Alicia was in a trance from the moment before she heard a familiar voice outside the door., When she came to her senses, she was still in a daze. Her heart was heavy, and she no longer felt the joy and excitement of wanting to see him that she initially had.

"Ally, are you in there? Can you come out...

", She got up slowly and looked at the time. She smirked at her reflection in the mirror. Only after doing this did she drag her suitcase out of the bathroom slowly. Throughout the whole time, her face was as dark as a storm, and she was frowning the entire time., Even a fool could tell that she was unhappy, so Frederick took her suitcase and asked,

"Why didn't you inform me before you arrived? When did you get here?

",

"I almost got into trouble again!

" He thought., He was so worried that his tone sounded a little hasty. When his words had reached Alicia's ears, his tone sounded completely different. Apart from blaming her, he was also reprimanding her!, She came all the way here on such short notice to see him, yet he treated her like this. She became angrier and she grabbed her suitcase.,

"If that's the case then I'll be leaving now. You don't want to see me anymore, do you? You weren't happy at all when you saw me earlier. You weren't even concerned about me. Do you only know how to scold me? If I knew this would happen, then I wouldn't have come! I must've been bored out of my mind to come see you this late!

" She exclaimed., The more she said, the more aggrieved she was. Tears began rolling down her cheeks., With a single wave, she bolted out of the room., Frederick quickly grabbed her and hugged her.

"Ally, that's not what I meant! Let's not cause a scene here. We'll go back to my room and talk about it!

", He held her tightly and took off his jacket to cover her. He straightened his collar, then put his hand over her neck and held her in his arm. He lifted her suitcase with the other hand.,

"Why is it so light?

", This thought flashed through Frederick's mind, but he still extended his hand and tried to hold her in front of him. He was afraid of her expression. No matter how silly Alicia was, she also sensed that there was something wrong with his reaction earlier. She bit her lip and snorted, but she didn't say anything., After he locked the door, she immediately pushed him away. She took out her mobile phone and started searching for plane tickets to go back home., He grabbed her hand and wiped the tears off her face.

"Ally, I'm not displeased that you're here! It's just that it isn't the right time for you to...

", He shook his head and realized that what he had said could easily be misunderstood, so he promptly explained,,

"First of all, I'm not annoyed by you! Just now there was a client in my room. He's a despicable and shameless pervert. If the waitresses in the hotel had piqued his interest, then he would've drugged them and dragged them into the toilet! Anyone who recognizes him knows about this, but he has a great status, a lot of money, and has done a lot of bad deeds. He has also taken a lot of pictures of women. Therefore, many aren't bold enough to provoke him! I was fierce to you earlier because I was afraid that he would notice you!

",

"I should've known better not to come here. I almost ruined your business again. I'm leaving now!

", Alicia was so angry that she wouldn't listen to him. She simply felt that she had been unlucky lately and everything around her was messed up. She was constantly worried about his well-being while he was on his business trip. It was the same with her aunt, and it had been bothering her for the past few days. She was finally relieved when she saw him... Instead, he got on her nerves., She felt as if her heart had been ripped apart!, She was so irritated that she couldn't resist staying for another minute.,

"Ally, where are you going? I'm just afraid that he'll hurt you! That guy carries drugs with him wherever he goes! What if he wanted to r*pe you after seeing you today? What if he uses his drugs on you? Do you know that he can r*pe a woman as fast as he uses the toilet? Maybe he wants to take advantage of you or even be violent towards you... His desire for lust is uncontrollable! That's why I'm afraid that he'll run into you again. You're too pretty! If he fancies you, he'll chase you all the way to Casterwich City. He'll do anything to bring you back here! He's a maniac!

", He hugged her and calmly brushed her arm to comfort her.,

"I know my tone was a bit too harsh! I was just worried about you! Fortunately, you were smart enough not to question a single thing earlier. Do you know how afraid I was that you would make a sound or be entangled with me...

" He said., , Alicia was in a bad mood. She pursed her lips and was still doubting him, but she didn't say anything.,

"Can you tell me why you came here out of the blue? When did you arrive? Did something happen?

" Was she here since the day before?,

"Why did you come here without notifying me?

" He asked., She felt that his behavior wasn't the best, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. She couldn't figure out whether it was his fault or not, but she was very displeased.

"Don't worry about it. I'm not here for you anyways! I'll be leaving first thing tomorrow morning! I won't be disturbing you!

", Upon hearing her angry words, Frederick became even more upset.

"Calm down, Ally!

", If she wasn't here for him, then was she here for Jeremy?,

"I highly doubt that she's here to investigate him!

" He thought to himself.,

"I came here to work!

" She shouted., Deep down, he was confused and displeased, but they were locked in a stalemate., Although he loved her, cared for her very much, and also hoped to spend more time with her, his career was also a part of his life. He had to separate his private life from his daily life. It was impossible for him to stay by her side 24

/7! , She clearly understood what he meant and agreed with his point of view, but right then, she wasn't capable of accepting the truth. She was being unreasonable and there was no way for her to be satisfied.,

"I'm really not here for you! I was entrusted by a friend to deliver a parcel to someone! I just wanted to share a room with you for the night. If I had known this would've happened, then I wouldn't have saved the money!

", She was so enraged to the point she sounded sarcastic. After restlessly circling around the room twice, she dragged her suitcase again, wondering whether she should leave or get another room., As she was about to lose her, temper, Frederick subconsciously stopped her. They were awkward at first, but Alicia's cell phone suddenly rang. After pushing him away, she turned around to rummage through her bag and quickly answered the call, ,

"Mr. Simpson...

", The call was from Cole. He anxiously asked about her safety and whether she had found a place to stay. She rolled her eyes at Frederick, threw her bag down, then took a few steps backwards, and replied with a smile.,

"I'm so sorry, I was having my dinner outside and I couldn't hear my phone ringing! Yes, I've already found my husband. We're at the hotel! Don't worry, I'm okay! You're too thoughtful! Thank you for your concern!

",

"That's great! Next time, I hope you do your best as a host!

" Cole replied., On the other hand, while Alicia was on the phone, Fredrick picked up the bag that she threw on the ground. The moment he grabbed her purse, he noticed the tickets inside. It was from the evening!, Only then did he realize what a mess he was in. He was frustrated at himself and kept hitting his own head. How could he suspect that she was the one he saw yesterday? He really had no confidence in himself!, Indeed, the difference between their relationship was far compared to her 6 years with Jeremy. He was too worried about her! From the bottom of his heart, he had always been afraid that he would lose to God's favor., The second Alicia hung up the phone, he hugged her and said,

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. I thought you...
