Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)



Chet rolled his eyes and clapped his hands.

"What the hell! Frederick, it's already half a bottle. For two maladroit men, this is amazing efficiency! They're all authentically hand-peeled, okay?"

Besides, he hadn't eaten a single one of them even after peeling for half a day, yet Frederick still thought this too few?

"Frederick, my nails are cracked. Will there any overtime subsidies?" Chet thought of something, and his eyes lit up as he pitifully stretched out his hand.

"I've just recently joined a racing club called Super Fly. It looks good and the annual fee is not expensive. It's only two hundred thousand dollars! Unfortunately, I don't have the capital to maintain a sports car. Riding a motorcycle on the race track is very advanced though, and very exciting!" Two hundred thousand dollars in exchange for peeling those melon seeds that he hated. He guessed that was acceptable.

Frederick put away the rubbish and sealed the plastic food container.

"Yes, it's not expensive. You'll get it after working overtime for two days. It's your turn next week then! Just in time too because Ally is in a bad mood. So, I can take her to the zoo! You may peel the melon seeds for me for a few hours more!"

"What? Frederick, are you serious?"

"Can we call the subsidy off? My butt will be numb then!" He thought to himself.

Patting his head, Chet suddenly regretted it and was thinking hard about how he could remove himself from this situation. Just as he withdrew his hand, he found out that someone had already cleaned his hands, took his suit, and picked up the bottle of melon seeds on the table.

"I'll get going! Call me if anything comes up!"

After waving his hand, Frederick strode out of the door.

Shaking his head, Chet could only start cleaning up the rubbish in front of him. He then followed him out the door.

"Frederick..."

As soon as he walked out of Soaver International, a pale-looking figure suddenly appeared. As their eyes met, Frederick's face became dark. Danica. Why was it her again?

At that moment, Chet walked out with the keys of the car spinning on his finger. At the sight of the scene, he immediately rushed forward and helped him out of the predicament, "Frederick, President Lawson is still waiting for you!"

"Go and get the car!"

Initially, he planned to drive home by himself. Knowing that Chet was there to help him, minds in sync, Frederick handed the key to his car to him. With someone else around, it was always easier to get away.

Danica had waited for him at the North Hill Hotel for seven days straight. Although it was as expected, and she had mentally prepared for it, at that moment, it was still a big blow for her for him to not have shown up. Therefore, her face darkened; she was obviously dispirited.

"Seven days, yet you didn't even come once! I knew I shouldn't have come!"

His intentions were clear as day, but she...

Closing her eyes and clenching her fists, Danica faintly said, "But this might be the last thing I could do for myself. The final push! I don't want to have any regrets!"Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Danica took the courage to take a step forward, suddenly grabbing his hand.

"If my days are numbered, will you spend my last moments with me? I have liver cancer. When I found out, it was already too late for chemo or any treatment," she explained..

Just as he was about to swat her hand away, Frederick was taken aback by her words. "What?"

Although Frederick was disappointed in her and felt ashamed of her way of doing things, he had not expected to hear this from her. Unconsciously, he fixed his doubtful eyes on her.

Danica forced a laugh.

"The doctor said I only have half a year at most to live! In the face of death, people tend to speak from their hearts. I know I have done many things that hurt you; perhaps, this is God's punishment! It made me lose the most precious things in my life and had my sincere heart trampled!" She said. She was a fool; her life was a tragedy - a big, fat joke!

She hated it! She couldn't shake off this feeling of unhappiness and dissatisfaction.

She wanted to know who her biological mother was. She hated her parents who made her this way. She hated her inability to change her birth and fate. She regretted her ridiculous past. She hated that she had never been able to live a good life for herself!

She wanted to start all over again. She wanted to get back everything she lost!

However, it was all written in the stars. She had countless regrets, but in the end, God refused to give her time! Even her last shred of hope was cruelly destroyed by the Heavens.

"I know that I don't have the right to ask you for anything! Frederick, I only have half a year to live, to see this beautiful world and everything related to me! I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, I can go to the hospital with you! I know that all of this is what I deserve. My life is a tragedy! But I swear, I just want to have some happiness of my own during the last moments of my life. At least, when I close my eyes, I'd know that I did not come to this world for nothing! Frederick, my father's in a coma while my mother's identity and whereabouts are unknown. My adoptive mother..." She let out a self-mocking chuckle, "She had been using me all this while! You are the only thing that's pure and beautiful in my life! Even if it was all in the past!"

Danica clenched her fists, feeling very emotional.

"I only want the last moments of my life to be peaceful and beautiful! It doesn't matter whether you care about what we had or not, or that you pity me; no matter if it's real or fake, can you make my dream come true and be with me for my last few months? Frederick, I truly love you Even if did something wrong back them and I selfishly gave up our relationship for the sake of my family, you can't deny that we were happy, right? Do you still remember when you were punished back when we were together, that no matter what you did wrong, I would stay by your side? You also promised me that no matter my mistake, you would stay with me, and would never abandon me for the rest of your life! You once said that whatever promise you made, you would never forget it, even if I am no longer yours..."

As she poured her heart out, Danica's tears started streaming down on her face.

"But you broke your promise! You

said that even if we don't love each other anymore, I will always be one of the most important people in your life. We made our promise as a precaution, but we never thought that it would actually happen. waited for you for seven days, but you didn't show up! I lost everything! In my last few months, I just want to relive the only joy I had with you! Please, just give me six months, okay?"

At that point in her life, she truly did not want anything else, or have any other extravagant desires other than him.

"I know that you don't love me anymore, but you still have a long life ahead of you; you still have countless years with her, whereas I only have this short window of time. Even then, I'd still have to struggle with my illness. Just think of it as you pitying me. With death approaching, just give me one last bit of warmth and happiness. Is that okay?"
