Chapter 319
Victor could not live without Eden.
He had been waiting for her for so many years!
He was grateful that Jasper took care of Eden and his children all these years.
Eden was the only girl who had ever made him want to live. He couldn't and didn’t want to forget her.
Jasper looked at Victor angrily.
Victor smiled elegantly and said, "Jasper, I can only tell you that I will never hurt Eden no matter what I do. You just need to remember this."
"Why should I believe you?" Jasper's tone was filled with anger!
Victor sneered and said, "Jasper, do you have any other choice other than trusting me?"
"I..."
"I've finished lunch and I've already said what I should say. I'll take leave first!" Victor got up as he spoke and left gracefully under Jasper's angry gaze.
Jasper looked at Victor's back. He got up angrily and chased after him.
"Victor, stop right there!" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Victor ignored him. He walked forward with his hands in his pockets.
"Humph!" Jasper snorted coldly and his imposing aura was weaker than Victor's.
He strode after Victor and his handsome face was filled with pride. "Victor, you can’t leave until you make it clear today."
The reason he asked Victor out today was to get to the bottom of things!
Victor frowned at Jasper. He emanated an icy cold aura that lingered slightly around Jasper. His lips were tightly pressed together on his dazzling and handsome face and he looked at Jasper deeply.
"Jasper, I've already said all that I should say to you. I have nothing else to say." His tone was cold and he no longer had the patience to continue the conversation.
Jasper sneered and tugged the corner of his lips. He said, "You have to tell me the reason you investigated Eden today."
Victor raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Jasper, I have already told you very clearly that I have no ill intention towards Eden! You have heard every word clearly!"
"Why are you investigating her then if you have no ill intention? I suppose it's not as simple as just being interested in her." He was afraid that Eden's identity would be exposed and cause her harm once again.
Victor looked at the persistent Jasper and frowned slightly. "Jasper, how many times do I have to tell you before you will believe me?"
Jasper said angrily, "I won't believe you no matter how many times you repeat."
"Hehe..." Victor sneered, "Do you think there is any need to continue this conversation?"
"What is your reason?" Jasper persisted.
He was afraid that Eden would get hurt!
Victor had made up his mind and said in a gentle tone, "Jasper, do you think a person needs a reason to love someone?"
Jasper felt as if his heart had been struck by a thunderbolt.
What did Victor just say?
"Do you think a person needs a reason to love someone?" Jasper was shocked. Victor had feelings for Eden-
Jasper was unwilling to think further.
"Victor, you..."
Victor glanced at Jasper who had a painful expression on his face. He couldn't bear to continue to say what he wanted to say.
He walked past Jasper and was about to leave when he saw Eden and Zofia walking towards him.
Jasper’s back was facing Eden. He raised his eyebrows slightly and he stared at Victor coldly.
"Victor..."
"Eden."
Victor's word made Jasper swallow the words that he was going to say.
He turned around quickly and saw Eden and Zofia.
Eden looked at Victor and Jasper in confusion. Why were they together?
"Mr. Alwynn, Jasper, what a coincidence!" Eden greeted with a smile.
Eden and Zofia didn’t go back home to cook after they cleaned up the store because it was late. They thought of coming here to have dinner instead.
Zofia also smiled and nodded to Victor and Jasper.
Jasper no longer had a cold expression on his face. He asked, "Eden, Zofia, haven't you had dinner yet?"
"That’s right, Jasper, we haven't eaten yet. Have you eaten? If you haven't, let's eat together!" Eden looked at Jasper and Victor.
"No." "No."
Victor and Jasper answered in unison.
They glanced at each other quickly and their eyes were burning with anger.
Jasper was angry with Victor for not knowing what was good for him and saying such words at this time.
Victor was angry with Jasper's hypocrisy but on second thought, he realized that he was the same.
"Let's eat together!" Eden walked towards Jasper with a smile.
Jasper smiled at her gently.
Victor watched and did not show any expression on his face. However, deep down, he was furious.
Jasper was provoking him!
Jasper asked, "Eden, how come there only the two of you? Where are Kenny and Gia?"
"They went to the library. They told me that they will eat outside and will only return at eight o'clock. The siblings are bookworms." Eden smiled contentedly. Her three children had been working hard all the while. It seemed that they would be able to do homework on their own when they attended primary school!
"They went by themselves?" "Yes!" Eden nodded and smiled, "They went out in the morning. They didn't want to stay at home even though I let them watch TV!"
"Hehe, the two kids are so sensible that you don't have to worry about them." Jasper's mood became better when he mentioned Kenny and Gia.
Victor followed behind them gloomily. He felt that he was transparent to Eden when Jasper was present.
Zofia also followed behind quietly.
Buddy, who came here to socialize, greeted the guests. He turned around and saw Zofia, who was following behind Victor silently.
"Zofia..." He cried out painfully.
Aisling, who was behind him, walked out at the moment. However, she did not see Zofia.
She looked at Buddy's back and shouted, "Buddy, why are you still standing there? Let's go home."
Buddy ignored Aisling. His painful gaze was fixed on Zofia and he saw Eden put a glass of water in front of her. He quickly withdrew his gaze when he heard the footsteps behind him.
He turned around and walked forward indifferently without even looking at Aisling.
Aisling frowned when she saw that and followed him.
She warned, "Buddy, you have to pull yourself together. Don't be too sentimental. We had spent almost all our savings to buy the land this time. You should know its importance, right?"
"Yes!" Buddy responded coldly and did not say anything else.
Aisling glared at him and said, "Buddy, pull yourself together. You've seen the articles about Zaiden. Go and find out who his daughter is. If we are able to get an investment from Zaiden, it will save us a lot of trouble for the start-up capital."
Buddy's face was filled with anger when he heard that. "Mom, what do you want? You don't want me to have a joint marriage with his daughter, do you?"
