Shameless.
Both Alice and Regie Liu has been thinking of the same word though Regie Lui has maintained his composure while the Missus Alice has her face turning into a huge frown.
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Eric's amused voice has broken the silence in the car. If not because he's his Boss, Regie would've answered the question. Can his Boss even hear himself right now? Was his Boss trying to flirt? These are questions Regie needs to answer by himself.
Alice feels this guy is really weird or downright crazy. She's met him a couple of times before, in school and sometimes in the Wu main mansion. But they were never close, so could it be that he's just teasing her? Yeah, that should be it.
"I have to go and I don't need you to send me anywhere."
It was then that Eric ignored her and cued his assistant to send the car to the Second Hospital. The latter then relayed the command to the driver and the car started.
Alice is still thinking whether to jump out of the car but knows that it would be an unnecessary way of getting hurt. Instead, she straightened her back and leaned to the car seat. totally ignoring the person beside her. The whole drive was very quiet except when Eric would occasionally answer calls from his phone. It took them twenty minutes to get to the Second Hospital.
As they arrived, the assistant quickly got off and opened the door for the miss. Alice mumbled a quick thank you and turned around to the seat where Eric is sitting. She then whispered a quick thanks and got out of the car.
She was walking towards the door of the hospital when she noticed that the same man has been following her. She tried to ignore him, for this man feels like a stain in a cloth that is so hard to take off. She is still wondering what the hell's up with that guy. After approaching the counter to ask where her grandmother's room is, she walked faster to get away from him. But this bug continued to hum around her and she thought maybe, just maybe, there was a person that he's visiting, and that they are just going to the same direction. Fortunately, the elevator to the VIP floor has opened and before the man get here, she pushed the button to close the door. She lets go of the breath she was holding. Thank goodness.
Eric has been following Alice to visit the old Madam. He just knew from a call in the airport that the old Madam has been hospitalized and figured that is where Alice is going, so why not just go together, right? That could be the case, but when he tried to talk to her, she was already walking away and even closed the elevator door before he even got there. Maybe she was just shy? After all, a handsome man as him has been a real gentleman.
If his assistant and Alice herself are to hear this young master's reasoning, they would definitely shout the word shameless in his face.
He is still smiling to himself all the while he's walking to the old Madam's room.
Arriving at the door of the room, he has heard a commotion inside and a shouting. He saw that Alice's suitcase was just outside and decided to carry it as he was going to the room. He was never close to this old Madam, but since he knew that he's to be married to Alice, he decided to get in the good side of the old Man and the old Madam. Unfortunately, there was that bug of a stepsister who always hovering during his visits and he was really disgusted in her open flaunt of affections though would not say it out loud because he knows the old Madam favored this disgusting woman.
