Chapter 168
Alicia blinked her eyes and the corners of her mouth twitched. She swallowed her saliva as she was on the verge of tears.
What was going on? Why wasn't he say anything? Her feet were already numb...
If he wanted to punish her, he should at least do it all at once.
Would he let her stand all night?
Should she say something? What should she talk about?
She felt like dying!
As thoughts were running in Alicia's mind, Frederick had put down the wine glass. He grabbed her and dragged her over to him. She was soon in his arms and the huge plushy was no longer in her arms.
"Huh?"
Alicia subconsciously turned her head but Frederick held the back of her head. He wrapped his fingers around her hair, making her scalp numb for a few seconds. The next second, he sealed her lips with his.
Frederick was strong like he wanted to swallow her whole. It made Alicia breathless and she was in pain.
Clearly feeling his anger, Alicia instinctively refused and pushed him away.
Like an enraged leopard, Frederick suddenly pinched her delicate chin and spoke through gritted teeth.
"So I can't touch you, huh?"
With anger in his heart, he increased his strength subconsciously as if he wanted to crush her. Under the light, the butterfly earrings were shining as bright as diamonds. Every time it shone, it pierced through his heart.
No wonder she took a fancy to this pair of earrings!
No wonder she loved them so much and wore them every day!
She had even cried and sung for that man.
Did she wear this pair of earrings for that man too?
For that man, she had even dressed up so beautifully to attend the d*mned university gathering.
She cried so hard forthat man as well.
This d*mned woman!
Frederick was about to explode from anger and he pulled on her blouse roughly. As soon as he started moving, Alicia threw a punch at him.
"What are you doing? You're hurting me!"
"Oh, you know pain too?"
With a growl, Frederick pulled her blouse, causing it to get torn in half. It then exposed a tattoo of a black flower on her shoulders.
Suddenly, Frederick remembered something. "This tattoo was a butterfly, right?"
No wonder she had such a despicable tattoo that was unsuited for her on her body! She must have been hiding something from him! Otherwise, she wouldn't have gotten such a tattoo on her.
Thinking that everything she had done was because of another man, Frederick immediately felt vexed.
Alicia's expression gradually fell as her deepest thoughts had been exposed and her past was dragged out. She held onto his clothes while remaining silent. It wasn't that she refused to talk to him but rather, she didn't know where to start.
There were too many things that happened that day. Even at this moment, Alicia was not sure whether it was necessary to speak. Thus, she kept silent all this while as her heart was in a mess.
Her reaction further angered Frederick. Out of rage, he pulled on her hair and reached for her ears.
"Why do you like butterflies so much?" How much did she love that man?
"Alicia Blanchard, you are really unbelievable! Were you thinking about other men while you were with me?" How grieved did she feel while staying with him? No wonder she ran to her parents' home when she was free and went out to earn money when she had nothing better to do! She probably couldn't wait to leave him.
He held onto her slender neck, his cold breath brushing against her lips. "Did you have your period again today? Did you have it every single day throughout this month?"
Little did he know that last time, Alicia was lying to him and thought that she had given way to him. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
At this moment, Frederick's heart ached.
At the same time, he felt enraged!
What kind of woman couldn't he get? But, Alicia was his legally married wife!
"Cat got your tongue? Answer me!"
Alicia cowered as Frederick burst out in anger. She came back to her senses and realized something. Has he already known?
Her mood was already terrible. On top of that, he had caused her great physical pain. Alicia felt a temper coming on as well.
"Yes, I did it on purpose! Who knows how many dirty women you've got in contact with outside? I don't want you to drag me down with you! Is scolding me the only thing you know how to do? How come you didn’t say anything when you left me alone? Or when you voted for other women, paid for other women? Why won't you think of me then? When I was in pain, you were having fun somewhere else! Would you even know if I had passed away if you don't come home continuously for several days? You only know to pick on me when you return home. All you do is hit and scold me but you can treat other women so nicely. Do I owe you anything?"
In this life, she would never give another man a second chance to bully her again.
"Frederick Clements, quit showing me your 'Master
Frederick' attitude! At least so far, I have never done anything wrong to you. I'm worthy of my conscience! Since you always look down on me... I don't want to be Mrs. Clements either!"
When Alicia had been provoked, she wasn't going to let the other person go this easily.
In an instant, Frederick's expression grew grim. "What did you just say? Repeat it once again!"
"I said you're dirty! You are a b*stard! I don't need you! Don't touch me—"
Alicia screamed from the bottom of her lungs with all her strength and Frederick's expression immediately fell. He raised her chin, forcing her to look up at him.
"Do you really think that I can't live without you?"
Frederick shook his hand and pushed her away. He was infuriated. He then got up and walked out of the door.
"There are many obedient women out there!"
A loud slam of the door followed as he left. Alicia curled up and bit her bottom lip, tears streaming down her face...
After that day, their relationship had been ruined. As for Frederick, he hadn't returned home ever since.
In the office, after Alicia had translated some documents, she couldn't help but sigh again. Unknowingly, she turned on her computer and typed his name.
Frederick Clements?
After browsing through the internet, she paused. She then deleted her search results one by one. She was the one who was giving up on their relationship, why did she still insist on looking him up?
Alicia laughed mockingly at herself. "Old habits never die."
She got up and tried to divert her attention, therefore she went to make herself a cup of coffee.
When she returned to her seat, she noticed that Daisy and Miriam were whispering to each other and giggling excitedly while looking at something.
