Chapter 260
Victor recalled his fate with Eden.
She was by his side seven years ago and she saved him once when he got into a car accident.
Sometimes, he had to exclaim that fate was really a wonderful thing.
Victor carried Eden downstairs. He felt that he was getting close to happiness with every step he took.
As for Eden, she stayed on his back quietly.
She felt very strange at the moment. Victor's firm back gave her a sense of security which she seldom experienced.
Victor carefully put Eden on the ground when they reached the first floor.
"Thank you!" Eden smiled gratefully at him.
Victor curled his lips slightly and did not speak.
Eden's phone suddenly rang.
Victor glanced at it and saw that the call was from Jasper.
"Hey, Jasper!"
"Eden, Ricky, and Abigail are here. Let's have dinner together." Jasper spoke happily on the other side of the phone.
When Eden heard that, she frowned and said, "Jasper, I have something to do tonight. I don't think I can go."
Her laptop had been tampered by Riley. Moreover, Riley was very close to the people from the Gienger family.
She would not allow something bad to happen. Otherwise, she would fall into the bottomless abyss again during her return this time.
She had a hard time climbing out of the abyss. She just couldn't fall down again.
"Eden, even if you don't miss Abigail, don't you miss Ricky?" Jasper started to grumble.
What was more important than meeting her son?
Eden could tell that Jasper was disappointed. She smiled and said, "Jasper, I will let Kenny to accompany you. I still have work to do. It's really a pity that I can't see you guys." Her tone was rather sappy.
Victor felt that Eden had been subconsciously coquettish to Jasper.
"Alright then. Nobody can change your mind when you are obsessed with your work. I will ask Kenny to pack and bring back your favorite dishes so you don't have to cook for dinner. You should eat something first so that you won't be hungry." "Okay. Thank you, Jasper. You are really good at taking care of people." Eden smiled brightly and her eyes were filled with tenderness and happiness.
She regarded Jasper as her family because he really gave her the feeling of firmness, warmth and stability in her life.
Victor looked at the smile on her face. The summer breeze blew her soft and silky hair. The sunset shone in through the window and she looked picturesque under the sunset. Victor found himself having infinite reverie.
Even though time had passed, his dream remained the same since young.
His dream was to find Eden who once gave him warmth.
Eden hung up the phone, put it in her bag and walked carefully. Her foot was still a little painful and she didn't dare to be careless.
Victor followed behind her carefully. Seeing that Eden did not speak, he suddenly asked, "Eden, Ricky is here. Why don't I accompany you to meet him?"
Victor wanted to meet Ricky.
Eden looked at him in confusion and her long lashes fluttered lightly. What right did he have to accompany her to see Ricky?
"No. I have something to do tonight." Eden refused without even thinking about it.
"What is it?" Victor probed. She didn't even want to meet Jasper.
Eden glanced at him and thought about it. Victor was the president of the Alwynn Group. It would be troublesome if the products were leaked. After thinking for a while, she said, "My laptop..."
Eden stopped speaking on second thought. She had no evidence at the moment. Even if she told Victor about it, he would not believe her.
On the contrary, he would think that she was making a big fuss over a small issue.
"I still have work on my laptop that I haven't finished.
I have to go home and finish the rest of my work." Eden simply came up with an excuse.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Victor frowned. Today was the day to establish the final edition of the products but Eden did not hand in the documents to his office.
He thought for a moment before he asked, "Where will Ricky and the others have dinner tonight?"
Eden shook her head slightly. "I didn't ask. Jasper will pick up Kenny." Eden thought for a moment and suddenly felt that something was wrong. She said, "Wait. Victor, do you really want to go? Ricky is just a small spokesperson for your company. He doesn't need to be treated by a president like you personally."
Victor laughed and said, "Who says so? I am dedicated to the staff and models of my company. They would only work efficiently when I serve them."
Eden was speechless.
Was that really the case?
The rumors really could not be trusted!
"But I don't know where they are going to have dinner. Mr. Alwynn, you'd better go back and have a good rest." Eden refused.
Victor nodded and did not press on the issue further. It was easy for him to find Ricky.
Eden felt that her feet were very painful when she walked out of the company.
However, she remained calm and collected. She looked at Victor and said with a smile, "Mr. Alwynn, I'll leave first."
Without waiting for Victor's reply, she quickly walked in the direction of her house.
Victor looked at her slender back and smiled.
Eden had been wandering outside for so many years and had forgotten to return. Victor wanted to bring her home one day.
He felt sorry for losing her for so many years!
Victor looked back and realised that many years had passed. Eden had grown up and had become so talented.
Vincent came to pick up Haven on time today. They saw Eden and Victor when they waited for the red light to turn green in the car.
Haven and Vincent had never seen Victor being this gentle before.
Vincent frowned and looked at Victor. Would Victor ever fall in love with a woman?
On the other hand, Haven’s eyes were filled with pain when she looked at Victor. She had never seen such tenderness in Victor's eyes.
He had always been cold and distant in front of her since young.
Vincent withdrew his gaze and looked at Haven who had a hurt expression on her face. He sneered and said, "What's wrong? Are you sad, Haven?"
Haven quickly hid the emotions in her eyes and said sarcastically, "Why should I be sad? I'm going to be married to you."
Vincent started the car when the light turned green. He sneered and said, "I have nothing to say if you really think like that. However, you have someone else in your heart. You say that you want to marry me but you had secretly gone and meet Victor.
Haven, will you only learn to stop being hypocritical when you are slapped in the face by reality? Will you only learn that people are nasty when I force you to the brink?
You'd better be aware of all this before I decide to marry you. You should behave yourself if you want me to treat you differently."
His words were full of warnings.
He was really not interested in a woman who had another man in her heart.
