He was nervous as he checked the time. Then, he picked up his phone and video called Alicia.

Alicia had apparently gone emotional while waiting for his call. Just as she was wondering if she should call him, her phone rang. When she pressed the answer button, her face became grim. In an instant, Frederick's heart started to race again.

"Ally, I..."

"Why did you call so late? You don't love me anymore!"

She roared angrily, with a hint of coquetry. Her words made Frederick let out a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say something, he changed his mind.

He explained, "I'm sorry. Something happened at the company and I went to a meeting early in the morning. I didn't see your messages. How could I possibly not love you? It hurts so much to hear you say that. My heart is about to break..." "Please don't be angry with me. It's already so late. Why haven't you slept yet?"

Although he would occasionally behave so sweetly when they were together, whenever he did so, nine out of ten times was because he made her angry. Alicia was inexplicably surprised hearing him saying this.

She giggled and said, 'I've been waiting for you, I was thinking whether I should call you again!. If I couldn't see you, I would not be at ease! You are my best remedy. Honey, you are a lot more gaunt. Didn't you rest well? Was work difficult to deal with?"

He knew that she was asking about official matters, but no matter how difficult it was, it couldn't compare to what he had to do for her. He replied, "I can deal with it, but..." He missed her so much!

The words were about to come out of his mouth. After hovering for a long time, Frederick still dared not to say it so he changed his words.

"I've been a bit busy lately, so I might not be able to reply or answer your calls in time. If there's anything you need but couldn't find me, you can always call Chet!"

Once he began his trip with Danica, he wouldn't have the freedom to contact her so frequently anymore. It was better to reduce contact with her at this time. "Okay..."

Alicia nodded and smiled, saying, "I understand.

Don't worry about me! I'll be back in two days!"
