Chapter 376
Eden recalled Bethany's words, "This is your fate and you should accept it!"
Eden glanced sideways at Bethany who was standing not far away.
Bethany was looking in her direction from time to time.
Her eyes seemed to be careless but they were extremely sharp.
"Eden, you..."
"Jasper, send me the information first. I will make the decision. Don't worry, I won't be soft-hearted." Eden interrupted him suddenly.
Jasper was silent for a while before he responded light and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Eden did not walk back to face Bethany. She went straight back to her office instead. She was very busy today.
Bethany looked at Eden's back coldly and smiled coldly. She did not intend to let Eden go.
She shouted suddenly, "Eden, don't go. Since we are all here, let's make it clear. Just admit that you are Cyan in front of Mr. Alwynn.
You can deceive us but not Mr. Alwynn.
I'm going to expose you and let everyone see your true colors today. How did you actually repay your adopted parents?
You are shameless for having children before marriage. As your mother for more than ten years, I also want to know the identity of the father of your children."
Bethany's cold words caused Eden to stop in her tracks immediately.
Eden's gaze turned cold when she heard the phrase "having children before marriage" again. It seemed that Bethany did not intend to let her go.
Bethany had played a role and caused Eden to have children before marriage. If she hadn't set her up at that time, how would other people able to hurt Eden with their words?
All of that had happened because of Bethany!
Eden's gaze grew colder and colder.
Eden turned around slowly and her face was terrifyingly cold.
However, the first thing that she saw was Victor's dark and handsome face.
As she took a step forward, Victor said angrily, "Bethany, apologize to her."
He was furious as he spoke word by word.
Bethany was frightened by his sudden anger and took a step back.
Antony and Brody were unable to speak at the moment.
Eden looked at Victor with a complicated expression on her face as she stood on the spot!
She thought that he wouldn't say or do anything and would just stand by and watch. She didn't expect he would ask Bethany to apologize to her. Such a thing had happened once not long ago.
Bethany had also apologized to her before under Victor's cold gaze.
Anson could not help but take a few steps away when he heard Victor’s words.
If his guess was right, Eden was Victor's line that couldn’t be crossed.
Bethany had played herself out this time.
Bethany was dumbfounded and speechless at the moment. Victor had lost his patience.
He glanced at his surroundings angrily and realized that Anson who had been standing next to him a while ago, had disappeared.
Anson lowered his head when he saw that Victor was looking for him. Before Victor could call out to him, he rushed forward and said with a smile, "Victor, you're looking for me!" This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Victor looked at him coldly, "Go and hold a meeting with the shareholders to proceed with the acquisition."
"Ah..." Anson cried out in surprise.
Anson narrowed his eyes when he saw Victor's gaze turn cold. He quickly moved his feet and ran faster than a hare.
He suddenly realized that he didn't bring his phone with him when he reached the elevator. He had no choice but to run back. He inadvertently looked and saw Victor's cold gaze. Victor’s gaze seemed like he wanted to tear Anson apart.
Anson ran past Victor as fast as lightning. He was gone in a flash after he went back to take his phone.
Bethany, who was in shock, came back to her senses at the moment.
She walked towards Victor whose gaze was cold and pleaded, "Mr. Alwynn, no. I apologize now. I take back what I said. Mr. Alwynn, please take back what you said too!"
Bethany quickly turned around to look at Eden and said, "Director Bleu, I'm really sorry. I didn't think when I spoke just now!"
Eden looked at Bethany's snobbish behavior.
Bethany was just apologizing to cope with Victor's anger. She was not sincere at all.
She looked at Bethany calmly and said in a flat tone, "Bethany, you spoke without thinking but your words were hurtful! However, my heart is not that painful at the moment because I am accustomed to hearing those kinds of words! I don't accept your apology!"
"Director Bleu, I..."
Eden interrupted her, "Bethany, I have nothing to say to you!"
Why should she accept an apology that was not sincere?
The Gienger family owed her an apology indeed!
Eden was treated like a servant when she lived with the Gienger family. She did the housework and cooking. She would do all kinds of work when she didn’t go to school.
Bethany was right. She took Eden back to be a maid.
Other servants had a salary every month but she...
She had nothing. The clothes she wore most of the time were the ones that Myra didn't want to wear.
Victor looked at Eden heartbreakingly. She was always hurt by others under his eyes. His heart was in excruciating pain when he looked at her thin and helpless figure.
Eden wouldn't have suffered so much if Bethany didn't take her away back then.
The more Victor thought about it, the angrier he became. He turned around and tipped a pot of greenery that he had nurtured for several years to the ground.
"Smash..." The shattering sound of the porcelain pot was unusually crisp.
Bethany quickly turned to look at Victor. Her heart was about to jump out of her throat when she saw Victor's unstable behavior.
Eden also looked at him blankly. She couldn't understand Victor's crazy temper.
Lucian who was standing behind Victor frowned when he saw that. There was anger in his eyes. He had been nurturing the greenery all the while and the plant had been growing really well.
He walked over and was about to speak when he saw that Victor's palm was bleeding.
He swallowed back the unpleasant words that he was going to say.
Lucian was not afraid of Victor. He would still speak his mind like usual even though Victor was angry.
He was not like Anson and Adonis. They would run away whenever Victor got angry.
He looked at Eden calmly and said, "Director Bleu,
Mr. Alwynn's hand is bleeding. Go back to the office with Mr. Alwynn and help him bandage his wound. The medicine kit is in the bottommost layer of the cabinet next to the data cabinet.
I will take care of the things here!"
Eden glanced at Victor and saw that blood was dripping from his hand to the ground.
Victor was in a rage just now that he didn't feel any pain until now!
