Chapter 496
His eyes fell on her forehead and eyebrows while all he heard was her chattering voice. While cutting the steak, the corner of Frederick's lips raised a little unconsciously.
"Can you stop being so fussy? I don't even complain about you. Your body is as hard as a rock and there is also hair on your legs...
" He recalled a past memory.
"Ally...
", Lost in thought, he called out her name softly and gently without realizing it., All of Winters' movements stopped abruptly. She blinked while looking at him,
"Mr. Clements, are you calling me?
", Suddenly, Frederick's eyes fell on her attractive eyes again. Her eyes looked a lot like Alicia's. Except for the slightly wider eyelids which were obviously done by surgery, her eyes were really like hers! Even the way she ate and talked was somewhat similar!, It was a pity that her voice was not pleasant. Her movements were not modest and her words were not as lovely as Ally's. Instead, it sounded more like endless nagging., Even so, it was better than nothing!, Once again, his gaze fell on her eyes. Frederick put down the knife and fork, picked up the red wine on one side and took a few sips.,
"Mr. Clements, am I being too talkative?
" She asked., He picked up the knife and fork again and said,
"No, I like listening to you! Your eyebrows will look better if you trim it thinner!
", It would also be more like his Ally, a little bit more gentle, and less sharp.,
"Really? Then I'll draw them thinner tomorrow!
", With a happy mood, the woman continued to eat. She ate not the steak, but more of the vegetable salad on the side. The woman began to talk about all kinds of things again but Frederick only focused on her eyes and did not listen to a word she said..., At this time, in the room at the Heaven Star Clubhouse, Alicia was sitting on the sofa by the window. Looking at the moonlight outside the window, her eyes were filled with longing, loneliness, and sadness. She missed her aunt and her parents, and also, missed him!, Suddenly, her eyes turned red. If there was no accident and all these messy things, if her aunt was still alive and she had met her brother again, her life would really have no regrets!, If it wasn't for all of this, she would be in his arms at this moment!, She wondered what he was doing at this moment. Was he thinking about her as well?, Would he miss her?, She suddenly thought of the scene on the day of the fire. The image in the dark was still lingering in her mind., She opened her eyes. She felt a little annoyed for no reason. She jumped off the sofa and paced back and forth in the room., That voice, it was obviously him! That woman was Danica! But how could he? Could it be that all the things she had seen and experienced were the things that he wanted her to see?, If it was just for a child, was it necessary?, He was so rich. He could have just found a surrogate mother easily. Or was there a hidden story that she didn't know?, What was the problem?, She still couldn't figure it out. Alicia tilted her head, sighed and looked at the moonlight outside of the window. Staring at the iron grill on the window, there was a distance between the two of them. Suddenly, she had an idea., Perhaps, this could also be an opportunity!, If he really thought that she was gone, perhaps the temporary parting could let her see his attitude and thoughts more clearly! That's right, she couldn't hurry back to find him! It was better that she stayed calm and cleaned up this mess first!, As long as she could get through this, as long as she could endure until she regained her freedom, then no matter if it was a surprise or a fright, she would still be able to see the real him!, After working it out, her mood instantly improved a little. She stretched her body and was about to take a shower and have a rest when there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Miss Swift, are you asleep?
" The person outside the door asked.,
"Not yet! What's the matter?
" When she walked to the door, she saw a young man dressed as a nightclub waiter standing outside the door.,
"Miss Swift, Mr. Nick asked me to invite you over! He said that he has prepared a surprise for you. He is waiting for you in the private room on the second floor!
" The waiter informed her.
"Oh, then wait for me for a while. I'll change my clothes!
" Alicia said.,
"No need, that's fine! Mr. Nick says that you need to be there in ten minutes. He still has something to do!
", As the waiter got anxious, she subconsciously took a look at her casual clothes. Although it was not too transparent, it was so loose that it made her look messy. Plus, she was still wearing slippers and her face was not washed. Her hair was also not combed. It was too inappropriate to meet people while looking like this! , Suddenly, she caught the reaction of the waiter who seemed to bow his head with a guilty conscience. She was immediately alerted., Although Nicholas would take her, out for dinner and take her to walk, around these days, sending someone to look for her late at night and talking about a surprise was indeed unusual. After thinking for a while, she thought that it was likely to be Logan. Here, no one would dare to mess with her, with him being the sole exception. , She smiled and said,
"Alright! I'll go right away after putting on my shoes!
", Back in her room, she grabbed a coat just in case. She checked the equipment and thought quickly. She had to find a way to inform her brother!, When she opened the door, she covered her stomach and yelled,
"Ouch!
",
"Miss Swift, what's wrong with you?
" The waiter was shocked., Shaking her hand, she curled her lips as if she was in pain,
"I'm okay. This is just an old sickness. You just need to buy some medicine for me!
"
"What kind of medicine? Tell me, I'll go right away!
",
"You should find Leon and tell him that my old sickness attacked again. The medicine he bought for me last time was very effective! He knows about it! Two hours later, I must take the medicine. Buy more for me as spares. I should be back by that time! You go and ask him quickly! Only he knows! Don't waste time. If I don't take the medicine in two hours, I will be sick!
" , She said it vaguely on purpose. Just in case the waiter felt suspicious, Alicia deliberately gave him a long time. After that, she walked with him. However, with every step she took, she looked around and listened carefully. She was being extra cautious and alert., She hoped that Leon could understand what she meant upon hearing it., One of the bodyguards was sent away while the other followed her, but as expected, the man was soon sent away too!, Soon, Alicia was led to a room at the corner of the second floor.,
"Miss Swift, Mr. Nick is inside. Please go in!
" The waiter said., She stood still and said,
"Aren't you going to open the door for me? Ahem...
", While saying this, she had already taken out a piece of tissue from her pocket to block her breath while coughing. She had heard Nicholas mentioning the tricks people used in such places. She was afraid that she would be drugged., As she bent down, the waiter opened the door for her. What she saw was an empty room with flowers in a few places., She walked into the room as soon as she braced herself. She was still blocking her breath while her other hand was ready to fight,
"Mr. Nick, I'm here. Where are you?
", She looked around, but the room was empty. Something suddenly occurred to her. Just when she was about to look back, she heard a loud bang and her sight also turned dark.,
"Oh no!
