Chapter 49


    It was because she needed the money!


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Pursing her lips, Alicia lowered her eyes. However, she did not say anything.


    "Tell me!" he bellowed. Was she pretending to be pitiful and mute now? Did she dress like this for


    that man again?


    These thoughts flooded his mind, and Frederick''s tone was very unfriendly.


    It was already unlucky for Alicia to bump into Jeremy. She had been tired the whole day, and yet


    she had to be scolded by Frederick. Thinking of the ravioli that he had ruined while looking at the


    lipstick smudge on his cor, Alicia felt aggrieved. She got even more unhappy.


    "I''m in a bad mood! Can''t I dance to vent my anger?"


    After a slight pause, Frederick pulled a corner of her clothes and said, "Do you need to dress like


    this to dance? What''s with your heavy makeup? Tell me the truth!"


    He could understand if she wanted to have fun outside. He could ept if she wanted to dance. It


    was just that this method was a little shameful! Although she danced very well, how could he let his


    wife be the lead dancer in East Bannpool? What would his friends think?


    "What''s wrong with my outfit? I like to dance in this! Why can you do it but not me? At least I was


    dancing above board, unlike someone who hid behind closed doors doing something dirty! What


    kind of a clean freak is this? It''s all a lie!" Alicia shouted.


    She was not polite at all.


    Even if she told him the truth, would he believe her? Perhaps, he would even use her of having


    impure intentions, saying that she pretended to be pitiful, vain, and wanted to take his money! She


    didn''t use his money nor did she want to take his property. Why should she be scolded by him? At


    most, she could just divorce him!


    She was full of resentment and anger. She could not think straight.


    "Don''t you dare say that to me again!" Frederick responded with a sullen face. He felt that this


    woman was absolutely rebellious! Not to mention since the age of 16, no one had dared to


    contradict him!


    "I''ve said what I wanted to. What can you do about it? You piece of sh*t! You flirt with other women!


    You are shameless and unreasonable! You are disgusting!" Alicia yelled.


    "Alicia nchard!” Veins popped out on Frederick''s forehead. He raised his hand and wanted to


    strangle her!


    "Do you want to hit me? Just hit me then! Just beat me to death! Anyway, you will only bully me.


    After all, I can''t defeat you..."


    The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. Alicia suddenly broke down in tears. In


    fact, she didn''t want to cry, but when she cried loudly, it seemed that he really wanted toy his


    hands on her.


    Frederick was startled in an instant. He hadn''t done anything to her! Why did she cry?


    The anger that filled his mind seemed to dissipate instantly. At this time, a buzz from a cell phone


    was heard. He lowered his gaze, took his phone, and walked out of the door.


    "Grandma..." Frederick greeted.


    His voice still sounded a little impatient.


    Alicia bit her lip almost at the same time she heard this word.


    After ending the phone call, Frederick walked back and saw that Alicia was still standing in the


    distance. Her shoulders were slightly shaking, but she was pressing her lips together and sobbing


    silently. She must be angry and sad, but obviously, she was controlling her emotions and did not


    make a sound.


    She was a smart girl. Even if she was angry, she did not lose her mindpletely. Needless to say,


    this was why she was sensible and pleasant! Even though it was an instinctive reaction, it was good


    in Frederick''s eyes.


    Instantly, Frederick''s heart softened. He said in a softer voice, "There will be a banquet at home


    tomorrow night. Grandma wants us to go back!"
