Chapter 847
After inspecting the construction project in the Casterwich City suburban area, Frederick returned to his apartment. When the exhausted Frederick came out of the shower, another annoying ringtone rang from his mobile phone. It was already eleven at night. Who could that be? He couldn't even have a single moment of peace!
Rubbing the sore spot between his eyebrows, he put down the towel in his hand and turned to the other side. Just as he picked up his cell phone, his heart skipped a beat.
An unknown number?
After a pause, he pressed the answer button, but kept silent.
As expected, a ghostly and sinister female voice rang out, "Frederick, I miss you so much!"
At that moment, he really wished he could smash the phone into pieces. As soon as Trevor moved, Danica stopped him as if she had knew he would smash the phone, "Please don't hang up the phone. Don't you want to know why I am so confident?" A cold smile appeared on his face as she threatened, "You will definitely regret it!"
Every word was said so clearly as if she was afraid that he wouldn't hear her clearly. Frederick listened to her carefully, and actually felt a sense of creepiness emerging from her call.
After all, he had seen much in life; he was not a person who could be easily threatened, which was why Fredrick neither hung up the phone, nor said anything.
She didn't know if it was because of her tacit understanding or a woman's sixth sense, even as she was talking to herself, Danica seemed to be able to sense his presence through the phone. She then gave out a creepy chuckle, seemingly celebrating her victory. "Guess what I did? Aren't you curious?"
She knew him well!
There weren't many people in this world who understood him better than she did! No matter how ruthless a person was, sometimes, there would always be times when they were affectionate! They were just like her, who was persistent with her initial choice! Closing her eyes, Danica clenched her skinny hands on her cell phone tightly. The pain on her face was intertwined sinisterly, giving off a malevolent and ferocious, but lonely aura.
"Why couldn't you give me another chance?"
"Frederick, how can you be so cruel to me? You treated me so well in the past, remember? You had always treated me with so much sincerity, and you would always remember everything I've said! You would always try your best to give me everything I desire, even when it's hard! Moreover, you would be willing to spend a year, two years, or even ten to make me happy... Landrum Garden, huh..."
That was supposed to be a fairy-tale kingdom that he promised to build for her. Unfortunately, not only did Lundrum Garden never come to exist, its gates wouldn't even open for her in the end.
It was all because of that little b*tch! That woman was enjoying the fruit of her hard work for the past decade, yet he wouldn't even fulfil her dying wish. This woman had a lot of gall, didn't she? She wasn't even asking for a long-lasting relationship, yet she couldn't even be given this small portion of his life?
Why were things so unfair? Why was she the one on the receiving end of all things good?
If God didn't want to help her, so be it! She'd do it herself!
"Frederick, I beg you one last time, before I pass on, can you please use the last half of the year and give me a perfect end to this life? At most, it will only take half a year for me to completely disappear from your world. I want to hold a wedding with you, even if it's just for- show. We will visit my grandmother together, and enjoy the picturesque scenery. Let's enjoy the rest of my life together. I want to stay in your arms, and live together in the 'Landrum Garden' that you have built for me." She then closed her eyes in gratification.
Even if everything had changed, even if it was no longer called Landrum Garden, their history could never be erased!
If he could make up a short yet happy life for the next six months for her, everything would be perfect. Even if it was just a dream, she would leave the world with a smile.
If her father, who was bedridden, could wake up before she left; or if she could find out her mother's identity, she would be able to die with no regrets! For her, death was not as harsh nor as sorrowful as living. The most painful thing in this world was staying alive when it was easier to die!
This is what she was feeling at the moment. She was sick, had no relatives or friends. In this world, she was all alone. Everything was black and white in her world; everything was monotonous.
At first, he had been sympathetic to her situation.
But after listening to her, Frederick was so numb that he was no longer fazed by anything she said.
"Danica, do you know what your greatest achievement is?"
"Eh?" Hearing his words, Danica's eyes lit up suddenly. She was so happy that even her interjection was filled with endless joy.
However, on the other side, Frederick said without mercy, "You killed everyone's sympathy for you, and you've turned every good impression anyone has of you into complete loathing!"
Although her life was miserable, it
was not his fault. At that point, he
was so annoyed by her that even his sympathy for strangers had vanished. Even their mutual past was no longer enough to make him take pity on her. Even if he still remembered some of the beautiful memories, it had all been destroyed by her.
"Danica, the most terrible thing about you is not your health, but your heart! I just realized that perhaps, we have never been on the same page even since the start!" Thus, even if the accident didn't happen, they wouldn't have been together.
Under the seduction of profits, she chose fifty million dollars over him, and left without a word for six whole years. She had never considered his feelings. Throughout the years they were separated, he always had an obsession. Even if he accidentally met someone Alicia, the initial thought on his mind was not to abandon her!
After thinking about this, Frederick was glad that the one who he fell in love with at last was Alicia! However, he was also regretful for hurting Alicia. Even if the two of them were not together, he felt warm whenever he thought of her. No matter how difficult things were with her, it was worth it!
At the moment, he was happy!
"Danica, let it go..." Why was she still so stubborn after such a long time? Why didn't she take the time and initiative to treat her illness and to live well instead?
The next second, Danica had flown into a fit of rage.
With her tone raised a few pitches, she screamed into the phone, "Stop saying that! You're clearly possessed now. Everything I do is wrong to you! Even if that woman does nothing, you'll think she's right! You're clearly biased towards her. You're not being fair to me..." Danica continued screaming as she pulled her hair until they started to fall out, strain by strain.
"If she had become an idiot, would you still say that? You will realize that we are the most suitable pair! I'm the one you love. It's me, it's me! You will definitely beg me to be with you, you will!"
She kept muttering, not knowing if she really wanted to tell him that, or just simply brainwashing herself. As she finished her words, Danica hung up the phone with a "bang".
On the other end, Frederick was left completely speechless. He didn't even have the strength length to click on the 'block contact' button. Just what on earth was she thinking? Worriedly, Frederick called Holger again.
"Did you find anything weird?"
