Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Hearing Frederick threaten Hallie, Mr. Clements was dissatisfied, and his tone becstern. "Frederick!" How could he talk to his sister like that because of swoman? In that instant, Hallie was was so frightened that she did not dare to speak again. Frederick didn't even bother to look at his father. His expression beceven frostier.

"You'd better keep guard over your precious daughter. I'm a man of my words! From now on, we won't be coming here anymore. If any of you dare to stick your noses into my business or lay a hand on my woman, don't say I didn't warn you!" Frederick bent over to pick Alicia up and strode away.

Trevor had been waiting outside the door all this while. When he saw the two of them coming out, he went up to them. When he saw how bedraggled Alicia was and her injured legs, he was shocked. "How did things turn out like this?" He couldn't imagine that the Clements family could've done this to her in just less than 30 minutes! Putting Alicia down, Frederick kept a tight hold on her. His face was taut. "Geta copy of all the surveillance footage from tonight. I'm going to get her to the hospital first. I'll catch up with you later." He wanted to know everything that had happened at the banquet! As Frederick and Trevor spoke, Alicia leaned against Frederick. Her hands clasped his shirt tightly, and she was still half sobbing.

Frederick quickly instructed Trevor on what to do, then helped Alicia towards his car, which was parked nearby. Frederick opened the car door and saw the coat he had brought for her on the passenger seat. He bent down and took it out. "Slowly now, don't knock your head!" Just as she was about to bend down, Alicia inadvertently lifted her head. There seemed to be a flash of light from the slow-moving car coming from the opposite side. When she saw that the car was driving slowly and the window was open, she inexplicably took a second glance. Seeing the car approach them, something hit her, and she quickly shoved Frederick away.

Be careful!" With a loud bang, Frederick stumbled and almost fell to the ground. When he cback to his senses, he just saw something dark shoot past, and a white figure slowly collapsed to the ground, like a flower wilting.

"Ally!" Frederick quickly caught her in his arms. He felt something wet and sticky over his hands, and all he could see was blood. Alicia's lips trembled, and she couldn't speak. She seemed to want to lift her hand up, but her eyes slowly closed before she could do so.

"Ally, wake up! Don't sleep, don't sleep!" Frederick immediately pressed his hands on her bleeding wound. Everything happened so suddenly that Trevor was stunned. He only reacted a few seconds later. He quickly drove the car over. "Frederick, hurry up!" At this time, the security guards quickly cover when they heard the commotion. Trevor stepped the pedal to the metal and Frederick quickly made sphone calls.

In the hospital, Carson had already picked up Frederick's call. They were already waiting for them at the entrance. Once they had arrived, they immediately sent Alicia to the operation theatre without any delay. Outside the operation theatre, Frederick felt like his soul had left his body. His hands were suspended in mid-air, and he just kept staring at the blood all over his hands. On the other hand, Trevor was busy running around doing whatever that needed to be done.

Soon after, members of the Clements family heard the news. Everyone rushed over and Chet also cquickly. The operation theatre's lights were still lit. Mr. Clements was shocked. "What happened? Were you injured?" When he saw Frederick covered in blood, he naturally cared about him first. However, Frederick didn't seem to hear him and just stared at the door of the operation theatre. Trevor quickly explained, "I can't tell you about the specifics. The only thing I know is that we heard a gunshot, and Alicia shielded Frederick from it. They're still operating on her." Penny was present as well, but she didn't even dare to breathe loudly, standing next to Mr. Clements.

At this moment, Frederick, who was covered in blood, was eerily like a ghost who'd cfrom h*ll. He gave off a murderous aura.

It felt like a century later when the operation theatre's light finally turned off.

As soon as the door opened, Frederick rushed over and asked, "How is she?" "Frederick, I've tried my best..." As soon as Carson opened his mouth, Frederick grabbed his collar, which wrapped around Carson's neck tightly. Frederick shook him, his eyes bloodshot. "What did you say? Say it again! Aren't you a highly-skilled doctor? She won't die! She will be fine! Can you cure her? Give her back to me! Give her back!" "Frederick, don't do this! Let Carson finish his words first!" Trevor pulled Frederick away, his face pale. Alicia wouldn't die just like that, would she? Carson choked and coughed.

He waved his hands frantically. "She's alive! Alive! But..." With one sentence, Frederick's tears seemed to freeze in his eyes. He turned "What? What? Tell me! She is alive, isn't she? She won't leave me, right?" and latched onto Carson again. When spoke, his voice was so soft, as if were afra to scare Carson.

Carson nodded.

He caught his breath and said, "The bullet was too close to her heart! I mean, I did my best to get it out. The operation was a success, but the bullet was too close to her heart and it caused major blood loss. She's having a fever now, and we can't detect any signs of consciousness." "What do you mean?" Frederick's voice trembled. "Make it clear. Say something that I can understand!" "Although she still has signs of life, the current situation isn't optimistic! If the fever doesn't subside by tomorrow and she doesn't wake up, things are just going to get worse. It's very likely that she might never wake up again."

Even if she did make it through, they couldn't do anything about her fever, which could be very detrimental for her health. In fact, all her vitals were very weak.

In fact, Carson knew that the probability of her waking up was extremely low, but he was afraid that e it would be too much of a blow to Frederick. He told Frederick to wait for a day so he could calm down overnight. "I don't care what you do. Just keep her alive, even if she's comatose forever!" As Frederick held on to Carson's arms, his Adam's apple bobbed, and his eyes were obviously pleading. As long as Alicia was still breathing, then they had hope. His Ally was strong and stubborn. She wouldn't leave him behind just like that! "I know, I will do my best! Later, I will discuss with the cardiologists and see if there are any other methods..." "Thank you! Tonight, I want to accompany her!" "Frederick..." Carson hesitated and frowned. Finally, he let out a sigh.

"Fine! She has to be monitored in the ICU tonight. I'll get the nurses to make the necessary arrangements. You need to shower and change into protective clothing. The ICU doesn't normally allow for visitors, to avoid contamination." "All of you, go home! I don't want to see anyone and I don't want to listen to any advice. I don't want anyone to disturb us!" After finishing his words in a slightly dispirited tone, Frederick strode away without even turning his head.
