"Relax! It's not office hours yet! Just let him wait!" Graham must be very anxious that he had to come to the office, Frederick thought. Lowering his gaze, Frederick continued rubbing his face against Alicia's neck.

She blushed as she tried to stop him. "Hey, Frederick, stop!"

How would the others who were waiting outside think of them? They had seen what the two were doing! Alicia was feeling anxious. "Hubby, are you doing business with the Crouch Family?"

Alicia felt disgusted when she thought of Lindsay Crouch. Why must it be the Crouch family? Ugh! She pouted as she thought of it.

"Yeah, what's wrong? Are you unhappy about it?"

Even though Alicia was not pleased with it, she was still being reasonable. In the end, she shook her head.

"I'm just a little upset! It's okay if you are making money from it, but if he is making money from you too, that's just so annoying! However, I understand that you should never mix up business with personal feelings. I am okay with it!"

As Alicia fixed Frederick's collar, she forced a smile onto her face. "I'll try my best to deal with it and won't cause you any trouble!"

Frederick pinched her face as he replied, "That's my girl! But, I don't think this collaboration is still going on because he has violated the contract. There won't be a next time anymore."

Alicia's eyes instantly brightened up but then she felt worried. "Won't it affect you? What a rubbish family!"

The Crouch family had not only screwed her over but also Frederick. She felt a little sorry for him.

Frederick immediately knew what was on her mind when he saw the emotions written on her face. He then pinched her face harder.

"Don't worry! He's going to pay for it!"

Immediately, Alicia cheered up. Suddenly, there came a knock with a shout, "Mr. Clements—"

Alicia recognized this voice -it was Chet's.

She jumped down from Frederick's lap and glanced at the door worriedly. "Hubby, what should we do?"

Would she be humiliated once again?
