Chapter 470
Jeremy picked up the landline phone beside the bed. At this moment, Lindsay switched on her mobile phone and replied to a few messages first then proceeded to dial Nerissa's number.
"Nerissa, it's me...
", She was still paying attention to the movements around her line of sight while she was on the call., Meanwhile, in Casterwich City, Alicia was busy cleaning up together with Freya. When she returned home, she was still furious. She wasn't insistent on staying behind that day, but she had been constantly waiting for Frederick's call., While soaking in the bathtub, her eyes were still locked onto her cell phone, she was unprecedentedly restless. She had been continuously sorting out her thoughts and she was also figuring out how to explain this matter to Frederick., She kept on checking her phone until eleven o'clock. She scrolled through his number several times, but in the end, she chose not to press it,
"Whatever! It's only a few days anyways!
", He must've been exhausted and it was probably inconvenient to call him since he was on a business trip. In addition, she wasn't in a hurry. However, before going to bed, she called Freya to ensure that she was doing fine., That night, she tossed and turned, and she couldn't fall asleep. She was speechless, and so was Freya, who was in Lovely Scent. A thousand miles away, Frederick had returned to his room and he was in a trance the whole time. The scene at the elevator flashed across his mind. He was also tossing and turning for a whole night..., This matter was constantly on Alicia's mind. The next day, she was so occupied that she felt dizzy. It was already afternoon when she found time for some rest. Looking at the time, she gave Freya a call first. While she was dialing the number, she felt very bored at home. Actually, she was very afraid that someone else would cause a scene at the store again, although sometimes it was just a few quarrels and all she had lost were only a few bottles and cans. The loss wasn't much, but her heart was aching because of it. Alicia even felt that she was losing her mind, let alone the person directly involved, Aunt Freya.
"That's good to hear! Then I'll come over after work and bring you some sandwiches. You don't have to cook dinner anymore... Okay!
", After she hung up the phone, Alicia sighed in relief.,
"I just have to endure this for two more days. When he comes back, I'll ask him to warn Sebastian for the sake of Aunt Freya. It'll be more effective if Frederick was the one who approached him instead of me!
" She thought.,
"I'll deal with that son of a b*tch when my aunt goes abroad and settles down!
", As she propped her chin up, various thoughts were still flashing across her mind. Just as she was fantasizing about someone's miserable state, her phone suddenly buzzed, which instantly brought her back to reality. All of a sudden, her heart almost gave out., She grabbed her phone and noticed that it wasn't her aunt calling. She took a deep breath, thumped her chest, and answered the call,
"Victoria, it's me!
",
"Ally, are you in Casterwich City?
", Victoria's anxious voice was noticeable, and Alicia was also shocked.
"Yeah! What's wrong?
",
"My friend is holding a fashion show in Lesterdam City. She started preparing for it a month ago. The ccess were processed in Casterwich City and delivered to me. I then delivered them to Lesterdam City for her! They were supposed to be used tomorrow, but she suddenly told me that I delivered the wrong ones. The boxes were filled with handicrafts. Then it came to me; my friend had sent me a pile of technical ornaments some time ago. I felt that it was occupying my place and was temporarily useless. I was afraid that it would get dirty, so I sealed it in a big box. I don't know how I sent it. Maybe I got them mixed up! However, I had no idea about it until now! The biggest problem is that I'm not in Casterwich City currently!
",
"Is it possible for you to head over to my house and send an express delivery for me? Make sure that it's delivered by tomorrow! The official rehearsal will begin in the morning, and it'll be used in the afternoon! Although they aren't valuable items, they're all customized according to the works. It isn't easy to come back! If you send it by today, it'll arrive in a jiffy by tomorrow since it's so close by! You've been to my house before; I even remember stealing your hand prints previously! God, if I'm not wrong, I'll have to find a professional company to open the door. I can't go back now since I am on a plane!
"
"Did you say Lesterdam City?
", As soon as she heard that it was in Lesterdam City, Alicia subconsciously checked the time on the computer.,
"Yes! It's Lesterdam City's Number One Hotel. He's going to set up a studio over there...
",
"Alright! I'll bring them over to you!
",
"Huh?
" Alicia's heroic words came out. On the other side, Victoria was stunned for a second or two and immediately replied in a touched manner
"Dear Ally, you're indeed my sweetheart! Why didn't I think of it! You really don't have to... You just need to help me open the door and I'll hire someone to send it over! It's faster this way!
" ,
"Haha, let me do it! I also have something to do along the way, so I don't think it's bothersome! Later, I'll take a photo of it for double confirmation. Don't be mistaken again...
", It was also an excuse for her to go to Lesterdam City. She thought that it was an opportunity to see Frederick as soon as possible. She was willing to come back earlier for the following day as well., After discussing the details, she hung up the phone and took in consideration the time before she booked the tickets. Later, she requested permission to leave in advance., On the way, she called Chet to inquire about the hotel that Frederick was staying in. Alicia pulled her suitcase and hurried to the station. She wasn't certain about the details of the situation as her priority was to help Victoria. She also didn't inform Frederick for the time being., It was already dark by the time she had arrived in Lesterdam City., In front of the station, Alicia handed over the items to the person that was hired, Cole, and both of them even shook hands.
"Miss Blanchard, thank you very much! The reservation has been made! I'll fetch you over to the hotel after dinner!
",
"I appreciate your generosity, but you really don't have to! I'm also entrusted by others. It's no big problem! My husband is on a business trip here anyways, so let's do this another time! On the contrary, I have a question for you. How do I get to the Bright Moon Hotel?
",
"Bright Moon Hotel? It's a famous five star-rated hotel in Lesterdam City! If that's the case, I won't pressure you any further. Hop in. I'll fetch you there! Just give me a buzz the next time you pay Lesterdam City a visit! That only applies if I'm still here though!
", Before she could say anything else, he had already taken the suitcase from her hand, so Alicia didn't refuse his offer., When they got out of the car, it was already half past eight in the evening. As she gazed at the magnificent and grand hotel, her gloomy mood instantly changed. After saying goodbye to Cole, she pulled her suitcase and walked in., However, an attendant stopped her at the door.,
"I came to see my husband. Why aren't you letting me in?
",
"My deepest apologies, Miss. All the guests here are either rich or noble. Mr. Clements is currently residing in a top VIP suite. Anyone can come and claim that they're his wife... or his sister or relative. Wouldn't that be a problem for us then? It'll be difficult for us to deal with them. Mr. Clements isn't back yet, so we can't possibly confirm your identity., Therefore, we can't let you in for the, time being. Please forgive us!
", , It sounded reasonable, but what if she chose to stay for the night? Would she be given the room then?,
"I'll give him a call. Could you wait for him at room A808's door? Is that fine with you?
", As soon as Alicia brought out her, cell phone number to dial his number, the attendant's attitude had suddenly switched. The manager immediately came and lightened up the situation.
"Is this how you entertain our guests? She's new around here and doesn't know the rules. Please don't mind her, I'll take you up...
