"Victor, do you still remember the dead cat?"
Victor nodded with a cold face and said patiently, "Yes."
Brian sighed, "It wasn't the Simpson family who did it. It was someone else. If my guess is right, it is the one who sent Eden the dead cat last time."
Victor frowned and took a few steps forward irritably.
"Don't tell me that you haven't found out anything."
Brian was speechless for a while before answering, "You're right. I got all the surveillance videos around, but your house is in a dead angle. I really didn't find out anything."
Victor pinched the space between his eyebrows, looking tireder, "Continue to investigate. Don't give up any clues."
Brian replied, "I see. Maybe you can ask Eden if she knows someone who is good at computer and knows her well."
Looking at Eden who was sleeping soundly on the hospital bed, Victor shook his head and said, "I know everyone around her. Among them, you and Lucian have the best computer skills."
Brian said, "Victor, what do you mean?"
"Alright, continue to investigate. Inform me immediately if there is any news." Victor did not explain and hung up the phone.
He walked back to the bed and put his hand on Eden's forehead. The fever was almost gone.
He sat down on the stool to rest, thinking about Brian's words.
Eden only had a few friends, and he knew all of them. Since it was not the Simpson family, who would it be?
Victor felt a little uncomfortable, rested his head on his hand and slept.
When Eden woke up again, it was light outside. The bright sunshine came in through the window and covered the hospital bed. The ward glowed red. She closed her eyes in discomfort, and then she saw Victor sleeping by the bed.
She raised her hand and felt that she had regained some strength. She was no longer as weak as yesterday.
"Victor." Eden called him. Victor woke up immediately.
"Eden, are you awake? How do you feel how?" His voice was hoarse and a little nervous.
Eden shook her head slightly, "I'm all right now, but I'm still very sleepy."
She moved aside and whispered, "Come to the bed."
He would feel uncomfortable by sleeping like that, but she was still very drowsy.
Victor shook his head and said, "I'm not very sleepy. You can rest for a while."
Eden nodded. In fact, she still wanted to sleep.
She turned over, closed her eyes and began to sleep again.
Victor got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
This was a VIP ward, and there was everything they needed.
After coming out, he called Dean and asked him to deliver some food here.
Then he stood in front of the window and looked out irritably. The warm sunshine in the morning made him lazy and comfortable.
Victor moved a chair to the window, basking in the sun while dealing with his work.
At past eleven o'clock in the morning, Eden woke up. Smelling the familiar disinfectant, she realized she was still in the hospital.
She slowly sat up from bed. When she turned her head, she saw Victor who was sitting under the sun.
He seemed to have lost some weight recently. Bathing in sunshine, he was like a prince in the movie. He was so handsome that she could not take her eyes off him.
He slightly lowered his head, and she could see his tired eyes under his curly and long eyelashes.
Eden's heart ached. He stayed with her all night, didn't he?
As long as he was by her side, she could always sleep soundly.
Victor was afraid that Eden would have a fever again, so he got some medicine for her. Then he took Eden to the glass villa.
Eden was stunned when she saw the white glass villa in front of her, "Victor, have we moved again?"
Victor nodded, "You are afraid of snakes. If we go back and live there, you will be scared. This villa has been cleaned up."
Except for Brian, Dean and Thalia, he didn't tell anyone else that he had moved.
Eden knew that he was right. She closed her eyes and did not dare to think about what had happened last night.
Victor unbuckled his seat belt, got off the car and opened the door next to the passenger seat. Then he unbuckled her seat belt and carried her out of the car.
He was wondering when she could forget this terrible nightmare.
When Eden was a child, she was frightened by a snake. At that time, he was beside her. On a weekend, he rode a bicycle and took her to the border of the city to pick strawberries. A snake suddenly appeared in the farm. She was so scared that she fainted on the spot.
"Victor, put me down. I can walk on my own."
"No, we'll arrive soon. The password is my birthday."
"Alright, I see." Eden smiled and kissed him on the face.
When they reached the door, Victor held her in his arms, while she typed the password. The house was well lighted. The weather was good that day, and sunlight flooded into every corner in the house.
The walls and floor were white. The murals on the wall and the surrounding environment complemented each other.
She liked this style.
"Victor, put me on the sofa and let me bask in the sun." Eden kissed Victor's face several times excitedly.
Victor put her on the sofa with satisfaction, bowed his head and reminded her, "Don't stay under the sun for too long. You're still sick."
Eden looked at him, "What are you going to do?"
