Having gone this far, Alicia was reluctant to stop, and by the time she realized it, her feet and body had automatically followed after him. They reached the front of a club one after the other. Alicia grabbed his sleeve before he could enter, pleading softly.

"I won't be so sentimental the next time. I'll think twice. Can you stop being angry?"

"You followed me all this way just to tell me this?"

Glancing at her, Frederick felt upset. In his memory, she had never sought him out except for this time when she had completely pissed him off.

The thought made him glare at her with displeasure.

Nodding, Alicia pursed her lips, inexplicably worried at his tone. "Why does it feel like I was supposed to say something else?"

However, apart from this, there was nothing else she could say!

Just when Alicia was still reflecting on his words, Frederick had already continued to move forward.

What was with his attitude?

It stunned her for a moment. Then, Alicia quickly caught up with him, "Hubby, can we have dinner together tonight?" "Can we talk about this?"

Rushing to keep up with him, she missed a step and stumbled. A flash of inspiration hit and she let herself fall to the ground.

"Ah!"

Her loud grunt, in which she purposefully raised a few pitches, made Frederick turn back. "What's wrong? Are you hurt?"

Pulling her upright forcefully, Frederick bent down to check on her legs.

Alicia instantly grimaced, "It hurts...."

He still cared about her! The sudden acknowledgement gave Alicia immense courage.
