Chapter 874
If someone told her before that she would willingly die for a man, Alicia would have slapped her in the face. After Jeremy's betrayal, men became a worldly possession, a mere element that added temporary brilliance to her life. It was just like the icing on the cake. You won't miss it if it wasn't there.
Now, the very thought of being abandoned filled her with terror. Alicia's eyes could not help but turn red again. It made her feel like she was in so much pain that she was suffocating. Her arms subconsciously tightened around him.
Alicia felt that it would be a hardship that she wouldn't be able to bear.
"Hubby, I love you! I can't lose you..." She took the initiative to give him a deep kiss. Alicia tightened her grip on his neck again. Frederick felt the anxiety of losing each other more than she did.
Stroking her soft hair, Frederick held her in his warm embrace. He closed the gap between them and consoled her gently.
"Silly girl! You won't lose me! The promise between us remains until death!"
Frederick laced their fingers tightly together and he looked into her eyes.
"Did you forget that I married you and also held a wedding with your 'soul'? Whether in life or death, you are mine and I am yours! My affection for you will never fade! Ally, if the time could be reset, I would rather suffer all the pain, than look for your shadow in someone. I almost lost you..."Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Thinking of the past, Frederick broke out in cold sweat. Last time, they were lucky. But what about this time? Would she misunderstand him again? Would she leave without looking back?
Frederick continued, "It will always be you, dead or alive! If we were to turn back the clock, no matter how long it takes, no matter how painful I would be, I will wait for you!"
They had already been separated once. This time, he prayed that she still remembers the promise between them. Could she wait for him? He wanted her to not only live but to live well!
Although Danica was malicious, her words made sense. If you couldn't make your own choices while you were alive, is it any better than death? Even if he had to be unscrupulous, he will get the antidote for her!
But it was not the right time. He couldn't risk her life. When Carson had made progress or when he got more information from Danica, he would definitely have a way to get the antidote for her!
Recalling the unforgettable experiences they had between them, symbolizing that their relationship had been raised beyond life and death, she smiled through her tears.
"Me too! If we could turn back the clock, even if I see you together with another woman, I would ask you personally to confirm! Remember our 'ten dates'? You said that no matter what causes us to separate, we must give each other a chance. One year, right?"
Her arms were around Frederick's neck, but Alicia was still a little anxious.
"Hubby, I know we have a lifetime ahead of us. Our prime is different. Women would be at their prime in their twenties and start to wither in their thirties. On the other hand, men would be in their prime when they are in their thirties. Perhaps, we may still encounter all kinds of temptations and challenges. My youth would eventually fade, but I believe that our shared experiences must mean something. You may be miserable, but you will never be lost. I believe in you, and I also believe in myself. Therefore, unless our relationship and love completely fall apart, we should never give up on each other easily, okay? No...not just a chance of one year, even if any one of us has a new love, we won't end it legally within the year. We have to give each other a year to settle down. Is that okay? You set a year, and I will add on another year, to make it fair!"
Leaning on his chest, she mumbled softly, "I hope we will always be happy, and never be separated!"
She held back on mentioning what she had seen. She was having mixed feelings, and her heart was unsettled. She also felt that she didn't seem like herself that day, and was a little out of control.
His purpose achieved, Frederick nodded with pleasure and said, "Okay! Two years! Let's make a pinky promise again! So that you won't feel uneasy!" This time, it was him who felt uneasy!
As long as she remembered this promise, there was no need for 2 years. He would resolve everything within the year.
Although it would be hard, and she might be hurt a little.
But If could keep her safe and resolve Danica's threats completely, then he was believed that their lives would be smooth sailing in the future. After their pinky promise, Alicia didn't want to hold back anymore. She decided to mention what she had seen that night. "Hubby, I don't want to say anything bad about Chet, and I'm not judging him too. But I just think that you should know about
it..."
After a moment of hesitation, she told him what she saw.
"However, the person I saw looked like Danica, and you! It didn't seem like Chet! He was driving your car, but maybe I was mistaken!"
"I see, got it! Don't worry, you can trust Chet!"
Caressing her hair, Frederick let out his first relaxed smile that night. Sorry, Chet! He had covered for Frederick and removed Alicia's suspicions. Even though the words may seem accusatory, she said it without emotion, out of concern.
She didn't mix her personal feelings and wasn't bias against anyone. This was the characteristic that Frederick admired!
She cared about him! But Chet took the blame for him, and also helped him out. The annual bonus for this president's personal assistant had to be doubled!
"By the way, Ally, have you had any contact with Danica recently? Or did something unusual happened? Did anything strange happened in the past six months?"
After he asked, he was afraid that she would become suspicious, so he added, "It seems that I haven't heard any news about her for a long time!" The implication was that he had only realized it after hearing her words just now!
Shaking her head, Alicia was also puzzled. Absorbing the warmth from his body, she replied in a depressed voice.
"The last time saw her was at the
entrance of the hot spring hotel when Victoria got married. I never saw her again after that. If I were her, being ignored by my own father then taken advantage of by my beloved 'foster mother', I would long for death!"
Came to think of it, she was such a blessed woman. Danica's life was pitiful.
Alicia shook her head and felt weird, so she quickly added.
"Although her parents were wrong, she was terrible too! She has no say about harming others. If I were her, I might have hesitated or given up on the marriage my parents disagreed with. would never steal the results from others' hard work, or frame a person who had been treating me well on purpose. As a human being, she lacked conscience!"
She didn't want Frederick to forget her evil deeds, so she had to remind him! In the past, she didn't give up her relationship with Jeremy for her family. But now, she deeply cared about her parents, she would now fight and ask for their consent. At the same time, she wouldn't give up her own choice, and would never lose her principles!

Frederick nodded with a smile and said, "She has reaped what she had sown, and karma came knocking on her door."
However, if they hadn't had any contact, how did she fall for her trick?
