Jasper said happily, "Thank you, Uncle Calder. Here's a toast to you!"
Jasper and Zaiden clinked their glasses happily and drank all the wine in one gulp.
Jaida looked at the two of them and also smiled.
She did not ask about Bethany's matter because she was afraid that it would affect Eden's appetite. Eden usually had a small appetite.
Jaida wanted to ask that after dinner.
After finishing a glass of wine, Jasper picked up the wine bottle and filled their glasses with wine again.
When Eden saw that, she said, "Jasper, are you going to get my dad drunk? Drinking is harmful to the body. Besides, you still have to work tomorrow."
Zaiden smiled and said, "Eden, don't worry. My drinking capacity is good. I am drinking because I am happy tonight!"
Jasper also said, "Eden, you don't have to worry about me. My drinking capacity is also very good. You know that too. I have to drink a few more glasses because I am very happy tonight!"
As Jasper spoke, he picked up his glass and clinked it against Zaiden's.
Jasper and Zaiden smiled at each other and both of them took a sip.
Eden smiled helplessly and got some food for Kenny. She then lowered her head and ate slowly.
Jaida glanced at Eden and placed some of her favorite food in her bowl.
Jaida and Eden looked at each other and smiled. Eden also got Jaida some of her favorite food.
Eden's appetite was whetted by the warm atmosphere at the table and she ate more than usual.
Kenny went back to his room to rest after he was full!
When only four of them were left, Jaida asked, "Zaiden, how are things going with Bethany?"
Eden was stunned when she heard that and she listened quietly.
Jasper glanced at Eden. She was silent tonight and he knew she did not feel good deep down her heart.
Eden had returned to River City to seek vengeance but her kindness made her uncomfortable after what had happened to Bethany.
Zaiden glanced at Eden and said, "There is concrete evidence of Bethany being involved in the kidnapping case and the case has been opened for investigation.
Besides, her company is suspected of tax evasion. After investigation, she is suspected to be involved in many illegal things. The case has been opened for investigation. She has brought this on herself."
Eden knew that Bethany would end up like that. She raised her head, looked at Zaiden and said, "Dad, I want to see her!"
When Jaida heard that, she said, "Eden, aren't you deliberately making it worse for yourself if you go to see her?"
Eden said with a smile, "Mom, no matter what, I want to see her!"
Zaiden sighed slightly and said with a smile, "Eden, I will arrange it for you to meet Bethany if that’s what you want."
Eden smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad!"
Zaiden said in a doting tone, "Silly girl, it's been a long day and you are exhausted. Go and have a rest!"
Eden nodded and said, "Dad, Mom, Jasper, you should rest early as well."
After that, Eden turned around and went upstairs.
Jasper's heart ached immensely when he looked at Eden’s lonely back.
He could not understand why Eden didn't tell him that she was tired. He was by her side all along.
He wanted Eden to rely on him but...
Jasper smiled bitterly, stood up and said, "Uncle Calder, Aunt Jaida, I'm going to rest too."
Jaida said with a smile, "Jasper, go head. I will make breakfast for you tomorrow morning." ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"Okay!" Jasper left with a smile.
Zaiden stood up and said happily with a smile, "Jaida, let's go to rest!"
Jaida blushed and replied softly, "Yes!"
The Gienger family had undergone a radical change overnight.
The Gienger Group was acquired by the Alwynn Group the next morning and the Gienger family was ruined overnight. The news about Bethany's involvement in kidnapping and tax evasion was
reported on various platforms.
Everyone looked at Eden weirdly when she entered the Awlynn Group early in the morning.
The incident involving the Gerald and Gienger families made the employees of the company realize that Victor had treated Eden differently.
Eden turned a blind eye to the strange stares!
Victor and Anson were not around when she reached the company as they went to deal with the affairs related to the Gienger family.
Only Lucian and Amelia were around.
Eden attended a routine meeting as usual because she needed to know the daily work progress accurately.
After the meeting, everyone went out one by one except Haven.
Eden realized that she might have something to say to her so she asked Amelia to return to the office first.
After Amelia had gone out, Haven said, "Eden, you are indeed remarkable! Within a month, Victor had successively destroyed two companies because of you. I am curious to know what charm you have that causes him to treat you like this."
Her tone was filled with jealousy!
She fixed her gaze on Eden. She didn't expect Victor would be so ruthless that he didn't even give the Gienger family a chance.
Eden knew that Haven had stayed back because of this matter.
She looked at Haven coldly and said, "Haven, you are flattering me by saying that. I don't have any charm and I have no reason to make Victor do that for me!
You can ask Victor yourself if you really want to know the answer." "Hehe..." Haven sneered. "Cyan, you are indeed cruel to send your adoptive mother and sister to prison!"
Eden felt a slight pain in her heart when she heard that but put on a calm expression and said, "Haven, you have no right to comment on what kind of person I am! You don't know me well so don't look at me and shout at me like a mad dog."
Eden picked up the documents on the table and was about to leave after that.
She had never liked Haven and felt that she was a hypocrite after she overheard the conversation she had with Myra last time.
She liked people who were optimistic and honest.
Haven’s eyes were dark and her smile was sinister. She was not even close to a good person!
Haven would not let Eden go so easily.
She got up, blocked Eden's way, crossed her arms and looked at Eden coldly. "Eden, you really have a sharp tongue like Victor.
I can be insulted by anyone but not you. Apologize to me!"
Eden raised her head and looked at her calmly. "Haven, think about the things you have done before asking others to apologize to you."
Haven was unreasonable and was causing trouble!
Haven said angrily, "Cyan, isn't what I said true? Don't you dare to admit the things that you have done?" She looked at Eden with a sarcastic smile.
Eden asked, "Haven, do you dare to admit the things that you have done? For example, the discussion between Myra and you to secretly deal with me at the fire escape last time. Do you dare to admit that?"
Haven's face became grim when she heard that. "How do you know about that?"
