Chapter 391
Lucian continued to look at Victor in disbelief. "Victor, are you sure you're not dreaming right now?"
Victor frowned and glared at him. He was really going crazy. Why did he tell Lucian that?
"You can leave now if you don't believe me!"
After that, he opened a can of beer and raised his head to take a sip!
Lucian slowly withdrew his gaze from Victor and his eyes darkened slightly. He knew that Victor would never joke about things like this. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
He lowered his head and looked at the beer on the table. He also picked up a can of cold beer, opened it and drank half a can. The cold sensation in his mouth had made him sober up a lot!
When he finished the beer, he opened another can of beer.
This time, he touched the can in Victor's hand and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Victor!"
Victor leaned lazily on the sofa with the can of beer in his hand. He looked at Lucian and said with a smile, "You believe me now?"
Lucian replied, "You don’t usually lie!"
Victor said, "You know me well indeed!"
Victor and Lucian looked at each other and smiled before they raised their heads and took another sip of beer.
The brilliant lights shone on their handsome faces. Men who drank without restraint were indeed charming.
Sometimes alcohol could change men the most!
For example, Victor who grew up in adversity, had control when it came to drinking. Sometimes, he could see the world even more clearly when he was slightly drunk.
His experience over the years had given him insight to the world and he had learned the skills to survive in society.
Victor was unlike Anson, Lucian and Adonis, who grew up healthily under the care of their parents. They only knew how to indulge in themselves in alcohol when they were unhappy!
Victor drank because he wanted to carry out business with the clients.
He said, "Lucian, don't tell anyone about this, especially that gossiper Adonis. Don't spill the beans to him."
Lucian nodded and said, "Got it!"
Lucian smiled and looked at Victor enviously. After some time, he opened his mouth and said sultrily, "Victor, I have never envied anyone but I'm extremely envious of you at the moment!"
"Hahaha..." Victor laughed triumphantly. He knew that Lucian would also be envious of him.
When he learned that he had three children, he was more shocked and happier than ever!
Lucian couldn't help but laugh together with Victor. "Look how smug you are."
Victor raised his eyebrows and said, "Shouldn't I be smug? My three children are very outstanding."
Victor paused for a moment before he said heartily, "Lucian, I finally believe that some things that have been lost will come back to us in another way!"
Lucian said, "Perhaps so. It's hard to imagine. You're infatuated with Eden and have waited for her for so many years. Her return is also a form of compensation to you for losing everything.
I've seen a quote from a book. It is similar to what you have said. All the misery will pass and all the losses will be regained in another way.
Sometimes, one had to believe in fate.
There is also no wound that cannot be healed. The person you are destined to be with will return to your side one day!"
Victor nodded slightly and looked at Lucian.
He said in his heart, "Lucian, time will let you meet someone better."
He chose to tell Lucian everything tonight because he saw that Lucian was devastated for the past few days.
He said, "Lucian, you have to be persistent and never let go of the person you like, just like me. Fate has nothing to do with it."
Lucian smiled wryly and said, "Victor, you're wrong. I don't have the same experience as you so I won't be too persistent. I just want a love that is mutual!"
Victor said sarcastically, "Lucian, everyone in this world wants a mutual love!"
"So Eden doesn't know that you're the man she had spent the night with seven years ago." Lucian changed the topic and his tone became serious suddenly.
Victor responded lightly, "Yes!"
He took another sip of beer and slowly closed his eyes. There were indescribable emotions in his eyes.
Lucian did not say anything but waited silently for him to speak.
"Lucian, I have my plans. Eden has lost her childhood memories and she can't find the way home because of that.
I will tell her what happened seven years ago after she finds out about her identity."
Lucian looked at Victor suddenly. His eyes were brighter than ever but there was also an unconcealable conspiracy in them.
"Victor, are you planning to let Eden slowly fall for you? I believe you followed her to Fralstin last time on purpose!"
"Yes!" Victor nodded slightly. He recalled the days in Fralstin and felt that he was really happy those days.
He leaned against the sofa lazily and there was a hint of inexplicable expectation in his eyes.
Lucian felt that the knot in his heart had been untied.
He regained his usual composure and his eyes turned calm and tranquil.
Victor was relieved when he saw that.
"Lucian, thank you!" Victor expressed his gratitude to Lucian for the first time.
Lucian looked at him calmly. He pursed his lips, blinked his eyes and said, "Victor, that's because of you!"
Victor smiled and said, "That's why I thanked you!"
Lucian stood up and looked down at him. "I'm going back. My mother will be worried."
He headed out after he had finished speaking. Victor did not stop him this time.
He watched him leave quietly instead.
He only withdrew his gaze when the door was closed. He took out his cell phone and glanced at it. He frowned slightly when he saw that his phone was dead, got up and went upstairs to charge his phone!
When Eden reached home, she carried Gia, who had fallen asleep in the car, back to her room. Zofia had also returned home when Eden came out from Gia's room.
Eden told Jaida and Zofia what had happened.
When Jaida heard that, she blamed herself for not looking after Gia and caused her to suffer for no reason!
When Eden saw that Jaida was still unhappy, she said with a smile, "Mom, Gia is fine now. What happened today was an accident. Bethany has been taken away. She has done a lot of illegal things so she might not get out of prison!"
Eden felt extremely bitter when she said that.
Jaida nodded and said, "Eden, she deserves it. People should be kind and should not do immoral things. We should be gentle and kind like you, Eden." Jaida's tone was doting and she gently stroked Eden' s head.
Eden smiled slightly and did not say anything.
