Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Alicia quickly replied, "I'm currently having some tea. I miss you, your praises and your sweet talk..." She sent the message along with a few shy emojis.

When Frederick saw her reply, he could imagine her cute face as she rested her head on the table. Perhaps, she was finally glad to be back at JT Translation Services. That was where she truly belonged! He could feel the change in her mood, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"I have a dinner to attend tonight! You have to make sure to eat your dinner. You can even go to your mom's place. You have to take care of yourself. Don't skip dinner!"

She giggled as she felt all warm and fuzzy inside. She replied:

"I will! I'll be good! You have to take care of yourself as well! Come back early. I'll be waiting for you!"

Though their text exchanges were brief, it was essential for them to text. As soon as they put away their phones, both of them felt physically and mentally relaxed. Both were suddenly in a good mood. When the bell rang to signal the end of the workday, Alicia was still immersed in her joy. Since Frederick would not be home, she decided to head over to her mother's place to have dinner. She was not only satisfied with her life now, but she yearned for it. The only difference was that she was living in a different city.

As soon as she walked out of the company, she saw a good-looking man leaning against the wall.

Jeremy?

What was he doing here?

If she wanted to get her car, she had to walk past him. This time, she did not deliberately avoid him and even walked up to him. However, before she could ask him anything, she heard him speak.

"I had no idea why I decided to come here, and I have no idea what I want to do. All I know is that my heart is in a mess. I unconsciously made my way here, it seems. Now that I'm here, I feel slightly relieved..."

When she heard how lonely he felt, she was a little helpless.

"Have you ever thought that if you continue on this way, I'm afraid that you would only suffer more! Jeremy, it doesn't matter what brought you here. You should never show up here ever again!"

Hadn't he learned his lesson?

Although she had no intentions to upset him, she believed that the both of them had the same understanding; Frederick had something to do with the Pitcher Group's current crisis! He was not a man to be trifled with!
