Chapter 240
In a burst of inspiration, Alicia was so focused on drawing that she had forgotten that it was time to get off work.
She carefully inserted her sketch in a folder and kept it in the drawer. She then shut down herputer and got ready to return home. She thought
that since Frederick had been so good to her that day, she needed to do something in return as well
After some consideration, she decided to buy some ingredients at the supermarket to make ravioli. "No ck pepper for him, he''s had enough of it!"
she thought to herself.
She wanted him to quit eating ck pepper!
Alicia couldn''t help butugh as she thought of this.
She left the office happily with her bag on her arm
However, the smile was wiped from her face as soon as she left the office. She saw Lindsay at the main gate.
"Why is she here again?"
After a long sigh, she bit the bullet and walked over. To no one''s surprise, Lindsay rushed over angrily and a magazine was thrown at Alicia.
"Alicia nchard, you shameless little b*tch!"
Looking down, she noticed that it was the piece of news Frederick had shown her. Amongst the photos, she noticed that one of them was of her and
Jeremy!
She immediately understood why Lindsay was here again. She red at Lindsay and said sarcastically, "I see you''ve gotten worked up again, should
I find a way to calm the buming fire within you?"
One kept pestering her while another was out for her blood. What was wrong with both of them? What did any of it have to do with her?
"Are you trying to record our conversation again? Yeah. I am cursing you, so what? You si*t, vixen, you shameless b*tch! You f*cking wh*re!"
A stream of curses flowed from Lindsay''s mouth and Alicia remained silent until Lindsay finally stopped.
"Are you done? Can I leave now?"
It was always the same curses. Wasn''t Lindsay tired of it?
As Alicia finished speaking, she strode over to the parking lot. It was better to avoid a head-on argument. It takes two to fight and as long as she
could still hold herself back. she would avoid a fight.
"Alicia nchard, are you showing me attitude? Stop right there!"This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
Lindsay chased after Alicia, reaching out as she tried to drag her. Alicia remembered that Lindsay was still pregnant and tried to control herself to
prevent causing harm to the baby. She was really afraid that Lindsay would me her if anything happened to the baby.
They stopped walking and Alicia shook Lindsay''s hand away. She instinctively chose a spot where the CCTV could capture everything. She didn''t
want to harm Lindsay; she just wanted to make sure that she was safe herself.
"When will you stop? Until when will
you stop going crazy over a man?
Look at me now, I''m living such a
good life, why would I want to steal
your man away from you? Are you
delusional? why do you have to
come at me@every time anything S
happensto Jeremy? Is this fun? Ife
weren ''Lhere, would you be ableto
guarantee that Jeremy would be
yours alone? Are you sure that there
wou dn''t be another me, another
woman? Are you nning to go and
make a scene every time he has
something going on with another
woman? If he really cared about you,
he would exin it to you himself! If
you really loved him, you would
isten to his words and believe them!
can''t stand the both of you! It was
just a few photos; the both of us
were in the middle of the streets.
What could we have done? We were
fighting back then! You must''ve
thought that we were flirting, right?
t''s only a photo!"
"Heh, such pretty words. If you really didn''t care about him, why do you wear these butterfly earrings out every day? You''re deliberately trying not to
make him forget about you! You''re just a hypocritical b*tch, going back on your words! Not only that. you''re a f*cking wh’*re who tries to make every
man out there fall for you!"
Lindsay''s eyes were red as she pointed at Alicia.
Alicia rolled her eyes, enraged by her words.
"Can you be reasonable? These earrings were given by my husband. I wear them because I like them. There are stories behind every gift! All the
things that I''m wearing now are gifts from my husband and they show that I belong to him! Who do you think Jeremy is? I can’t even like butterflies
because of him? Do I need to hate my husband''s gifts because of Jeremy? Then. should I kill all the butterflies in the world? I even have a nickname
called butterfly; do I have to change it and notify the people in my hometown to stop calling me by my nickname in the future? If I can’t change it, do I
have to kill myself? F*ck! What''s wrong with you?”
It was just a butterfly design and it had nothing to do with Jeremy. Why did everything just have to have something to do with him?
"You''re just covering up your lies
with excuses! You can lie to
everyone but not me! You obviously
can''t forget Jeremy! If you really
don''t care abqut him, why didn''t you
pawn those kutterfly earrings when
you were so-broke that you had now
Le :
ce to gléep? You are sucha ~S
scheming b*tch! Who knows what
horrible ideas you have in your”
mind? Aren''t you wearing those
earrings every day just tofnake
Jeremy think that you are € still
thinking about him? Something is
not right with him too, he would
always just stare at a shirt in a daze,
which also has a pair of butterflies
inked on it! Is it because of you that
he treasures that shirt like his baby?
And you! Why did you attend that
event? Not only that, you even
helped him do his tie! If it''s just a
normal photo, then why did he
download it and save it on his
phone?"
Lindsay''s face was flushed red with anger as she roared, "You''re obviously trying to make him think of you! You''re a f*cking b*tch!"
In an instant, Alicia fell into a daze. She remembered that she did design a suit for Jeremy for one of his birthdays. It was the only men''s clothing that
she had ever designed and she had finished it all by herself. After that, designing was something that was only left in her past.
Because it was her first time and she was inexperienced, the cuttings weren''t perfect and it wasn''tfortable. However, Jeremy was indeed really
happy on that day; he was really excited. The both of them almost slept together that day, but in the end, she avoided it with tears in her eyes. That
day was probably the first time they almost lost control!
Upon seeing Alicia''s reaction, Lindsay thought that she had gotten it right. She grew even more furious.
“You''d better stop thinking about it! No matter what you do and no matter how much he loves you, he will never ever be with you! His only sister
committed suicide because of your brother, his mother had also gone insane because of this. He hates you so much that he came back this time to
seek revenge for his sister! Do you think that he loves you? Do you even know why he pursued you? Think about why he did that to your family!"
Lindsay then sneered.
"He wants your family to suffer so
bad that you would rather die!
Furthermore, in his heart, you are
just an arrogant, ostentatious girl
who can''t take hardships. How could
he be attracted to you, a woman that
was willing tesell herself for money?
You didn''t ktew that, right? I have .
been in contact with him for the past
three years after he broke up watt
you. Iwas the one who
apanied him while hewas
abroad. But, who knew that we
would meet you when w@ returned! I
was the one who told him all the
news about you. So what if you kept
yourself clean while you were
dancing at the nightclub? In his
mind, he thinks that your job is to
sleep with all those men at work! I
thought that he had finally given up
but I never thought that he would
return to Casterwich City to expand
his business! On my father''s
birthday, it was I who had thrown
you over to an old man. What a pity
that he didn''t get to see it. You also
got what you deserved -that must''ve
been your first time but you didn''t
bleed!"
