Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 371

Alicia proceeded to her desk. As soon as she turned on the computer, she was shocked to find what was on the news. Was this truly the Lindsay that she knew?

After reading the entire article, Alicia had to take a moment to wrap her head around what happened. A few moments later, she closed the webpage. She felt she was blessed and lucky. With that, she decided to head over to her mother's house to have dinner after work.

At the same time, miles away at the Castle family household in Yecaeus City, the delicate hand of a woman was trembling as she read the newspaper in the living room. Tears were rolling down her cheeks. As two beautiful women came in one after the other, she quickly put away the newspaper and put on a smile.

"Oh, you're back?"

Waverly and Cecilia Castle entered the house, both carrying shopping bags in their hands. Cecilia went forward and held her arm with a smile.

"Mom, we just went shopping. I bought you one of the latest handbags on the market!

Mom, why are your eyes red? You seem a little upset. What happened?"

"I'm not! I accidentally sprayed some perfume into my eyes! Why did you two come back together? Wasn't Waverly supposed to be with her friends? I heard from your father that you wanted to go to Casterwich City after graduation?"

"I'm just considering. Nothing has been decided!"

The woman chuckled then said, "Then, you ought to consider it carefully! Casterwich City is too far away. It's better to stay close to home. That way, there would always be someone to take care of you. You must be tired! Sit down! I made some pudding. Let me go and get it for you."

The woman hurriedly tidied up the living room and went into the kitchen.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

As Waverly watched her mother make her way to the kitchen, a flash of doubt sparked in her eyes.

Although she was still mad at Frederick, she decided to text him before she got off from work. It was inconvenient for them to be seen together. Therefore, they had to set up a place and time to meet.

After work, Alicia drove to the supermarket. As soon as she left the office building, a silver car started following her.

The Pitcher Group was badly affected by this incident. Jeremy spent almost all his time dealing with the aftermath every day. He had to apologise and negotiate his way through to cut down as much loss as possible.

He'd just returned and was obviously very tired. He had no idea why, but as soon as he found out that she was working in Soaver International, the first thing he did was to drive over.

He watched her enter the supermarket from a distance. Jeremy tried his best to find parking. As soon as he found one, he parked his car and turned off the engine. He sat in the car for a long time and did not move.

He placed his hands on the steering wheel while he waited. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and decided to get down from the car.

Just as Lindsay arrived at the entrance of the supermarket, she saw Jeremy walking towards her. She ran up to him and said, "Jer-Jeremy, were you looking for me?"

When she ran up to him, she'd grabbed his sleeve instinctively. However, Lindsay now slowly let go.

"Why would you come to look for me? You used to hate me, and now you found out that I've lied to you, you will definitely hate me even more!" Lindsay's tears pattered down her cheeks.

She said in a dull tone, "I know, you must think I'm a vicious woman! But all I wanted to tell you was that what I felt for you was real! I just wanted to erase that unfortunate experience; that was why I went for surgery to replace my hymen! But the truth will always come out. Maybe ever since the moment my parents divorced and my mother brought me into the family that she remarried, my life was destined to be a tragedy!"

Lindsay did not wait for Jeremy to say anything and took out a cheque from her bag.

"I know your company is in bad shape, and you're trying to raise funds. This is part of my savings. You can go ahead and use it!"

Lindsay reached out and shoved the cheque into his hands. Then, she turned around and went away. Alicia was exiting the supermarket with two sausages in her hands. This was the conversation she overheard between them.

The problems with his company were giving him a headache. Jeremy'd just returned to Casterwich City, and he hadn't had time to pay attention to anything else. With Lindsay's cheque in hand, he was shocked to hear her mention her surgery. He knew that her family relations were complicated, as were his. It was one of the reasons why they'd gotten together so quickly. Aside from talking about Alicia, they were in the same situation where both their mothers had left them to fend for themselves!

Of course, he couldn't deny the sense of responsibility towards her, especially when he got drunk one time and took her virginity.

At this moment, it was as if he was struck by lightning. He blanked out almost the entire day.

He unfolded the cheque in his hand and realised that it was a cheque for ten million dollars. He felt as if a weight was on his chest. Before he came back to his senses, he heard a familiar voice calling him over.

"A true heart will show itself in difficult times. Don't let her down!"

As he looked up, he saw Alicia, who was holding a sausage in her hands. She was standing at the stairs at the entrance of the supermarket while munching on another sausage.

"Ally, you...." He'd come to look for her! He had no other intentions towards Lindsay.

Jeremy suddenly panicked. He did not know where to start and rushed up the stairs. At this time, Lindsay was making her way to her car. She wiped away her tears and could not help but look back.

Judging by his character, she knew he would not use her money. Even if he decided to use it, it would not be for nothing! Right then, she was still thinking about him. Her gesture should at least move him her gesture!

When her eyes focused on Jeremy and Alicia, she gritted her teeth in anger. Alicia again!

Was it because of this woman that he came here?

She gnashed her teeth in hatred and inadvertently turned her eyes. A black Rolls-Royce suddenly caught her eye. She turned around and opened the door. Sure enough, after a while, a tall dark figure appeared outside the window.

Frederick?

Lindsay watched as the man slowly drew closer to his target. She immediately slammed the steering wheel with her hand, causing it to creak.

As soon as Frederick got off the car, he saw a man's silhouette. As he walked towards Alicia, he realised it was Jeremy. He could not help but sneer. "President Pitcher, what a coincidence!"

Frederick walked over to Alicia's side, wrapped an arm around her waist and then turned to look at Jeremy.

"President Pitcher, you're in a good

mood. How could you still have the mood to stand here and talk when your company products were recalled? The Pitcher Group is indeed rich and overbearing. All of your products are of low quality, yet you don't care about them at all?"

"Mr. Clements, you seem to know my company like the back of your hand. Does this matter have anything to do with you?"

As soon as Jeremy finished his words, Alicia turned to look at Frederick with her eyes wide open.

Frederick chuckled. "There's no such things as a free lunch in this world!"

Frederick gave him a faint smile. He neither confirmed nor denied it. However, his words contained some sort of warning. Their eyes met. In an instant, the atmosphere tensed as they stared down at each other. Frederick just held Alicia tightly, and his voice was a little softer.

"Oh, by the way, we're getting married on October 10th! Since you have some free time, remember to come and join us! I wouldn't mind if you came empty-handed!"

After that, he turned around with his arm still wrapped around Alicia. "Let's go! Mom and Dad are waiting for us."

"Alright!"

Alicia matched his pace. Then, she offered Frederick her sausage, and he gladly took a bite. In the past, Frederick would never eat any street food. However, not only did he take a bite now, he even took the whole thing.

The two of them made their way into the supermarket. Frederick pushed the shopping cart while Alicia chose some ingredients and daily necessities. She suddenly thought of something and decided to ask Frederick directly.

"Hubby, do you have anything to do with what's happening with the Pitcher Group?"
