Chapter 263


    Carson also felt very helpless. Once women started gossiping, no one could hold them back. With only two women, plus Danica who asionally


    interjected to reminisce the past, it was already noisy enough. In the end, he could only gaze sympathetically at Frederick.


    After all, such a situation wasmon in the past. Qiana had done this inadvertently, and if Frederick actually cleared things up and scolded them, it


    would be a little too much. That would basically mean that he was pping Danica in the face.


    Carson tried to stop the conversation several times but to no avail


    Alicia’s mind was in a mess. The sudden impacts came one after another and she hadpletely forgotten to react.


    On the other hand, Marshall just frowned, feeling a little strange. This atmosphere was too weird!


    But apart from a dryugh, he didn''t know what else to say; he couldn''t even talk about leaving.


    It wasn''t until Victoria rushed over that everything was halted. "Alicia, what are you doing? I''ve been waiting for you for a long time! Wow, two dolls!


    Perfect, we''ll take one each!"


    Without being considerate, Victoria painted to one of the dolls in Alicia''s hands and said, "Give this to me!"


    Only then did she gaze at the rest of them. She knew both Frederick and Carson but she had barely talked to them before. As for the rest of them,


    they looked familiar but she didn''t know their names.


    After nodding at them in greeting, she felt that the atmosphere was slightly off. She then looked away and grabbed onto Alicia''s arm.


    "Have you guys finished talking? Alicia, there''re a lot of fun things to do over there! We''re all waiting for you, stop chatting now, let''s go!"


    As Alicia came back to her senses, she smiled stiffly. "Okay!"


    Immediately, Marshall also said in a hurry, "I still have friends here, we''ll leave first then!"


    Victoria then took the bag containing the dolls from Alicia''s hands and pulled her away. "Let''s go!”


    After they''ve walked a distance away, Victoria lowered her voice.


    "What''s the matter? Did you offend some people? Just now, those two men who stood on both of your sides are two of The Four Great Masters in


    Casterwich City. They are Frederick and Carson! How amazing! I''ve seen them several times but I had always been with others when I met them,


    therefore we barely know each other! Did anything happen? Why do you look so down?"


    "No, listening to them chattering and talking about famous brands was so boring!"


    Alicia randomly found an excuse. She had been in aplete mess but fortunately, Victoria hade over to pull her away. Otherwise, she really


    didn''t know how long the torment wouldst.


    Alicia hadn''t been doing anything but she felt extremely fatigued.


    Because of the previous event, Alicia had to perform on stage. She gave herself a pep talk before selecting a cheery and upbeat song. Since she had


    been in East Bannpool before and she was a dancer herself, she could easily find two other dancers and they naturally moved to the beat as soon as


    the music started. On top of Alicia''s beautiful looks, her sexy moves attracted the attention of all under the shing lights.


    Victoria cheered and shouted for her under the stage from time to time. "You go, girl!"


    Frederick had already seen Alicia dancing before but his attention was still fully captured by her. Her stage presence came naturally and everyone


    screamed in excitement at every single movement of hers.


    It had originally been arranged that


    Alicia would perform first, then


    Qiana, and finally Danica. eect.


    the two ofthem were extremely


    shocked Not only was Alicia .


    extremely beautiful, but she was


    alsova natural at performingsEven


    tbgugh some people regarded her

    captured their attention. Content

    One single performance had almost outperformed the climax of the previous event, making the atmosphere extremely lively. As the manager walked


    past, he smiled in disbelief as he shook his head. He waved a waiter over and gave him an order.


    After a while, the waiter held arge bouquet of roses and handed them to Marshall


    The music wasing to an end. In fact, Alicia was in a daze throughout the song. The movements had all been muscle memory. It wasn''t until


    roaring apuse sounded that she reverted from her daze. Just then, Marshall walked over to her and handed her arge bouquet of flowers.


    "You are the best!"


    Taking a step forward, Marshall gave her a big hug. From the audience came another round of enthusiastic screams and whistles. Frederick''s gaze


    froze and his expression fell. If looks could kill, everyone in the room would''ve been finished off by his deadly re.


    Simrly, the expressions on the others’ faces also fell.


    Kaylee''s eyes darkened and Danica


    almost hurt her fi ngers from


    clenching hér fists. Both of them


    had guessed who Aliciawas, _<

    throughout the entire performance.


    Carson didn''t do so as well because


    he knew that he would be-done for if


    he praised Frederick''s giPright in


    front of him!


    Qiana was still clueless but a glint of jealousy shed across her eyes. She even offered apliment with a hint of sarcasm.Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    "Who would''ve known that she would be so talented! Marshall is so lucky to have such a beautiful girlfriend!"


    Zaydon, who had been immersed in the performance, was obviously still in a daze. "It was indeed very charming...”


    When he realized what he said, he quickly added, "I''m talking about her dance!"


    Even so, Qiana pinched him a little unhappily. With a smile, Zaydon hugged her.


    "Your ballet is stillparatively more elegant! How could she ever perform on an actual stage with moves like that?"


    Upon hearing that, Frederick gave him a sidelong nce.


    Soon, it was Danica''s turn and she


    chose to y-the piano. Even though


    she yed very well, not many in the


    audienceknew how to appreciate it>


    She was‘ebviously slightly out ofS


    ce in é a nightclub, thus the entire


    venue was clouded in silenceas she


    performed. The people whe-had


    surrounded the stage even started


    to leave, making it very


    embarrassing.


    Frederick didn''t pay attention to her at all, hence Carson could only pay the waiter and ask for a bouquet of roses to be sent as well.


    After walking around, Frederick finally found Alicia who had been lost in the crowd. As soon as he stopped in his tracks, several of his friends came


    over and greeted him enthusiastically.


    On the other hand, after stepping down from the stage. Alicia was in a mess and she couldn''t bear it anymore. After giving Victoria one of the dolls,


    she bid everyone goodbye.


    “I''m a little tired. I think I''ll leave now!"
