At this time, Lucy Liu listened to Alicia's account of the whole incident and cursed in her heart:

"This Turner is really a pervert. He probably got too excited from taking that drug and passed out."

At this moment, she looked at Alicia, whose face was filled with fear and grievance, and gently comforted her: "Alicia, this is not your fault, you are also a victim."

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Alex stormed in. He glared at Alicia and shouted, "Alicia, look at what you've done! If anything happens to Mr. Turner, we'll both be in trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Lucy Liu immediately retorted: “Mr. Alex, this cannot be blamed on Miss Alicia.”

At this time, Alex saw Wilson was also there, so he suppressed his temper and said in a slightly milder tone: "Mr. Wilson, you don't know that Howard Turner is a man who will argue even if it is unreasonable. He can turn black into white. Moreover, he has a certain influence in Country M. Now that Alicia has offended him, I am afraid that the consequences will not be good."

Just as everyone was worried, the phone in the room suddenly rang. Alex hurried forward to answer it.

"Hi, I'm Alex."

A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "I am Tom, Mr. Turner's bodyguard. The doctor said that Mr. Turner suffered a stroke due to excessive excitement from taking medicine. After timely rescue, his current condition is not optimistic. His mouth is crooked and his eyes are slanted, and one side of his body is almost unconscious. Mr. Turner requires compensation from you."

Alex's face instantly became even gloomier. He was about to open his mouth to explain for Alicia and said, "Mr. Turner, this is not Miss Alicia's fault..."

However, before he could finish his words, he heard the other party hang up the phone.

Alex put down the phone helplessly and looked at Alicia sternly.

"Look, we are in big trouble now. Mr. Turner's bodyguard is asking for compensation. What should we do?"

At this time, Alicia's face was full of grievance, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"It's not my fault, it's Mr. Turner..."

At this time, Alex paced around the room irritably, interrupting Alicia's words: "It's not so important now whether you are to blame or not. Mr. Turner will definitely not let it go. We all know his vengeful character.

If I don't meet his demands, my business will be greatly affected. Alicia, this expense must be paid by you, it is impossible for me to bear it. "

Alicia felt wronged when she heard this, tears welling up in her eyes. She stood up from the sofa, walked to Alex, knelt down in despair, and hugged Alex's thighs:

"Alex, I have helped you a lot as your secretary assistant. The compensation this time must be a huge expense. If you want me to bear it, I really can't do it. My mother's expenses are also a burden, and I really can't repay it."

Alex pried Alicia's hand apart and said in a cold tone: "Then I can't do anything. You can only figure it out yourself."

After saying that, he glanced at Wilson next to him again and winked at Alicia, as if suggesting that she had other ideas.

Alex then walked out of the room and closed the door.

At this time, Alicia slumped on the ground, turned her eyes to Lucy Liu, and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Wilson, you can see that my mother has been in the hospital all year round. This is a considerable expense, and I really can't afford Mr. Turner's compensation. Please, can you help me?"

As she spoke, Alicia seemed to have fallen into a desperate madness, and began to unbutton her clothes as she spoke.

Seeing this, Lucy Liu immediately shouted, "Stop! If you unbutton one more button, I will definitely not help you. I'll count to three, and you quickly button it up, 1."

Lucy Liu's voice was serious and firm, with an unquestionable momentum.

Alicia was stunned when she heard this, her hand stopped in mid-air, and a look of panic appeared on her face.

"2." Lucy Liu continued to count, her eyes fixed on Alicia.

Alicia reacted and hurriedly began to button her clothes. Her movements were a little flustered and her fingers were trembling slightly.

"3." As the last number fell, Alicia had already buttoned all the buttons and hurriedly adjusted her clothes.

Then, she looked at Li Yuling expectantly and asked, "Mr. Wilson, do you agree to compensate me?"

Lucy Liu shook her head and said, "I didn't promise you that. But based on what you just said, I can try to help you resolve the conflict between you and Mr. Turner. Or... is there a possibility that Mr. Turner doesn't need your compensation on his own initiative?"

Alicia's mouth opened into an "O" shape when she heard Wilson's words.

"In the business circle of Country M, everyone who knows Mr. Turner knows his character and is afraid of being blackmailed by him. Unless he changes his character, that is impossible."

At this moment, Alicia's face was full of disbelief. She felt that Wilson's idea was simply a fantasy. But at this desperate moment, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, she didn't want to give up. She looked at Wilson eagerly, waiting for his further explanation and action.

At this time, Lucy Liu looked at Alicia's nervous and expectant look, her mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile, and said: "Hey, don't be so sad. Believe me, there will always be miracles. When God closes a door for you, there may be a window left for you in a corner, waiting for us to discover it."

When Alicia heard this, she was stunned at first, and then she burst out laughing.

At this moment, she looked at the handsome Wilson in front of her, and a special feeling surged in her heart. From this moment on, she knew that she had fallen in love with Wilson. In this moment full of crisis and difficulties, this sudden love, like a ray of light in the darkness, gave her a touch of warmth and courage.

At this time, Wilson stood up and helped Alicia, who was slumped on the ground, to the sofa. Seeing Alicia's emotions gradually stabilize, Wilson said softly:

"Alicia, don't be so depressed. Life is like a wonderful adventure. You never know what will happen next. As the saying goes, life is unpredictable and the big intestine is the small intestine."

Alicia interrupted Wilson at this moment and asked in confusion: "What is "large intestine wrapped in small intestine"? Is it a famous snack in Kyoto?"

Wilson was speechless for a moment when he heard this, and complained in his heart: Oh, this is a buzzword in the 21st century, how come I said it so easily?

Then, he looked at Alicia and explained with a smile: "This is not a snack in Kyoto, it comes from W Island and is a very famous special delicacy there. If you have the chance to encounter it, you must try it."

Alicia then asked, "Have you traveled to many places and experienced the delicacies of various places?"

Wilson smiled and said, "I guess so. I like food. Whenever I go to a place, I always like to explore the local specialties. Food is like a window to different cultures and lives, allowing people to appreciate the richness of the world."

……

At this moment, Alicia's affection for Wilson grew stronger. From the initial love to the conversation now, Wilson's knowledge and love for food made him attractive like a magnet, tightly attracting Alicia.

She seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, her eyes unconsciously stayed on Wilson, her heart filled with curiosity and admiration for him.
