Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 167

As if Jeremy had returned to the past, he couldn't help muttering to himself, "Our favorite butterflies, our love pledge, and our agreement! You have never forgotten about me, have you?"

Instinctively, Alicia took a step back and avoided his hand. When she was about to deny it, she saw a tall figure appear before her as she lifted her head up.

Suddenly, Alicia was stunned and her mind went blank. She opened her mouth in surprise and blinked her eyes in disbelief.

Frederick?

Tears were welling up in Jeremy's eyes. As his back was facing the other way, he did not see the person behind him. He was so agitated that he stepped forward and hugged her tightly. His eyes were red too.

"Ally!"

Jeremy held her tightly as he couldn't control his feelings. Then, he kissed her forehead unconsciously.

Alicia, who was struggling, was so scared that she completely forgot how to react. After being stunned momentarily, she pushed him away with all of her strength.

"Let me go!"

Her gaze fell behind Jeremy. In a blink of an eye, she'd walked past Jeremy and she fixed her eyes on that man.

Their eyes met. Alicia's reaction was instinctive but she couldn't calm down at that instant. She was trembling but she didn't say anything.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Frederick gave off an air that was frosting cold. It was so icy that it felt terrifying!

Frederick then turned around and strode away with big steps. He bumped into Carson, who just managed to catch up at this instant.

"Ouch, Frederick-"

After finally catching up to Frederick, Carson staggered again as he bumped into Frederick. When he looked back, he saw Alicia with tears all over her face. He also saw Jeremy behind her, whose clothes were in disarray and his face livid with rage.

Carson's eyes widened. What was going on?

He frowned and looked at Alicia before he spun around to chase after Frederick again.

Tears flowed uncontrollably down her cheeks like a waterfall. She subconsciously took a few steps to chase after him as she mouthed 'hubby'. However, in just a few steps, she suddenly halted and clenched her drooping fists.

Why did she have to chase after him?

She tried her best to suppress the surging emotions in her heart but the gushing tears and her moving feet had all betrayed her thoughts.

Jeremy's face was as pale as ashes, his expression ugly.

Confused and in tears, Alicia headed back to the bathroom while wiping away her tears. She cleaned herself up and composed herself before coming out.

Although she held her head and chest high, walking elegantly, her eyes were empty and hollow.

When she returned to the banquet hall, she was blocked by Carson before she could find Victoria. He gave her a sidelong glance and sighed helplessly.

"Frederick is waiting for you. Go home in half an hour!"

He had never seen a woman who was so bold. Normally, when a woman could get close to Frederick, she would feel extremely elated and blessed.

However,Alicia not only bad-mouthed him behind his back, she even dared to flirt with a man in front of him. That really made Frederick annoyed. How could she even be in the mood to attend a party? What was she even thinking? Was she trying to look for trouble?

Looking at her, Carson sympathized with her but admired her as well. Maybe it was because of these qualities that made Alicia different from all the other girls.

Carson couldn't explain why but even at this time, he did not hate her.
