Chapter 176


    Frederick was shocked. Although he already had a premonition of it, he didn''t expect that she would


    really say it. He didn''t push her away but his tone was very serious as he tried to reject her politely.


    "Danica, I''m still married!"


    "I don''t mind it! Frederick..."


    Raising her head, she pouted her rosy lips slightly and was eager to kiss him. Danica''s eyes


    showed that she was begging him without any disguise.


    "God knows how many women you have slept with outside. I said you are disgusting! Do not touch


    me!"


    Alicia''s roar suddenly appeared in his mind. Turning his face sideways, Frederick avoided Danica.


    Instead, he grabbed her hand and spoke with a cold attitude.


    "Danica, don''t be silly! You should know me well. I hate this kind of thing the most!"


    Even if he loved her from the bottom of his heart, no matter how impulsive he was, as long as he


    was still in a marriage, he would not sleep with her. This was a matter of principle!


    He would never do that!


    With a slight shiver, Danica instantly realized that she had made a mistake.


    His mothermitted suicide because his father cheated on her and wanted to divorce her. He was


    abused and was ced into a dog cage. Thus, his temperament would often change drastically. He


    turned cold- blooded and became disgusted with women... It could all be traced back to his father''s


    betrayal of marriage.


    This was a thorn in his heart and the baggage that he couldn''t get rid of!


    Danica leaned against him, saying in a coquettish voice.


    "I''m so sorry. I''m just too scared of being alone... I want someone to apany me. Frederick,


    don''t be angry with me and don''t hate me. Could you stay here for a little longer?"


    The woman in front of him was thin and weak, appearing as if she had an illness. She looked fragile


    as if she could break easily. She was really different from the healthy girl in his memory who had a


    sweet smile.


    Frederick''s heart softened and his tone eased a little, "How would I? Don''t overthink."


    He raised his hand and stroked her hair, just as he had done in the past.


    In an instant, Danica grinned and squinted her eyes. She looked up at him with memories popping


    into her mind.


    "In the past, you liked to hold me and stroke my hair like this. I loved toy in your arms as it was


    veryfortable and warm... Frederick, do you remember that during the weekends, I would make


    you a cup of coffee and bake cookies? When you had finished your work, we wouldy on the sofa


    to watch TV together. You would even kiss me out of the blue and y around with me. In the end,


    we didn''t even have the slightest idea of what was going on in the show."


    Danica missed the feeling of the past very much!


    "For a period of time, you were obsessed with sunflower seeds. I would remove the shell for you


    even when my nails were all chipped... Every time, you would hold my hand and kiss it, saying that


    you wouldn''t let me do tough jobs in the future and you would take care of me for the rest of my life.


    You even said that I only have to prepare sunflower seeds for you. Even thinking about it now


    makes me want tough!"


    "Yeah."


    He nodded but his thoughts had already drifted to a ce tens of thousands of miles away.


    The woman in his arms was still the same as he remembered in his memory. The familiar feeling,


    voice and smell that made his heart throb. But, why did he always feel that something was wrong?


    In the past, he would always be very impulsive whenever he held her. On this day, she took


    the initiative to throw herself into his arms. Of course, he had a sudden impulse but he really


    couldn''t bring himself to be interested in her!


    If it was Alicia, he would have gone crazy!


    Could it be that deep down, he would treat people differently based on their looks as well? Did he


    think that the girl in front of him, Danica, was not as attractive as Alicia?


    No, every woman had always been the same in his eyes!


    It was needless to say when it came to that specific aspect.


    He had seen all kinds of beautiful women. No matter chubby or thin, they were all the same.


    Therefore, regardless of how pretty a woman was, in his eyes, they were just a pile of bones.


    Besides hatred, he would even feel annoyed.


    In his world, only Danica was different!


    She was innocent and kind. She was not afraid of him. She cared about him, smiled at him, and


    gave him warmth! His favorite girl was right in front of him but why was he thinking of her again?


    That woman who had no conscience, she must be counting her money again! Why would he care


    whether she thought of him as dirty or not? Frederick''s head was in a mess.


    His brain must have been run over by a car!


    With a burst of inexplicable agitation, Frederick came to his senses. Then, he heard Danica ask,


    "What do you think? Are you okay with that?"


    Frederick didn''t hear what she had said at all and a trace of panic and embarrassment shed


    across his face. He nodded instinctively.


    "Sure!"


    "You agree? Then, let''s go pay Grandma a visit together next week!"


    Frederick was shocked at once and he screamed out loud in his heart. If Grandma saw her, he


    didn''t know what would happen!


    He withdrew his hand and thought for a moment.


    Then, he replied, "Let''s wait for another two weeks! I have a big project going on recently. I have


    tons of things to attend to. Plus, you just came back. Let''s n it out properly before going!"


    She didn''t know that although she had talked about the past for a long time, Frederick didn''t listen to


    most of it. She didn''t even realize that Frederick was lost in his own thoughts. Danica thought that


    she had evoked his old feelings and that he was being considerate when in fact, he was just


    thinking about other matters. She threw herself into his arms and nodded meekly.


    "Alright! Okay! I''ll listen to you! As long as you are here, I don''t have to think about anything! What I


    longed for the most is to have a happy family. I''ll stay home during the day to nt and cook at


    night. We will eat together when my hubby is home..."

    This was what they envisioned their ''future'' to be when they were together in the past. The husband


    would be working outside and the wife would stay at home. The husband would be responsible for


    earning money to support the family and the wife would just have to worry about her appearance.


    Once upon a time, this was indeed what Frederick had envisioned for a ''marriage''. To have a


    gentle, considerate, virtuous, and gentle wife. He would support herpletely and protect her from


    all harm.


    However, at this moment, when Frederick heard her words, he felt inexplicably ufortable.


    Moreover, he even felt that such a life was boring.


    "As I have nothing to do, if I work a little hard, then I won''t drag my hubby down. Although it''s just a


    small amount of money, my hubby can work less and rest more! If you keep paying for me in this


    way, I will really be a filthy greedy person."


    Suddenly, a soft and sweet voice sounded in Frederick''s ear and he couldn''t help lifting the corners


    of his mouth. The memories of her working when she was free; getting caught by him several times;


    giving him excuses, and making him angry, all appeared in his mind, causing him to smile. However,


    his smile froze halfway.


    What was wrong with him? Was he bewitched?


    Frederick shook his head violently. He forced himself toe back to his senses and replied to her,


    "Wouldn''t such a life be boring?"


    "Why would it be? As long as I''m with my beloved, I''ll be happy to wait for him!"
