Alicia went back to the house after answering the call with glee on her face, and she even seemed a little shy.

"I told you, Mom! Now can you rest assured? Frederick wants to take me out, hence I won't be eating here tonight..."

She said her goodbyes, and her parents gave her some more advice before she went back home.

When she arrived, she took a shower. Considering that it was a work-related function, it would most probably be a very classy one. Therefore, she chose a rather formal-looking dress with an off-shoulder design, which showed off her sleek collarbones and made her look really elegant. Her outfit accentuated her womanly figure but it was not too flattering. The black and white lace material was just the right amount of formality and feminine.

After getting dressed, she applied some light makeup and put her hair into an up-do. Frederick came in while she was looking at herself in the mirror. Then, their gazes met and Alicia turned around to give him a curtsey.

"Mr. Clements..."

She giggled while looking at herself, "Hubby, do I look like your secretary like this?"

He laughed in response.

He couldn't help but be amused by her. Then, he reached out and pulled up her collar, "If Doris was half as gorgeous as you, I would be laughing in my dreams! It is all just right like this!"

He loved her low-key attitude! All of her passion and sexiness should be only for him to see!

Then, he then walked to the wardrobe and picked out a suit.

He said, "I'm going to meet a few friends to discuss something... But, I'm bringing you along to have some fun. I heard that tonight's event is in correlation to the hotel's anniversary celebration. Therefore, there might even be some special activities!"

After he got changed, he turned around to look at her, "Just have fun. However, don't stray too far away once we get there!"

Alicia was a bright, shining meteor, and she would always glow so brightly wherever she went.

"Alright, got it! I promise I won't leave your sight!" She held his hand and gave him an obedient look.
