Chapter 401
Perhaps that would not lead to subsequent incidents, including the one which occurred today.
Eden ran out of the parking lot.
Dawson had been waiting for her outside. When he saw her running out crying, he shouted worriedly, "Eden, are you all right?"
Eden had just realized that Dawson was still waiting for her. She wiped away her tears and turned around to look at Dawson. She said, "Dawson, I want to be alone for a while. You can go back first. Thank you for your help today!"
Eden walked out after she had apologized to Dawson!
Dawson knew that she wasn't in a good mood so he didn't disturb her. Perhaps it was better for her to be alone!
He took out his mobile phone and called Zaiden. After reporting Eden’s situation to Zaiden, he drove back home.
The neon lights and street lamps made the street look colorful and many advertisements flashed across the skyscarpers. The flickering lights landed on Eden's face that was full of tears.
Eden had formed a world on her own and was immersed in grief.
Her lonely back looked extremely heart-breaking at the moment!
Eden cried and her tears blurred her eyes.
She had suffered a lot in life. She was framed by others and looked down upon when she was at the lowest point in her life. Apart from that, she was also criticized for having children before
marriage. All her pasts came flooding back at the moment.
Her most difficult time was when she was pregnant. At that time, her feet were so swollen that she couldn't even put on her shoes.
She was afraid to face the uncertain future.
However, Jaida, Abigail and Jasper had kept her company and helped her get through the darkest period of her life, thus allowing her to face the future with courage.
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, seven years had passed.
It had been seven years. She had been looking forward to this day but her heart was more painful than ever when the day finally arrived.
The evening breeze blew her soft hair. Her eyes were red and swollen due to crying and her thin body looked as though it could to be blown away at any moment.
She walked aimlessly and her tears never stopped flowing. She wanted to cry all she could that night. It would be a brand-new day for her when the sun rose the next day.
She had experienced too much. Sometimes she would ask herself in front of the mirror what the most difficult challenge in her life was.
She had now understood that the most difficult challenge in life was actually her own heart.
It didn’t matter if she was rich or had a plain and simple life. She would not lack anything as long as she was content and happy!
Eden exhaled deeply. She hoped that there would not be any traces of hatred left in her heart after tonight. She wanted to face the future with more confidence.
Eden's cell phone rang continuously but she did not answer her phone because she was immersed in grief.
Victor had been calling Eden. He had not seen her all day and wanted to hear her voice.
However, Eden did not answer his calls even though he had called her five to six times consecutively.
He was driving home at the moment. He dialed
Eden’s number when his car stopped at the intersection of the red traffic lights.
He raised his head and glanced at the red traffic lights. He was about to lower his head and call Eden again when he saw a familiar figure.
The distant light shone over and Victor saw a distraught Eden at the zebra crossing with tears streaming down her face.
Her eyes were unfocused and she was walking distraughtly. It seemed as though she had formed a world on her own and everything around her was virtual.
Victor was shocked. Why was Eden here?
Why was she crying?
Victor saw that the traffic lights were about to turn green but Eden was walking very slowly!
She didn’t realize that the cars around her had already started to move.
Victor was so anxious that he took his phone and got out of his car quickly as he ignored the sound of the horns behind him.
He called Anson and asked him to come over and deal with his car.
Anson who was drinking with Delmont and Buddy, received a phone call from Victor. He was confused because Victor had hung up before he could
speak.
All he heard was the sentence, "Go to the intersection of the traffic lights at Green Jade Road and deal with my car!"
Anson looked at his mobile phone in a daze. He felt that he was hallucinating but after checking his call record, he realized that Victor had really called him.
Victor left the car and ran towards Eden.
His car was parked on the main road. There was a long line of cars behind it and the sound of car horns were continuous.
Eden did not have any response even though she was in such a noisy environment and she continued to walk forward aimlessly.
Victor's heart ached so much that he couldn't breathe when he saw that!
At the same time, an electric car speeded towards the zebra crossing and was very close to Eden.
Eden did not seem to notice that and she continued walking in a daze!
Victor's chest tightened when he saw what was happening. He rushed towards Eden and pulled her into his arms at the most critical moment. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Eden finally came back to her senses when she was pulled by Victor. She raised her teary eyes and looked at Victor dumbfoundedly.
Victor’s pupils constricted and his heart throbbed violently when he saw Eden’s state. Her eyes were red and swollen, her face and lips were pale, and her gaze was blank and painful.
"Eden..." He called out to her softly and gazed at her deeply before he reached out his hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face.
Eden blinked her eyes and realized that Victor was the one who had pulled her away.
Victor looked at her deeply.
He asked softly, "Eden, what's wrong?" Eden instantly felt relaxed when his gentle and warm voice reached her bitter heart.
"Victor, how could it be you?" Her voice was hoarse and she was surprised. She had actually met Victor when she was experiencing her deepest pain.
Victor continued to gaze at her and whispered, "Eden, it's me. Tell me what has happened to you. Who bullied you? I'll help you get revenge!"
Eden’s mood became better when she heard that.
She blinked her blurry eyes slightly. She had been crying for so long that her upper and lower eyelashes seemed to be stuck together, causing her eyes to feel very uncomfortable.
She lowered her head slightly and bit her lip hard.
No one could control what happened to them in life. How could life be smooth?
The sound of the car horns continued. Eden glanced behind her and saw that Victor’s car was parked at the intersection of the red traffic lights.
She was a little agitated by the sound of the car horns around her.
She looked at Victor and said, "Victor, are you crazy? Why did you park the car there? Go back quickly. Look at how congested the traffic is."
Victor said, "Eden, I don't care. Tell me who bullied you."
Eden wanted to look at Victor but her eyes were very uncomfortable. She lowered her head, rubbed her eyes and said, "Victor, leave me alone. Quickly drive your car away!"
