Kianna was utterly agitated by Alicia's actions. She extended her hand and was about to hit Alicia. "You shameless mistress! You are exactly the one I'm after!" Alicia dodged Kianna's strikes while she deliberately shouted, "Who the hell are you? Where did this lunatic cfrom? You're the real shameless mistress, you crazy woman!" "Why are you chasing after me? You're after the wrong person! If you're certain that I'm the mistress then showyour marriage certificate! Tell your husband to cout and we'll see who's the real mistress?!" Alicia pretended that she had no idea what Kianna was saying, but her every word hit where it hurt most. People who don't know the inside story merely stretched their necks to see the fight, whereas those who knew the truth had different expressions on their faces.
"You, you..." Pointing at Alicia, Kianna was furious, but she remained silent for a long time. Her silence was because she and Sebastian were unofficially married. Not only did she not have a marriage certificate, but she was still a mistress even after Sebastian's first wife had died! Kianna was fuming. Recently, Sebastian and Alicia were extremely close to each other, so there were many rumors and gossips about them. Coupled with Kianna and Sebastien's recent quarrel, she was boiling with rage within. She glared and Alicia and wanted to beat her into a pulp.
Alicia was well- prepared for this moment; her every word and action were vigilant. She took advantage of the chaos and confusion and slowed down deliberately so that Kianna could grab her shirt. Because Alicia's dress was flimsy, it was a dress that was specifically tailored for the concert, her dress was immediately torn apart with a forceful yank, and she screamed again.
"Ah!" Alicia began to cry while she gathered her torn dress. In an instant, Sebastian grabbed Kianna's arm and shoved her aside, "Are you done making a scene?" Sebastian was already annoyed because of the failed rehearsal, and now people were looking at them like they were looking at a freak show he was infuriated.

Have you thrown away your conscience? Are you planning to leaveand our son behind now?" As soon as Kianna said those words, Alicia acted as if she only just understood why Kianna fought her, "Huh? You're Sebastian's wife? Sebastian, why didn't you tellthat your wife was this young? You both seem like..." They weren't from the sgeneration at all! Alicia pulled her punches and took a step forward.
"Mrs. Forbes, you've got it all wrong! I was invited by Sebastian to be his dance partner. We're merely good friends, we're not in a relationship at all! I knew it, Mr. Nick isn't even married yet, so how could I possibly be a mistress?" Alicia sobbed a little in a feigned grievance.
"Stop denying it, I clearly saw you seduce him!" Kianna shrieked while she stepped forward and extended her hand again. But at this moment, Sebastian stepped in and slapped Kianna. With a loud snap, Kianna nearly fell to the ground.
"Are you done? Can you stop causing a scene and leave?! Get out of here!" Sebastian yelled furiously, and his chest suddenly felt stuffy. Alicia walked up to him and quickly supported him.
"Sebastian, don't be mad, it's clearly a misunderstanding! Mrs. Forbes, don't overthink things! I'm really only here as his dance partner! I'm already married to someone else, see, I'm wearing a wedding ring!" Raising her hand, Alicia slowly revealed the huge diamond ring on her hand. Fredrick always gave her extravagant gifts even if it was small in size.
Kianna was hot under the collar by the sight of Alicia's action. Fortunately, Sebastian's manager and the others held her back at that moment, and they were finally separated.
While walking and supporting Sebastian, Alicia said, "Sebastian, why don't I help you to the lounge!" Alicia and a staff member assisted him to the lounge while Kianna still caused a scene. Because everyone was there for the rehearsal, everyone shared a big lounge.
Sebastian did not have a privateroomeither. The only private space he had was the dressing room where two doors separated both rooms. In actual fact, they were connected. His room was spacious and Sebastian had a personal dressing table and lounge chair while the others shared a dressing table.
As they entered the room, Alicia's gaze swept the room and noticed his suit was hung on a coat hanger by the sofa. His lozenges would usually be in the pocket of the suit while his other performance outfits were arranged at the long row of pulling carts outside.
After Alicia helped him to the sofa, she then stood up and poured him a glass of water.

She took the opportunity to take out two boxes of lozenges from her bag that she had prepared in case of an emergency. When she cback, she noticed that Sebastian had laid down on the sofa as he seemingly had a headache. She headed to the back of the sofa and pretended to be concerned.
"Sebastian, are you having a headache? Lethelp you apply sointment to ward it off!" "Thank you..." Sebastian nodded and Alicia immediately went to grab the ointment on the table. Every concert would usually have one as everyone would be exhausted and they would feel refreshed after applying it. Alicia applied the ointment for him. Seeing that there wasn't anyone else around, she quickly reached her clean hand into the suit pocket, fished out the lozenges, and placed hers into his suit's pocket while she put his lozenges into her pocket. Alicia got up and left the room once she was done applying the ointment for him. She took this chance to wash her hands while also placing his lozenges into the hidden compartment of her bag. Upon her return, Sebastian opened his eyes as he gave her an apologetic and tired look, "I'm sorry that I've caused you all these troubles! Does your face still sting?"
"Don't worry about it, it's a mere misunderstanding! I'm certain that Kianna's actions weren't intentional. I weren't i won't take it to heart and I definitely won't tell anyone about it! Besides, it's already in the past... As they were talking, several assistants and his manager abruptly rushed in. "Sebastian, we've settled everything and Miss Kianna has left as well! I've called Doctor Henwick here to take a look at you and help nurse your throat so that you're in your best shape!" "Sure!" Shortly, the doctor brought out a small flashlight and carefully examined Sebastian. Alicia's heart was continuously thumping while she looked at him from the side.
Would the doctor find what was wrong and fix his throat in time?!
Right as Alicia was on tenterhooks, the doctor turned off the flashlight and said, "It's nothing serious.
om Perhaps he might've overexerted his vocal chord, or he hasn't been eating properly. There are slight signs of tearing in his larynx, but it won't affect him too much and there are no signs of inflammation? He just needs srest and he'll be fine!" "Doctor Henwick, are there any nutritive medicines that are good for the throat?" "Honestly... it really depends! Everyone has different reactions to various medicines. I don't think it's a good idea to take medicine carelessly when you have no obvious symptoms. It'll be horrible if he gets an allergic reaction from it!"
After that, his manager reported Sebastian's diet to the doctor and also showed him the lozenges. "Doctor, could you take a look at this and tell us if there's anything wrong with it and his diet too?" After a cautious examination, Doctor Henwick took a piece out and sniffed it. He then dumped the lozenge into a cup of water and allowed it to dissolve. While it was dissolving, the doctor said, "It doesn't seem to be expired nor is there poisonous content. If it's from a trusted distributor, then it should be ordinary lozenges. As long as it's consumed before the expiry date, then it shouldn't be a harm to the throat!" After the doctor had left, Alicia was stunned, and she even drew a deep breath, "That was close!" However, the lozenges were meant to harm his vocal chord! How was it possible for the doctor to not figure it out? Ashburn X
