Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Why did he have to complain over such trivial matters?

Abruptly, she remembered that Elijah had told her that he would ensure her peace for the rest of her life. Her heart was stirred up yet again. Carolien immediately waved her hand.

"Do the same thing if it happens again in the future."

She was in no mood to play nice that day.

It was a good idea. It saved her the trouble of having to deal with ruffians and hooligans every day. She had to serve every one of them. If not, there would be all kinds of conflict.

If they wanted to take advantage of her, she would let them have a taste of high interest rates.

She pondered and figured that it probably wouldn't be too troublesome for Elijah's men to collect interest once every year. Begging him to help was better than having to service those people.

Nodding, Caroline added, "Be firm about it. Just call the police if they don't cooperate or make a fuss."

"Huh?"

Somewhat unable to believe his own ears, the waiter's mouth kept opening and closing. Seeing that Carolien did not seem to be joking, he finally gave a delayed nod.

"Okay."

Turning around, the waiter slipped away again.

Picking up the cocktail, Carolien glanced at table four on the side. After the waiter briefly explained things to them, she saw the two people taking out their wallets. Her crimson lips couldn't help but twitch.

"Hmph. That's how the world works, alright."

Sure enough, it was survival of the fittest.

In the past, she had patiently and kindly tried to convince and beg them, and even let them have their way many times. She was often bullied by others with no way to fight back and absolutely humiliated. Right then, it was so simple. It felt good to have power. Some people were stubborn as a donkey. They could only be sent away by force.

She saw the two of them gloomily make their way to the door with their heads lowered. They didn't even dare to breathe too loudly. Carolien raised her glass, took another sip of her cocktail, and snorted,

"They could just come and have a good time, but they insist on making trouble," she grumbled.

Didn't they know that even the kindest of people would bite when provoked?

They had gradually forced her to resort to such measures. Otherwise, nobody would provoke Elijah in favor of living a good life. It was a pity that people always bit off more than they could chew.

She also scribbled the words "get lost" in a speech bubble above the largest character, and labeled the characters with the numbers 1,
