Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Kieran was livid as he sat on the couch. If he'd know this would happen, he wouldn't have pushed Danica to imitate those other paintings to earn a quick buck! He had no idea who exposed the paintings and even posted it online! Amidst the controversy, even if he held another painting exhibition, he was sure that no one would buy the paintings! Since this was an all out attempt and his family was in the situation where they were unable to make ends meet, he was unable to cup with that huge sum of money! Kieran was worried about the expenditure they would have to incur, but Danica was more worried that she would be tainted and be given the boot from the painting industry. Her reputation that she had worked so hard to build would be destroyed. Besides painting, she had nothing else! Ever since she was young, her parents had always wanted her to study management, but she was not interested. Later, her parents had encouraged her to cultivate talents and hoped that she could find a good family in the future that would be able to take over the family's business.

Everything was going smoothly, but six years ago, everything slowly started going downhill. The family business began to decline and she tried her best to save it. Now it seemed that it was a drop in the ocean Her love life was also ruined.

Danica was furious at the thought of this! If she hadn't fallen for Frederick back then, she would not be suffering right now. However, she'd been completely sincere about her relationship with him! Danica was really confused.

On the other side, Kieran was also making various plans. After thinking about it, he spoke, "Danica, let's try our best to cut our losses! It doesn't seem likely that you would be able to sell your paintings anymore, so you don't have to plan anything in that aspect! The most important thing is that we have to make up for this loss! Also, you're not young anymore. You must work hard to find a man to marry now that you're at the twilight of your youth! Of course, your prcandidate is Frederick! Look at Soaver International, there are so many companies that are unable to catch up to them! None of the companies can compete with them! If he truly is not a viable option, we'll have to look for another man!" Based on how accurately Frederick was able to predict the stock market no matter how bad it was, if he had the capital or even if he borrowed money for capital, he would still be able to make a quick comeback. What's more, Soaver International's investments were very diversified. If this went on, they probably wouldn't even be affected by a financial crisis! Frederick was really good at what he did! He had misjudged this person! He was arrogant, conceited, and didn't have any of his family's support. Yet he managed to reach such heights in the industry! If he had known this earlier, he would not have sacrificed Frederick's relationship with Danica for money! It took him less than a year to get back to his former glory! In this world, there was no cure for regret! At this moment, although Keiran felt that the situation was not very favourable, but he was very afraid of making the smistakes and did not dare to let Danica give up easily.

At first, she thought her father was being selfish, but after hearing what he said, Danica could sense his affection and held back her dissatisfaction.

"I know. I'll think of another way!" "I think we're rushing into things, don't you?" After pondering for a moment, Kieran continued speaking.

"In fact, we can change our strategy. For example, we should try to take advantage of him first! Who knows, maybe once we becrich, he would take the initiative to treat us well! Last time, we did not have much funds and lacked time. If we actively invest, and if the share price goes up, we would be able to cash out and acquire several of our companies! No wonder someone is willing to pay five million dollars fo a meal with him! It's so easy to make money just by saying a few words!" Kieran continued in a serious tone.

"Let's take a step back for awhile and in the mean time, you can take a breather. I'll inquire more about his recent activities and see if I can strike up a conversation with him to ask him about the share market. It's better to buy a couple more shares! You don't have to worry about this mess, let the lawyer solve this, hopefully they would be able to cup with a way to cut our losses! You can just announce to the public that it was the worker's fault and that they ruined your painting! In turn, they took your draft painting while you were not watching! Just push the blto them!" en.s"You have to think about it carefully. How did you and Frederick get along in the past? What moved him the most? It's best to leave a deep impression and move him! As long as he let his guard down, not only will you, have the chance to rekindle your relationship with him, but we would also get the chance to make money! Why don't you go out and do sshopping, try to lift your spirits up? I have faith in you. I firmly believe that we would be able to impress him! We have to stay calm! Frederick is not short of money and it so happens that we are short of it! Money, to him, might not be very important! That is why you have to think carefully. You have to put in a little more effort!" to en.sDanica was enlightened by her father's wisdom. At that moment, Danica no longer felt gloomy. Instead, a smile appeared on her face.

"I know! Dad, I will try my best! I also believe that our efforts would not be in vain!" Alicia had been in the hospital for about 2 weeks. On the day she was discharged, Frederick brought Mrs. Blanchard along. When she heard what happened to her daughter, she immediately burst into tears. "Why did you not tellsooner? Where are you injured? Lettake a look!" Alicia, who was holding her mother's hand, giggled.

"I'm all healed now. Mom, don't worry about me! It wasn't that we didn't want to tell you, it's just that it was such a small matter we didn't want you to worry! Look at me, the only thing I have been doing is eating and sleeping. I'm all good now, in fact, I even put on sweight." If her mother knew that she'd been injured, she would've been agitated! What if she couldn't bear it and something bad happened to her? What were they going to do? As Alicia held on to her mother, she breathed a sigh of relief. It was a good thing that things had turned out fine! "Oh, you! You better not hide anything fromin the future!"

As Mrs. Blanchard thought about it, she felt a lump in her throat. The m daughter that she had pampered had suffered a lot over the past few years. It must be hard on her. She was in need of good fortune! She was so distressed that she could not bear it!

When Frederick saw the mother daughter duo engaged in a conversation, he said, "I'll take care of the discharge formalities and bring the things down to the car. Ally, sit down and accompany your mother! Think about what you want to have for lunch as well!" Frederick left the room and closed the door behind him, allowing them sprivacy.

Alicia and her mother were the only ones left in the room. Alicia asked, "Mom, how's dad doing? I did not tell Frederick about dad!" Because of Jeremy's past, there was always a shadow and a burden in Alicia's heart.

"Your dad was asking about you a few days ago. I really thought you were busy! Your dad is getting

better, but he still needs someone to watch over him everyday. He must feel very uncomfortable and weak lying down all day! The doctor also said that he was in good health, but he's still in a lot of pain. He basically had to take his medicine every two hours! The doctor also said that there was no other way. He could only take painkillers for now to stop the pain. but he should feel better once he recovers. We're discussing whether it's possible to have him discharged from the hospital. We're spending a lot of money keeping him there and I'm sure there was someone in need of the hospital bed. The doctor also urged us to take him home. I was just thinking about discussing the matter with en.s you!" X
