Chapter 425


    Victor and Lucian changed their shoes at the entrance of the vi.


    The entire vi was transformed into a sparkling spectacle the moment Victor turned on the lights!


    Lucian nced at him and said nothing!


    He walked towards the sofa in the living room, sat on it and tilted his head back!


    There was a trace of tiredness on his face!


    Victor sat across him with a tired expression on his face.


    He felt very tired because he had not slept well the past few nights.


    He crossed his legs elegantly and exuded an imposing aura!


    There was no smile on his well-defined face.


    Lucian nced at him and asked, "Victor, you can''t go on like this."


    After a while, Victor said in a low voice, "I know."


    Lucian nced at him and asked after hesitating for a moment, "What do you n to do? If you go


    on like this..." Lucian wanted to speak but stopped on second thoughts.


    He suddenly said in a serious tone, "What else can you do if you don''t go on like this? Reba


    knows that you cared for Eden now. I''m afraid that she would not be a sitting duck.


    Moreover, she holds 50% of the shares of the Jotham Alwynn Group. If we take action now, we


    would be giving the entire Jotham Alwynn Group to her.


    I know thepany was your mother''s heart and soul but if we continue to tolerate Reba, I''m


    afraid that things will go beyond our control."


    Lucian understood what Victor was worried about.


    "Humph!" Victor snorted coldly.


    He straightened up, got up and walked towards the refrigerator in the kitchen.


    After a while, he brought back two bottles of mineral water and ced one in front of Lucian.


    He opened one bottle and drank half a bottle before saying, "I''ve already used other names to buy


    the stocks of the Jotham Alwynn Group.


    Besides, we would be able to get into the market afterunching our new products for this season. I


    want the clothes designed by Eden to be marketed abroad. Her childhood dream is to be an


    outstanding designer.


    Therefore, I can’t allow anything to go wrong with


    the autumn clothing this time."


    Lucian looked at him deeply, unscrewed the cap of the bottle and took a sip of water.


    He said in a t tone, "I know what you''re thinking! However, the more you care about Eden, the


    more Reba will have something against you!"


    Victor smiled nonchntly. He raised his head and looked at Lucian oddly. "Lucian, Eden has


    already suffered a lot whether I care for her or not.


    I have the same thoughts as you previously but I was wrong. It doesn’t matter if I care for her or not.


    She will still suffer because of me.


    Lucian looked at him quietly and asked, "So, what are you going to do?"


    Victor nced sharply outside the window with sorrow in his eyes. "I''m trying to think of a way. You


    also know that it''s fine to tell Eden about her identity but how can I make her ept me for what


    happened that night seven years ago?


    That''s why I''ve wanted to wait a little longer. I''ll tell her everything once she has developed feelings


    for me. That way, she won''t leave me!"


    He was really afraid that Eden would leave him after everything was revealed.


    He could not afford to suffer the pain of losing Eden again!


    He had really suffered enough in the past few years. He had felt the pain of losing Eden before and


    he did not want to feel that again.


    Lucian understood how Victor felt!


    After all, Lucian, Anson and Adonis had seen Victor living a very painful life for the past few years!


    Victor would never live alone in this expensive three-story vi.


    Anson had been staying in the vi with him ever since he bought the ce.


    If Anson wasn''t around, either Lucian or Adonis woulde over and apany him.


    He was just afraid of loneliness!


    In order to get information about Jaida, he had endured for more than a decade over the years!


    It was the first time he acted that way tonight.


    Lucian stared at him tiredly and said in a hoarse voice, "Go to sleep if you''re tired. I''ll sleep on the


    sofa."


    Victor frowned at him.


    He said, "I''ve always kept the room next to Anson’s for you. Go and sleep in the room. You''ll feel


    morefortable if you sleep there."


    As he spoke, he got up and went upstairs!

    Lucian looked at his back faintly!


    He got up and headed to the room. It would be unsightly to sleep on the sofa. Victor would see


    Lucian’s indecent side if he slept there.


    Lucian and Victor had the same temperament. However, a person could use tea and coffee to


    describe them.


    Victor could bepared to a cup of coffee with strong aroma.


    On the other hand, Lucian was like a cup of light refreshing tea!


    However, some people suffered a lot in their lives.


    For example, Victor had lost his happiness and fueled his hatred while he waited bitterly for Eden!


    Lucian would sometimes wonder why God had treated Victor unfairly.


    However, nobody was spared by God.


    Things that were meant for a person would not slip away no matter how many obstacles he


    encountered!


    Victor was not lost and had found the path he wanted to take!


    The night was very quiet!


    Victor’s painful sleep talking could be heard from time to time in his room!


    The next day was the weekend. That was the first time that Eden wanted to sleep in.


    She didn''t get up and slept until ten o''clock.


    "Mom." Gia knocked on the door from outside.


    Eden rolled over, looked at the door and said, "Gia,e in."


    The door opened and Gia walked in with a smile.


    When Eden saw that, she couldn’t help but wonder what Gia was up to.


    She asked with a smile, "Look at how sly your smile is. Is there something wrong again?"


    "Hehe..." Giaughed dryly. "Mom, you really know me so well. Kenny and I want to go to the library


    again today but I don''t have money. Mom, give me some money."


    Eden sat up from the bed and asked, "Gia, are you going there again today?"


    Gia rolled her big watery eyes and walked a few steps closer to Eden. "Mom, I’m going. I haven''t


    finished reading the book I readst time. However, I can finish it during this holiday."


    Eden nodded slightly. She was very supportive of her children reading books!


    She pointed to the handbag on the dressing table and said, "Gia, there is some cash in the bag. Go


    and get it yourself."


    Gia nced at Eden’s handbag and walked over. "Mom, I can go and get it on my own since your


    leg is injured. Mom, are you feeling better today?"


    Eden''s tone was soft as she said, "I don''t know. I''m lying on the bed right now. I don''t know if I''m


    better or not?"


    Gia shook her head helplessly and walked as she said, "Mom, you are an adult but you are still so


    careless when you walk.


    Look at how cautious I am when I walk. My legs would get hurt because I wear canvas shoes when


    I go out.


    Eden smiled and did not say anything.


    Giada turned around and said, "Mom, I took two hundred dors because I need to buy some


    books. Kenny isn’t buying any books. He would just be reading them in the bookstore. I can''t


    understand the books that he reads. They are all rted toputer knowledge.


    I really don''t know how his brain works. He is able to understand the books that are veryplex."
