When Alicia got home, she was in a foul mood. She went through door after door and only realized that the light in the room was on when she looked up. As her eyes landed on a certain person, her first reaction was to check the time on her watch.

8.58 p.m?

Seeing that she was on time, she happily went up to him. "Hubby, I didn't break the rules!"

At the top of the stairs, Alicia looked at him obediently with her arms around his waist!

Frederick put his arm around her and said as he squinted his eyes, "Few minutes before curfew? What happened? Why do you look so glum?"

She was so absent-minded when she entered the house that she didn't even change her shoes!

Shaking her head, Alicia unintentionally grabbed his shirt and buried her face into his chest. "I was just a little afraid of the dark!"

In her heart, she was really afraid! But at this moment, she didn't know how to tell him about everything that has happened.

Feeling her slight quiver, Frederick hugged her tightly.

"Silly! This is a high-end residential area in a civilized city. The police patrol the streets here 24 hours a day. Nothing will happen! If you are afraid, just call me and I'll pick you up!" "Alright!" Alicia muttered as she began to calm down.

Stroking her hair, Frederick pinched her ear. "You don't have to be afraid of anything anymore! Just come to me if you're in trouble, I will protect you!"

As Alicia looked up at him, she suddenly remembered that Carson was also a famous doctor. But currently, the schedule of the surgery has already been set, and she personally believed in Marshall very much as well. She knew Marshall was a very competent medical doctor. At his young age, he had already earned many titles and served in famous major hospitals in other countries.

After thinking about it, Alicia felt that she should just trust him. At this critical moment, it was definitely not a good idea to create more problems. If something really went wrong, she can confront him afterward! "Then in the future... will you answer the phone whenever I call?"
