Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

The tone of his last word was so suggestive that it made Alicia blush again. At this moment, she had to believe it no matter what!

This man's way of proving his point was too shameless!

"Don't be angry, alright?"

Feeling the soft and warm being in his embrace, Frederick was having a totally different mood.

"I'm not angry... Not about this!"

Alicia muttered as Frederick gently pushed her away. Then, he fixed his gaze on her for a short while and thought to himself, "This little miser, she can't be angry just because I threw away that petty money of hers, can she?"

Just as he was deeply immersed in his own thoughts, he heard a murmuring voice again.

"You are a cold-hearted person with no conscience! My situation was already bad enough and yet you still wanted to kick my mom out to the streets..."

He had made it clear that he wanted her to die with grievance!

Her consciousness was clouded due to the immense pain she was experiencing at that time. However, she still remembered not mentioning the word 'death' to him!

"If you are not around anymore one day, I'll definitely take good care of Grandma for you!"

Those words that she mumbled before she fainted came across Frederick's mind all of a sudden. Frederick felt a gush of warmth in his heart. Then, he patted her head gently and spoke to her in a serious manner.

"Fool! If you dare let anything bad happen to yourself, I will really kick your mother out to the street! Even if you are already in the coffin, I must make you climb out of it!"

In an instant, Alicia understood the meaning of his words. It turned out that what he said was an irony.

Her eyes lit up brightly. She was sure that he cared about her. At least at this moment, he really cared about her!

Frederick couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips upwards. He held her face up and pressed his nose against hers. After that, he kissed her gently. Alicia placed her hands on the back of his neck and kissed him back as well...

After a short sequence of quarrels, jealousy, reunion, and even almost being separated by a life- and-death situation, their emotions were extremely complicated. However, they were both determined to be elated at this moment. The two of them embraced each other intimately. For the first time, their hearts and minds were undisturbed. When their lips touched, they kissed passionately and lost themselves in the moment!

Out of nowhere, the door was pushed open with a "bang". "I... I'm so sorry, you may go on, I..."

Mrs. Blanchard rushed in hastily but did not expect to see such a scene. In an instant, her face turned a little red. She turned around and was about to head out when she heard the voice of Alicia.

"Mom?"

After that, it was only after Frederick had stood up that Mrs. Blanchard started walking in with the thermos bottle in her hands. As soon as she got close to the bed, Alicia stretched her hand out and couldn't hide her smile.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Stepping forward, Mrs. Blanchard held her daughter in her arms. She nagged at her while she patted her hair with pity. "You are not a kid anymore. How can you still act so coquettishly?"

Acknowledging that both the mother and daughter were immersed in their own world, Frederick uttered, "I'll leave you two alone and head to the doctor's."

After watching him leave the room, Mrs. Blanchard sat down by the bedside.

She asked, "Ally, how are you feeling? Does it still hurt? Is your injury severe? Why didn't you tell me that you are hospitalized? If something bad indeed happened to you, what's the point of me staying alive?"

Mrs. Blanchard's eyes were red with tears while talking. She choked as she tried her best to not shed tears.

Holding her mother's wrinkled hands, Alicia put on a smile.

"Mom, I'm fine! Your daughter is strong! It's just a minor and common illness. Everything is fine after the minor operation! Look, the wound is so small and it doesn't hurt at all!"

Lifting up her clothes, Alicia let her mother examine the wound to show that it was not that severe. In fact, there were three wounds that were deep and painful. However, she deliberately showed her mom only one of them and since she had changed her bandage to a smaller one, it didn't look so scary and serious after all.

"I'll be discharged from the hospital in a few days, thus I didn't want to worry you! Mom, how did you know I'm here?"

"The electric bill has probably exceeded the amount, thus the electricity was cut off. How was I supposed to know the account number? If I did not call you, I wouldn't know that you were admitted to the hospital! Thanks to Frederick, the electricity came back in the middle of the night! He told me

that you are fine, but you are still under the doctor's observation. He wanted me to come by during the day and to cook some porridge for you... Why do you look so pallid?"

"Really? Perhaps I've lost some weight because I couldn't eat much for two days after the surgery! But, I've eaten well after that, and I'm almost five kilograms heavier!"

She pinched the skin on her arm exaggeratedly. After Mrs. Blanchard saw that she was very energetic, only did she let out a weak smile. She then got up and poured Alicia a bowl of soup.

"I have added some herbs! I've asked the doctors, and they said that you could only take light food for the time being. That was why I made you this soup. Drink it whenever you are hungry. When you get better, you can eat more. By the way, the soup should be sweet due to the herbs!"

Mrs. Blanchard was looking at Alicia while she was drinking it.

After seeing that she had finished two big bowls of soup, Mrs. Blanchard handed a piece of tissue to her with a grin. Noticing that her lips were still slightly swollen, she narrowed her eyes a little and smiled.

"Ally, I'm so relieved to see you and Frederick getting along well. In the future, if you get sick or something like that, I can take care of you. He's very busy, so you can't always rely on him. Also, don't be too capricious, alright? Sometimes men would prioritize their career as it isn't easy in the corporate world. You should show more care and affection towards him, understand him and treat him better. Although he doesn't talk much, deep down he's a good person! It's really not easy to have someone who is willing to abandon his work just to take care of you!"

"Mom, tell me who is your biological child? Why are you putting good words for him? If he doesn't take care of me even when I'm sick, why would I need him?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Blanchard poked her forehead and added, "You are being capricious again! In short, you have to be more understanding!" "I see. Alright, Mom. I'll be good to your wealthy son-in- law!"

Frederick returned to the door and happened to hear what Alicia had just said. He felt a little displeased. However, at this time, the laughter of Mrs. Blanchard came.

"You are talking nonsense again!"

After a pause, Frederick turned around and left again.

After pouring a glass of water for Alicia, Mrs. Blanchard poured her heart out earnestly.

"Ally, weren't we well-off before? Was there anything that we haven't seen? What about now? To put it bluntly, money is not the most important thing in the world. It's good enough if you have enough to spend! Genuine relationships are the rarest! Although we are a little poor now, our family is still happy, right? Compared with many wealthy families who are scheming and extravagant, we are way happier than them, isn't it? I have eaten expensive, exquisite foods and I have lived in a mansion which was worth millions. I don't need a wealthy son-in-law. I just want you to be happy!"

Alicia placed her arms around her mother's neck to hug her. It was rare for her to show this kind of affection.

"Mom, I know! No matter what I have experienced or what I will experience in the future, I will not give up my right to be happy! I will always work hard and live a good life. I will remember what you and Dad told me. Happiness is created on our own, not given by others! Only I can make myself happy!"

Alicia followed Mrs. Blanchard out of the door to send her off. As soon as she turned around, a tall
