Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

After leaving the hospital, with some time to spare, Alicia went to Mural Street, which was well-known for its handicrafts. She wanted to look for a craft workshop that provided customized embroidery services on silk, to customize a special tie with the pattern that she designed

After looking around for a while, she finally settled with a sizable textile production company. The discussion tock a long time and Alicia even had to agree to the company selling products with the pattern she designed after minor alterations to finally receive the opportunity to customize her tie. The price wasn't cheap either but the thought of being able to do something for Frederick made Alicia beam with joy.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Cnce the design sketch was shown on the laptop, Alicia began to make adjustments and modifications with the designer until she was completely

satisfied with the color scheme. The designer adored the pattern she designed and wanted to use it in his own designs. With the glee of gaining a

small advantage, she chose another color scheme from the choices available and used it on her own design, making the tie a set of two instead of only one. Thinking that the ties can be used interchangeably, she was utterly satisfied with the result

"I'l leave it to you, Julian! This is my phone number. Please use the best silk you have for my tie and don't forget the label!”

"Don't worry, Miss Blanchard! I hope we'll have good a cooperation!”

While shaking hands, the two of them exchanged business cards. "Your design is very unique.”

Not many people can communicate with him so smoothly.

Being neither humble nor arrogant, Alicia displayed a faint smile. "I studied design for a few years before, therefore I know some basics!”

"No wonder, I thought that you seemed professional. You were fantastic with the fabrics, color- matching, and proportions of the pattern. I was wondering if you would be interested in being my assistant? Our design studio is currently hiring as well!"

"Itis my honor to receive your appreciation. However, I have already dropped designing for a long time and I enjoy my current job very much. If I do have the opportunity, I will definitely consider it first!"

Even though Alicia declined, the two still had a merry conversation. They signed the agreement and discussed some details before Alicia left.

As she walked out, she stared at the distant sky that she felt was infinitely ethereal and beautiful. Her designing skills were approved by a professional and it made her feel like her many years of effort did not go to waste.

Taking lively steps, Alicia went home.

When she arrived at the door, seeing the flowerpot with the jasmine plant that used to be at the corner of the courtyard being replaced by some emerald green plants made her mood even better. Flinging the car keys, she walked, hummed and danced for a few rounds before entering the house...

In the blink of an eye, the day for Alicia to go back to work has arrived. As soon as she stepped into the office, Alicia saw blue enchantresses on her desk again. They appeared every day as if they were a daily alarm ringtone, which was really annoying

Swinging her arm, Alicia took it and walked out the door.

The trash cans in the room were very small. Every time she wanted to throw them away, she had to go downstairs. Miriam, who already saw this coming, stopped her at the door.

"Alicia, don't waste it! I wouldn't mind keeping it!"

Ever since Alicia overheard her colleagues bad- mouthing her in the women's toilet, saying that she was showing off and giving away the flowers that she received to let everyone know that she was popular, she stopped talking about her flowers. She didn't even bother to ask where they came from anymore. If she was in a good mood, she would put it aside to decorate her office. If she was in a bad mood, she would just throw it away.

"These flowers look so expensive, they would be great to beautify the pantry! My desk is still empty as welll” As Miriam spoke, she automatically clung to Alicia, giggling. "Alicia, you really don't know who gave it to you?" This was too wasteful! It would've been better if he just gave her cash!

With the thought in her heart, Miriam wanted to kick the man a few times. She had never seen such a dumb man! Treating the lady to a meal or something fun would've been better than wasting money like this!

Glancing at Miriam, Alicia tured around and walked back. "As long as it doesn't appear in my sight, you can do anything you want with itl Next time, take it away if you like it, don't leave it on my desk!"

How troublesome! When would Jeremy plan to stop sending them? Should she just gather the flowers and throw them in the trash can in front of his company?

With a flash of inspiration, Alicia realized that this was a great idea! If not, she could just send him a photo of the flowers in the trash can as well. Why didn't she think of that earlier?

All of a sudden, Alicia felt much more comfortable. All she wanted at that moment was for him to stay away from her forever!

Upon returning to her seat and receiving a message from the director, Alicia finally started her day of intense and fulfilling work. These annoying matters were then temporarily forgotten.

In the office of the CEQ of Soaver Internationaly Frederick returned from a meeting and was listening to Chet's wiark report. Everything was alright-gt home and hewas — (° extrasrdinarily energetic. As he sat dawn, he flipped one of the-record bGoks open, Content belgrgs to

"Since we are currently uncertain about the situation, these projects can be put aside first, there is no need to rush into investing! Nevertheless, the investment in the e-commerce logistics and technology field can be increased!”

Chet took a seat after making two cups of tea. "Why? Frederick, are you not optimistic about investing in real estate?”

They had always been investing in real estate and they just attained the chance to invest in the Global Garden project. Why were they starting to be careful?

"It's not that I'm not optimistic but the prices of the plots of land have been raised too much higher than they're supposed tol Even if it's a successfu bid, there is no profit. The completiaq of the project will take at least twdé to three years. Based on the current economic and salary” growth, do you think there isa need fortnvestment? Now that we're urtlear about the trends, it will be even worse if they decide to take control over the funds. Money has to be spent well to create more money. There is no point in keeping them as they will all be used up someday! Similarly, people who rely on the same wages every day to pay fo their expenses and debts rarely become rich! This is because they do

not use their money to earn more money and they will be pressured to earn more to survive! This is why I say that we should control our investments more for these two years!"

Taking a sip of tea, he continued speaking

"For the past two years, e- commerce has prospered. E-commerce has been and is still being used widely for shopping, lifestyle, and even spiritua entertainment. It is becoming a huge trend now, that's why we can increase the {vestments in this field! Trevoralready has his eyes on. the connection between online =
