As she spoke, Mrs. Blanchard could not help but sigh.

"It would be great if your brother was here! It would be more convenient if we had another man in the house! Ally, when you have kids in the future, you're going to need to sacrifice a couple of years to take care of your kid. Once you miss a significant tin your child's life, you cannot turn back time. I didn't dare to mention this to your father just now, but his wish is for you to succeed in life! You have to take whatever help you can get even if it's from a stranger. Even if you are blood related, you would still be distant after spending a long tapart!" She didn't want her to make the smistake again! She stroked Alicia's hair, and Mrs. Blanchard smiled again. "So, I've discussed with your father that we would buy or rent a house near where you would live once you get married. As long as we are nearby, you'd have someone to help you, won't you? It's just that we can't help you now. Instead, we've beca burden to you!" "Mom, what are you talking about? You took care ofwhen I was young, now it's my turn to take care of you. Isn't it my duty as a daughter to take care of my parents? Mom, let's find a new place for you to move in. Once you've settled down, we'll bring Dad hfrom the hospital. I'll let Frederick know. That way, we would have an extra hand!" They left the room once they were was done confiding in each other. Later, the three of them headed over to the hotel. They even did a prayer before they had lunch.

In the afternoon, Frederick made arrangements to help Mrs Blanchard relocate. At the stime, Alicia had also called Marshall to get Frederick to arrange for someone to bring her father hfrom the hospital.

During the entire process, Frederick was a little shocked and confused.

Initially, he thought that Alicia's mother had found a boyfriend. It was only after he cback that he found out that Alicia's father was still alive and had just woken up not too long ago. He had been living in a nursing hfor three years.

Suddenly, he thought back to the twhen she worked hard to make money. She had lost her temper a few times with him because of money. Suddenly, Frederick realized something.

Why was she so hellbent on making so much money? He had never seen her buy any luxury goods! So, why did she work so hard to make money when she never spent it? It turned out that she was not a money grubber nor did she want to have a sense of security. It was because... she needed to pay for her father's medical expenses! Three years! She had to take care of her mother and her family with the money that she earned. She also had to pay for her father's medical expenses. When he thought about it, Frederick could just see the life that she'd lived.

Her monthly salary was only about thirty thousand dollars! Even though she had only stayed at the hospital for less than a month, her bills cup to 500,000 dollars because she was admitted to the VIP ward. The daily medical expenses and examination fees were at least 10,000 dollars! Judging by how much she earned a month, as well as her mother's meager salary and the amount of commitments she had, it was no wonder she had to earn extra incby dancing at the nightclub. This was the reason why she was willing to stand until she got injured for the sake of 20,000 dollars.

On this day, she was busy with preparations. She made dinner reservations at the Lavender Garden. By the tthey were done with their lunch, Martin was pushed over to their table in a wheelchair. They were finally able to have a reunion dinner! Frederick felt extremely guilty. He had always thought that her father had passed away because Alicia never mentioned him.

At the dining table, the two men had water instead of wine, and enjoyed a lovely conversation.

Although Martin has been bedridden for a few years, his memory was still exceptional. He was knowledgeable, experienced in society and had run a business. Therefore, they were quite congenial with each other. However, Frederick still felt nervous because this was his first tmeeting Alicia's father even though he was sitting in a wheelchair.

Once they were done with their meal, they immediately brought Martin back home. They followed the doctor's advice and worked together to move him back to his bed.

"Dad, Mom, the nurse and servant that I have hired will start work tomorrow! Mom, sorry to trouble you tonight! If you need anything, just givea call! I'll ask Carson to find a medical expert to cand check on you. It's a failure on my part for not being able to fulfil my duty as your son-in-law. Please forgive me!" He assumed that Martin was dead! It was a huge misunderstanding! "What are you talking about? Frederick, it's our fault for not telling you! We have troubled you for the whole day You should head hIt's just that Martin cannot move. Don't worry about it, I can handle it! Go back and rest early! You'@better leave with Ally! Once we've fully settled down, I'll invite you guys over for a meal! Go on!" to en.sShe did not mind that the place was not luxurious. Now that she had her own home, she did not have to worry about moving anymore. Mrs. Blanchard felt grateful about this.

They had been busy the whole day and they were tired. So, they decided to go home.

When they got home, Alicia carefully wrapped up her wound and then went to take a shower. When she emerged from the bathroom, she saw Frederick sitting on the couch in a daze. He seemed a little absentminded.

Alicia vaguely felt that something was amiss ever since they arrived home. As soon as she approached him, she saw that he had opened a bottle of wine. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat as she sat beside him. She felt a little apprehensive.

"Hubby, are you unhappy?" Alicia asked.

They hadn't delayed his work by asking him to help with her father, had they? Alicia suddenly realized that she should have given him a head's up, but at the time, she just wanted to get it over and done with so that she did not need to bother him again.

Frederick picked up his glass of wine, swirled it around and emptied the contents in his glass as he suppressed the surging emotions in his heart.

Alicia pursed her lips and felt a surge of emotion vibrating through her being. She unconsciously rubbed her hands together. Was it that he felt burdened by her family's situation? In the past three years, she had burdened him more than once.

Occasionally she would break down, especially after her recent blind dates. She was always treated with disdain or people would tell her to stay away from her family. However, she would never neglect them. She had once lived a luxurious life for twenty years. If she had to choose between her parents or her boyfriend, she would always choose the former, regardless whether she was with Jeremy or Frederick.

Alicia was wondering whether Frederick was feeling the sway.

She remained silent as lent as she felt that ment she was being eaten alive inside. En Just as she was feeling very disappointed, she felt a hand wrapped around her waist. The next second, she was held in his arms.

"You did not tellabout your father. How do you expectto be happy? What else are from.

you? Is this the still hiding reason why you've been working so hard all these years? Is it because you had to take care of your father's medical expenses?" Judging by his questioning tone, Alicia could vaguely tell how he was feeling. Frederick was angry, yet he felt sorry for her. She could have told him, but why didn't she? It turned out that her father was still el.m

alive, though he was bedridden. He realized that the one the had seen her in mourning clothes was because her grandmother had passed! He had indeed overlooked the details! If it weren't for what happened this evening, he would not have found out that her father was still alive! en.sOther than Jeremy, he did not mind about the rest of her past. Therefore, he didn't think too much about it. What he cared about was her present and future! Therefore, when he saw that she and her mother were dependent on each other, he felt that it was right to just let them live a good life! All of a sudden, he realized that she did not seem to trust him, which was why she didn't tell him anything! He felt terrible thinking about this! "I still have an older brother..."
