The implication was that she was forced to do this and had her own reasons for doing so. She also hinted at the immoral methods that she had used against the situation! Of course, she had to emphasize to not bear the blame!, As soon as he looked at the phone, Mr. Conley knew what she meant right away. Faint disdain and disgust flashed in his eyes, but he couldn't conceal the extreme interest, and he nodded happily instead! At the same time, Danica added more wine in his glass.,

"In this case, let's toast to our pleasant cooperation! Mr. Conley, let me make a toast to you first and sit with you for a while more! She is just around this area in another event. I'm not sure if she would be willing to come over. We might need some time for the arrangement...

", At this time, Alicia was in her best mood as she got the chance to meet Victoria. Her footsteps were light and she was still humming a tune after she got home., Frederick was extremely pleased to see such a happy Alicia, and his mood was brightened up along with hers., After getting to the bedroom, he received a call just as he took off his coat. He told her before answering the call,

"I'll be in the study room. You can wash up first!

",

"Alright!

", It wasn't until she took out her pajamas from the wardrobe that she remembered that her original sim card had yet to be fixed. Looking through the drawer, she found an old phone. She tried installing the sim card to see if it would work., Fortunately, it was still usable!, She then took out a power bank and plugged the cable in to charge the phone., After that, she turned around and headed to the bathroom for a warm shower when a ringing sound was heard. She promptly turned back and saw the phone had been successfully switched on., On the main screen, a few messages popped up., I'm not in a good mood. Can you come over to keep me company? Hampton Hotel, A2608, I'm feeling sad! There is a lot that I need to tell you... Please come on your own. Don't tell anyone else!, I'll be waiting for you until you come over! There was something that happened, and I don't know who to look for help..., What should I do? Other than you, I really don't want anyone else to know about it!, Who should I look for? I really feel like dying..., Victoria?, What was going on?, Did something terrible really happen? It wasn't long ago since they parted after the press conference. Why was she at Hampton Hotel?, At that moment, Alicia recalled seeing this hotel along the way which was located not too far from here! What happened to poor Victoria? Didn't she give her Misty's name card earlier? Why was she texting to her old number?, She would have missed it again if she didn't get dressed right then!, Before she left the house, she turned around and looked at the door to check if Fredrick was back, but there were no signs of him. At this point, she swiftly made a call while she paid full attention to any motion that passed through the door.,

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is not reachable. Please try again later...

", Why wasn't she picking up the call? Did she hang, up?, Was she in danger or something? It couldn't be!, What was this situation?, As she was caught up in confusion as to whom to look for help, Alicia called up to Shine Pearl Tower to get someone to search for Victoria. After a while, a reply came from the other end of the call.

"Miss Blanchard, the banquet is still ongoing! However, there's no sign of Designer Jill around here. The waiter seemed to have seen her leaving with a man!

"

"Alright, got it. Thank you very much!

", As soon as she hung up the phone, Alicia felt a little anxious. Man? What was going on? Who could it be?, Could it be that boyfriend of hers?, At this point, she was completely trapped in confusion about the situation. Just at this very moment, a message that hadn't been read came into her sight,, It's not convenient to call now..., Alicia, I'm feeling awful. I wish you, elnet, were here with me... The press conference was a success, but I don't feel happy about it at all. really need someone to be with me right now. Unless now isn't the right time for you. Then, it is fine!, Without having a second thought, Alicia gave a brisk reply, Don't do anything silly. I'll be right there!, Just when she sent out the message, Alicia froze for a second with the phone still in her hands,

"She's such a tough and optimistic lady. How is it possible for her to take things this hard?

", Even so, there was an obvious sense of sorrow and coldness through Victoria's eyes when they met that evening!, Having two contradicting voices fight against each other in her mind, there was not much time for Alicia to think about it anymore as she quickly put on her shoes and went to the study room before she left the house., It didn't take Alicia long to arrive at the Hampton Hotel by car. She sent Victoria a message before entering the hotel, I'm here! I'll be there real quick! Don't hurt yourself!,

"Welcome to the Hampton Hotel! May I know how many of you, miss? Do you need a room or...

" The lobby boy had a strange attitude when he saw Alicia come in empty-handed.,

"Hi, I'm Alicia Blanchard. I'm here to see a friend! May I know which way to A2608?

",

"Oh, Miss Blanchard. Please, come with me. The, elevator is just right over here!

", As soon as she got into the elevator, Alicia took a look at the CCTV as she pressed on the button for the 26th floor, lowering her head to play with her phone after. She was the only one in the elevator since it was almost eleven o'clock at night., After getting out of the elevator, she glanced around and found an empty corridor. Her sight then fell on the directory board and turned to another side of the corridor,, At this hour, all the corridors were empty! There was nothing suspicious along the way to the room. Could it be that she was overthinking about it? Or did something really happen to Victoria? Subconsciously, she quickened her pace when she imagined the possible scenarios., As she was reaching the room, a door on the side suddenly opened with a woman wearing a hat, scarf, and a bag in her hand walking out from her room, seemingly a hotel guest who lived there. Alicia leaned aside to make way for the woman when she smelled a pungent fragrance. She instantly felt utterly dizzy that she stopped in her tracks and shook her head lightly. As she was falling over, the woman reached out to hold her.,

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling okay?

" Hearing a vague call coming from the woman from afar, Alicia tried with all her might to open her eyes while she saw nothing but a blurred figure., Pretending to be lending her a hand,, Danica then sent her into the, pre-arranged room. Just when she pushed her onto the bed and prepared to leave for good, she was hit hard on the back of her neck,, everything went into complete, and, darkness for her. , When Alicia opened her eyes again, she felt exhausted as if she had walked through twenty-five thousand kilometers of an expedition. Her whole body and bones were sore and strengthless! She blinked her eyes, tried her best to hold herself up, and looked down towards her body in a panic. Her clothes? Luckily, she still had them on!

", She focused and found that she felt fine! It was just her head... Why did it hurt so much?, She gave a few knocks on her head while she gazed around in doubt. Where was she? Meanwhile, Frederick pushed open the door with a bowl of soup in his hands,

"You're awake?

"

"Hubby? I was scared to death! Luckily you came in time!

" She heaved a long sigh of relief as she patted her chest., Fortunately, she told him about coming here!,

"Um... How is Victoria? Who was that woman? Why was Victoria's phone with her? Is Victoria okay?

", Just when she opened her mouth and asked the questions, her head throbbed as if the nerves in her brain were stretched; it was so painful she grasped for air. Frederick approached her to give her a massage on her head,,

"How are you worrying about others when you can't even protect, yourself! The medicine is a little strong, but you'll be just fine after it wears off! I've asked someone to prepare the medicine that can help you recover. Now, quickly drink it up While it's warm!

" , He wasn't interested to know who that woman was. She should get a dose of her own medicine when she dared to hurt Alicia!, The couple had actually planned to have her come alone while he secretly accompanied her. There would be no need for him to show up if there weren't any issues., In fact, he didn't come alone. He had contacted the hotel to put an eye on Alicia in the monitoring room with extra men to stand by on that floor. It was fortunate that everything went as planned., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
