Frederick's heart sank the moment his eyes met Alicia. He wondered, "What are you trying to imply, Alicia?" Not only did she not care about him being swarmed by the women, but she even wanted to watch for amusement.
At this moment, the two young ladies stood in front of Frederick; one on the left while the other on the right. They took the initiative to extend their hands, but they seemed a little timid, "Mr. Clements, my nis Rosie, I'm a model from Red Star Entertainment Entertainment and I'm seventeen this year!" "JSimpson. I'm nineteen," said the other.
Alicia couldn't stop staring at them while they introduced themselves. She thought, "No wonder they look so young! I guess it's true that youngsters are bold." Similarly, Frederick voiced his thoughts.
"Were you not educated on how to dress appropriately? You both should go back to school and learn again. It's such a shame!" His words were harsh and cruel. The ladies' faces almost turned white in an instant. Then, Rosie decided to cover her chest while Jpulled at the hem of her skirt. They hurriedly left in embarrassedly with tears in their eyes.
Alicia was still in a daze when a big hand had circled around her waist and Frederick said, "What kind of wife are you? How could you casually jeopardize your husband, Alicia?" Judging from his cold tone and the weight of his arm around her waist, she could tell that his mood had becbetter. Alicia laughed while she placed her hand around his waist. "Jeopardizing you? Are you sure? I thought you enjoyed the view of their exposed skin?" Although the two ladies each had worn a slightly low-class dress and their makeup wasn't as classy as the rest, they still stood out with their attractive appearances and voluptuous body shapes. One had a deep cleavage, while the other had long and slender legs that were covered in white. Obviously, both of them knew their strong suits! Adding on to their self-claimed ages, they were really exceptional. If they had fine-tuned their makeup and outfit, they might have been even more stunning. After all, youngsters tend to overdress themselves, but they never realized that it's unsuitable for them.
When Frederick's expression had darkened, Alicia quickly hid her playful expression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe spoke coquettishly, "I can smell their perffragrances on you. It's rose and laurel fragrance, how pungent! Frederick, you have such good taste. Why should I even be worried? Earlier, you might have broken their hearts! Never mind, I'm happy!" His words were so harsh and he wasn't giving them a chance at all.
Frederick had done the sto her when they had met for the very first time. He detested people, which made people doubt themselves. The thought of it made Alicia lower her head as she looked down on her long dress and flattened her collar over and over again.
Frederick mellowed out shortly after he pinched her delicate chin, and then the corner of her lips had curled into a smirk.
"If you're so smart, I won't need to hold back. You're not even that mature, yet you're already flirting with others... If you were my precious daughter, I'd rather have a stick as my daughter over you." Alicia coughed as a mouthful of drink almost spurted out of her mouth upon hearing his heartless words.
At that moment, she knew she had mistaken. The person in front of her was simply too elegant! Then, a pair of familiar figures suddenly appeared in the middle of their conversation, and the smile on Alicia's mouth suddenly froze. She subconsciously pinched Frederick.
"What's the matter?" Frederick asked.
Alicia cback to her senses and shook her head. She caught someone approaching them at the corner of her eye and said, "I just remembered something very important and I forgot to tell Vicki about it. I'm going out to make a phone call." "Okay... Don't wander too far." After stepping away from Frederick, Alicia strode to a corner on the other side of the hall.
Before she had completely distanced herself from Frederick, a familiar voice echoed behind her. "Hello, I'm Sebastian. Nice to meet you! This is my assistant and personal secretary, Kianna." "You're quite well-known, Mr. Clements. It's my greatest privilege to meet you today!" A delicate female voice could be heard as Alicia slowed down her pace. She glanced at the young woman who was attired in a black-and-white dress. She seemed capable and bright. Alicia clenched her fists and her fingernails pierced her palms. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Sebastian was nearly fifty years old, yet he still looked handsand cheerful. He was once together with Freya, but now, he was with a bright and beautiful 20-year-old lady who was also popular among her peers. It was obvious that the latter was trying to seduce him.
Alicia wasn't certain if Sebastian still remembered Freya, but she really despised him.
After she'd reached the other side, Alicia stood at a corner that was covered with decorations. She saw a few people gathered around Frederick. They were whispering and gossiping with each other, and everyone had a smile on their face. It seemed that they were having a very pleasant chat.
Every tAlicia looked at Sebastian, she felt like there were needles that had pierced into her heart.
"There's no such thing as justice in this world!" Alicia thought to herself.
Sebastian, who was once unknown, had almost lost his hdue to poverty and he couldn't even afford to buy a decent gift for Freya. For the couple of decades that he had spent with Freya, he hadn't been able to give her a proper wedding. Instead, he had involved her in many of his personal problems? Sadly, Freya had still pitied him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow, he was an invincible man who was living an extravagant life and accompanied by a beautiful woman. On the other hand, Freya was still striving hard to earn a living for herself! Sebastian was a vicious beast who wasn't concerned about Freya's well-being after all that she had done for him.
The two of them had gone through harsh and happy moments together, yet Freya was nowhere to be seen in the picture the moment he becrich. He really had no conscience or pity for her at all.
Aunt Freya was foolish! The man who she had helped was currently depriving her of all her rights. He wasn't grateful to her, not even the slightest. Everything that she had done in her life for him was merely his stepping stone.
As she stared into the distance, Alicia was enraged and fuming with anger.
She took a deep breath and turned away with her eyes closed. "I hope people like Sebastian will suffer a tragic death! His next life will be full of karma too!" She cursed in a low tone before remembering that she had to call Victoria.
"Why aren't you attending a grand fashion party? Did you pay your boyfriend a visit instead? Gosh, are you even taking your job seriously?" "Whatever, it doesn't matter anymore. I happened to be here to handle saffairs, so I stayed for one more day." She and Victoria were gossiping over the phone as usual. Alicia could've sensed her happiness and she was also happy for Victoria.
"Hey, are you really bringing your boyfriend to meet your parents? You guys are progressing rather fast! Didn't you say that your whole family is migrating to Canada? In that case, don't you have to cback and forth every month? Are you guys getting engaged?" If that was the case, he would've chosen to settle down with Victoria already!
Victoria replied, "Yes! So now we're trying to reschedule everything. It's impossible for my parents to agree without meeting him first. Besides that, did you know that they've even arranged a blind date forbefore I left? They urgedevery day! The last guy was a playboy. I must be out of my mind to end up with someone like him. No matter how handsor rich a man is, what's the point if they're a playboy? It really madespeechless."
The party's music was very loud, and Alicia felt that it wasn't a good tfor them to chat further. She om hesitated as she wanted to say something, but then she changed her mind and said, "The party is about to start. Let's stop here for now! When I'm back, let's have dinner together when were free. I have a lot of things in line for you!"
Right when Alicia hung up the phone, a sweet voice of a woman was heard from the other end of the hall. "There are more red and blue designs this tthan there usually is. I really like all of them, and they're all limited-edition products. Sebastian, could you please get both of them for me?" "Okay, I'll buy them if you like them that much, Kianna." X
