Frederick was showing her was a quote from a great wise man. Alicia was inexplicably deeply moved by it. If the acquaintance and parting of her and Jeremy symbolized the ups and downs in the past, then the acquaintance and temporary parting of her and Frederick would be the ups and downs in the recent days, and here she was, together with him. Did it mean that she would be able to stay together with him together, forever? Without a doubt, the words resonated in her heart.
Frederick intended to indicate that their future might not be that smooth and easy. He hoped that she would recall these words when she was experiencing ups and downs in the future. With no resentments and regrets, welcoming their happy future. Alicia leaned on him and put her arm around his neck. She was happily rubbing on his chin constantly.
"Hubby, we're happier than them! We are living in harmony. I believe that no matter what happens, we will be able to overcall the obstacles together, right?" Thinking that they had already gone through their lowest point in life, at that moment, Alicia was full of confidence. The worst scenawould be, they'll start all over again from scratch. No big deal! Frederick lowered his head and kissed her lips then hugged her to him. He replied, "Of course!" "Ally, I meant every word I said to you. No matter how long it takes, I'll keep my promise. You must remember that I love you forever!" Frederick pinched her chubby cheeks then caressed her bright forehead.
"I love you too... Hehe, hubby, isn't this too cheesy for an old married couple like us?" "It's fine. What's important is that you know that I love you and care about you..." With his eyes closed, Frederick's mood beca little heavy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlicia noticed his melancholy but did not point it out. She hooked her arm around his neck and changed the subject.
"Then grantthe pledge of love!" Her words were light and gentle, yet it felt like a thunderbolt that had struck Frederick. In the past, he would have turned into a beast immediately, but at that moment, he was stiff and rigid.
For a slight moment, Alicia was certain that... He did not want to touch her! But feeling the heat from his body, she quickly pushed that thought away, "Hubby?" Unknowingly, she frowned. Her thoughts were muddled. Why do I feel that there's something wrong with him? It seems that he has something in mind.
Frederick suddenly cto his senses, and he realized his slip. With a faint smile, he adjusted his arms and lowered her down to the bed. He gave her a lingering kiss, yet he secretly reached out for his cell phone. As the temperature rose around them, a loud and clear ringtone sounded.
Moving off her, Frederick pretended to be unhappy and cursed, "D*mn it! What now?!" His words dispelled Alicia's doubts immediately when she saw his desire and irritation at being disturbed. Getting up, Alicia pulled up her pajamas and chuckled before going to comfort him.
"Go ahead! We are not in a hurry, I'll wait for you!" Frederick had already pressed the end call button and said, "It must be about the project. I need to call him back immediately!" Frederick got dressed and went into the study room. Since he was there, he took the opportunity to review his entire plan from beginning to end.
Frederick took a deep breath and buried his head in his knuckles, "If there is no progress on the antidote, I have no other choice!" However, there was still hope! If he had to choose, poison was more manageable than having a tumor. Poison could be detoxified. A brain tumor on the other hand... was too scary to comprehend. Comforting himself, Frederick becmore determined with his decision.
Gently touching the wedding ring on his fingers, he kissed it. "I hope that one day, you would understand my painstaking efforts!" He couldn't tell her the truth, otherwise, the consequences would be inconceivable.
Frederick gradually unclenched his fists, got up, and switched off the lamp before he walked to the door.
That day after a company meeting, Frederick called Carson again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter the call, he inadvertently looked at Chet, who was sitting opposite him. As they looked at each other, Chet read his emotions. "Still no solution?" "No poison is present in the analyzed substances and the composite substances. However, the effects appear once it enters the body. Carson said that they have already been working overtand hit a wall. This was the first tthat they have encountered such a situation! It was unbelievable that they aren't able to culture the ssubstance for analysis." Frederick clenched his fits tightly, so furious that he started to grit his teeth.
"I don't know who developed such a monstrous drug. But why did it have to be used on her? Why didn't she use it on me?" "Frederick, stop blaming yourself. No one can understand the thoughts of a mad person! Normal people would want to leave their loved ones in peace. Miss Randolph is mad for harming others without any benefits! Perhaps in her heart, everyone in the world owes her, therefore she had never thought about giving back..." At the end of the day, she did not even realize what she owed the man in front of her! She was not worthy of sympathy! How could such an evil person have a conscience and be faithful to her promises? Chet paused for a while and said,
"Frederick, do you have to do this? She is dying. What if she doesn't have any antidote in her hands? What if stre's lying and doesn't give you the antidote after half a year? How can you deal with a dead person? Is it worth hurting Alicia like this?" "I have thought it through! Do you ove
think I blindly believe her and place all my bets on her? At the very least, she should be able to keep Alicia alive for the next few months, and her condition doesn't worsen! What we need is more time! If she could provide more information about the drugs or the antidote, I believe that it will be helpful to overcthis crisis! As for Ally, even if she knows about my plan, she may not agree with my decision. Her condition is worsening. We can't afford any more delays!" doedd ensure that Nodding reluctantly, Chet responded, "I understand, I'll do my best to cooperate with you! Luckily grandma is not around and Mr. Nick is in Bayton City, how about..." His days were about to be shackled with two more chains again.
"So, all we need to do is to wait for Miss Randolph's call, right?"
Frederick looked at Chet and was om about to open his mouth when a familiar ringtone rang. As his eyes fell on the cellphone, his expression suddenly changed. "Speak of the devil, and here she comes." She was unexpectedly prompt.
At this moment, Frederick couldn't untangle his emotions! No turning back now...
