Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

"What do you mean he detests women? He brought a woman to the company's cafeteria before, remember? If a man does not mingle with women, it's a sign that he is gay or he has erectile dysfunction! However, judging by Mr. Clement's figure and his manliness, do you think that he's either? Don't you feel that something's strange? That woman replaced Mr. Clement's secretary for half a day, then took two weeks' leave. If she didn't terminate her pregnancy, then why would she need to take two weeks' leave?"

"Did you also realize that Mr. Clements hasn't been in the office during these two weeks? I noticed Mr. Reynes calling him a few times. He told me that he needed to bring some documents over to Mr. Clements to sign! I'm pretty sure that he did not go on a business trip!"

"No wonder she hasn't been fired even though she requested for two weeks' leave. It turns out that there's something fishy between her and Mr. Clements!"

"She's back today, but I didn't see Mr. Clements..." "Mr. Clements doesn't necessarily have to come to work. He is the president for a reason. Which woman does not want to take advantage of him? Besides, she's beautiful. I'm not surprised that she slept with Mr. Clements! However, she must have overestimated her abilities! Does she think it is easy to marry into a wealthy family?"

"Right?"

So they were gossiping about her! She'd been worried for nothing.

Alicia let out a breath and couldn't help rolling her eyes. Terminating her pregnancy? These people had amazing imaginations.

She looked down at the thermos flask in her hand. Then, she gave a slight cough before she entered the pantry.

She didn't really care about what people were gossiping about her. However, what she worried most was people making up stories out of thin air.

After returning to her seat, she made a cup of chrysanthemum tea. Then, she continued on with her work.

Just as she was about to get off from work, she received a text from Frederick. "How are you feeling today?"

Alicia knew that he texted her to warn her not to exert herself. She smiled and sent a few cute emojis to him, "I've been good. I did not do anything but sign documents."

While she was texting Frederick, someone suddenly threw a document on her desk. "Alicia, I need this document to be translated by tomorrow. I want it typed out in the computer. Once you're done, email it to me! I'm going to need it for my presentation the next day!"

When Alicia saw that it was her manager, Giselle, who placed the documents on her desk, she quickly stood up and said, "Alright, Giselle!"
