Chapter 126


    "Frederick? Why did hee here?"


    Her heart was beating wildly as if it was about to jump out from her chest. She instinctively turned


    her body sideways.


    At this time, Frederick, who had been answering the phone at the door all this while, came into the


    hall. He nced at the stage for a split second without paying attention. Before he noticed anything,


    he lowered his head and focused on his phone again.


    He pressed the send button. As soon as he looked up, Carson came over in a hurry and greeted,


    "Frederick, you''re here too!"


    Carson ced his arm on his shoulder and nced at the stage, "Are you here to-" He wanted to


    ask whether Frederick was there to support Alicia.


    However, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the host''s loud voice on the


    stage. "Last three minutes! The countdown starts now! Any man who hasn''t voted yet, please hurry


    up!"


    At this time, Frederick lowered his head while replying to a message. He continued to walk and said


    absent-mindedly.


    "Wait a moment! I have to vote for Hannah now!"


    "Huh?"


    It was obvious that Carson was dumbstruck for a split second. Then, he ran up to him while


    thinking,


    "Hannah is back? Why didn''t I notice that?"


    He wanted to ask Frederick whether he was really not nning to vote for Alicia, but they had


    already walked to the stage. As it was a one-way road, Carson had no choice but to swallow the


    words he was going to say.


    Alicia was the fifth contestant and she stood at the innermost side. She deliberately avoided him


    and turned her face to the other side. Just as she was getting anxious, a deep male voice could be


    heard.


    "Why? Is my ticket not weed?"


    When she turned around, she saw a handsome young man. Alicia quickly smiled and replied,


    "Thank you for your support!"


    As soon as she reached out to take the voting stick, her hand was suddenly grabbed by him. In an


    instant, her expression fell.


    "What are you doing?"


    "Don''t panic! I just want to talk to you for a while. I''m sure you don''t want everyone to hear it!"


    What did he mean? Did he want her to get closer?


    Alicia frowned and still forcefully withdrew her hand. She was a little irritated. When she was


    thinking about whether to p him in the face, the man asked her a question out of the blue.


    "Don''t you remember me?"


    Looking up, Alicia was flustered for two seconds and thought, "Do we know each other?''1


    When their eyes met, the man gave her a deep meaningful smile. "I''ll wait for you below the stage. I


    am Marshall rk!"


    Alicia was still in a trance but the man had already let go of her hand.


    "Marshall rk? Who is that?"


    After searching around in her mind, she couldn''t remember dealing with someone with this name or


    this face. Finally, Alicia came to a conclusion.


    He must''ve been a lunatic!


    While she was getting annoyed, an enthusiastic female voice was heard, "Thank you, my dear!"


    Contestant number three?


    "Someone voted for the third contestant?"


    Subconsciously, Alicia tilted her head to take a look. Instantly, a chill went straight down her spine.


    "Frederick?"


    Her mind was buzzing. In an instant, Alicia''s face turned dull as the brilliance on her face faded


    away.


    What was the rtionship between him and the third contestant? How could he vote for another


    woman rather than her?


    Seeing that Frederick had really voted for Hannah and thinking of what he said earlier, Carson could


    only vote for Hannah reluctantly as he stood behind Frederick.


    Alicia''s heart seemed to have been hollowed. In an instant, she had no strength to continue with this


    competition anymore. It was like a heavy hammer hitting her heart every time she heard the word


    "thank you".


    She watched as the majestic figure walked over, and Alicia couldn''t even exin the emotions and


    feelings she was having. In an instant, she felt as if she had returned to the wedding three years


    ago. Her most beloved and dependent boyfriend had abandoned her under the crowds'' gazes.


    When walking past her, Frederick took a nce inadvertently. Then, he halted when he saw her and


    the model beside her.


    Instantly, Frederick was shocked and in disbelief on the stage.


    The moment their eyes met, Alicia turned her head coldly to avoid his gaze. Then, several men


    walked past him and went down the stage. Carson headed over and looked at the two of them. It


    was obvious that he had noticed something strange.


    "Frederick..." he whispered to Frederick to remind him of his whereabouts.


    Then, the two of them went aside while Frederick had his brows snapped together.


    As soon as the two walked down the stage, Carson spoke.


    "Frederick, didn''t you talk to Alicia in advance? She doesn''t seem happy! I wanted to ask why did


    you vote for Hannah just now? Wasn''t it a p in her face if you did so?"


    "You saw her earlier on?"


    Hearing Frederick''s words, Carson was even more surprised. "Didn''t you notice that Alicia was on


    the stage?"


    No wonder he voted for Hannah! In fact, Carson felt that Alicia''s design was obviously more special


    and brilliant. Even if he didn''t know her, he would''ve voted for her.


    In an instant, Frederick''s face darkened. Looking at his eyes, Carson felt that Frederick was going


    to kill him.


    Carson scratched his head and felt wronged.


    "I didn''t expect it to turn out like this either! How would I know that you didn''t know it? I wanted to


    say it but you were the one who pulled me onto the stage... However, I didn''t see clearly that


    contestant No. 3 is Hannah! No wonder you..."


    Looking at the stage, Frederick''s gloomy face got as dark as gathering storm clouds.


    "D*mned woman, is she trying to fill her money vault again? D*mn it!" Frederick thought. He was so


    busy earlier on that he didn''t really pay attention to the stage. If he saw her, he would rather give up


    the vote than be in such a situation!


    Just as he was feeling annoyed, he saw a familiar tall figure walking to the stage slowly.


    Jeremy Pitcher?

    He came as well?


    Immediately, Frederick''s deep eyes were shooting daggers. He watched him as Jeremy slowly


    stopped in front of Alicia.


    Their eyes met, and in an instant, it seemed that they had returned to the embarrassing moment


    many years ago.


    Back then, she was tricked by her ssmates and it was extremely embarrassing. She was afraid


    that she would fail. At that time, his appearance made a huge sensation all over the campus. It was


    probably the first time that she saw him, who was a legendary figure on the campus!


    The same went for him. He walked up to her, looked at her, and handed her a red rose.


    Alicia was dumbfounded. She didn''t understand what his intention was at this moment. Did he


    prepare some other tricks to humiliate her?


    Noticing the alert in her eyes, Jeremy reached out his hand again and praised, "You''ve done a great


    job! Take it!"


    He took her hand and handed the Star te to her gently. This time, he did not do anything to flirt


    with her. He gave her a warm smile and turned around to walk down the stage.


    If her memory of them when they first met had been ruined, he wanted to give her a pleasant


    memory then!


    Alicia was dazed on the stage. For a long time, her posture remained the same. Under the stage,


    Frederick was acting the same too...
