Chapter 284
Saul didn't go to reason with Victor because he knew how ruthless Victor was.
If things got out of hand, no company in River City would dare to hire him.
Myra warned loudly, "Manager Marks, some things are meant to be kept a secret."
Saul smiled bemusedly and said calmly, "Miss Gienger, I know the rules. The Gienger family has never looked for Cyan ever since she disappeared that night.
I heard that she didn't belong to the Gienger family. I also know that your family didn't even pay for her college tuition fees. Even though Mr. King had signed the contract, his wife found out about his stay in the hotel the next day.
However, the woman whom her wife had caught in the hotel was not Cyan."
Eden instantly heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. Ricky's father was not Toby.
She had seen Toby previously. He was almost fifty years old at the moment and his looks were not worth mentioning.
She was drowsy at that time and was pulled by someone. The man was strong and his breath was fresh and clean. It was completely different from Toby's breath, which was filled with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol.
She had carefully recalled the incident when she was determined to give birth to her children at that time. She was sure that Toby was not their father. She felt more at ease after hearing Saul’s words.
"What happened? Why was it not Cyan? Where was Cyan?" Myra was very confused.
Could it be that Toby asked for another woman in the middle of the night?
That stinky man was indeed capable of doing that.
"That’s normal. His other partners should have sent another woman there." Myra came up with a reason to convince herself. That was also the only reason that made sense.
Saul nodded and said, "You’re right. Mr. King would do such a thing. Miss Gienger, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll wait for your call tonight."
"Okay!" Myra replied coldly.
Eden quickly walked back when she heard footsteps approaching her.
She turned at the corner and leaned aside slightly. She glanced sideways and saw Myra leaving.
She leaned against the wall and looked at the fiery red sunset in the sky with her beautiful eyes. River City was a beautiful city. She used to like this city very much and had many dreams in this city.
However, who was the man who was with her that night?
She would be curious sometimes. However, she didn't look for that man no matter how curious she was because she was afraid to know the truth.
As her three children grew up, she did not want to see that man again.
She was selfish to have such thoughts. However, she couldn't bear to lose her three children.
She was not afraid of contributing or working hard because her three children meant everything to her.
She had been working hard to improve herself so that she could give her three children a bright future.
"Mom, we can go back now." Henrick, who came out with Abigail, shouted happily when she saw Eden waiting for him downstairs.
He had put on a cap with the brim pressed down so that he would not be recognized by others.
Eden composed herself quickly and walked towards Henrick and Abigail with a smile. She was always confident in front of her children.
She looked at Abigail and smiled gratefully, "Abigail, thank you."
Abigail smiled charmingly and shook her head.
"Eden, I'm not tired. I'll leave Ricky to you tonight. I'm accompanying Jas to meet a customer tonight and I will meet Joziah on the way." She felt helpless because Jasper wanted to stay in River City because of Eden.
She could only try her best to help him and gain a firm foothold in River City.
"Okay. Tell Jasper that I wish him good luck." Eden hoped that Jasper was successful in taking every business deal.
"I will. Go back quickly. Ricky said he wants to eat dumplings. I would definitely go and eat at your place if I am free." Abigail felt like drooling when she thought of the dumplings made by Eden.
Eden was gifted in many ways and was really good at cooking.
She could make lots of delicacies. Whoever married her would be very lucky.
Abigail would be extremely happy if Eden was married to Jasper. Besides, she and Jasper liked Kenny and his siblings very much.
When Eden heard that, she said, "Abigail, I'll make more dumplings and send some to you."
Abigail shook her head quickly and said, "No. I want to eat the dumplings made by you on the spot. I
should be free tomorrow night. Jas and I will go to your place to eat tomorrow night." Abigail made up her mind instantly.
"That's fine!" Eden smiled and nodded gently.
Both Abigail and Jasper liked to eat the dumplings she made.
"Okay! Ricky, Eden, I'll leave first." Abigail smiled before she turned and walked to her car not far away.
"Goodbye, Mommy!" Ricky waved his hand.
A staff member loaded all of Henrick's belongings to the car.
When Abigail drove away, Eden brought Henrick to buy the ingredients for the dumplings.
At the same time, Anson hid in a secluded place as he watched Abigail's car leaving.
He quickly drove his car and followed her.
Anson would not give up a relationship easily once he started it.
He was willing to give it a shot even if he couldn't see a future with Abigail.
How would one know if the path he took was right or not if he didn't give it a shot?
He had to gain Abigail's trust first if he wanted to steal her heart.
Anson smiled as he held onto the steering wheel tightly. He followed Abigail's car all the way.
In the meantime, Victor smiled wickedly as he watched Eden and Henrick leave the company. He carried the things he had packed and left the office.
His plan to pursue Eden had long been brewing in his heart.
The first step was to pester Eden and never let her escape from his sight.
He wanted Jasper to not have the chance to take advantage of the situation again.
Victor walked out of the company and headed for Eden's apartment. He planned to walk there as it was not far from the company.
He met Haven, who was walking towards him as soon as he left the company.
His brows furrowed and he had an impatient expression on his face when he saw Haven.
Haven walked up to him and called out gently with a smile, "Victor, where are you going?"
"Where I am going has nothing to do with you." Victor had a cold expression on his face and his tone was cold.
Haven felt a stab of pain in her heart suddenly. Victor had always treated her with that kind of attitude.
She quietly gazed at him with bright eyes and asked sadly, "Victor, I want to know the reason you refused to marry me. Is it because of Eden Clement or because I was adopted by the Clement family?"
It was the first time Victor heard her asking him this. He looked at her suddenly and sneered, "Haven, those are not the reasons. It's because I do not have feelings for you."
Haven's fantasies were all broken when she heard Victor say that he had no feelings for her.
She smiled bitterly suddenly and asked, "Victor, would you marry Eden Clement if she comes back?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
