Chapter 1007
Due to the continuous crises previously, the two of them had kept the news about their child lowkey. They didn't
announce it to everyone even though it was good news, and only told Frederick's grandmother and the family
about it.
was easy for her.
Alicia's confinement period in the hospital wasn't that tormenting, as many of their friends and relatives cto
visit them, and Frederick stayed with her most of the tas well. Furthermore, there were many maids and
nannies appointed to take care of her baby, so it When the confinement period was over, she felt as free as a
bird. She took her cell phone over, and scrolled through everything, but all of sudden, she didn't know what else
she could do. In the end, she just put her cell phone away.
After checking through everything, Frederick went back to her side and draped a jacket over her shoulders,
tugging it.
"We're hosting a small-scaled one-month-old party for Clinton at htonight. It's about twe publicize it,
and grandma thinks so too. I've invited sof our friends over as well! However, I'm worried that we'll be a
little busy. You should rest if you need to, since you've just ended your confinement period, and shouldn't overly
exert yourself," Frederick said.
"All right, will Victoria come? Also, what about Miss Weil? She has been a big help to you, and we haven't even
expressed our gratitude yet! Also, I'm also very interested to see Lauren! She sounds like a legend," Alicia said.
Talented women tend to attract the admiration of others, especially since they were talented in subjects that
ordinary women were not usually good at, such as math and science subjects. Alicia just felt that they were not
only smart, but also brave!
She was involved in a criminal case, but she could still selflessly refer his case for help and did him justice. She
sounded like a righteous woman, and Alicia thought that they were people that were worthy of befriending.
Frederick reached out and pinched her cheeks. "You're a woman too!" How could she be interested in a woman?
That was ridiculous!
He shook his head lightly, then he said.

"I think Victoria can get down from the bed now, and she's part of the family, so Trevor will probably bring her.
However, I've also told Trevor that since we're a family, there aren't any rules, and he could decide based on the
situation! So many things have happened lately. Victoria's leg was almost amputated, and Trevor had been
tormented as well, plus the incidents that happened to me, so | told them to not mind it too much! I've invited
Lauren and Sharon through Willy, and they'll probably cif they have the tand if their health conditions
allow it! Lauren is pregnant, and Sharon is a forensic medical examiner, so she won't be able to confirm if she'll
have to deal with any cases by then, so it's up to fate! You won't have to be disappointed either, as you can
meet up with them whenever you want to in the future! There's plenty of time!" Frederick said.
Frederick stroked her hair and grabbed her waist as he said, "Nicholas had already brought mom and dad home,
so he'll definitely come! We'll go hfirst, and well see about the rest and just go with the flow!" "Well, okay!"
Alicia said.
The baby was still too young, so he was sleeping most of the time. They decided to put the baby into a baby
cradle, then arranged for bodyguards to guard the baby and lead the way for them, while the maids followed
them. Frederick carried the baby in one hand carefully while holding Alicia with his other hand, and they entered
the car quickly.
Soon, the picture of them walking out of the confinement centre was on the front page of the newspaper.
In the Clements family, Penny scrolled through her cell phone with an angry expression. It was true! They
already had a child, but no one knew about the news. They must've kept the secret very well!
She tried so many ways to prevent it, but she still failed!
D*mn it! He did it first again!
Wealthy families usually adored the eldest child and grandchild more, and the Clements family did too. Frederick
had the advantage, and unexpectedly, his first child was a son as well! His luck was too good! Even after all the
crises he had gone through, he was still doing fine!
D*mn it! Did that mean that he was going to inherit all of the riches of the Clements family in the future?
Thinking of her own son, Penny couldn't help but to let out a long sigh. What was she going to do in the future?
As the night fell, the lowkey but luxurious party began. It wasn't extravagant, but it was still grand. The guests
were all wealthy or famous people, and everyone was decked out, so it attracted a lot of attention.
As Trevor helped Victoria walking in the door, Alicia ran over and said, "Victoria, I'm so glad that you're here!"
She was about to hug her, when she stopped her movements suddenly as she remembered something.
Victoria was excited as well. She had just been able to walk, so she was finally allowed to get out of bed, and
even go to a friend's gathering. "Congratulations, Ally!"
Victoria went up to her and gave her big hug, and Alicia returned the hug carefully. She squinted her eyes and
asked, "Are you all right? Does it still hurt? How do you feel? You've grown a lot skinnier! So many things had
happened, and | really wanted to tell you about them, but | didn't get the chance. | wanted to go see you!"
"Yes,too!" Victoria said.
The two of them chatted excitedly, while Trevor supported Victoria from the back for the entire time, not daring
to let go at all.
He exchanged gazes with Frederick, and the both of them shook their heads. Frederick then said, "Just greet
each other first! You can catch up later once you're seated..."
They pulled the two of them apart, and Frederick ordered the maids to prepare sarmchairs. Just then, Willy
and Carson arrived with Lauren and Sharon.
He waved his hand at them, and the four of them walked over. After introducing themselves, Frederick expressed
his thanks.
"Thank you so much for the great
help this time, Miss Heady, Miss Weil. | wanted to express my
gratitude since a long tago, but so much had happened, and | could only say this today. If there's
e
anything that you need my help with, feel free to tellabout it Make yourself at home, and enjoy the party!"

He gave the two of them a toast, then downed his wine.
"You're being too modest, Mr. Clements..." they said.
They were each holding a cup of beverage, and they took a little sip.
Seeing that Trevor was worried about Victoria as he constantly held on to her, Willy remembered something, and
said, "Victoria can't stand for too long, and Laurie's pregnant. How about we let them take a seat and rest?"
Frederick nodded, then peered at the side as he said, "That's a good idea!"
After that, he sent the few women to take a seat at the lounge on the side, then ordered the maids to send them
sfruits and snacks, before leaving with the other men.
The four women sat together but were in silent. They stared at each other, and no one said a word for a long
time.
Lauren wasn't used to socializing to begin with, so she didn't know how to start the conversation. It was Sharon's
first tattending such a grand party; and it was her first tbeing at such a luxurious place as well. Hence,
she was a little nervous, and she didn't even know where to place her hands. Alicia looked at them curiously, and
forget to speak for a while. Meanwhile, Victoria didn't dare to start the conversation, because she wasn't the host
and she didn't understand much about them.
For a very long time, the four of them sat together awkwardly.
However, Lauren kept staring at Alicia unconsciously. As soon as Victoria noticed the two of them staring at each
other, she nudged Alicia lightly to give her a reminder.
She was supposed to be the host, so why was she daydreaming? Shouldn't she be entertaining the guests?
Alicia finally returned to her senses, and giggled
shyly.
"I'm so sorry! I've always admired people who were good in mathematics and sciences, but | didn't expect you to
be so young and pretty, Miss Heady. | was stunned for a while..." she said.
