Chapter 82
Frederick did not know what to say when she was clingy. She would cling to him no matter what. It
was still early, yet he was already overwhelmed with emotions!
She must be a snake! She was soft and cool, and she was even hugging him. But it was so
comfortable!
Looking at her arms on his body, Frederick could not specify who he was mad at!
Alicia also did not understand why it turned out that way. She slowly got away and bit her lower lip
apologetically before retreating half a meter away.
"Sorry, I didn''t mean it!"
She was fiercely scolded so early in the morning. She felt like a miserable little girl. She secretly
nced at him from time to time, but she did not dare to make a sound or move. Obviously, she had
not fully woken up yet. Seeing her in such a dazed condition, Frederick couldn''t control his temper.
"You brainless thing! How can you still be in the mood to sleep?"
Suddenly, he lifted the quilt and strode towards the bathroom. His movements were swift. Obviously,
he was in ''that'' mood. Alicia watched the quilt fall from the bed. At this time, the sound of running
water could be heard. She was in a daze for two seconds but instantly woke up.
Then, she pped her left hand with her right hand, then did the same to the right with her left
hand.
"How dare you disobey me! I messed up again..."
Alicia grabbed her hair. She had already concluded that her bright weekend was going to be
miserable!
Then, she got up, picked up the quilt, and dusted it. After Frederick cleaned himself, she quickly
went to clean herself for fear of being caught by him again. She did not put on makeup. The
moment he turned around, she followed him.
They walked down the stairs one after another, but Alicia did not dare to stand too close to him.
Ever since they got out of the bedroom, Frederick''s face had obviously calmed down a lot. He did
not walk too fast either.
As soon as they reached downstairs, he inadvertently nced and saw Pennying out of the
kitchen. Hallie''s voice could be hearding from the dining room.
Frederick and Alicia had gotten up very early this morning, but they did not expect the other two to
be earlier than them.
What a coincidence!
Frederick suddenly thought of how Carson mentioned the usage of birth control pills, and his eyes
darkened slightly.
Seeing Frederick suddenly stopped, Alicia thought that she was too close to him and that it made
him unhappy. She took two small steps backwards to keep a distance from him.
Frederick came back to his senses when he heard the shuffling sound. He looked at her from the
corner of his eyes. He was extremely exasperated. He turned around.
He said with a low voice, "What are you doing? Do you want Grandma to scold me?" Was she
afraid that the others would not notice that they had quarreled?
After being stunned for two seconds, Alicia understood what he meant. She quickly moved two
steps forward, held him with her hand, and lowered her head.
"I didn''t mean that!" she said.
He was sometimes cold and sometimes passionate towards her. He would constantly change his
actions. How could she know what he was thinking?
Frederick turned around and continued to move forward. The two of them also entered the dining
room. Their eyes nced around the room, then they took the initiative to speak.
"Good morning, Grandma!"
After greeting Mrs. Clements, Alicia also greeted Penny before sitting down, "Good morning, Aunt!"
"Morning!"
Mrs. Clements nced at Frederick with slight dissatisfaction as she drank some water. She
remarked, "You are so impolite!"
At this time, Mr. Clements entered with Mason. They greeted everyone one by one. Then, Mr.
Clements sat down. He was obviously in a good mood.
"It''s a good day today! It''s rare for you to get up so early! I have invited your uncle''s family to y
tennis at 9 o''clock. We will then go for a swim in the afternoon and have a barbecue at night. You
can join us!" Mr. Clements said.
He was talking to Frederick and Alicia. Alicia had no objections, but she could not make the
decision. She smiled and did not say anything.
Frederick took a piece of bread. He did not even raise his eyes as he replied, "I have a club event
today!"
There was a sense of sadness on Mr. Clements'' face. He then looked at Alicia and asked, "What
about you, Alicia?"
She did not expect him to ask for her opinion. Suddenly, she did not know how to answer. It did not
seem appropriate for her to stay, but if she did not stay, it would seem like she was disrespecting
the elders. After all, this was her first time being invited!
Fortunately, at this time, Mrs. Clements suddenly replied on her behalf.
"Of course Alicia will be with Frederick! It''s just a club activity, right? Can''t you bring your family
members along on weekends? Alicia can use this chance to know more about the club. Introduce
her around too. No one should break the rules of the Clements family! Come for the barbecue
tonight!"
It was obvious that there was a hidden meaning in Mrs. Clements'' words. It was like a tone of
command. Frederick understood immediately. Those words were aimed at him and that Mrs.
Clements was biased towards Alicia!
Although he was a little upset, he still nodded."Okay, let''s go together!"
At this time, the servant served the drinks. There was juice, milk, and coffee. Mrs. Clements would
usually eat oatmeals in the morning, and the men either drank coffee or juice. Hence, there were
only two cups of milk prepared.
After everyone took their drinks, Alicia took the milk. After all, she had been here several times. The
kitchen staff had a rough idea of her eating habits and preferences.
She nced at the table and found that it was a casual breakfast. Everyone could take whatever
they want. She liked all kinds of milk, and she liked to add sugar to it too. She had done this several
times, and Frederick had noticed it. The attentive people there had also noticed it too.
Hallie and her mother both took the juices. Frederick did not know whether it was his imagination,
but he felt that Penny eyed Hallie when she was taking the juice. Anyway, Frederick took it all to
heart.
Frederick and Alicia did not frequentlye back here, and they had limited time with the others.
They did not have much time to have meals together, and they only consumed a certain amount of
food. Frederick''s instinct told him that Hallie and Penny would tamper the milk instead.
Alicia liked drinking milk very much because its white color was pleasing to the eye.
As soon as she picked up the cup, Frederick''s fork hit the table with a snap. "Are you still a child?
You have the smell of milk all over you!"
He had unexpectedly scolded her, and Alicia was shocked. Everyone looked at him in surprise.
Mrs. Clements frowned instantly and said, "Frederick, what are you doing? Is Ally provoking you just
by drinking milk? You are getting bolder and bolder!"
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Being so despised by him, Alicia suddenly began to doubt if
she had the stench of milk all over her by drinking too much milk! After all, newborn babies were
indeed like this!
Moreover, she remembered that when she was in school, she went to the hot springs with Victoria
once. Victoria held her and told her that she had a sweet milky smell on her. It was very pleasant
and it made people want to take a bite.
Perhaps he was too picky, and that he could smell something special from her?
Being pointed out in public, Alicia still felt embarrassed and unhappy in her heart. However, she still
ced the cup of milk back.
"I''m a little full! I really can''t drink anymore. I''ll just drink some... water!" she said.
She wanted to say juice'', but she was afraid that after she said it, he would despise her again. Alicia
spoke in a low voice and she looked so pitiful. Mrs. Clements gave Frederick an unhappy look, but
she said no more.

On the opposite side of the table, Penny and Hallie''s hands were fiercely pinching their own thighs
under the tablecloth.
