leaned over to cover her up. "Be obedient, don't run around!"

With a cold snort, Alicia turned over and showed him her back.

He was agitated by the action and felt a jolt of anger. This woman was impossible!

Still, he left and shut the door.

He sent Carson downstairs. Carson spoke before leaving, "Does she have a habit of self-abuse?"

Generally, women with self-abuse habits had some mental problems! He remembered seeing her in a state of frenzy when he first walked in. Afterward, she was chattering all the way, giving him the impression that she was quite optimistic. People who were positive seldom self-abuse, thus he was confused.

He spoke doubtfully but with a slightly affirmative tone. Frederick was startled. "What did you say?"

Self-abuse? How could it be possible? If such a heartless woman self- abused, would there be anyone in the world who hadn't?

"The scar on her leg just formed a scab and it should be a recent injury, definitely not for more than a month. Judging from the direction and depth of the wound, I thought she stabbed herself!" "Are you saying that she caused the wounds on her leg herself?"

Frederick could not believe his ears. He noticed those wounds when he changed her clothes the night before. There were also traces of stitches but her mental condition was unstable and they had not talked properly, therefore he did not have the chance to ask her. Those scars looked recent and they appeared in the time when he had not come home. He had never seen them before!

Her skin was smooth and delicate without any blemishes. He would not forget those apparent scars!
