Looking at the overturned bottles and cans on the ground, Alicia could imagine how intense the situation was earlier. She helped her sit aside as she had noticed her aunt's pale face and slightly messy hair.. "She's gone far! They're so awful!" Alicia said angrily.

While she held her hand, Freya patted her hand lightly. "Let's forget about it. I'm used to it anyways! Let's close up early today! I'll clean it up first!"

"Fine..."

After she helped to close the store, Alicia poured a glass of water for Freya and quickly packed up everything else before sitting down beside her. "Aunt Freya, don't take it personally. Bad people will always suffer heaven's wrath! There will be retribution for us one day when she gets old!"

She comforted her and spoke.

"These people are picking on the weak yet they fear the strong! Why don't you divorce him? Why do you have to be involved with these scumbags? Since Frederick is famous, I can ask him for help. Even if it's a lawsuit, we'll get our justice! He's guilty and I won't let them go this easily. Isn't it better for you to be compensated now than being harassed from time to time?"

"You're only delaying the inevitable if you keep this up!"

"Ah, it isn't as simple as you think it is! Even if I lodge a lawsuit, the judge will take a while before coming to a decision! It doesn't matter if he's guilty. He's a celebrity, a wealthy person. Moreover, all the assets under his name may not actually belong to him. Even if it's at least ten years, I'll still be a full-time housewife. How much can I even earn? Ally, it's not that I'm greedy or anything, but what can I gain from him? I'm just not satisfied! If I don't leave, then I'll be suffering, but if I do, then I'll be suffering much worse! A person of my age is prone to illness. What else can I do other than be dead weight? I'd rather remain under the Forbes family's name until I die!" A tremendous surge of power was suddenly transmitted from her hand. Alicia inadvertently caught a hint of deep grief and hatred in Freya's eyes.

It was true; their marriage lasted for more than 20 years! All of her youth and beauty was spent on him... She was willing to suffer so much, so she must've loved Sebastian deeply! How could she hate him? How could it be so easy to let go...

Otherwise, she would've chosen to live her own life!

"She's not even fifty years old yet. She even took good care of herself. She still has a long time before she leaves. Besides, she still has a lot of admirers even till today!" Alicia thought to herself. She really wanted to change her mind, but in the end, Alicia merely kept quiet.

Alicia was bothered for a few days because of this matter, especially every time she saw the news on Sebastian's concert. The lights, the fans, the sponsorships... It wasn't important if it was real or fake. He simply looked like he was a winner under his spotlight. She was infuriated by him.

knowing that she kept this thought in her mind. In the next few days, she kept calling. No matter if it was morning or night, Alicia had gone to Lovely Scent.
