Chapter 97
Every time she came to Mrs. Clements'' ce, everything was fine. Everything except this.
Although Frederick would turn into a beast every other night, she would always feel that he was a
very self- controlled person. Except for their first time which she did not have much memory about,
he would take protective measures whenever they slept together, no matter how passionate they
were.
Subconsciously, her intuition told her that he did not want her to have a baby! Perhaps he was not
optimistic about their future too!
Thinking of this, Alicia''s heart suddenly felt a little heavy.
Mrs. Clements noticed the change in her mood.
''''What''s wrong? Does he still treat you badly? Or has he been seduced by otherdies outside?
Ally! Don''t hide this from me. I can still stand up for you! No one shall break the rules of the
Clements family!1'' she said.
Until now, Alicia still did not understand the rules of the Clements family!
Suddenly, she recalled thest time when she mentioned divorce. Frederick seemed to have
mentioned something about the rules. Hence, Alicia responded in a dull voice.
"Grandma, what are the rules of the Clements family? Tell me, or I won''t understand anything when
I identally cause some troubles next time!" "Huh? Frederick never told you about it?" Mrs.
Clements asked.

It seemed that Ally was very surprised. Mrs. Clements could not help but stare at her, "Every
woman who has ever slept with a man of the Clements family should know the rules of the
Clements family. The first rule of the Clements family is that once married, they must never have a
divorce."
For many women, this was their dream!
It was also because of this rule that the Clements family had always been strict with the education
of their children and grandchildren, especially when it came to marriage. It was taught to them ever
since they were children. In addition to making contributions to the country, it was also their
responsibility to take care of the family, to love and protect their wives and children!
In Mrs. Clements'' opinion, it was a very happy thing to be a woman of the Clements family, whether
they were in love or not.
She was quite surprised that the granddaughter-inw who she was so proud of, did not even know
about the rules of the Clements family.
She must be a simple and innocent girl!
Mrs. Clements looked at her and she was even more satisfied.
"Well, you should let Frederick tell you the rest! Anyway, as my granddaughter- in-w, I won''t let
anything happen to you! Ally, I have only asked you a few questions. Why are you so shy already?
Those little vixens outside are very powerful! You have to seize this chance, and you must never
leave any chance for other women to attack. Do you understand?" she told her.
"Grandma, is Frederick even your grandson?" Alicia wondered in her heart.
She nodded and said, "Grandma, I will remember this! Let''s take a photo! He just told me that he
wanted to see you..."
As Alicia held her hands, she held the phone far away from her and took this opportunity to change
the topic.
She took a beautiful photo, which mainly presented Grandma''s bright smile. She edited it and sent it
to Frederick.
On the other side, when Frederick saw the butterfly earrings on her ears, he was in a good mood.
Then, he typed a few words in reply.
[Good, have a good time with Grandma!]
In the blink of an eye, two more days of work had passed. After finishing one day''s work, Alicia
looked outside the window and stretched her body. Then, she looked at the green nts on the
table.
It was yet another weekend. She looked at the work on her hands and estimated the amount of time
needed for two manuscripts. She thought that she could find a day to visit her parents. She felt that
it would be a very beautiful day.
As expected, with Fredrick being absent, she could be more efficient with her work.
After packing up her things, Alicia decided to do a rehearsal dance in the evening and record her
voice along the way. She could take it to the hospital when she visited him during the weekend. She
could talk to her father more too.
When she walked out of thepany, her cell phone suddenly rang. "Victoria?"
She answered the phone and heard that she had invited her for dinner. After looking at the time,
Alicia said, "Now? I have something to do today. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at
noon!"
After agreeing on a time, the two of them chatted for a while. Just as Alicia put down the phone, she
looked up and saw Jeremy standing near the entrance again.
For a moment, she was speechless.
What was the meaning of him standing around herpany''s door every evening? Was he being a
piece of sh*t trying to disgust her?
She nced at him from the corners of her eyes. Alicia turned around and walked to the other side.
Jeremy parted his lips, but he did not make any sound even after a long time. It was because his
eyes would subconsciously look at the earrings on her ears for a long time, and he would be at a
loss.
He did not chase after her. He took out a cigarette and lit it instead. After smoking, he turned around
and left. He had done the same thing for three days straight!
Fridays and Saturdays were the best nights for dancing. The pay on these two days was 20 percent
higher than usual.
This was a rare opportunity. Alicia called the manager and asked him for a slot. She did not expect
herself to be so lucky.
As soon as she heard that she had a dancing slot, she immediately agreed and ran over.
Frederick was not around, thus, she did not even hesitate. However, she still had some scruples.
Hence, she asked the manager to arrange an earlier slot for her, the sooner the better. Since it was
rare for her to dance, whenever she performed, she would get some special treatment.
The luckiest thing she had encountered in the past two yearsing to Casterwich City was
meeting such a good manager at East Bannpool.
This time, she chose a Spanish dance. She ced a rose next to her ear and a ck gauze that
covered half of her face. It was a hot and unrestrained dance, coupled with her own "magical" style,
which set off waves of apuse.
After finishing the dance smoothly, Alicia went to get her sry of 3,000 dors immediately. She
felt so proud when she got the money. In fact, even though her recent years were tough, she would
always feel a little sense of aplishment every time.
Her hard work was recognized. It was a type of satisfaction that only she could understand!
Even so, she did not stay in the nightclub for long. She changed her clothes and wrapped herself in
a ck coat before leaving quickly.
She would do this every time she came to the nightclub. For the sake of safety, she would only stay
for a short time and she would not eat anything there. She would bring vapor rub with her, and she
would often bring her own water.
The day came and went in a hurry, and the night arrived again. Her throat felt very ufortable.
When she walked out of the nightclub, she went to arge supermarket at a corner to buy a bottle of
mineral water.
As soon as she returned to the car, a figure in white rushed out and said, "Alicia, it''s really you?
What a coincidence!"
Alicia almost choked herself to death as she swallowed a mouthful of water, "Ahem!"
Lindsay?
"What''s wrong with you? Did I scare you?" Lindsay asked. She stretched out and pretended to be
close to her. She then patted Alicia''s back.
As Alicia took a step back, she rolled her eyes as if she had seen a ghost. She thought, "How
shameless was this woman? Or was she really so forgetful? A few days ago, she could not wait to
break down my door, but at this moment..."
While she was deep in her thoughts, she saw Lindsay raise a hand and say, "Jeremy, over here!"
