Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Did he have an appointment, a social event? Or was it... a date?

Alicia was taken aback by the sight of him. She slowly stepped on the accelerator while she put on a pair of sunglasses.

It was then that she started to tail his car from a distance. Unknowingly, they were gradually moving further away from the city. She was quite puzzled, "Where on Earth is he going?"

As soon as a thought popped up in her mind, the black car had stopped at the front gate of a garden: Hundreds Floral

Hundreds Floral?

Was this the largest flower market in the southern suburbs of Casterwich City that Miriam had mentioned before? She said that the roses here were very expensive as they were uniquely planted. Those flowers bloomed for 99 days without a single one wilting; they were uniformly sized and there were a variety of colors!

Once upon a time, Jeremy had delivered blue roses to Alicia's company for her. She remembered him mentioning that the roses were from Hundreds Floral and they were pricier than other florists. Moreover, the blossoming period of their seven-colored roses could be controlled with a culture solution. With this, they were able to arrange the roses to form a few simple words for their customers. Therefore, their flowers were very well-known!

Did he travel all the way here just to buy flowers for someone?

In the past, Frederick had never gone so far merely to buy her some flowers!

She watched as he entered through the side door, which was obviously different from the main door and the other entrances. There were two words clearly labelled above the door, "Rose Garden".

He actually came here for some roses!

All of a sudden, Alicia's chest started to ache. She pursed her lips and she remained still where she stood.

Right after he entered the side door, Frederick took out a key to unlock the other door on the inside.

At this moment, the staff members who noticed his arrival greeted him enthusiastically, "Young Master, you're here!"

"Yes. Do whatever you're supposed to do, don't mind me!" "Of course!" As soon as the gatekeeper turned around, he suddenly added, "Hold up, could you get me a bouquet of red roses? Any amount will be fine, as long as there isn't a meaning behind the number of roses!"

"Right away!"

Turning around, Frederick walked across the rose garden into the greenhouse. The greenhouse was closed since the blossoming season of the roses had passed. Despite that, the atmosphere inside still felt like spring. After strolling through rows of roses, Frederick headed towards a small platform constructed in the center of the greenhouse. He sat down in front of a marble cenotaph and extended his hand to touch the partially-carved human figure on it. Her delicate and beautiful face seemed to be smiling at him as if she was still alive.

"Ally, I came to see you!"

"Look, I even got your favorite red roses for you! They have a pleasant scent! Is it fine if I bury them here with you?"

While touching the sculpture, he muttered to himself.

"I'm having dinner with Faye tonight... So, I came here first to inform you about it. Ally, you've never once left my mind. I will never forget about you!" "Why did you leave me?"

"Did you know that every day feels like a dream to me? It's a long, surreal dream... A fake dream that I'll never wake up from! I can't believe that you're gone just like that! It's like you barged into my life out of the blue, and suddenly..."

"Ally, I've missed you so very much. Every time I come back home, I'm always hoping that you'll suddenly pop out and say with a smile, 'Hey Honey, you're back'... Just like how you used to. I look forward to it everyday, yet I'm disheartened each time!"

"Ally, no matter who I'm with or what I do, I'll never let you down!"

Frederick stroked the outline of the figure on the cenotaph. Glancing at the rows of red roses, he murmured softly.

"Ally, I know that you get jealous easily. You're sensitive, and not to mention, you're a neat freak. You even disliked the fact of me getting close to any other woman!"

After sitting down for a long time, Frederick felt that the sky was getting dark. He then slowly got up, but his legs were numb.

"Time flies whenever I pay you a visit!"

As he stretched his legs, he smiled again.

"I'll come by more often next time! If making you jealous could bring you back to life... then nobody

would ever bother me again."

He sighed for a long time before he closed his eyes and wiped away the tears that welled up in his eyes. He bowed deeply. "Ally, please wait for me, I promise that I'll be with you soon. When we get to heaven, you'll be my bride! I love you..."

He muttered to himself. After his mood had adjusted, he turned around and left the garden.

At this moment, Alicia was seated in her white Ferrari from a close distance. She wasn't certain how long she had been waiting for Frederick's appearance. All of a sudden, she came back to her senses and caught a glimpse of him with a bouquet of red roses in his hands as he got into the black car.

In an instant, she felt as if her heart had crumbled into a thousand pieces...

Shortly, she started her car and

Pet

began to tail him again. They made a detour on the route back to the city. She deliberately maintained distance on the road before she got closer to him in the city. At an intersection, she saw him as he exited the car and picked up a

woman in a light grey lace dress!

All of a sudden, she immediately braked in front of the red lights. Her mind went blank as she stared at the skinny figure, the black straight hair and the elegant dress... She seemed familiar!

Danica?

No, she looked similar to Danica. She must be Faye!

Alicia watched as the two of them started to chat and laugh before they got in the car. A chilling shiver ran down her spine and her lips twitched. "Why is Faye here? Why did I follow him? Aren't I humiliating myself?" She pondered.

Her slender fingers were firmly wrapped around the steering wheel. She knew that she should've given up and left them alone. However, when she heard the impatient honk from behind, she was seemingly bewitched by it and she kept following them all the way, until they took a turn...

When she snapped out of it, she had already come to a stop in front of a high-end restaurant. There were no traces of them, only their car. She slowly stopped by the roadside while she turned off the car's engine and remained in her car. She looked out of the window with a dull gaze. She assumed that Frederick wasn't sad at all, that he was the type of man to indulge in wine and women. Why was she even here at this moment? Why didn't she just leave?

What on earth was she expecting?Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

The emotions in her heart were disarrayed and her mind was blank till the point that nothing could be processed. For a long time, Alicia's mind was empty and she started the car while she was still dazed. At this time, her sight inadvertently shifted. Apair of familiar figures suddenly came across her vision beside the window.

She saw some clear grey figures.

Was it them? If it was, then shouldn't the shadow behind the curtain be Frederick?

The signboard, "Fortune Seafood Restaurant", suddenly came into sight out of the corner of her eyes. It was a high-end restaurant and the night view there was spectacular. Sure enough, they came here for a romantic candlelit dinner!

Fortune Seafood Restaurant? In the past, Alicia particularly liked seafood. Besides that, it was currently the peak season to eat crabs in September!

From her angle, all she was able to see was the woman's smile. The woman was swaying forwards and backwards. It was clear to Alicia how they were having an enjoyable meal at the restaurant. Her heart was broken into pieces, but she chose not to leave. Her attention was deadlocked on them, she simply couldn't stop staring at them...
