Chapter 268
"It's not that I don't care about you or that I don't want to admit it. The situation last night was just an exception. If I had said it, everyone will be embarrassed, you would inevitably be embarrassed too! Ally, I don't want to hurt you and I don't want to hurt Danica either. Although she is my past, she was once one of the few very important people in my life! I will not quarrel with her, nor will I give her hope! Nevertheless. I still respect her. I will not embarrass her, I do treat her as a friend without any personal affections. I just want her to live a better life! It was just a play on occasion! I will try my best to avoid it in the future! Don't worry about last night, okay? I was in utter shock when I saw you last night. Although you stood in the direction of my opponent. I knew how much you valued money. That was why I didn’t put in my full effort during the game. I have always obtained full marks in shooting classes; it would've been easy for me to shoot down the balloons!”
This implied that Alicia’s partner's performance was bad. Even though Frederick didn't put in full effort. they still couldn't get first place! It was reasonable but Alicia was pondering on something.
‘Anyway, people are not around, therefore you can just say whatever you like! Different words for different people! Thus, you're a cheater! Cheater! Yes, that's you! When you're with her, you will probably talk the other way around. I'm the one who pesters you and you can’t get rid of me! Oh yeah, you also presented her earrings! Could it be you wanted to respect her as you had no choice? Or was there someone who forced you to give it to her?"
Thinking of this scene, Alicia's anger rose again. Yes, he had almost tricked her successfully ance again!
Frederick was helpless. He got up and walked to the other side.
In an instant, Alicia's heart was shattered into pieces. Did she get it right? He didn't even try to explain it, did he?
Suddenly, she felt a lump in her throat. Indeed, her rationality had been messed up by her sickness. Was she about to fall for his lies again? Holding her hair, Alicia tugged on it fiercely. She hoped that her numb scalp would make her sanity clearer.
"Don't repeat the same mistake again! The knife of love is invisible and hurts the most! If you do it again, you won't be hurt but instead, you'll die ata young age!" she told herself.
All of a sudden, a receipt was presented before her eyes. Alicia paused "What?"
"King & Q Jewelry? Don't you see it? The longing for love. These are the earrings I ordered and I haven't gotten them yet! Although they are exactly the same as those on her ears, I didn't give them to her! I ordered them and wanted to give them to you! You used to like pear-shaped items, didn't you? Last time when I was on a business trip, I bought you a pair of flowery earrings and I realized that they had water droplets designs that were also pear-shaped. But. guess what? Hannah wore them without notifying me. Since they were dirty, I let her take them away. This time. I purposely chose these earrings. I choose this design because of the pear shape! A pair of earrings with exactly ten droplets in total; They were so adorable, just like the feeling you give me! The shopkeepers haven't notified me to pick up the goods yet!"
Sitting down by the bed, Frederick pinched her cheek gently. "You are still upset! You've misunderstood me!" Obviously, he had done nothing! Frederick moved forward and hugged her.
"I don't know when I started developing a habit. I would think that I just can't come back empty-handed when I'm on a business trip. When I see good- looking items, I want to purchase them for you! You must be beautiful wearing them! I can't even please a woman who is delicate and money-minded, how can I have time to please others? At this time, why would I give her something? Wouldn't it make her misunderstand and trouble me? Who knew that she got similar earrings coincidentally! She even allowed the others to misunderstand! I denied it but she ignored my rejection! They're women and it's only a pair of earrings, therefore I let them go. Ally. I wouldn't give anyone gifts randomly, you're my wife..."
Therefore, Alicia was an exception because she was his wife and his woman. It was natural for him to give her presents and spoil her!
Everything he gave to her was meaningful. Who would be dumb enough to give a woman they hate presents and cause themselves trouble? He wasn't dumb.
Thinking of something, he added.
"I really don't know what kind of clothes you like! These casual and popular styles have been recommended by the storekeepers. The quality was quite good and I let them choose from the mainstream styles. What does it have to do with Danica2. What kind of style does.she like? How would I know about that? Evernif I knew about it, it was six years ago. Women change. Clothes every day. The trend in this year should be different from last year, let alone six years. Don’t link everything to her! Even if both of you are twins, both of you are still different. How could I not know who I like? By the way, both of you aren't twins. If you really hate this place, we'll live in another place! Don't argue with me about these fake coincidences, okay?"

Looking at the receipt in his hand, Alicia noticed the date on it. It was indeed booked a long time ago and it wasn't the time to pick it up yet.
Could it be that Danica had acted
p etentiously the night and before deliberatelysaid that the earrings were presented by Frederickto show thet relationship between them in front of her friends? After all’ having such a boyfriend likes Frederick could make everyone envious, not to mention that he had been so kind to her before...
This explanation was acceptable to her!
They had all said that the character of a person would reveal after breaking up. If Frederick completely vetoed Danica at this time, devalued her for nothing, and didn't care about any old feelings, Alicia should be cautious of him then!
He didn't deny the beauty of the past and he was pretty sure about his current situation. In fact, Frederick's worldly views and attitude coincided with those in Alicia's subconscious mind!
It was similar to how Alicia felt towards Jeremy. Although there was a lot of hatred, it couldn't be denied that he used to spoil her tremendously and gave her good things even though his intentions might've been fake
She felt that Frederick was being responsible.
He had done so much for Danica, which proved-that he was devoted and sincereto a relationship. If he ~ used tote like this to Danica and-fie had lego of her at present, wautd he treat her the same? Even ithe wasn't putting in all his effort, at least his attitude was right!
Suddenly, Alicia felt that Frederick was worthy of her to pursue. She hugged him tighter and said. "I like lilies and evergreen trees, and I like things that represent longevity!” Anyway, as long as it was not jasmines, anything would do! Alicia didn't hate jasmines previously but at this moment, she really
despised them.
