"Victor, I'll hang up first. Everything is going well on my side. Abigail is here. I hope everything goes well with your visit to Eden's place tonight." Anson quickly hung up the phone after that.
He told Victor that so that Victor could accompany Eden with a peace of mind and would not be afraid of being disturbed.
Anson looked at Abigail, who was sitting not far away from him. She was charming and unfamiliar to him at the same time. It seemed as though he had just got to know her.
Under his investigation, Abigail was an outstanding agent. She had helped many male idols to become famous. Her focus at the moment was on Henrick.
Furthermore, she was well received by the nation and also an agent with an excellent reputation.
Her parents had moved abroad but she and Jasper had stayed in the country to develop themselves.
People's eyes would lit up whenever they mentioned Abigail Joye in the entertainment circle in Gate City.
Anson had been fatally attracted to such a woman.
He sat in a corner and held a glass of red wine in his hand. There was a smile on his handsome face and
his deep eyes followed Abigail's every move.
Abigail still had a charming smile on her face.
Anson knew the rules of the game very well. Abigail would definitely get drunk tonight!
Abigail had to sign the contract tonight because she wanted to stay at River City to accompany Eden. Anson recognized Abigail’s client. He was Alfie Stone, the young master of the Stone Group.
He was a lascivious man and he would not sign the contract easily.
Abigail, who had been smiling all the time, felt that there was a pair of eyes looking at her in the dark. She looked around but only saw the bright neon lights outside the window and a starless night sky.
Anson's location was secluded. He could see Abigail's every move but Abigail could not see him.
Abigail turned around and focused all her attention on the handsome Alfie with well-defined facial features.
Alfie frequently toasted Abigail and she did not refuse.
Alfie's gaze was sharp and dark and he constantly looked at Abigail with a smile.
Anson, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't wait to go out and dig out Alfie's eyes. He felt like venting his anger by throwing Alfie’s eyes to the ground and stomping on them.
However, if he rushed out now, the wine that Abigail drank previously would be in vain.
The tremendous efforts that Abigail, Jasper and Eden put into their work was shocking.
This was also what Anson had found out throughout his investigation.
In the meantime, Victor, he arrived at the fifth floor happily. He looked at the door in annoyance because it was blocking him to meet Eden.
The wounds in his heart seemed to have gradually healed these few days.
Before this, no matter how hard he tried, the pain in his heart would clutch on him tightly and cause him to suffocate.
Eden's return was a form of salvation for him at the moment.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Eden, who was making dumplings, heard a knock on the door suddenly and her heart skipped a beat.
She glanced at Kenny, who was reading a book on the sofa and said. "Kenny, open the door."
"Okay, Mom!" Kenneth jumped off the sofa and opened the door. He frowned slightly when he saw Victor as soon as he opened the door. "Uncle Victor,
why are you here?"
Victor smiled calmly and said, "Kenny, I was passing by so I came to see you guys."
"You were passing by..." Kenneth did not believe him.
"That's right. I was just passing by." Victor's answer was very straightforward and his innate noble aura was alluring.
Kenneth said calmly, "Come in!"
She could not be as youthful and innocent as before in her present situation. She would only show her innocent smile to her acquaintances.
"Have you had dinner?" She asked faintly before she lowered her head to make the dumplings.
The corner of Victor's mouth curled upwards. He was waiting for her to ask him that.
"Eden, I haven't eaten yet!" He came here on purpose to eat with Eden.
Anson was not at home and he would only be greeted by silence and loneliness if he returned to the villa alone.
"Oh!" Eden lowered her head as she spoke. She gathered all the emotions in her eyes and said, "You can chat with Ricky and Kenny first. We'll eat dumplings today. I'll make a few more before I put them into the pot." Her tone was lukewarm but it was very soothing.
"Okay!" Victor looked at her and smiled evilly.
He could tell that she was not happy with his presencejudging from the dispirited expression on her face.
Victor felt bitter instantly. He looked at Eden, who was lowering her head, and his gaze became dull.
Had Eden really forgotten him?
He had always hoped that she could remember him one day.
Henrick shouted with a smile, "Uncle Victor, come and sit here."
Victor came to his senses suddenly and turned to look at Henrick. "Ricky, I'll be right there."
Victor looked at Eden again and saw that she was still lowering her head. He did not say anything and went over to sit in between his two sons.
"Uncle Victor, have some tea!" Henrick put the brewed tea in front of Victor.
"Thank you, Ricky." Victor's smile had a hint of imperceptible doting in it. His two sons were very sensible.
His heart was filled with happiness, gratitude, and sweetness the moment he saw Eden, Kenny, and Ricky.
