Chapter 858
Holding his hand tightly, Alicia smiled through her tears.
Soon, Mrs. Andrews came back with some groceries and Mrs. Blanchard asked Aunt McGowan to help with cooking. That day, they finally had their reunion dinner as a family. It was a pleasant experience at the dining table. Frederick drank some red wine with Mr. Blanchard, while Alicia and her mother chatted the whole night. Often they were so excited they almost choked with laughter.
After dinner, her mom dragged her to her room. Hugging a plate full of snacks in her arms, and eating happily, Alicia's eyes became red when she saw her mom making the bed. After it was made, she immediately sat on it and said in a sweet tone,
"It's so soft, mom. Let me sleep together with you tonight. Let's have a good talk!"
Rolling her eyes at Alicia, Mrs. Blanchard folded down a corner of the quilt. She then sat down beside her, and said, "Don't talk nonsense!" Rubbing her head, and seeing her energetic expression, Mrs. Blanchard smiled when she same her daughter's slightly plump, healthy face.
"Ally, it's not easy to find a man like Frederick. It's your blessing to have found him! No matter what, you must treat him wholeheartedly. Women can act like a spoiled child, yet never be capricious, do you understand?"
Looking at her face, Mrs. Blanchard knew that she was living a happy life. Mrs. Blanchard could not help her internal lament. She could've never imagined what her family had gone through, the highs and lows. At that moment, everything had finally come together.
"Yes, Mom! I remember your words of wisdom. Your daughter is not an idiot. I will remember everything! I won't forget, trust me! And don't worry, Frederick loves me very much!"
Alicia held her mom's arm and squinted. At that moment, her mood was indescribable.
"You are always like this every time when I'm teaching you! You can't just say it, you need to show it with actions! You've been married for so long, you should have a child or two by now! This is good for your relationship! Wasn't your body extremely healthy when you had your body checkup last time? Is it you who doesn't want a baby or him..."
He doesn't have a problem, right?
Alicia understood her mom's unspoken question. But she didn't want to hurt her man's pride. Some things should be kept between husband and wife and not shared with one's mother. Alicia chuckled to diffuse the situation.
"Mom, you are thinking too much! We will definitely work hard! We've just been too busy with work. We just haven't found the right time! We will work hard on it, don't worry! It will be soon!"
"Good, good! Just stay here for a few more days. You can take the opportunity to work harder!"
While Mrs. Blanchard was earnestly teaching her daughter various secret techniques, Frederick and Mr. Blanchard were quiet in the living room. Although it was not the first time they've met, Frederick still felt an inexplicable nervousness.
"Dad, have some tea!"
Taking a sip, Mr. Blanchard smiled with satisfaction.
"Frederick, it's really a blessing for Ally to meet someone like you! From now on, Ally is officially yours. No matter how strong a woman is, she still needs a reliable man to depend on. I don't ask for enormous fortune or wealth, only for both of you to get along well. Although Ally's temper has improved a lot over the past two years, she could still be headstrong and stubborn. No matter what happens in the future, I hope you can be more forgiving to her! Look at me, my life is full of ups and downs, I have seen much in life. Even to this day, I can still proudly say that I already have the most precious treasure in my life!"
Though he glanced at his handicapped leg, the joy on Mr. Blanchard's face was clearly from the heart!
He's right! How lucky would it be to have someone by your side... for rich or for poor, in sickness and in health.
Seeing her family overcome obstacles together, the relationship Alicia had with her mom, the sharing of ups and downs by her parents, even the close relationship between her siblings... It was all fascinating to him. Frederick believed that a woman from such a family was one of a kind.
"Dad, you're too polite. It's my
fortune to meet a girl like Ally! Don't worry! No matter what happens in
the future, will definitely treat her well! If + don't treat her well, even if you let me go, Nicholas would never
forgive me! I dare not, and
absolutely won't treat her badly!"
"Alright, that's good! Frederick, don't
blame me for being verbose. Once you become a parent, you'll be able to understand how we're feeling right now. Regardless of how excellent the man whom my
myvel.r
daughter is marrying, as long as we are alive, she'll always remain in our heart..."
That night, the four of them chatted until 10 at night, before they reluctantly returned to their rooms.
Alicia was so excited that she closed the door, held Frederick's head, and gave him a big kiss, "Hubby, I love you so much!"
"Hubby, thank you."
Frederick didn't dare to move as she wiggled around. He snickered and said, "Are you treating me like a delicious lollipop?"
His face was full of her saliva!
Gently pinching her lower jaw, Frederick lowered his head and kissed her on her red lips, "I don't want you to thank me, I just wanted you to never forget me!"
Never forget him!
Remembering, Frederick hugged her tightly again!
"Of course! I only remember how bad you were. This way, my hubby could only treat me better!"
Alicia hooked her wrist around his neck and squinted with a smile. They looked at each other as she stood on tiptoe and took the initiative to kiss him back.
"Hubby, do you know that you have brought home another two more baby seekers? There are now..."
Alicia lowered her head and carefully counted with her fingers. She then said jokingly, "If Aunt Clements is counted as a half, there are already six and a half of them."
"Eh?" How were there so many?
Looking at his confused eyes, Alicia rolled her eyes at him, "Granny, dad, Uncle Gary, Aunt Amanda, and now my mom and dad!"
Could someone let her catch her breath?
Frederick almost laughed out loud, "Shouldn't Uncle Gary and Aunt Amanda pester Trevor instead?"
Why were they even considered? The pressure was too much!
"It's because you're the eldest son and grandson of the Clements family. Did you know, grandma would always look at me every time she mentioned
a baby! It's easy for Victoria to be excused with reasons such as the matter of etiquette and seniority!"Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
How depressing!
Drawing on his chest with her tiny hand, Alicia's charming eyes were seductive, revealing a hint of flirtation, "Hubby, let's keep working hard!"
They have been too lax lately.
Although they said that they would work hard, they hadn't been putting too much effort into it. Now, after thinking about it carefully, Alicia suddenly realized that they hadn't been together for a long time. They were always busy with work, not to mention the few quarrels they had. Thinking carefully, it must have been almost two or three months already!
