Chapter 34
Alicia was afraid that Frederick would say something that he shouldn''t on the phone. Therefore, she
pretended to be shy and took a few steps toward the door. Then, she pressed the answer button.
She wanted to speak first to give him a hint, but unexpectedly, a head-on scolding was first directed
at her.
"Are you a snail? What took you so long?" Frederick questioned.
Hearing his tone, Alicia realized how wise her decision was! However, Mrs. Clements was still
staring at her. Hence, she could not argue with him. She could only be patient and answered in a
delicate voice.
"Hubby, I''m eating at Grandma''s house. I''m waiting for the ravioli! Have you eaten? Are you tired
from work? When will youe back? Grandma and I miss you so much!"
Because Mrs. Clements was listening, Alicia felt that she should show her concern. Of course, it
was more like she wanted to tell him that Mrs. Clements was there. Thus, he should be careful with
his words and not put on airs!
Frederick, on the other end, who had been waiting for her to make a call, felt like his whole body
was warmed up. He softened his attitude instantly when he heard her speaking in a soft and
concerned tone suddenly.
"I''ll be back soon!"

"Hubby, take good care of yourself. Don''t be too tired. Make sure you are in good health and be
careful..."
After chatting for a while, Alicia also asked the other two if they wanted to talk to him.
Finally, she hung up the phone after saying, "Hubby, goodbye!"
Alicia did not expect that he would call her out of the blue. After the call, her heart was beating
wildly for a long time. When she returned to Mrs. Clements''s side, she lowered her head shyly. Mrs.
Clements only squinted her eyes with a smile.
The ravioli had also been taken out of the pot. Since there were no outsiders, the three of them sat
at the dining table together. From the beginning of the meal until the time Alicia left, Grandma kept
focusing on one topic while speaking - having a baby!
When Alicia got home, her heart was still racing.
Mrs. nchard was still waiting for her when she entered the house. Alicia let her have a taste of
the ravioli and wild spinach that she had brought back. After that, they went back to their own rooms
to have a rest.
When Alicia got into bed, she was so excited that she couldn''t fall asleep. She took out her cell
phone and sent a message to Frederick.
[ Because of someone''s phone call, I am so miserable...] The text was followed by three crying
emojis.
The text was followed by three crying emojis. There was also an animated picture of a baby
attached to the text. She sent it casually. It was a little cartoon girl, surrounded by a group of people
with dialogue boxes on their heads.
[Ovtion] [How many red lines are there?] [Have a second baby!]
On the receiving end, Frederick almost spat out a mouthful of coffee after opening the text. He
laughed loudly on the spot.
He could imagine the scene of Alicia getting fatigued from being bombarded by Grandma. He
tapped his fingers lightly and typed a few words. [ Yes, let''s work hard!]
Thinking about having a child with her, Frederick felt that he actually didn''t mind it. The next second,
he felt that he was crazy.
How could he want to have a child with her?
Frederick was shocked by his own sudden change while remaining expressionless, thinking, "If it
weren''t for the mistake of having a child identally, how could he marry her?"
The dark screen reflected his face, and the pair of dark blue eyes were particrly dazzling. He
clicked on the text again. Looking at the animated picture, he no longer felt that it was cute.
"Did she do it intentionally? She sent me a picture with profound meanings... What does it mean? Is
her scheme hidden in the picture?" he thought to himself.
Alicia didn''t know that Frederick''s thought had taken a radical turn at this time. Looking at the reply,
Alicia''s gaze fell on the line "Let''s work hard", and couldn''t help but blush.
