Alicia touched her cheek. Then, she shook her head and replied, "It's nothing.""

She didn't want to talk about it as it would ruin her mood. However, looking at Frederick's cold gaze, she had no choice but to tell him what happened.

"I really don't know what is wrong with her. She just lashed out at me. My husband is so good-looking, gentle, considerate, and rich. Wouldn't you be the smarter choice? Not to mention for someone as smart as me!"

Alicia grinned as she told Frederick the whole story before she continued. It was cute how she blinked and showered him with compliments.

"If it weren't for her being pregnant, I would have slapped her! I held back with her condition, it would be my fault if anything happened to her. Don't you think I'm smart, Hubby? After this, I'm sure that she won't come and look for me. It wasn't like she could do anything to me. There would just merely be words. She would be at the losing end if she picked a fight with me!"

She was not only smart but sly as a fox.

Although he knew where she was coming from and agreed with her way of handling things, Frederick still felt sorry that she was slapped. He caressed her cheek and said, "Yes!"

Frederick swore that he would make the Crouch family pay for what Lindsay had done.

Alicia felt so much better after seeing how well Martin was recovering. Although she was still working hard at both her daytime and a part-time job, she was extremely motivated. She was looking forward to her family reuniting again.

One day, Alicia used some free time on her schedule and translated an extra thousand words. She felt accomplished and internally commended herself for it!

After saving the file and send it in an email, she got up and printed some documents. She was ready to go out for a walk to relax.

Alicia got up as she saw that the queue was getting shorter. When she got up, she felt an itch on her arm. She couldn't help but scratch it.

Alicia realized she left her phone charging after she headed out. As she was involved in arranging for Martin's surgery, she was afraid that she would miss any crucial information about the surgery. She had no choice but to run back to her office to get her phone.
