Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

"Back then, both of them had outstanding looks and good family backgrounds. Everyone could see their exceptional capabilities and naturally, they both had a bunch of suitors. Regarding Lindsay Crouch, I didn't hear of her having any close relationships with either one of them or if she did anything odd but a year ago, she suddenly cto Casterwich City and becMiss Blanchard's best friend." "Her intentions were really well hidden!" Frederick remarked. He figured that if she wasn't close to Alicia, it wouldn't be that easy to snatch her lover away! Chet smiled and nodded.

"You hit the point! When Miss Blanchard first got here, I guess it was hard for her. The wedding years ago had been planned to be very grand. Even if there were others who didn't know about her or the Blanchard family, they had definitely noticed her because of the wedding preparations! Following this, her family went bankrupt. Alicia had been dumped at the wedding as a wealthy daughter of a reputable family. All these pieces of news were on the headlines! Outsiders may have just treated them as a joke and just laughed at it but for her acquaintances, those that were jealous and envious of her-they were all gloating over it. From what I know, Miss Blanchard didn't have any close friends for those two years and she totally cut off her past life! Thus, when she met someone from her past at this new place who took care of her..." "She just stupidly devoted herself to that person?" Frederick completed the sentence bitterly.

It was easy to guess. From Alicia's appearance, she appeared to be proud and beautiful, and many found her hard to approach. However, deep down, she was just a little girl who was kind and innocent. She would repay even the tiniest of favors with her best efforts.

Although she could be capricious at times, she was very sincere towards others and was very observant. She knew when to be sensible and was tenacious and firm, which made him felt addicted to her. "When it comes to this, you can't really blMiss Blanchard! I got wind of this information which said that this past year, Lindsay did her best to earn her trust! She would drive over in the middle of the night just to help her! If you put yourself in Miss Blanchard's shoes, you would find that no one could resist these zealous acts! To Miss Blanchard, Lindsay would definitely have credit for hard work if not good work! According to Miss Blanchard's intellect and beauty, she wouldn't simply accept help from men!" Otherwise, she wouldn't have given Frederick her virginity! "I'm afraid she never expected Lindsay to have a secret motive, going after Jeremy behind her back!" "Speaking of this, it's a little weird because Jeremy just cback from overseas this year! That's right, I think it was right about the tyou met Miss Blanchard! You can only say that their relationship developed in leaps and bounds! I suspect that those two already had an affair and you can presthat Lindsay got close to Miss Blanchard with an ulterior motive, not abruptly! You don't say, this ruthless woman's plan was really scary!" Sorting it out, Chet broke into a cold sweat. How scheming did this woman have to be to lay low for that long? All of that just for one man; it was all so unbelievable to him! "By the way, I suddenly recalled something. The night you were with Miss Blanchard, coincidentally, Graham Crouch, Lindsay's stepfather, was having a birthday party in the shotel! Do you think that Miss Blanchard was there for the party that day? After all, they hadn't fallen out with each other yet during that period of time!" If that was the case, then Miss Blanchard may have been set up by someone, which explained why she appeared in Frederick's room. At that instant, everything was adding up.

Tapping his fingers on the table, Frederick shared his point of view. "Stepfather?" What a scheming woman Lindsay was! Should he thank her for bringing Alicia to him? Thinking again, everything suddenly made sense to Frederick.

This situation must have sobscure complications, otherwise, given her intentions, she would never have thought of giving Alicia to him. Why would she do this? When Frederick realized that the plan was to let Alicia be defiled by someone else, he was instantly filled with ice-cold rage.

At this moment, Chet's voice sounded again.

"Speaking of Lindsay Crouch, she must really be something. Rumors say that Graham Crouch was lowborn and although he was motivated, it was hard to gain a foothold in Casterwich City. His family circumstances were terrible but he had high self-esteem. When he was young, he often hit obstacles. He was a true loser, it was said that he couldn't find a partner even in his mid-years. He must have accepted reality in the end because he married Lindsay's mother! Thus, Lindsay Crouch is actually the daughter of her mother and her ex-husband." With his curiosity piqued, Chet sat up straight and started talking freely. "The Crouch family is actually really interesting! If I hadn't told you anything, I bet you would've never imagined—" "Stop it, enough with the suspense! Mr. Reynes, do you want everyone to know just how nosy you are?" Wasn't he becoming a tattler because of Frederick's requests? Speechless, Chet gave a little cough before continuing.

"You can tell that Lindsay has a beautiful mother from her looks, who should still be quite young! After her marriage to Graham Crouch, the two of them had shappy days and gave birth to a daughter! But those days only lasted for a few years and apparently, poverty is something that consumes marriages! Lindsay's mother abandoned her two daughters and eloped with a rich man! Understandably, in this situation, the anger would be vented on the abandoned children. Lindsay was no exception; she got hit and did tough work but after a few years, the situation changed. Graham Crouch doted on his adoptive daughter very much; I heard that he pampered her more than his biological daughter. Can you imagine how smart Lindsay must be?" Chet took a breath before he continued with his story.

"However, this may also be linked to when Graham Crouch won the lottery and becrich! The Crouch family is what they are today because of that lottery. Good days eventually cand he becrich. He then married his current wife and had a son in his old age! All the good things cat the stas his business also started taking off!" While analyzing the whole picture, Chet made a guess.

"Maybe, he was afraid of being accused of mistreating his adoptive daughter! He no longer lacked money anyway! Therefore, be treated M Lindsay quite well and supported her to college. It seems that she is stil relying on her family's support as she is idle and has no decent job. She considers herself the 'princess' of the Crouch family and lives extravagantly..." X
