"By the way, she only made one phone call to Jeremy this month, and it was after he went on a business trip. The only tthey met was the tyou saw them a few days ago. And, based on the surveillance footage, they met at the entrance..." Chet replied with a hint of his own judgment. There were too many coincidences for it to be true! Coincidentally, Frederick also had the sidea. Especially today, when they caught her red-handed with hard evidence, all the members of the Clements family were there! When he thought of the matter in the west city that everyone had mentioned to him more than once, he felt that this matter was not that simple. It seemed that every step from the beginning was like a huge trap! He took back the bidding proposal for the west city. He really wanted to see how this matter will turn out in the end. Most importantly, he felt it was not over yet, and he wanted to know who was pulling the strings in the shadows! Therefore, he just strongly expressed that he would not give up on Alicia on the surface, but did not expose his real thoughts from the bottom of his heart.
Moreover, he did feel that Alicia was trying to tell him something before, but he didn't know what made her so frightened that she daren't speak of it to him! He had sent people to check the house, but there was no surveillance or anything like that. In the end, he could only conclude that she was afraid because of her nature as a woman and the fact that she was worried about her father, so she didn't dare to tell him! But after watching how things unfolded in these few days, he suddenly began to wonder whether all of it was actually aimed to break his and Alicia's relationship.
But in his heart, Frederick had a hard taccepting it. The incident had already involved a human's life, and it even involved extortion, blackmail, and theft! To break their relationship, they were willing to go to such extend to make such a scene. It was obvious that they were overdoing it for such a minor purpose. Moreover, if he had made it clear that he would give up the land for Alicia just now, wouldn't all their work be in vain? Tapping his finger lightly, Frederick felt that there were aspects where it didn't make sense. "So, there's a possibility that Jeremy was just a coincidence in this matter, or maybe a disguise or a clown, or..." He said. "Being taken advantage of!" Chet blurt out the truth, both of them nodded at the stas they both thought, "Yes, this stupid mastermind is different from the previous one who was meticulous!" "Arrange for bodyguards to be stationed at Clearview Hospital. Tell them to lay low and don't intervene unless necessary! As for Carson, let him continue with his work. I want to know what the poison is and its source! It's not over yet! Whoever started this game, I will have him finish it! The one who made the deal with Alicia today, ask Willy to look for him with a few of our people! You know what to do!" "Understood! If all fails, we'll just tie up Jeremy!" Frederick smirked and raised his hand to look at his watch. Then he said, "I have to go hnow. Let's keep this ggoing!" Frederick stood up, and Chet followed as he asked, "Hey, Frederick, about the bid from west city..." The bidding was going to start in a few days. Were they still going to participate? Since the bidding proposal was stolen, they were not sure whether the content inside had leaked or not! It was not too late for them to change to their backup plan now, but it was a little hasty, which obviously would make people upset! "Leave it! You don't have to change anything! Just be prepared to give up on this land. I will take what I can get and let fate decide for me! There might be sclues in the bidding fair, keep an eye on the opponent!" "Understood!" After that, Frederick took the car keys and went out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlong the way, both of them were constantly rethinking the whole matter and process.
When Alicia got home, she was still in a trance, and she couldn't understand.
Now that the deal had been made, and she was caught on the spot, plus her father had fully recovered, clearly indicated that the process where she had called Waverly, met her, and asked for her help to make a virus prograinside the data was not monitored or known by others. Otherwise, the deal would not have been a smooth success.
She wondered whether the other party had sent someone to spy on her or not.
The night when she wanted to confess to Frederick, he had been transferred away by someone and her father had fainted all of the sudden.
Usually, there aren't any outsiders at home, and they had a strict security system, so it shouldn't be possible for their house to be implanted with monitoring equipment! The monitoring device would most probably be on herself! But she hadn't worn any new accessories recently! She recalled the whole process in her head and thought about it deeply again. Alicia suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. "What are the things that I always carry with me? Could it be..." She thought to herself. Mobile phone? Could it be that her cell phone was reprogrammed into a piece of equipment for spying purposes? That's why they were able to know who she had called and what she had said? As for the phone call with Waverly, because it was very important, she was afraid that there was someone on her end. In addition, she hadn't thought thoroughly at that time, so she didn't dare to speak in detail on the phone. Alicia remembered that she had accidentally overheard call and understood that she seemed to know a lot about computers. Through the phone, Alicia only said that she wanted to ask her for a favor so she asked her out for dinner. At that time, she just wanted to ask if her plan was impossible and whether it was difficult to do, but she never thought she could actually do it!
She left in a hurry that day and she had left her phone charging on the table, so she had forgotten to take it with her she was afraid of delaying the matter so as soon as they were done discussing; she left before finishing her meal.
Later, the two agreed to keep in touch and communicate the details through an online platform. She was still afraid that they could be spied on, but Waverly reassured her. For e the first time, she was able to see what she could do. They chatted on the messaging software of randomly selected shopping website. As they talked, their chat records were deleted automatically. She couldn't figure out how she did it. Besides the two of them, everything else on the screen seemed to be locked and was in gray. Now that she thought about it, Alicia felt it was alarmingly dangerous! Due to the nature of her work, she had developed a habit of using the computer instead of her phone whenever possible. Therefore, she had always forgotten about her phone all the time.

What happened on that day had a great impact on both of them. Therefore, when he entered the door, he didn Nspeak first. His eyes met hers. He didn't see any regret or guilt on her face. This was what surprised Frederick the most! Even if it didn't work out and he caught her red-handed, she should at least feel guilty, right? Just when he was about to speak, Alicia, who stood opposite of him, gestured a "shh" at him and then shouted.
"Frederick, I'm so disappointed in you! You said you would forgiveno matter what I did! But you didn't trusttoday. You brought so many people to confront me. I've lost my face..." At the stime, Alicia went to find a pen and paper and wrote a few words, "Spying. Might be my phone! I did not betray you! I'll explain later! Quarrel withnow!" She wrote and gestured, even gave Frederick meaningful looks on and off. Frederick understood her immediately. He smiled, but his tone was harsh.
"Why don't you reflect on yourself? Even till now, you still want to bite back on me?" At the stime, he also replied with a few words, "Cell phone, give it to me! Lavender Garden." Frederick threw a vase, took her cell phone, and turned off the phone directly. Then he gave a sign, and the two went out one after the other.
