Chapter 1044
Chapter 1044
Alicia had been friends with Sue for a long time. She knew the kind of woman Sue was. Sue had
been trying to use Alicia to marry a rich guy, yet she wanted nothing but the best. She didn''t like the rich
guys who liked her, but the ones she had her eyes on spared her no affection. Yet, she still tried to
seduce them like a fool. Even though those men''s wives knew what Sue was doing, they never
attacked her due to her friendship with Alicia. Though, they would talk behind Alicia''s back.
This wasn''t the first time Sue did it. However, Alicia kept trying to cover for her because they were
college friends, and thanks to that, Sue managed to stay in the circle of the wealthy. This time, she
tried to cover for Sue as usual. "Sorry, Miss Whitney. She just wants to marry the best, but she means
no harm. I''ll tell her that."
"You know Miss Taggert better than I do. I trust you just like how you trust her," Ariel mocked.
Alicia looked away nervously. This isn''t the first time she''s done this. I can''t tell Ariel that she''s actually a
good person.
Ariel thought she had pushed far enough, so she said solemnly, "Miss Heidelberg, you''re a good friend.
Danny and I are willing to be your friend, which brings me to a serious topic. Keeping a scheming person
around is a hazard. They might explode in your face one day, and you might end up dying."
Alicia had wanted to cut ties with Sue a long time ago, but every time Sue came up to her, Alicia
would relent and drop the idea. Now that Ariel was already telling her to break off ties with Sue, she
would do just that. She figured she would do it after they went back. "Thank you, Miss Whitney. I''ll take
your suggestion into ount. Sorry to trouble you."
"No worries. Thanks for saving Danny. See you. Have fun tonight."
"See you." Alicia sent Ariel off and closed the door. Alicia stared at the bottles of water in her hands.
A whileter, Sue came out of the bathroom draped in a piece of towel. She dried her hair and looked
at Alicia standing at the room entrance. "Who was it just now?"
"No one. You were hearing things," replied Alicia.
"No one. You were hearing things," replied Alicia.
"I see." Sue shrugged it off. She looked at the bottles of water Alicia was holding and froze. Hey, that''s
the water Ariel had. Alicia has them as well? Howe I don''t know? "I''m parched. Give me a bottle."
She snatched a bottle and took a gulp, demolishing half a bottle in one go. Then, she scoffed. "It''s
nothing special."
After saying that, she smiled smugly. And Ariel said I wasn''t worthy of this. Look at me now. I want the
best of the best. Even the man I date must be the best.
Ugh, she has that stupid look again, Alicia thought while shaking her head. She then changed the topic
and said, "Get changed. We need to start our hike soon and get a good spot, or we''re going to miss the
meteor shower."
"I know." Sue finished the remaining water and straightened herself out.
Twenty minutester, thedies were making their trek up the mountain. The observatory was on the top.
The hotel was at the mountainside, so they had to trek if they wanted a better view. Even though Alicia
was holding most of their stuff, Sue was already sweating and huffing not long after they started to
trek. Eventually, she got dizzy, and her legs wobbled. "I can''t go on." Sue leaned on the guardrail.
"How much farther? I can''t go on any longer."
"What?" Alicia looked behind them. That''s like two flights of stairs. She shrugged. "You really need to
train, Sue. Take your time. I''ll set up camp." Thinking that Sue was just out of breath, Alicia left her
alone. There were a lot of people here for the meteor shower. She wasn''t worried about Sue. If
anything happens, some of the tourists will help. Alicia exercised a lot, and without Sue holding her
down, she was gone in a sh.
Sue stopped for a moment and tried to catch up to Alicia, but then her stomach churned, and she
retched. I can''t go on. Better go back and rest. She held her nausea in and wobbled back to the hotel,
evading all the tourists.
"No one. You were hearing things," replied Alicia.

Her whole body was ring up when she was in the elevator. Every inch of her skin felt like it was on fire.
Slowly, her consciousness was starting to fade, and she tugged on her shirt, trying to cool herself down.
Her whole body was ring up when she was in the elevator. Every inch of her skin felt like it was on fire.
Slowly, her consciousness was starting to fade, and she tugged on her shirt, trying to cool herself down.
The elevator door swung open, and she leaned on the wall as she moved ahead. Her will was what kept
her conscious. Just then, she bumped into someone and fell over. "Water… I need water," she muttered.
Her throat was parched, but then she noticed a familiar scent. It woke her up a little. "Mr. Danny, is that
you?" She leaned on the man before her, touching him all over.
The man stayed silent for a while. Danny? He picked the woman up and took her into Room 206.

At the observatory, since Elise was pregnant, Alexia told her to sit down while she and Irvin happily set
up a tent. The kids worked well, and thanks to Elise''s guidance, they set up their tent in less than half an
hour. Then, they hung somemps. The fluorescent star stickers on the tent started glimmering, filling
the air with innocence.
Danny and the others finally came when the moon was hanging high up in the sky. The first thing they
did upon their arrival was to tease Alexia. "Ooh, that''s a nice tent. I bet you can dream of a meteor
shower if you sleep in it. Can I have the tent for the night, Lexi?" Jamie ced a carton of wine on the
pic mat.
"No! You''re a baddie, Godfather." Alexia stood before the tent''s entrance and opened her arms. She then
scrunched up her nose, making everyoneugh. Hey, they''re ying around with me! Alright, Godfather,
you asked for it. She quickly hugged Narissa''s leg. "Godfather''s a bully!"
Narissa hunkered down and straightened Alexia''s hair. Then, she said, "He''s going to sleep on the
ground tonight, then."
"Great idea!"
