Chapter 357
"Jasper, Jasper..." Eden called out anxiously but Jasper had already hung up the phone.
Eden's face turned pale instantly. She had always hoped she wouldn't hurt Jasper.
That was the man she had never wanted to hurt!
She did not expect the news today would provoke him. She had always thought that Jasper was steady and mature, and was very clear of their relationship.
However...
Eden's heart was churning with bitterness. The complicated emotions she felt had caused her entire body to tremble in pain.
She picked up the cold water on the table and took a few sips to sober herself up.
Victor walked back after he had finished talking on the phone.
He had a faint smile on his face. Kenny had called to ask him about Eden's situation because he was very worried!
Eden quickly composed herself when she saw that Victor had returned.
Her perception of Victor was different from anybody else.
Therefore, she wanted to indulge herself for once and experience what it felt like to have a boyfriend!
She was indeed very happy today!
People lived for themselves. Eden wanted to live for herself for just one day. She didn't expect so many things would happen.
Victor sat opposite her, looked at her pale face and asked, "Eden, we've had fun the whole day today. You should be tired, right?"
Eden nodded slightly and didn't say anything. She was tired but her heart was even more tired.
"Eden, let's go back to the hotel to rest after dinner."
"Okay!" Eden nodded and said, "My flight is at ten o' clock tomorrow morning."
Victor also nodded slightly. "Eden, My flight is also at ten o'clock. Let's go back together!"
"Okay!" Eden suddenly realized that Victor did not come here for business but because she was here.
She had to go back and investigate to clear the doubts in her mind.
The dishes were served quickly. Victor and Eden chatted as they ate!
Eden composed herself and did not show her
emotions when she talked to Victor.
Victor felt much more at ease when he saw that Eden was not affected by what had happened today.
"Eden, here. This is the fish you like to eat. You should eat more." Victor put the most tender fish into her bowl as he spoke.
Eden looked up at him and curled her lips slightly. "Victor, you should eat too. Don't pay too much attention to me. I can eat myself. I'm not a child!"
"Hehe..." Victor felt like laughing when he saw her serious look.
"Eden, to me, you are a little girl. Eat quickly. What else do you want to eat? Let’s order more!"
Eden rolled her eyes helplessly when she heard that. She said, "Victor, we already have a lot of dishes. We may not be able finish them even if there are two of us."
Victor was about to speak when Eden's phone rang suddenly.
Eden put down her chopsticks and saw that the call was from Jaida.
Her heart became slightly heavy. Jaida called her because she was probably worried about what had happened to her today.
"Hello! Mom!"
"Eden, are you okay?"
"I’m fine, Mom. I'm having dinner. Have you and Dad eaten?"
"Eden, I saw the news today. I am worried about you."
Eden smiled sweetly. "Mom, I'm really fine. The news didn't affect me at all. Don't worry. You should have fun with Dad."
"Okay, Eden. You've done a great job!"
Eden was slightly confused. Why did Jaida say something like that to her?
"Mom, you..." Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Eden, listen to me. You have to be more careful when you go to work in the company in the future. Don’t work there if you really can't take it. With your current achievements, if you open a small store on your own, the business would also be great. I don't want you to get hurt!"
When Eden heard that, she smiled and said, "Mom, you really don't have to worry about me. I am having dinner with Mr. Alwynn now. How could I still have dinner with him calmly if I am affected by the news?
You don't have to worry, Mom. People can say whatever they want. Anyway, I don't care about gossip!"
It was a fact that she held hands with Victor. She did not deny that.
She just wanted to indulge herself this time, just this time!
Jaida was still worried. She urged, "Okay! Eden, your father and I will come back in three days. You have to take good care of yourself."
"Mom, I will take care of myself. You really don't have to worry. You should have a good time when you are having your honeymoon with Dad. Don't be bothered by these trivial things."
Eden felt a little helpless. Jaida would be worried about her even when it was just a trivial matter.
"Okay! You guys continue to eat then. I'm hanging up!"
"Okay! Goodbye, Mom!" Eden hung up the phone and she didn’t feel as tired as she was before.
Victor looked at her gently and said, "Eden, you have a very good relationship with your mother!"
"Yes!" Eden nodded slightly before she lowered her head and continued to eat.
Victor glanced at her. He didn't ask her any more questions when he saw that she was unwilling to discuss the subject.
After dinner, Victor drove back to the hotel with Eden.
It was already past nine o'clock at night.
Victor knew that Eden was very tired. He didn't pester her but let her go back to rest instead!
He was already very satisfied that he could spend the whole day with her and take care of her!
"Eden, good night!" Victor stood at the door with a bright and dazzling smile on his face.
Eden smiled and said, "Victor, good night." They would no longer be lovers after tonight.
Victor was about to turn around and enter his room when Eden suddenly called out to him.
"Victor."
Victor turned back and stared at her quietly. He actually wanted to accompany her for a while but when he saw her tired face, he held back the urge and forced himself to go back to his room!
His heart was filled with excitement when Eden called out to him.
Eden smiled slightly and said, "Victor, thank you for today! I'm very happy today!" Even though something happened today, she still had a good time.
As for the other things, she had already found a direction to investigate.
Victor winked at her and his lips curved into a gentle arc. "Eden, I am glad you are happy!" Victor swore that he would make Eden happy every day in the future.
He did not say his thoughts on that.
He still had many things to say to her after he brought her home.
Eden looked at him and smiled gently. She then turned around and entered her room.
Victor waited until the door was closed before he came back to his senses. He opened the door and entered his room.
The gentle smile on Eden's face vanished when she returned to her room. She regarded the smile as a final goodbye.
She changed her shoes, picked up her pajamas and went to take a bath.
When she came out to dry her hair half an hour later, she suddenly heard a notification from WhatsApp.
