Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

After thinking about it for a while, Alicia finally understood something.

It wasn't important if it was true or not. Danica just wanted the suspicion, estrangement, and cracks between Frederick and Alicia! Perhaps, she did not care about Frederick's thoughts at all. She just wanted Alicia to think that they were incompatible, to misunderstand each other, and even to break up!

A sudden thought came to her mind. She felt as if she was being played and manipulated. Since Danica couldn't find a breakthrough from Frederick, she decided to take action against Alicia instead. Taking a deep breath, Alicia felt that she was still mentally weak. If she'd been more rational, she would've noticed that things were off right from the get go. They would have fought, and Doris wouldn't have witnessed such a scene. If they'd been seen by any other employee, there'd be rumors everywhere!

"What're you thinking about? You didn't even hear me call you. Aren't you hungry?" He called her name twice, but she didn't respond at all.

He embraced her and said, "Wash your hands, it's time to eat!"

"The faucet is broken, isn't it?" She suddenly came to her senses and said in a softer voice.

"That's why we'll have to make do with the water in the bucket."

Alicia saw a bucket at the sink and washed her hands with a smile. She also wiped her face. Fortunately, she didn't put on any mascara that day because she'd gotten up late. Otherwise, she would have looked terrible.

The corners of her mouth twitched in front of the mirror. She rubbed her reddened eyes and walked out happily.

Frederick had already set up the food at the table. He gave her the tableware and said, "Here, eat more!"

Her performance that day was amazing!

His actions made her sad, which gave Frederick mixed feelings. He said to her, "You're the smartest woman I have ever seen! I'm very happy to be with a smart woman!"

At the same time, he felt comfortable!
