Chapter 405
Victor also liked that lobster dish very much but not as much as Eden. Eden could eat it as a meal.
As Victor spoke, he put a bowl of chicken broth in front of Eden.
"Thank you!" Eden appreciated Victor’s attentiveness very much.
Victor didn't say anything. He took the disposable gloves at the side, picked up the iced lobster and peeled its shell.
He gazed at Eden with a smile while she lowered her head to drink the broth.
When he had peeled the lobster, he put it in Eden's bowl.
Eden, who was drinking the soup with her head down, was slightly stunned when she saw the delicious lobster meat. She raised her eyes quickly and looked at Victor with a complicated expression on her face. "Victor, eat it yourself. I'll peel the lobster myself." She was not pretentious and she felt that it would taste even better if she peeled it on her own!
Victor said, "Eden, I'm here. I'll peel it for you. All you need to do is to eat."
When Eden heard that, she smiled slightly and said, "Victor, you treat me so well. I might be addicted to it."
Will you be addicted to it? It would be great if you are addicted." Victor's hoarse voice was filled with joy but it was difficult for anyone to detect that.
Eden said, "Victor, your behavior has piqued my curiosity."
Victor put another peeled lobster into her bowl and looked at her with an evil smile. "Eden, you can let your thoughts run wild and I can't control that!" There was a deeper meaning to his words.
Eden's face turned red when she heard that. She did not let her thoughts run wild.
"I didn't." She argued somewhat evasively.
After that, she lowered her head and continued to drink her broth.
Victor smiled happily. He was happy that Eden could let her thoughts run wild.
She was free and unrestrained when she was with Jasper.
That was because the only thing that existed between them was friendship and kinship.
However, Eden would let her thoughts run wild in front of Victor. Did that mean he was close to succeeding?
At that moment, he felt that all the years of persistence and waiting had finally yielded some response.
Victor thought happily as he peeled the lobsters of each flavor and put all of them into Eden's bowl.
Eden did not say anything and raised her head to look at Victor who was peeling the lobsters seriously. His head was lowered and he had a cold expression on his face. However, his eyes were domineering and gentle.
Eden was observing Victor’s gorgeous and intriguing face when her phone rang suddenly.
She was slightly startled by it and sighed slightly. She really had a guilty conscience.
She took out her phone and saw that it was a video call from Ricky. She answered the call happily.
"Ricky, why haven't you slept yet?"
Victor stopped peeling the lobsters when he heard Ricky’s name and looked at Eden's smiling face. She had always been patient with her children.
Ricky smiled happily and said in a soft and sweet tone, "Mom, I finished work late today. I noticed that there is still time so I want to see you!"
"Oh, my baby has grown taller. I am very happy because you love me so much." Eden looked at
Ricky's delicate and beautiful features. He was handsome even though he was young.
Victor who was listening at the side, smiled faintly and his heart felt warm.
"Ricky, are you very busy recently?" Eden's heart ached for Ricky.
"Mom, I am almost done filming the movie. I will come back in about half a month. Mom, don't worry. Mommy Abigail takes good care of me."
Eden smiled and said, "With your Mommy Abigail taking care of you, I am at ease. Ricky, is Mommy Abigail unhappy recently? She took a long time to reply to my WhatsApp message."
Eden was also busy the past few days but she knew Abigail very well. Abigail seemed to be in a bad mood for the past few days!
Ricky thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I think it might be due to Uncle Joziah. I don't know what he did wrong. He came and apologized to Mommy for the past few days but she ignored him! Mommy is not happy."
Eden frowned slightly. Could there be a problem between Abigail and Joziah?
Victor narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard that. Was there really destiny between Anson and Abigail?
Anson was a jinx. Joziah indeed had other women behind Abigail’s back.
Eden smiled and said, "Ricky, you have to be more obedient. Don’t make Mommy Abigail unhappy."
"Mom, got it. Where are you?" Ricky looked at Eden’ s background curiously. Eden was not at home.
Eden smiled. She glanced at Victor and said, "Ricky, Uncle Alwynn and I are eating lobsters outside!"
Eden turned the phone to Victor as she spoke.
Victor looked at Ricky's adorable little face and greeted him with a smile. "Ricky."
"Uncle Alwynn, it's really you!" Ricky was a little excited.
"Yes!" Victor smiled slightly.
"Uncle Alwynn, I won't disturb you and Mom to dine anymore. I'll leave my mom to you. Uncle
Alwynn, you must bring my mom home safely!"
"Okay!" Victor was very happy to hear that. "Ricky, don't worry. I will send your mother home safely."
"Thank you, Uncle Alwynn."
Eden was taken aback.
Why did Ricky mean by saying he would leave her to Victor? Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
While Eden was in deep thoughts, Ricky said
happily, "Mom, eat more. See you later!"
He ended the video call quickly after that.
Eden could only smile helplessly. She could understand that Jaida wanted her to get married as soon as possible.
But why did Ricky have the same thoughts?
Victor suddenly asked, "Eden, have you found the school for Kenny, Ricky and Gia?"
Eden nodded slightly. "Yes. It's the primary school not far from my home. It's convenient for my mother to pick up the children! I have already helped them register."
Victor felt that the primary school was not very good.
He wanted his children to go to an aristocratic school but Eden would not agree to that.
What should he do?
School would start soon!
Victor wanted to solve the problem in the best way.
He asked, "Eden, have you ever thought about... letting them study in the best aristocratic school in River City?"
When Eden heard that, she said with a playful smile, "What’s the point of letting the children go there? So that they can compete with other children? Or for them to fight instead of study? Children who study there are sent in luxury cars by their parents. I don’t have a luxury car. Besides, the children's tuition fees are a big problem."
Eden smiled and said, "Victor, the salary that you have given me is not enough for me to send my children to an aristocratic school."
She did not have a child but had three children.
Gia wanted to learn painting, Kenny wanted to learn about computer programming whereas Ricky wanted to learn acting. A considerable amount of money would be needed for all of these.
