Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Frederick immediately hung up the phone. He was still laughing after doing so, "Haha!"

At the other end, a beeping sound indicating the end of a call could be heard. Nicholas rolled his eyes subconsciously and thought, "I was just making a joke. His reaction is really not cute at all!"

Chet was taken aback to see Fredrick like this when he came back with a cup of tea in his hands. He stared blankly at him for a few seconds before saying, "Frederick, put what down... Why are you this happy? I'll put more down next time!"

The next second, Frederick instantly burst into laughter, "Haha!"

Chet was discombobulated by Frederick's unrestrained laughter. He looked at himself cluelessly as he began questioning his actions that led to Frederick's amusement.

Shortly, Frederick waved his hand and said, "It's nothing to do with you! Haha, it's Nicholas, he was just nagging at me! He's rather lazy but quite diligent when it comes to making phone calls!"

Upon hearing this, Chet couldn't help but smile as well, "He still has the audacity to say that about others? Hasn't he noticed that he's been garrulous too lately?" He thought.

"Anyways, did you find anything about the Lautner guy?"

"Actually, I did. Malcom Lautner was previously in charge of certain areas in Casterwich City and has an outstanding track record. He has indeed been promoted to a higher status in recent years. He also keeps a low profile and nothing bad about him stands out! Honestly, the entire Lautner family isn't a major force. He only has one daughter, but she's disabled. Therefore, he spoils this so-called nephew, Samuel. However, his nephew doesn't know how to save his face. Over the years, Malcom has been cleaning up all his mess!"

"Is that so? What is he like?"

If he was someone who distinguishes public and private affairs, has a positive standard principle, and would not put them in a tough spot, then they would naturally take care of his reputation. Otherwise, he can't blame them for not showing mercy!

"He's impartial! However, if it concerns his nephew, he'll inevitably be prejudiced."

Frederick gently tapped his finger while he said, "Then well do as usual! Just in case, anything we can use against him?"

"It's actually not that difficult! If you play with fire, you'll eventually get burned. Besides, they're initiating a crackdown now. It would be simple to find some slip-ups in his private affairs. All we have to do is report anonymously and we'll be able to minimize half of the problems for society!"

If anything, not only would they not get their hands dirty, they might even get him to owe them a favor!

"Yeah, that's our best option! Make a clean job of it; don't leave any trails behind! By the way, don't forget about Sebastian's concert this Saturday night. Free up some time. Go have some fun!"

Frederick calculated how he should go to the concert and cheer Alicia on or at least make her happy. "Also, make some noise. Tell them all four of the Great Masters of Casterwich City will attend the concert." He said to Chet.

Meanwhile, Alicia cooperated with Sebastian to have a full dress rehearsal for the last time before the concert.

The entire rehearsal ran smoothly; there were barely any mistakes. On the other hand, Sebastian either forgot his lyrics or went out of tune. He even stopped midway sometimes. The two-hour concert rehearsal was extended to three hours and more.

By the end of the rehearsal, dejection appeared on everyone's faces!

The rehearsal was a complete failure!

As soon as Alicia walked down, she overheard Sebastian's manager and the director talking to Sebastian. They were obviously dissatisfied. "What's the matter with you? Did you not rest well last night? How could you possibly forget the lyrics during the rehearsal?"

"Sebastian, were you smoking or drinking again? Or was it something you ate? Why does it sound like you're having a sore throat? Something doesn't feel right!"

"The concert's about to officially commence! How should we explain to the audience seeing all these problems arise? The tickets were all sold out, we even added more seats!"

"Are you overstressed? Do you need two days off?"

Looking at them, Alicia gradually walked over with a bottle of pear-flavored drink in her hands.

"Sebastian, you seem a little nervous to me! Drink this, it'll soothe your throat! Director Andrews, I don't think Sebastian is in his peak condition today and it's affecting him a little too. Why don't you schedule another rehearsal?"

Sebastian hesitantly accepted the drink. He was about to take a sip of it when his agent snatched it away.

"Stop drinking this! You're already

having a sore throat and yet you're drinking these sweet drinks. Are you trying to make it worse? Please get it under control, mind what you eat and drink, all right? I'll get a doctor in a

over to examine your condott

while. Do you know how

to get a huge sponsore ar@I tried

for you? If

the concert is a bust, then the subsequent album can't be released. So if this doesn't go well, well have to pay our sponsor double the amount!" Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

"What are you trying to imply? Are you suspecting that something is wrong with my drink?" At that moment, Alicia was upset. She immediately snatched the drink, opened it, and swallowed it in a single gulp.

"No, no, Miss Swift. You've got it all wrong. That's not what I meant..."

"Hmph!"

Alicia flung her arms before she turned around and strode away. Right then, her heart was thumping wildly too. "It seems that Sebastian's manager is quite smart and cautious!" She thought.

"Oh, Misty! Don't be mad! He wasn't trying to..."

Sebastian chased after Alicia. When

vel.n

they got to a corner, he tried to coax her. Alicia was only improvising earlier, so as soon as she was out of his manager's sight, she slowly mellowed out. As Sebastian explained, he saw his manager making a call from the corner of his eyes. Alicia grew anxious when she

suspected he was calling a doctor.

If anyone found out Sebastian's lozenges were contaminated, then Alicia would definitely be the first suspect! After all, she was the only newcomer who was close to Sebastian!

If her scheme came to light at a moment like this, then her plans would be completely in vain!

Just as she was in deep waters, Alicia inadvertently gazed up and saw Kianna rushing in at the entrance. With a smile, Alicia deliberately leaned closer to Sebastian.

"Am I such a petty person? I don't mind! I care about your well-being, that's why I feel aggrieved! I know because you have high expectations for yourself, and you've put yourself under immense pressure, that's why you couldn't perform well. You'll be fine as long as you get some rest!"

Alicia gazed down on Sebastian's clothes and said,

"Sebastian, your clothes are a mess, let me tidy them up for you! Does your throat still feel uncomfortable? You're a public figure, so you have to make sure that you look good at all times..."

Alicia pretended to be ambiguous, she deliberately acted as if she was very familiar with him. As expected, a shrew figure rushed over in a blink of an

eye.

"You b*tch! What on Earth do you think you're doing?"

"You shameless vixen!"

A woman shoved Alicia aside and slapped her across the face. Because she had foreseen it, she took a step back, and the force of the woman's slap was reduced. Shortly, she pretended to be surprised and quickly hid behind Sebastian.

"Ouch! Who the hell are you? Why did you slap me?! Sebastian... Anyone, help!"

Alicia cried out in grievance and she successfully attracted everyone's attention. In an instant, the young woman's face became scarlet from anger...
