Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 52

The man had shaped eyebrows, sharp eyes, and a sunny smile on his face. However, his gaze did not make people feel uncomfortable, and he was holding a cup and plate in his hands. He was a stranger to Alicia, hence, she could not but feel a little scared of him.

Had they met each other before?

Why did he look familiar? Could he be... an old acquaintance from Bayton City?

She was inexplicably nervous. When she took a breath, her eyes trembled with fear as she thought, "Who on earth is he?"

She started to get a little worried. The man then approached her, and she was so scared that she took two steps back, almost spilling the drink. Fortunately, Miranda caught the glass at the right time. At this time, the man spoke again to Mrs. Clements.

"Granny, is she your granddaughter? Is she Miss Hallie or Miss Caroline? I've heard so much about them. They are indeed ladies of a great family, beautiful and elegant!"

He just heard Alicia calling Mrs. Clements "Granny" and saw that she had been standing beside Mrs. Clements, serving her tea. The man was obviously excited and reached out his hand to Alicia.

"Hello, I'm Brian Haskell! Nice to meet you!" Hearing this, Alicia suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that she had mistaken him for someone else. She was really scared to death! Brian Haskell? Wasn't he a popular movie star?

Mrs. Clements turned around and patted his hand.

"Hey, hey, are you out of your mind? Who was the one who kept telling me that he was very busy? Brat, I warn you, she's unavailable! This is my dearest granddaughter- in- law. Watch out!" Mrs. Clements said.

The man chuckled, but he had already stepped back.

"Granny, how dare I? All your grandsons are the most outstanding persons in the world. How dare I try to do anything to them?" Brian said.

The man stopped smiling and nodded at Alicia, saying, "Sorry, I was rude just now. Please don't take it to heart!"

Alicia lifted the corners of her mouth and replied softly, "It doesn't matter!"

A faint smile appeared on Alicia's face, which was like flowers blooming in the spring. In an instant, Brian's heart skipped a beat. He was amazed by her beauty when he first saw her, but her gentle smile shook his heart at this moment.

In an instant, Brian's expression became more serious. "How should I address you, Miss?"

He knew the situation of the Clements family. Master Frederick was not close to any woman and Master Trevor was a playboy. The Clements family also had another less well- known master who seemed to be still studying! He had never heard any of them getting married. Who could it be her husband?

Could she be someone's fiancee?

Alicia did not dare to answer. Subconsciously, she glanced at Mrs. Clements first. Seeing a nod, she said, "I'm Alicia Blanchard. You can call me Ms. Blanchard!"

No matter whether the man had any ulterior motives or not, her name had already shown her standpoint. At the same time, she had won their favor. Mrs. Clements' eyes curved into a moon-like shape instantly.

Brian also understood at once. He immediately smiled and said, "Granny, you are so lucky! Can I invite your beautiful granddaughter- in- law to a dance?"

At this time, Frederick's voice was heard. "Alicia!"

Frederick stepped forward and clasped her waist in an intimate manner. The strength of his grip was so overbearing that no one could get away from it. He showed his possessiveness without any hesitation.

"Grandma, I'll bring Alicia to meet a few friends!" Frederick said.

Without saying another word, he then turned around and left with Alicia in his arms. He made Alicia feel a little uncomfortable. As he walked, Alicia raised her hand and tried pushing him away. She spoke to him in a lowered voice.
