Gluey Love Between Us novel Chapter 1623

"I..." Paula had no idea how to explain. If she said that she did it for money, Eden would look down on her more. But at this time, the elevator door suddenly opened.

"I... have a lot of work to deal with, or you'll have to work overtime tonight." Paula stood up and ran out of the elevator.

Eden narrowed her eyes and looked at her back coldly, not following her out.

She walked out of the elevator and saw Thalia not far away.

"Thalia, check what Paula has done recently. She seems to be short of money. A few days ago, Dean told me that she moved to a very high-end department. Investigate whether she she bought or rented that house."

"Okay, Mrs. Alwynn. I will give you an answer afternoon." Thalia turned around and left.

Only then Eden return to her office.

Victor came back earlier than her. Seeing her come in, he smiled, "Eden, you're done with your work. Are you hungry? Let's have lunch."

Eden put the documents on the desk, "I have an appointment with Jasper. Have lunch on your own."

Victor's face darkened instantly. He knew that Jasper came back to make him feel depressed.

"Let Lucian accompany you for lunch." Eden could tell that he was dissatisfied.

"No, I'll eat in the office alone." When he had lunch together with Lucian, only the sound of eating could be heard. They had nothing to talk about. Instead, he would be angered by Lucian.

"It's up to you!" Eden said and began to pack up the things on the table.

Victor was speechless. Was she going to abandon him?

Looking at Eden's unconcerned face, Victor felt very bitter in heart.

He silently picked up his phone and ordered takeout. Eden left without saying a word to him, and his face darkened more.

Victor took his phone and dialed Dean's number.

On the first day of work in the new year, Dean was very busy.

Answering the phone call, he smiled and said, "Mr. Alwynn, happy new year!"

"It's already the eighth day of the new year! Let the bodyguards be more careful. Eden has gone out."

Dean swallowed and looked at the red dot on another computer. It was a dangerous place where there were people from the Simpson family.

"Mr. Alwynn... where did Mrs. Alwynn go?" Compared to his work, he felt that Eden was more important. If something bad happened to her, he had to spend more effort and be busier.

"River City Restaurant."

"Ah..." Dean was startled. Barrett's bodyguards were in River City Restaurant as well.

"What's wrong with you?" Victor's tone was very impatient, and he was annoyed to the extreme.

"It's okay, Mr. Alwynn. I'll have someone protect Mrs. Alwynn in secret."

"Okay!" Victor hung up the phone and sat on the sofa angrily.

At the same time, Dean ran out hurriedly with Thalia.

Why did Jasper want to meet Eden in River City Restaurant?

Victor didn't want to care much about their relationship. After all, Jasper really treated Eden as his family.

"Rat-a-tat..."

"Come in." Victor's expression returned to normal.

He got up and saw Lucian walking in with lunch boxes.

"She is more heartless to you. She had left you for more than ten years."

"Lucian, you're wrong. Is this the same thing? Eden was still young at that time." Victor argued. He got his retribution so fast. Why did he mention Amelia all of a sudden? Couldn't he just eat?

Eden arrived at River City Restaurant and went to the private box reserved by Jasper.

Jasper was still so handsome. He was wearing a blue suit, and there were wisps of hair on his forehead. He looked younger and more charming.

"Eden, here you are. Have a seat." Jasper pulled out a chair for her to sit down in a gentlemanly way.

Eden smiled, "Have you waited for a long time?"

"I arrived just now. I've ordered your favorite dishes. If you want to eat anything else, we can order again." Jasper sat down next to her.

"It's okay. I'm not very hungry. I'm just a little tired."

"On the first day of work in the new year, there are always a lot of things to deal with. You're indeed tired." Jasper poured her a cup of warm water thoughtfully.

Eden smiled gratefully, picked up the cup and took a sip, "I've been busy these days. I haven't asked you whether your work is going well in Lemmon City."

Jasper smiled slightly. His smile was always so pure and warm, just like the sunshine, "Not bad. I met those old clients every day. You know some of them. We've cooperated with each other for many years, and we know each other well."

"That's good!" Eden was relieved. She came out to chat with him.

The dishes were soon served. They ate while chatting happily.

When they were about to finish the meal, Jasper looked at her seriously, "Eden, I have heard about the Simpson family. Are you all right? If you need anything, just tell me." He asked her to come out because of this matter.

"I'm fine. Nothing bad has happened. Jasper, don't worry about me. I am safe now, and I can protect myself."

Eden didn't want him to worry about her all the time. Over the years, Jasper spent half of his time on her. She had been guilty, and she only hoped that he could get his happiness as soon as possible.
