Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 819

"Wha... what?"

With a shocked yelp, Chet took a look at his hand, and threw the melon seeds that he just grabbed back on the tissue. Must he exploit him like this? Not only did Frederick not let him eat, but had even asked him to peel the seeds for him.

Looking at the piles of seeds before him, Chet's eyelids twitched. He wondered if he was here as a senior assistant or a melon seeds peeler.

"Ally likes these recently!"

Frederick explained everything in just one sentence. He then poured a pile out, and placed two pieces of tissue beside it for them to put the peeled melon seeds at.

Chet rolled his eyes, speechless. "Dear Mr. Clements, don't you know that you can buy melon seeds that are peeled?"

He had come to do some reporting, but was asked to provide free labor? What a sad life it was! Where did his intelligence go when it came to his wife? The great Mr. Clements was actually wasting time peeling melon seeds?

As he continued peeling seriously, Frederick casted him a glance and asked, "It's not the

same."

Who knew how those melon seeds were peeled and handled by others?

Besides, Ally liked freshly peeled ones!

After letting out a long sigh, Chet rolled his eyes and resigned himself to fate. He grabbed a handful and started peeling with a miserable look on his face.

"Frederick, there was news just now. The toxins in Uncle's body are almost dispelled. They used the most advanced steam therapy method. The addiction is cured. Fortunately, it was discovered early. After his condition stabilizes for a few more months, there should be no serious problem after!"

"Okay."

The subordinate paused for a while as the look on Frederick's face changed slightly, not saying a word.

Knowing that there was some sadness in him, and that he couldn't get over his father's betrayal and mother's premature death, Chet didn't say much and changed the subject instead.

"As for Blooming Flora, I found some information, and I'm almost getting to the bottom of it. I am quite sure that the person who shot you was the boss of Blooming Flora! His name is Steve. He is nearly fifty years old now, and is still single. He had a few years of military experience. He opened a restaurant, and sold clothes and fruits before. Things did not go smoothly for him! He must have made all sorts of friends. Then, he started the flower company and still operates it until today! As far as I know, although this company is small, and it owns a flower bed and a flower shop, its location, product, and reputation are not good. Logically speaking, the business should not be going well for this ordinary florist, but they have worked with many rich and powerful families, hotels, and done several major events, and many of them were because of Penny! I took the opportunity to inquire with the Kemp family butler about the Kempson Equipments Group, and he complained that the flower buds sent by them were not half- opened like what they asked for, while the other flowers were not in great shape which made them furious. They even directly said that if it weren't for Julia, they wouldn't have chosen Blooming Flora! Their services cost as much as 30 million dollars! Also, I found out that over the past few years, all the flowers for the Clements family were either directly or indirectly sourced from Blooming Flora."

"Are you saying he is on Penny's side?"

Gifts blind the eyes. Was he repaying Penny? It was reasonable. However, there was one thing

Frederick still didn't understand.

Why did this matter end halfway through? Saying so much, but doing so little, was the dumbest thing one could do!
