Chapter 56
Wasn't this also the main reason why Penny was so annoyed that it was difficult for her to fall asleep?
Although she was now the mistress of the Clements family, Frederick was raised by his grandmother, Mrs. Clements. His status was completely different. Also, he was too capable.
Soaver International had nothing to do with the Clements family at all. It was Frederick's own business. She didn't know how much help the Clements family gave him in the early stage, but it later became a fact that Soaver International had surpassed the Clements family.
How could Mrs. Clements not be proud to have such a successful grandson?
Besides, Mr. Clements felt that he owed his son a lot. Thus, what difference did it make if Penny had children?
The most depressing thing was that although she had a son, he was born ten years late. Even if he was excellent, he would not be able to catch up with Frederick now!
Frederick was really amazing. It was as if he became successful overnight!
At present, it was said that he had won another big project. In this situation, no one could stop him. If things went on like this, most of the Clements family property would fall into his hands!
"Mom, are you listening to me? What should I do now? Grandma likes Brian Haskell very much and his family background is good. His annual income is at least over 100 million dollars and he is very handsome..."
Although he was completely contrary to Willy Bowles, Brian was also good in Hallie's eyes. When she thought of Willy, she was very depressed. Why was he Frederick's friend?
She couldn't aim at Frederick's friends at all! How could a man be willing to be estranged from Frederick just for her? If it weren't for this reason, with her beautiful appearance and family background, why would Willy dislike her?
Suddenly, Penny came to her senses and rolled her eyes at her daughter.
"How can you lose your composure over an entertainer? You are really useless! Don't think that I don't know what you have done tonight. Haven't I told you that you'd better not provoke Frederick? At least, you can't do it in front of him! Are you an idiot?"
Hallie could have messed up her plan. How could she give birth to such a disappointing idiot? She could rely on no one!
"I just... I just can't bear to look at them!" Hallie retorted.
"How can you be successful when you can't even bear this single thing? Halley, you must remember that you are the daughter of the Clements family. You should maintain your composure at any time! As long as the power of the Clements family and Frederick are still there, you'll be like a noble princess. Think about those who pander to you and fawn on you!" Penny said.
After slowing down her tone of voice, Penny tried to comfort Hallie.
"Hence, love is not a big deal! The most important thing is to keep our position in the Clements family and strive for greater rights! As long as you are still the daughter of the Clements family, you will always be the one choosing! You still have plenty of opportunities! There are plenty of handsome young men in the entertainment industry. What I am afraid of now is that both Mason and you can't even obtain the shares in Mrs. Clements' hands! If you have nothing, I am afraid that even the driver will not look at you!" Penny said.
After all, Frederick was brought up by Mrs. Clements herself, and he also had a part of his mother's shares with him. When the time came, Frederick's father would surely give some of his shares to Frederick, and the power of the Clements family would all fall into his hands.
If her husband died, they would be at the mercy of others. It would become unknown whether they could get any shares!
Before Mason was able to compete with Frederick, or before they had full confidence in the situation, they cannot make any mistakes!
"Mom, do you mean..." Hallie understood.
When their eyes met, Penny nodded and said, "Now, we can't allow him to have another son and seize the opportunity!"
"Please urge Mason to get married and have children quickly! I am really disappointed with him. All his girlfriends are useless women! However, Mom, our family's genes are really strange. If we don't sleep with a virgin first, we can't have a baby. The society is so open- minded now and yet our family is trapped with this curse."
Hallie grumbled, and Penny's face changed. She was angry. It seemed that Hallie still didn't understand what was the most important thing now!
"Are you that stupid? He doesn't even have a stable career. What's the use of having a son? Don't talk about Mason in front of your dad and grandma in the future. Or else, he will be the one receiving the blame. Do you understand?" Penny questioned.
Hallie nodded.
She took the milk and drank it. Hallie was still thinking about it. What could she do? At this instant, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind! She got up, whispered a few words in her mother's ear,
and then saw her mother nod and smile.
At this time, in the other room, two persons were passionately getting it on. It drew both of their hearts closer to each other as they kissed and made up through this intimate session.
Alicia fell asleep out of exhaustion while Frederick hugged her and was lost in his thoughts for a long time.
The next day, when they opened their eyes, they seemed to return to the sweet days before the quarrel. One of Alicia's legs rested on him as she stretched herself.
"Morning, Hubby!"
In response, Frederick also landed a gentle kiss on her head. "Morning!"
It was common for her to sleep with her leg on him, but his action was really beyond Alicia's expectation. Almost in an instant, she was completely awake and she looked up at him.
In the past, he used to roll his eyes at her. Did something happen? NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
On second thought, perhaps it was because he was satisfied the night before. Hence, he was in a good mood. Alicia scooped close to him and rested on his chest. After a while, they finally got up.
She bent her ankle from a distance and checked it carefully. When she found that the swelling had subsided and it didn't hurt anymore, she smiled happily.
"It doesn't hurt anymore! Hubby, you are amazing!"
Thinking of his medicine-rubbing the night before, which made her feel excruciatingly painful, she didn't expect it to be so effective!
It seemed that she was born to be good at coaxing people. Her words could make people feel extremely delighted. People couldn’t help but want to dote on her. Frederick was very puzzled. How could a man be willing to give up such a woman?
Or, did she only get such an ability later on?
A trace of doubt flashed across his mind, but it could not stop his joy at the moment. He raised his hand and pinched her rosy cheeks.
"I'll be happier if you say this to me at a different time!" Frederick said.
"You are so annoying!" In an instant, a flush crept up her face. She pushed his hands away and jumped out of bed before rushing to the bathroom.
"Today, I'll take a shower first!" Alicia informed.
Looking at her fleeing figure, Frederick's deep eyes were filled with gentleness.
After washing up, they headed downstairs together. At the door of the dining hall, Frederick suddenly kissed her ear, which startled Alicia.
"Hmm, stop that now!" Alicia said.
As soon as she raised her head, she met a pair of malicious eyes...
