Alicia dashed back to the private room as fast as she could, as if she was escaping from a warzone!

As she returned to her seat, her legs and feet were sore, and she realized her lips seemed to be tingling. Biting her lips, she was so anxious that her hands that were holding her plate of cake were trembling. "Alicia, are you okay? Are you not feeling well? Why is your face so pale?"

Miriam tried to express her concern, but Alicia was so nervous that she almost flipped the plate over when she heard her. "Ah? Really?"

Putting the cake down, Alicia reached for her face and touched her cheeks. She had just run back, but her face was all cold. With an uneasy smile, she assured Miriam.

"I'm probably just a little tired..."

Her mind was a mess, all she could think of was why was Frederick here? Did he see it? Should she take off the anklet?

As she unintentionally moved her feet, another tinkling sound chimed.

Although it wasn't loud, it was so clear that it was unignorable. She didn't expect this cheap anklet to be so nimble.

She originally bought it for the sake of fun because it tinkled when it moved, but at this instant, she was having a major headache just thinking about it.

Should she take it off? After all, they were tiny bells. The tinkling shouldn't be too loud! It was on her feet, therefore it was probably normal that she could hear the sound, right? Others probably couldn't hear it as there would still be a distance between them, could they?

As Alicia was hesitating, she couldn't help but think if there were any possibilities that he didn't notice it!

Right when she was about to ask Miriam if she could hear the tinkling sounds coming from her anklet, her cell phone vibrated. That instant, Alicia had a bad feeling about it and chills ran down her spine. At the same time, Miriam got up to have a toast with their other colleagues again.

Therefore, she took out her phone to check the message that she received.

As expected, it was a message from Frederick. "See you at the entrance in ten minutes!"

The simple eight words slammed into Alicia's heart like a hammer. He probably saw it!
