Chapter 153
When Kaylee Vivies mentioned that she had received news about Danica, Frederick was in a hurry to confirm it. In addition, Danica went to a nightclub she seldom visited. According to what he heard, she was a little drunk. Thus, Frederick was a little worried that something bad would happen to her as there were men all around.
No matter what, he wouldn't allow it!
As soon as Frederick moved, Alicia grabbed his sleeve and muttered, "Hubby, my stomach is feeling a little... uncomfortable!¹'
She was not a sentimental person and did not like to force her own thoughts on others. However, she was really feeling ill at this moment. It was also the first time that she used such a disdained way in order to retain her man!
In her heart, this was definitely her limit. This was the most she would do for a man!
However, Frederick did not realize her sincerity, care, and reluctance. This was also the last chance she was giving him. Seeing her acting coquettishly, he thought that she had become wilful and capricious as she was being spoiled by him too much. When he spoke again, his tone became much colder.
"Listen to me and take an early rest!"
There was an obvious change of tone in his words, indicating that he was a little upset. How could Alicia not notice that? She was intelligent and pretty good at observing a person's words and expressions!
She gradually relaxed her hands that were grabbing onto him tightly, At the same time, her heart changed from feeling chaotic, complicated, and entangled to deep disappointment and despair.
Finally, Alicia withdrew her hand as well as her pleading gaze and her feelings!
Sensing her emotions, Frederick raised his hand to pat her head. Then, he lowered his head to kiss her on the forehead.
"Be good! I'll be back soon!"
Frederick turned around, took the car key, and strode away. Whereas for Alicia, she was silent the whole time.
When the door of the room was shut, her eyes were welled up with tears out of the blue. In the end, he had abandoned her!
As soon as the sound of the car engine starting could be heard, tears started to roll down her cheeks.
"Alicia Blanchard, why do you make yourself be so pitiful? You should have known that long ago, right? Begging and being pitiful can never keep a man who isn't into you!" she reprimanded herself.
If it really worked, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
This was the method she disdained the most. However, she did that again.
Tears were streaming down her cheeks like a waterfall but Alicia was already numb from the pain. She sniffed as she felt relieved all of a sudden.
Finally, she did not have to worry about it anymore!
He was a man who had given up on her again and again. No matter how good he was, she would never want him again!
"Alicia, how pathetic your life is! You've always been so wholehearted and generous, yet they are so ungrateful and abandoned you! They are not worth it," she muttered to herself.
"You have been deserted before, why haven't you given up yet?"
This time, there was no regret!
She smirked in self-mockery as her heart went cold.
In this world, her parents were the only ones who loved her the most. Even if she made any mistake, her parents would never abandon her! That and money. Money was much more reliable than men!
She needed money to save her father. She could still feel loved!
Alicia was shivering all over from the stomachache. She was in so much pain that beads of cold sweat formed on her forehead. She pressed on her stomach hard and she couldn't help sobbing.
"Are you bullying me as well? Why do you have to go against me too?"
She turned around to pour herself a glass of warm water and drank it. After calming herself down, she was about to make a bowl of warm soup and was going to take some brown sugar. However, her stomach was cramping again and her strength seemed to have been taken away instantly. She was in so much agony that she lay on the edge of the bed and could not get up for a long time.
What was going on?
Could it be that she had appendicitis again? Didn't she just have an operation?
After thinking about it for a while, Alicia realized that something was wrong in an instant. Her breathing sounded like she was being stabbed by a sharp knife and cold sweats were forming on
her forehead.
As soon as she picked up the phone, she dialed the emergency phone number. Then, she struggled as she walked towards the wardrobe to get dressed.
Meanwhile, Frederick was on his way to the nightclub.
In the dark room, the smell of alcohol pervaded the air and everything was in a mess. Kaylee and her friends drank a little too much as they were dancing and falling all over. Several buttons on Kaylee clothes were open as well.
When Frederick walked forward, he grabbed her hand, which was holding a bottle of wine. He frowned slightly and uttered, "Enough! You are a lady. Why are you behaving like this?"
Frederick had never liked seeing women drinking and acting crazily. He felt that it was an ugly and disgusting behavior. To be frank, he was a close-minded and conservative man. Of course, he was more into gentle and obedient ladies.
Therefore, at this moment, when he saw that Kaylee was in a mess with her face flushed, he really felt that it was unpleasant to the eyes! In his mind, girls should be clean, beautiful and gentle!
Apparently, on this day, Kaylee had a good time. She hooked her arms around his neck and muttered.
"Frederick, here you are! These are all my friends. I think you know them! Let me show you Danica's... phone..."
She giggled as she was speaking. Obviously, she was a little tipsy. She subconsciously placed her hand into her pocket to search for the phone for a long time before she remembered that it was on the table. Therefore, she bent over to get it. However, she later found that the phone was at the corner of the sofa.
When she opened it, Frederick saw the conversation between them.
It was on WhatsApp. The text seemed to be from Danica and the profile picture was also her picture. The two of them had only spoken a few words. Frederick was agitated for a moment, thus he went over her phone instinctively.
Nothing? Why was there nothing?
Only then did Kaylee notice his actions. She patted his shoulder and spoke, "Frederick, she just got my WhatsApp contact... We have only talked for a while. She hasn’t replied to me since!"
Kaylee shook her head and looked through their conversation. She was still pouting and she spoke in a well-behaved manner.
"Frederick, look how good I am to you. If there is any news... I will inform you as soon as possible! I don't know what she is busy with... She hasn't answered my text for a long time! But I call you immediately!"
He continued to look through the conversation and found that they did exchange a few words, reminiscing about the past. Moreover, according to the chat record, she was in Lesterdam City at the moment.
She would be back soon!
There was an inexplicable excitement in his heart but it was mixed with some complicated emotions. In an instant, Frederick felt that his breathing was faintly trembling.
At this moment, a message reached the phone. [I miss you guys too. I have some things to attend to. Let's contact each other when I'm back!]
Frederick replied in a hurry. [Where are you?]
[Don't ask! I'm not going to tell you anyhow. I will see you when I get back!]
He felt that she seemed to be avoiding the topic. When Frederick was about to reply, she had already sent a "Goodbye" emoji.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time but Frederick's memory of her from a few years ago was still lingering in his mind. It had been too long. He couldn't even be sure that it was indeed Danica just by looking at this conversation. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
After looking through the chat record, Frederick stalked her Facebook for a while.
There were two photos on it, which seemed to be taken at a scenic spot. She was in the photos. Although she looked a little slimmer than before and didn't look as sweet as she looked in the past, it was obvious that she had gone through many things in life. Everything about her, including her face, felt so familiar to him.
