Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 19

When they returned to the room, it was like Frederick had been covered with ice. He went on to take an ointment and applied it to her wound!

Fortunately, her wound wasn't open. Otherwise, she would have to get a tetanus injection!

Staring at the unconcerned man, Alicia felt a warmth from within all of a sudden. She felt that he was not as bad as she imagined. At least, he would always protect her in front of others!

He was completely different from Jeremy in the past!

With her head on his shoulder, Alicia reached out and hugged him tightly.

"Sorry, I've gotten you into trouble. I didn't do it on purpose! I wanted to accompany Grandma before I left..." Alicia apologized.

For some reason, she wanted to hug him on the spur of the moment.

Frederick's body stiffened, and his blood seemed to have frozen. For a long time, he didn't move and just stared straight at the woman in his arms who was giving him a big hug!

That's right! A woman!

A woman— an existence he hated most of his life had given him a hug when he needed some warmth!

When they exited the room, Alicia was completely on guard - once bitten, twice shy. She followed Frederick and did not touch anything that she should not. She did not speak as long as it was unneeded.

During dinner, Mrs. Clements noticed something odd. In fact, she already knew about it.

Therefore, when Hallie lost her temper and refused to eat, Mrs. Clements asked Penny to call Hallie for dinner and tell her that it was a reunion dinner.
