Eden asked in surprise, "Uncle Calder, why are you here?"
Zaiden looked at Eden with some displeasure, "Eden, why didn''t you tell me have moved into a new
house. Besides, have you forgotten that I am a real estate tycoon and I can give you any house you
want?"
When Eden heard that, she said gratefully, "I''m sorry, Uncle Calder. I thought you went back to Gate
City."
"Hehe..." Zaidenughed somewhat self-mockingly.
"Eden, what is the point of staying there when you are not around? I will stay in River City in the
future to keep you allpany." His voice was loud and he seemed to do that so that the people in
the house could hear him.
Jaida, who was sitting inside, couldn''t help butugh. However, the smile was bitter and was filled
with guilt!
"Eden, I didn''t bring any gift but you will still let me in, right?" Zaiden looked at Eden with a smile.
Eden stepped aside quickly and said with a mischievous smile, "Uncle Calder, you''re really petty.
This is my first andst time to move into the house. Uncle Calder, don''t you feel ashamed toe
here empty-handed? You should at least bring a cake for each of my family members."
Eden was this mischievous when she was not at work.
The tradition here was eating cakes when someone moved into a new house.
Jaida had steamed some rice cakes forthat!
"Haha..." Zaidenughed happily.
He pointed to Eden''s nose and said in a doting tone, "You are just greedy for the cakes. How can
you be so petty? I would be happy if you are greedy for houses." Zaiden went inside as he spoke.
His every move was gentle and elegant!
Eden shook her head andughed. If she was greedy for houses, her ideal house would be
extremely expensive!
"Grandpa Zaiden!" Keh and Giada greeted him with a happy smile.
"Hey! Kenny, Gia, I haven''t seen you for a few days and you have grown taller." Zaiden looked at
the siblings with a smile.
"Mr. Calder!" Jasper also stood up and greeted him!
Zaiden looked at Jasper and said, "Jasper, you are here too."
"Yes! Mr. Calder, please take a seat!" Jasper stood up and gestured for him to sit down.
The position was right next to Jaida.
Zaiden nced at Jasper meaningfully. Jasper was indeed tactful.
Eden introduced Zofia to Zaiden and everyone sat down to eat together after that.
Zaiden nced at Jaida who had been keeping quiet beside him and asked with a smile, "What''s
wrong? You don’t want me to be here?"
Jaida nced sideways at him and said with a smile, "You have already sat in front of the table.
How could I drive you away?"
"Yo! That doesn’t sound like you!" Zaiden still looked at her with a smile and there was affection in
his eyes.
Jaida nced at him again and said angrily, "Eat. There are so many delicious food here. Why don’t
you shove them in your mouth?"
Zaiden took a look and realized that boiled fish, which was his favorite dish, was on the table. There
were not many chilies and no pepper in the dish. He smiled and asked, "Jaida, do you know that I''m
coming so you prepared my favorite fish? You didn''t even add parsley!"
Jaida knew that he didn''t like to eat pepper and parsley.
Jaida''s eyebrows furrowed charmingly when she heard Zaiden''s words. "Zaiden, you think too
much. I did not add parsley because there is no parsley in my house!"
Jasper couldn''t help butugh when he heard that. Jaida didn''t even blush when she lied. Jasper
clearly saw that there were parsleys in the refrigerator.
However, he would not be dumb enough to expose Jaida!
Jaida and Zaiden bickered with each other, making the atmosphere livelier.
Eden looked at both of them with clear obsidian eyes.
It seemed that Jaida had figured it out.
If she could ept Zaiden, she would be happier in the future!
Both Eden and Jasper knew that Zaiden had deep feelings for Jaida. However, they did not know
why they had not been together.
Eden often saw Jaida sighing sadly at night. Sometimes, she would look at the sky with a longing
expression on her face.
Eden did not know where Jaida was from because she had never asked her about her background.
Eden only knew that she was called Jaida and was from Gate City based on her identity card.
Giada chuckled and asked, "Grandpa Zaiden, are you going to live in River City in the future?"
"Yes!" Zaiden looked at her and said, "Gia, I wille to your house for dinner frequently in the
future. Is that okay?"
"Okay! Grandpa, don''t juste once a month. You have toe for more than two weeks each
month if you want to have free meals!" Giada''s soft and sweet voice could melt people''s heart. Her
innocent smile could also make people forget about their worries.
"Haha..." Zaidenughed happily. "How dare you say that Ie here for free meals?"
Jaida red at him and said, "Gia is right. Since you are here for free meals, you should onlye
here once a year!"
Zaiden was stunned for a moment and his smile faded away. "You are really cruel. A person is a
guest if he visits once a year. He would be here for free meals if he visits frequently every month."
"Hehe..." Eden couldn''t helpughing, "Uncle Calder, what Gia said is right then."
Zaiden gave her a sidelong nce and said, "Both of you are wicked and mischievous but I like it."
Zaiden''s voice was indescribably alluring. He was handsome even though he was middle-aged. He
didn''t look like he was almost fifty years old.
He looked gentle and elegant but his every move was particrly imposing.
Eden defended herself quickly, "Uncle Calder, I am not wicked. These two are the wicked ones."
Eden quickly pointed to Gia and Keh.
Giada and Keh felt like Eden involved them for no reason.
"Mom, I am not happy about you using Kenny and me to defend yourself." Giadained as
she looked at Eden with a pout.
Eden looked at Giada with a straight face. "What can you do if you are not happy about it? Giada,
the weak is no match for the strong."
Zofia smiled at the side and said, "Eden, judging from your thin figure, you will be no match for
Giada in a few years. Let''s see if the weak can defeat the strong then."
"That''s true!" Eden nodded in agreement.
Giada had a quirky temper. Eden would sometimes be shocked by her words!
Giada raised her eyebrows smugly at Eden and said,
"Mom, here. I have a surprise for you!"
Giada handed a bank card to Eden as she spoke.
Eden looked at the bank card that was handed to her in confusion.
She blinked her big eyes and nced at Jaida.
She asked, "Gia, where did you get this bank card?" "Hmph!" Giada rubbed her little nose
triumphantly. "Mom, both my paintings were sold at the painting exhibition. All the money is in this
card."
