Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

"Aunt Freya? Is that you? You've changed so much!"

"Alicia? What brought you here? I've been looking for you all for a long time!"

With tears in her eyes, Freya went forward to hold Alicia's hands and said, "Come in and sit with me. We'll talk!"

She then attended to the customers who were still inside the store.

"Hi everyone, please excuse us but something cropped up today, so we'll have to close our shop early. You're most welcome to come back tomorrow!"

"I'm sorry. Thank you for your understanding."

After shutting the door, they went to the back to which Alicia discovered that the perfume store was actually two-storeyed with the first floor as the store, while the second floor as a partitioned living space. With only a space of 400 to 500 square feet, there was a bed on one side while the kitchen and washroom on another. While it didn't seem spacious, the place had been tastefully decorated. Inside it was full of women's items. Even the bed seemed to be slightly larger than a single bed.

After a quick study of the place, Alicia found it a little hard to accept.

Obviously, those were all that she owned.

Based on her memory, back then, Aunt Freya was a popular celebrity personal assistant in the industry. She was adept at all kinds of jobs. Whether her relationship with Sebastian had been as uncomplicated as how it looked, her income alone could afford her mansions and branded goods decades ago. How could she be nestling in such a tiny space now?

At the very least, she should have a workplace separated from her residence. After working for more than 20 years, couldn't she at least afford an apartment?

Or was she broke?

Thinking about this, Alicia found it hard to believe!
