Chapter 35 It's Not Impossible for a Love Rat to Be Loyal
When Alicia returned to Grace's house, Grace found her out of her wits.
"Did you buy the breakfast? Why have you been absent-minded since you came back?"
"Edmond did."
Grace had just opened the sandwich and was about to take a bite, but she was really shocked as if she had seen a ghost after hearing Alicia's words.
"Is it toxic?"
Alicia shrugged and said, "I don't know why he did that. He suddenly became very kind to me these past few days."
"Is it because he is guilty and wants to please you?"
"To be honest, I had the same guess. He is a notorious love rat in the circle. Everyone knows that he, the son of the boss of the Agos Group, is a playboy, and he changes girlfriends so fast as changing clothes."
Grace took a bite of the sandwich and a sip of the soybean milk.
Not toxic.
And they were quite delicious.
It made some sense he would buy breakfast for Alicia, but he actually bought food for her? Was it because she was Alicia's best friend and he attempted to curry favor with her?
She pondered for a few seconds and looked up to ask Alicia, "Do you think he's done being a love rat?"
"I never thought about it. I never imagined such a thing."
Seeing Alicia's unnatural gaze, Grace was not convinced by her words but didn't reveal it.
"It's not impossible for a love rat to be loyal. At least he's not a gay. Maybe one day he'll suddenly find out that you're his true love, and he might be completely devoted to you."
Alicia was amused and turned around to refute, asking, "Then why haven't you ever thought of making Eli straight? Maybe one day he will find out that you are his true love, his sexual orientation might change and he might be completely devoted to you."
Grace was momentarily speechless.
In the afternoon, Alicia accompanied Grace to the hospital for a prenatal examination.
They happened to go to the hospital where Edmond worked.
When waiting in the queue for registration, Grace couldn't help but push Alicia's arm and said, "Aren't you going to see your husband? You are already here."
"Why should I go see him?"
"He brought you breakfast this morning, so you should also buy him lunch."
Alicia remained silent for a few seconds and replied, "I didn't bring lunch."
"Not a big deal. Just go to the restaurant to buy. What he wants is your care! How about taking the meal over to visit him and seeing what his reaction is?"
Actually, Alicia was not very interested in Edmond's reaction.
She was about to refuse Grace's proposal when she suddenly remembered that Melissa had said to her that Edmond had a busy job in the hospital and he often skipped meals.
Alicia hesitated for a long time before lowering her head to send a message to Edmond. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
[Are you working at the hospital today?]
It was after a while that she got his reply: [Yes.]
Yesterday when they went to the Blendford City, he said the hospital gave him three days off, but he came back to work today.
Alicia thought his whereabouts seemed hard to guess.
While Grace was waiting in line to register, Alicia went to the restaurant to buy lunch.
Neurosurgery department was on the seventh floor.
After getting to Edmond's office, Alicia found that he was not there.
After asking a nurse, she knew that he had gone to the wards to check the patients and should be back soon, so she sat on a bench outside the office and waited.
A few nurses passing by seemed to recognize that Alicia was the charming beauty who had come last time, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
"Are you also here to see Doctor Agos?"
A nurse took the initiative to step forward and her gaze fell on the lunch in Alicia's hands, with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
"Miss, you better hurry up and leave. Doctor Agos doesn't take bento anymore."
Alicia looked up with a puzzled expression on her face.
Noticing that she had a childlike appearance and a good figure, the nurse liked her very much. However, the thought that this beautiful woman was here to see Doctor Agos made her feel sorry for her.
So the nurse explained it to Alicia very seriously, "The day before yesterday, a girl also came here and wanted to give Doctor Agos a bento, but he refused. At that time, he seemed to say something unpleasant, and the girl was so sad that she cried here. This morning, as soon as Doctor Agos arrived at the hospital, he instructed us not to let women bring him meals in the future."
