Chapter 294
Anson ran as fast as he could to the parking lot.
Victor chased after him.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, Anson took a deep breath and stood beside a car before he said, "Victor, you can't blame me. I'm just helping you to sober up."
Victor who was standing afar took a deep breath. After a while, he smiled wickedly and said, "Anson, you are right. I am indeed remarkable. If you are capable and remarkable like me, you would have triplets during your first time too."
Anson tugged at the corner of his mouth. Victor was actually showing off and making a comparison with him.
Anson really did not have such confidence.
However, he did not regret splashing water on Victor.
He tried to push his luck.
"Get lost! Go and show off somewhere else! Don't act arrogant in front of me, or I'll make sure you won't be able to be happy for the rest of your life." Anson narrowed his eyes as he warned.
Victor seemed to be indifferent to his threat and his wet clothes.
His eyes darkened suddenly and he said in a sultry tone, "Anson, Eden had moved into a new house. Accompany me to the shopping mall later. We'll pick some gifts and send them to her."
Anson nodded. He glanced at Victor and said, "I'm afraid she won't accept the gifts if they are too expensive."
Victor said in a low voice, "I know. We’ll pick something simple."
He glanced at himself before he shouted angrily, "Go home with me to change my clothes." Victor was very happy today that he didn't bother to get back at Anson.
Anson could only accept his fate. He nodded his head and followed Victor.
He suddenly realized there was a problem. "I don't know where Eden’s house is."
Victor glanced at him disdainfully. "You have Eden's WhatsApp and phone number. You are also not mute. Can’t you call and ask her that?"
"That's right. Why am I so stupid?" Anson also looked down on himself.
He suddenly looked at Victor triumphantly. "Victor, Eden will accept the gift if I am the one who bring it there. I am afraid she won't even answer your call, let alone accept your gift."
Victor's deep eyes were overflowed with pain when he heard Anson's words.
He pressed his lips tightly together and he exuded a stern and oppressive aura. It was obvious that he was both angry and hurt at the moment.
He had to be hard-hearted not to disturb Eden for the sake of Eden and her children's safety, and also for the sake of his future happiness. He would protect them secretly and wait for a happy ending.
He believed that Eden had always belonged to him.
Anson dared not speak when he realized he had touched Victor's limit.
He was not a villain who would rub salt in other people's wounds when he had the opportunity.
He felt that his life was less fun when Abigail was not around.
Alas!
He sighed in his heart. He hoped that Abigail's boyfriend would betray her because he had fallen in love with her at first sight!
Not far away, Haven stared coldly at Victor and Anson's back as they returned to the office.
She wondered what had happened to Victor when she saw that he was drenched.
She lowered her head and glanced at the strand of hair in her hand.
She would no longer execute the plan that she had planned together with Myra.
The hair in her hand was left by Eden when she was tidying her hair in the restroom.
She had followed Eden secretly for several days but she only managed to get her hair today.
A trace of viciousness flashed across her dark eyes. Haven would make Eden's life difficult if she was really Eden Clement.
She kept the hair carefully. She took a few steps when her phone rang.
She took out the phone and glanced at the number. She frowned and answered the phone after a while.
"Hello!"
"Haven, bad news." A man's anxious voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Haven felt inexplicably uneasy.
"Haven, you really got me in deep trouble this time. My company's website was attacked by a virus and the newspaper company is shut down now. Haven, didn't you say that everything will be alright?"
Haven didn't expect Victor's people to be so fast that they were able to find out about her uncle so quickly.
Fortunately, she had asked the idiotic Myra to do the deed that time. Otherwise, she would definitely be the person who was kicked out of the Alwynn Group today.
"Haven, are you still listening?"
"Oh, uncle. I'm still listening. Sorry, I didn't know such a thing would happen." There was not a trace of guilt on Haven's face when she said that!
"Haven, it's not about apologizing. You said that there would be no problem doing it.
Nobody in River City dares to simply report about Victor. You are deliberately causing trouble for me.
You're living a peaceful life in the Clement family at the moment but what should your aunt, your cousin and I do?"
Haven frowned constantly as she listened to her uncle's words.
Her uncle's family was very greedy. He could definitely cling on to her like a parasite now that he was desperate.
Haven said in a low voice, "Uncle, don't forget that I was the one who gave you the money to start the newspaper company." She didn't expect that Victor
would care about Eden so much.
"Haven, that's true. However, how did you get into the Clement family..."
"That's enough. Uncle, you are not my biological uncle anyway. Don't always mention this matter. I will go to the bank tomorrow and transfer a sum of money to you. You can use the money to live first. I will think of other ways to help you restore your newspaper company." Haven interrupted him angrily.
Money was the only thing that could keep his mouth shut.
"Alright! Haven, I'm relieved to hear that. I'll wait for your good news."
Both of them hung up the phone quickly. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Haven was distracted as she walked out of the company.
As for Vincent, he still came to pick Haven up every day after work.
Lucian got off work late. He looked at Haven's back and was lost in thought.
He saw Haven enter Vincent's car. He didn’t think much about it when he saw that Adonis had come to pick him up. He had agreed to have dinner with Adonis tonight.
He walked out into the evening sun elegantly.
Eden and Gia went back to their house together.
The house looked the same as before and its exterior had not been renovated.
The interior refurbishment was also pretty good. Eden had also bought some new furniture.
She did not have much money left after she bought the house.
She would live in the house with the current condition.
Besides, she liked the way the house was decorated.
Eden could smell the scent of fried chicken the moment she entered the house.
Kenneth got up and greeted Eden and Giada with a smile when he saw that they had returned.
"Mom, Gia, you are back."
"Humph!" Giada snorted at Kenneth coldly. She ignored him and walked straight into the kitchen.
Kenneth touched his nose and wondered why Gia still held a grudge against him.
Hadn't she gotten over it yet?
Eden took off her shoes and looked at Kenny with a smile. "Kenny, did you offend Gia again when she came back today? It has been a few days. Why is she still angry with you?"
Kenneth shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "Mom, you also know Gia's temper. She hates it the most when people say that she is ugly and I said exactly that to her. I'm afraid that she will only stop getting angry at me after half a month."
Eden smiled wickedly. "Kenny, you'll have to suffer during this period of time then."
Kenneth glanced in the direction of the kitchen and a hint of guile flashed across his calm eyes. "Mom, you don't have to worry. I have a way to deal with Gia."
