Holding the bag, Alicia paused. She didn't know what was wrong with him, but when she heard his words, she immediately understood.
Blushing in embarrassment, she said, "Stop exaggerating." If he felt that she could attract men's attention just by eating, then she should go on a hunger strike! After picking out a pack of jelly, Alicia's eyes shone with excitement. "Grape flavored, that's my favorite!" She tore the wrapper open and started slurping on the jelly. With her free hand, she rummaged through the bag for another grape-flavored jelly.
Almost instantly, Frederick narrowed his eyes and hissed, "And no jellies as well!" "Huh?" Surprised, Alicia raised her head and said, "What?" Unable to comprehend the matter, she was flustered.
Frederick's gaze fell on her luscious red lips as he said in a low voice, "You are not allowed to eat in front of any other man!" Was it that her eating mannerisms would stimulate a man's desire?! In that instant, Frederick understood. It was actually because of Alicia's lips. They were red and moist, full of temptation. When they moved, it was an incomprehensible seduction. It could make any man feel flustered, somehow! Being continuously stared at, Alicia did not know how to respond all of a sudden.

Couldn't he just not think about that lewd stuff? Couldn't they just get along with each other happily? She initially wanted to eat more, but now, she was hesitant.
With her long eyelashes fluttering, and her rosy red cheeks, it made her look shy and charming. His rough fingers gently touched her soft ears, and quickly kissed her on her lips.
"It's the face you make when you are eating. It's too charming!" She was really so charming! It was a pity that she was still very conservative regarding sex, and he did not have any fetishes. However, just fantasizing about her like that was extremely arousing! Noticing that she was blushing even more, Frederick pinched her cheeks and said, "Why are you so shy? You'll make others go crazy for you!" She looked absolutely gorgeous when she was blushing! Her face was red and soft like a new born baby. She looked truly adorable and beautiful beyond compare.
"Honey..." Alicia punched him. She wished the ground would open up and swallow her whole. "What is wrong with him today?" she wondered. Not only did he give her weird looks, but he was even saying weird stuff! Frederick handed her a jelly and stopped teasing her. "Eat up!" Frederick could not help but smile as he held and watched her while she ate her snacks with a content smile on her face.
Women really shared lots of similarities with kids after all! Alicia picked out her favorite snacks to satisfy her hunger. She stuffed two more small packs into her pocket and suddenly reminisced being in her brother's arms when she was a child. When their parents hid the snacks, her brother would buy them for her or steal them for her. She had often sat on her brother's lap and ate them. Whenever she couldn't tear the snacks open, she would ask him for help. When she saw a snack she liked, she would stuff a few extra packs into her pocket.
She felt poignant as she reminisced about the love of being protected by a family member. The thought of her brother and his severed finger suddenly flashed through her mind.
"I wonder what has becof him? Where is he? Is he happy where he is?" She lowered her eyes and ate the last jelly she had and stopped reaching for more.
Frederick toyed with Alicia's hands as he kissed her on her cheek. When he held her in his arms, it was as if he had possessed the whole world. Just like that, he was satisfied.
Seeing that it was about tto start work, Alicia tidied up her clothes and said, "It's tto go to work, I have to go!" When she thought of something, she hooked her arms around Frederick's neck and said, "Can you just let go of what happened in the morning? Your wife would be labeled as a sl*t and a bringer of bad luck! Please have smercy!" "Mercy?" He questioned as he pinched her nose. "That's one thing! It's already a great mercy forthat I didn't pursue them for lusting after my wife!" During work hours, if caught lazing around, a deduction of three days' wage was considered a light punishment! Besides, how could he change his words in just a day? "So is this the end of the matter?" Hopefully, he wouldn't get even with them later on behind her back! If someone lost their job because of her, it would be too much. After all, all the people who were chatting with her on this day were quite friendly! Frederick's face darkened, and he paused for a moment. "Is she worried about that man?" His thoughts drifted to the last man who had signaled to her and gestured to her in front of him! Obviously, she really cared about him! "Dear?" "Who are you worried about? The last guy who flirted with you? What is his name?" Frederick glared at her and tightened his lips. Alicia looked at him and the sudden change in his reaction shocked her. She didn't just make things worse for Joel, did she? "Do you wantto find out who it is myself?" Looking down pitifully, Alicia whimpered, "It's Joel Yves, from the sales department! We met in the printing room when we were waiting in line..." "Joel Yves?!" His surnwas Yves? As Frederick murmured this name, the words "Mr. Yves" suddenly popped up in Frederick's mind. Was he the man who kept sending her messages, asking her out for lunch? That guy was really so caring of her! "That guy should know his place, so how dare he care about Alicia at all? Is he afraid I would do anything to her?" Frederick thought menacingly.
But he kept silent. Alicia was a little scared. Her lips twitched a little, but she was not sure whether she should say anything. A trace of anxiety appeared in her gaze. "What? Are you afraid that I'll bully him?" Twisting her fingers, Alicia slowly nodded. Her brain cells started spinning rapidly to think of an idea.

"I've been avoiding him and have m been firm on being disinterested in him. I didn't tell him my identity either. When meet him in the restaurant, he was very good to me. I was already feeling a little guilty. If I was affected by my work again, I would certainly blmyself for the rest of my life!" What she actually meant was that if Joel was fired because of her, she would never be able to live with the guilt.
However, Alicia did not dare to say it out loud. She merely put on a pitiful outlook.
Given Frederick's intelligence, how could he not understand? Although henever he personally didn't agree, e influenced the private affairs of others. Coupled with Alicia's words, he naturally gave in. He raised his hand and poked Alicia's forehead. "Alright, stop putting on such a pitiful look! As for this matter, let's see your performance!" Given this reprieve, Alicia suddenly seemed to have cback to life and ran into Frederick's arms. She then gave him a quick kiss on his lips.
"I'll behave myself and be good!" Hugging her, Frederick was flabberfasted! This woman really knew her way around words in coaxing people, how sly! However, all of this did not stop him from feeling a deep sense of pleasure! "Chearly tonight! I want to eat ravioli!" Above all that, he wanted to have a fun night in bed with her. "Alright! I'll go to the supermarket after work!" Looking at the time, Alicia struggled to stand up and said, "Honey, it's 1:30 p.m.! It's tto go to work. I'm leaving! Don't forget to hide my snacks!" As she ran to the door, she turned her head back and blew him a kiss.
At this moment, as long as he didn't look into what her friends did, did she would do anything. More than that, this very noon, she had experienced a strong sense of happiness and joy- X
