Fuming in her heart, Alicia tightened her grip on her shopping bags. Alicia wanted to head over but soon, she calmed down. Instead, she took her phone. "Huh? Why is it off?"

Pressing hard on the start button, Alicia turned on her phone which was almost out of battery. She checked her phone for missed calls and messages. "Nothing? There is literally nothing!"

Muttering to herself, Alicia lowered her head as her vision blurred. She was so upset that tears started to roll down her cheeks.

He didn't come after her. No phone calls and no explanation. Was Frederick mad at her for splashing water at him?

Alicia shook her head abruptly and realized how far gone she was. "It wasn't wrong of me to splash at him. Why am I giving him excuses?"

"My, my, Alicia. Why do you care so much for him? You are stupid! He doesn't like you! If he really cares for you, he would definitely not hurt you, let alone do the despicable things!" "So what if you head over there? As if being humiliated once isn't enough. Do you want to put yourself in that kind of position again?"

Alicia's mind was spinning. She subconsciously went through her call history. She went through every number carefully including the unknown numbers.

Finally, the faint light in Alicia's heart dimmed. She lost all hope for Frederick.

Wiping off her tears, she raised her head and took a deep breath. "It's okay! I'll do just fine without you! B*stard!"

Men are a*sholes. They would do anything for you when they liked you. But once they didn't, they would drop you like a hot potato! Alicia thought to herself. "Frederick, you are a b*stard! Lustful pervert! You're a beast! Ungrateful liar! F*ck you! Go to hell!"

Turning around, Alicia's steps were heavy as she moved towards the supermarket.

Meanwhile, Frederick was discussing business with the representative sent by his client at the hotel entrance. Deep down, Frederick was anxious and had his phone clutched in his hand. He was not fond of the former actress that was representing the company but it had become a norm that mistresses or someone close to the business owner to stand on their behalf. Frederick had no choice but to continue the negotiation.

Soon, Frederick's assistant drove the car over. After opening the car door, Frederick unlocked his phone and called Alicia again.
