"Don't overthink. They often talk about you. You're doing well now." What happened back then was traumatic for him. But as twent by, it becsomething not worth mentioning.
He always believed that she had her reasons; reasons that were hard for her to explain.
Frederick hoped that one day, she would open up and explain why she left, as well as the contract.
"How is Grandma? Is she physically healthy? I miss her so much but I haven't had the tto see her yet! If you have time, accompanyto visit her!" Along the way, Danica would talk to herself from tto time. But, most of the tFrederick would just say "yes" at the end of her every sentence. Especially when it cto his grandmother, his mood beccomplicated.
Fortunately, the car soon stopped in front of the door of East Bannpool.
In the private room of the nightclub, several men were present. It was the first tthat the atmosphere was a little awkward and cold. They were all swirling a glass of red wine in their hands and occasionally glanced at their phones.

"Trevor, you have the most say in this!" Knowing that he was talking about Frederick and Danica, Trevor put his glass down and spoke, "No one has a say in his business." No one could make a decision for him except for himself. The only possible person was probably his grandma! For so many years, no one had been able to make a decision for him! They nodded at the stand Willy added, "Yes." Carson swirled the glass in his hand lightly and said again, "Letrephrase. Do you think they can continue to be friends?" They looked at each other but did not say anything.
Raising his hand, Carson spoke again.
"Well, that's right. Let's talk about it in private. What happens in this room stays in this room. We are just exchanging our thoughts. If you feel that they can get back together again, raise your hand!" After looking around, no one raised a hand. Wyatt and Willy said at the stime, "I quit!" After another round, still, no one raised a hand.
This time, Wyatt and Willy were a little surprised.
"Trevor, how could you not have hope for them? Frederick had no other woman for the past few years. Are your family's rules that strict? What if, just what if—" Wyatt paused right there and continued after thinking for a while.
"What if your first woman has an accident or something? What if she was ugly or she can't bear children or has other disabilities? Would you rather suffer all your life to stay with a woman that you don't love?" In this way, he might as well die! Trevor picked up his glass and swirled it slightly with a faint smile on his face.
"The rule in the Clements family is to stay married once you are married. We don't have to marry our first love. But, rules are just rules. There's nothing that we can't do!" However, their genes were special. It was said that the process of changing eye color was painful. It was probably similar to the feeling of a woman losing her virginity.
He was not shocked that Frederick and Alicia had done it so fast. However, he did not expect that Frederick would marry her so quickly. Rules were passed down from their ancestors, therefore the older generations treated this rule very seriously.
He did not mind it but his grandma had a different opinion about it.
However, Frederick never followed the rules and did whatever pleased him. Therefore, no one knew what was on his mind. He was mysterious and even the business world knew it.
Even so, whether it was Frederick's attitude towards Alicia or Grandma's approval towards Alicia, Trevor felt that this woman was different and hard to grasp in a short time. It was like what happened in the hospital. He was surprised even just thinking about it! If he met such a woman, he would definitely fall for her! This woman was not only beautiful but was also adorable! Even though he had known Danica for so many years and had a good impression of her, he could not say that he hated Alicia.
Then, they turned their eyes to look at Carson.
"Hey, Carson, Trevor is also part of the Clements family. He should know Frederick and that woman better. Why would you..." Although Danica had been away for so many years, she was an old acquaintance of theirs! "I can't explain it but this woman is really something and I can't hate her. Especially the last time, she risked everything to save Mrs. Clements. Plus, she stayed in the hospital to take care of Grandma. She did not do it to show off or ask for credit. She did not even complain. In short, she is very special and different from any other lady! If you were there, you would be touched too!" What was more, Carson had a good impression of Alicia from the few encounters he had with her.
When their eyes met, he and Trevor nodded at the stime. Obviously, they felt the sway.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter all, they had only met a few times but they were captivated by Alicia's beauty. Without saying anything, they all raised their glasses and drank together.
As soon as they put down their wine glasses, the room door opened. Everyone stood up and Carson was the first one to speak.
"Finally..." Danica smiled and waved her hand. "Hi, Carson, it's been a long time! Sorry to keep you waiting!"
They had not seen each other for many years. Danica's appearance was a little different Right then,m everyone went to greet her but there was a sense of unfamiliarity. After moving seats, Trevor said, "Sit down please!" Meanwhile, Alicia was driving on the road. When she saw the hotel for the appointment, her phone rang. "East Bannpool? Okay, I know... I'll be there right away!"
The person Alicia was supposed to meet had gone there. She was familiar with East Banngoot. Shen didn't give it much thought and began to hit the pedal. Soon, she arrived at East Bannpool. She was relatively familiar with the place and reached the third floor in no time. Reims Hall? Rooms with names were no ordinary room. It must be a relatively high-end private room. Alicia walked along as she glanced at the room names. Fleur Hall? Crescent Hall...
It should be somewhere here! While she was looking for it, a burst of crackling and happy laughter could be heard from a room. Instinctively, Alicia turned her head and looked.
The door of one of the private rooms was ajar. Several exotic-looking men and women were dancing away A familiar figure in beige leaned forward on the sofa, chuckling. On the other side, there was also a familiar voice. It sounded like... Carson's! With one quick glance, Alicia was very sure that she saw Trevor and the woman who had just been with Frederick! She knew that Frederick must be one of those figures in the crowd! Did he bring that woman to meet his friends? Weren't they his ride-or-die friends?
