Chapter 122
It was obvious that it was Hallie's plan.
If they hadn't caused such a drama, no one would've known Alicia's intention except for Miranda. Obviously, she didn't do all of this for others to see nor was it for herself. It was other people's selfishness that contributed to her glory.
This was also what touched Frederick the most.
This was the first time that the name, Alicia Blanchard, was deeply engraved in his heart.
Noticing that there is a warning in his words, Alicia pouted and said nothing. She did all that just because she cared about Gramma instead of wanting for his appreciation.
However, being thought of as a vicious woman still made her feel a little upset.
Frederick brushed his finger across her plump lips and couldn't help kissing her gently. "In the future, no matter how busy I am, I will never ignore my beloved wife! Ally—"
It was as if he was making her a promise. After hearing what he said, Alicia raised the corners of her lips slightly. "Hmm?"
"Thank you!"
It was rare for her to hear such words from him. Alicia knew that he said all these because of his grandmother. Thus, she just grinned.
'That's what I should do!" At this moment, Alicia didn't feel that there was a need for her to be thanked!
Frederick held her face and kissed her lips again.
That night, the two lovers cuddled under the fluffy duvet and spent a crazy night. As for Alicia's delicate lips...
Sure enough, a tragedy happened the next day. After washing up, Alicia wanted to cry as soon as she saw herself in the mirror. Her lips were so red and plump as if she just had a lip injection. She couldn't even cover it up with layers of lipstick.
"Why did he suck on my lips like that? It's going to be embarrassing to be seen like this!"
She pursed her lip and sighed. She then looked down and rolled her eyes as she took out a concealer and applied it on her neck.
Fortunately, her clothes could cover it. Otherwise, even ten bottles of concealer would not be enough for her to hide it! As for the hickeys that were out of sight, they all looked way horrible!
Alicia was in a daze for a long time. She didn't know what happened to him the night before. It was as if he was sucking her like a lollipop, leaving his trace all over her body.
"Was he deprived for too long? Since he couldn't eat it, he sucked on it instead?"
Realizing that she had been applying concealer for about half an hour, Alicia scurried out of the house with her purse in no time.
She was in a good mood and everything she did was efficient. Her work planned for the day had been completed by mid-afternoon.
She got up and stretched lazily. Then, she made herself a cup of hot coffee and took out two small packets of biscuits.
As soon as Alicia sat down, two pairs of huge round eyes fixed their gazes on her.
Alicia blinked her eyes a few times, the biscuits still in her mouth. She offered her biscuits to Daisy and Miriam. "What are you two doing? If you want some biscuits, you can help yourself-"
"Alicia, I just realized that your lips look so sexy! The lip makeup is amazing too! You can be a lipstick model! Hey, what brand are you using for your lipstick?"
Daisy nodded and spoke too.
"It looks plump and so pretty! I have been wanting to ask you since this morning. Why does my lipstick always make my lips dry? I've exfoliated the dead skin and applied a lip mask on it. I don't get why it still doesn't look as good as yours. Is it because my lipstick is too cheap? It can't be! It costs more than 50 dollars!"
Miriam squinted at her and teased her, "Maybe you bought a fake product!"
"Screw you! It took me a lot of effort to get my friend to help me buy it from a tax-free store. I have only used a little as my lips are too dry!"
It could last for five years, and if she really did buy a fake lipstick with 50 dollars, she would be devastated!
Pursing her lips, Alicia couldn't help but be amused by them. The lipstick she used was given to her by Frederick in the past!
At the thought of it, she felt a trace of warmth and joy in her heart.
"Alicia, why don't you tell us? What brand and shade is it? How do you normally apply it? Did you get lip fillers?"
''No! It's just... an ordinary lipstick. It is about the same price as yours, around 50 dollars. I am using Dior's lipstick, the shade is 877. It has a slight berry tone to it and I find it suitable for me. Before
applying it, I would apply some foundation. Then, spread it with a lip brush and remove the excess lipstick with a tissue. Repeat a few times to apply a few layers. That's it!"
As she explained, Alicia felt bad as it was Frederick's kiss that made her lips look so plump! Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"I didn't know that there are so many tricks when it comes to applying lipstick! Well, it turns out that I didn't know how to..." they muttered with a look of worship on their faces. However, Alicia's face turned red with embarrassment when they kept staring at her.
"Alright, stop looking! Just go back home and practice in front of the mirror!"
After getting rid of them, Alicia heard someone exclaiming when she picked up her cup of coffee.
"Wow, what a piece of huge news! The new film which Hannah starred in is about to be released! She is in Casterwich City to promote it. Hey, look! She actually has a scandal with Master Frederick?" As Alicia stirred the coffee, the smile on her face froze instantly and many thoughts were forming in her mind. "Master Frederick? Is that Frederick Clements? Who is Hannah?"
As soon as she started speculating, Daisy's voice could be heard from the other side of the room.
"It's true! There are photos. They went to a high-end hotel, ate, shopped, and even went on yacht trips together last week. Were they on a vacation together? I envy her so much! Didn't you say that he wouldn't get close to women and hated women in the entertainment industry? Why does he seem so intimate with her?"
"How is that the same? I heard that Hannah is from a rich background. All of her family members are abroad and she became the leading role of a TV show at the age of 16. She is not only gorgeous but young. Tell me, as a man, who wouldn't like her? Now, she is only in her early twenties but she looks quite mature! By the way, her first film was sponsored byChampionus Media. At that time, there were rumors about her and Master Clements too! I thought it would be Master
Trevor, but it turned out that she was with Master Frederick! She now manages her own fashion brand. Look, Master Clements is hugging her and holding her bag for her too! They were in the hotel for three days and three nights! Wow..."
After hearing the gossip between the two ladies, Alicia felt upset and thought to herself, "Wasn't he on a business trip last week?"
She did not disturb him for half a month as he told her that his work was important. She took care of his grandmother without any complaints either. However, he was having a vacation with another woman. Looking at those photos on her computer, Alicia felt that she was about to go insane.
At this moment, the screen of her phone lit up...
