Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Frederick grabbed it and passed it to Alicia, then he checked around the toy bear. It seemed like it was just an ordinary toy, and it even had a tag on it. Nothing seemed odd.

Her gaze trembled slightly while she held the card. Suddenly, she had an image in her mind.

It was a beautiful little girl in a dress with a rough boy. They were sitting under a tree by the rocky roadside with a lollipop in their mouths. The girl pouted.

"Why do you givea toy bear every year?" She said.

Every time, the boy would scratch his head and say, "What? Don't you like this the most?" "But it's the severy year, even the color is the same! You don't remember! You don't love me...' "Okay, hold it right there! How can I not adore you? For next year's birthday, I'll buy you a bigger one!" "Nicholas, do you know how old I am? Why would you givea toy bear again? I'm already twice as tall, but your toy bear is still the same! Every year, I say that the presents are the same, but you still givethe sthing next year. It's as if you don't care about anything..." "I just remember that you like this... You even cried a few days because of it! Alright now, don't be upset! I don't know how to pick anything else for you, you know! When I make money in the future, I'll just give you a bank card on your birthday. The password will be your birthday and my birthday. You can buy whatever you like. Is that alright?" "That's more like it. I can open a toy shop in the future. It would be opened specially just to sell the toy bears you gave me!" In her mind, the voices from the past were still ringing. Alicia looked at the bunch of numbers on the card and the familiar looking toy bear.

It had the scurly hair, the sshade of brown and it was the exact ssize of 40 cm! Squeezing the bear, a lump formed in her throat, "Nicholas, it's Nicholas..." So, he still remembered her birthday! Did he know where she lived? He was still in Casterwich City! Did he earn good money? Did that mean that he was having a good time? If so, why didn't he contact her? Holding the bear, she subconsciously moved it close to her like how she would when she was a child, and nuzzled it.

Frederick wanted to ask her who sent it to her, but upon hearing her muttering, he understood immediately and turned around to hug her from behind. "Happy birthday, Sweetheart!" Alicia's gaze moved away from the toy bear and she saw a huge bouquet of white and red roses. In the middle of the bouquet was a card that wrote "love". Where did he get such a huge bouquet? How could she not have noticed? She hugged him back before she turned her head. Her voice was a little hoarse and said, "Hubby?" "I haven't given you a birthday present yet!" Then, he lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips. Frederick pushed her back to her room and took out a diamond watch. He put it on her wrist.

"Happy birthday! I hope that you will be happy every minute of every day for the rest of your life! Let's be together forever!" He said.

After that, he even kissed her gently on the back of her hand! "Yes! You have always lovedso much, and I, too, will love you forever!" She threw herself into his arms and couldn't help but twitch her nose. On her birthday, she was so happy that she was in a mess, and that night was beautiful and unforgettable.

The next day, when she arrived at the company, Alicia first recorded the card number on her mobile phone. Then, she opened the web page of the bank from memory and tried to log into the online banking system. Wrong password? She tried again with a different combination but it was still wrong! What was the use of giving her a bank card number then? Just as she was confused, she heard footsteps, and she instinctively closed the web page.

"Good morning, Alicia!" "Morning!" As Miriam sat down, she threw a sweet at her. Then, she suddenly screamed as she remembered something, "Oh, I almost forgot! Alicia, I received an express mail yesterday on your behalf, but I forgot to give it to you! It seems to be sent from the bank! I don't know if it's a bill or not, but I hope it didn't mess anything up!" After she rifled through her desk, Miriam handed over a file and flattened it out a little. Alicia was quite puzzled and said, "Thank you!" It was now already an era where electronic bills were used. Moreover, she was not in debt, and it had been quite stsince she last purchased anything with her credit card. Why would she suddenly receive a bill out of the blue? She looked at the address and found that it was indeed the company's address. She opened it and saw a USB key inside. Suddenly, she understood what it was.

It was from Nicholas! He separated the card's password from the USB key because he was afraid of an accident. Suddenly, she understood the meaning of the other set of letters and numbers on the card.

"love521" should be the password of the online banking system! Plus, their birthday combination should be the password of this USB key! Then, Alicia inserted the passwords, and indeed, they worked! There were six zeros, could it be one million dollars? Hence, Alicia couldn't believe her eyes. She rubbed her eyes and counted again, "What did he do? Where did he get so much money?" She quickly changed the password as she thought that there might be someone who was spying on her. She felt reassured to know that she had someone to back her up. Just as she was tidying things up, a scream sounded.

"Holy sh*t! Look! Mr. Clements has leaked his wedding photos! How could he, who was never not close to any woman, suddenly be married?" "Really?" The office was in an uproar and Alicia was shocked too. She hadn't even chosen the pictures yet, so how could they be leaked already? No way. She hadn't even settled down at her job, and yet someone was stirring up trouble again? After a quick Google search, a beautiful side profile cinto her view, and her heart fell to the ground.

They were right, but it was obvious that the photos had been edited. She

was slim and slender. She wore a white wedding dress and half of her body was leaning on Frederick's shoulder. It was surreal, and besides the curvaceous and exquisite figure, no one could see her face. However, most of Frederick's face could be seen. In his photos, except for his eyebrows that were slightly trimmed in shape, he had no makeup on. His appearance and temperament were better than any supermodel, and he looked very handsome! After looking at the photo for quite stime, even Alicia realized that she was kind of obsessed with him.

At the time, her colleagues were scrolling through their respective phones and computers as they started chatting away.

"How unbelievable! Master Frederick was taken off the market earlier than Master Trevor? Who is this woman? She looks so enchanting! I'm so tempted to know what kind of woman she is to be able to conquer Mr Clements. I really want to see her beautiful face!" Miriam screamed, and everyone's eyes turned to Alicia at the stime. She stepped forward and said, "Alicia, you and Mr. Clements..." As soon as Miriam spoke, Alicia knew that sooner or later she would not be able to hide it any longer. Then, she immediately laughed dryly.

"That's right! It's all in progress! If there's any good news, I will inform everyone!" She said.

Because the wedding arrangements were not set yet, she dared not say much. After all, there were still a few months left, and the Clements family was no ordinary family. "Wow! Alicia, it's really you! You're really my idol!" Miriam rolled over in her office chair and held Alicia's hand. She was very excited.

"Shh! Keep your voice down! I don't want to end up a joke since it's not set for sure yet! So, for the tbeing, keep it a secret for me!" Alicia pouted sadly, and the rest of them nodded.

"I get it! What a happy event! No wonder Soaver International made such a big move. They even took down Yoker Trading Group!" "Yoker Trading Group?" Why did it sound so familiar?

"Don't you know, Alicia? Their representative was doing business with Soaver International and harassed one of the female employees before he got knocked out. This incident was even reported on the news! I heard that he's still in the hospital! Plus, the Yoker Trading Group's stock has fallen for several days in a row!" X
