Abigail and Jasper went there in a hurry.
The police withheld the news from the public. Only they knew about Victor's accident.
No one dared to tell Graciella and Phillip. After all, Graciella was going to give birth.
Phillip suffered from hypertension, and he was in poor health, so they didn't want anything bad to happen to them.
At home, Eden was overwhelmed by deep sorrow.
The three children were in pain as well.
They went back to their own rooms and cried secretly.
Kenneth did not believe that Victor had died like that.
He got all the information from Lucian.
Then he called his master in person.
"Seven." His voice was always so proud and casual.
Kenneth said in a deep voice, "Master, my father had an accident. His car was controlled by a hacker and he fell into the sea. We haven't found him yet."
"What?" His master was very surprised.
"Seven, you must be very sad now, right? I was investigating the matter you told me yesterday, so I neglected the problem in your father's parking lot. Seven, cheer up. Find the murderer and take revenge for your father. I will try my best to help you."
His voice was no longer casual, but grieved and concerned.
"Thank you, master!" After Kenny hung up the phone, he glanced outside the window. It was already dark.
His mother was staying alone. What should she do?
He went downstairs on tiptoes. It was dark in the living room on the first floor. When he walked to the door of Eden's room, he heard her sobbing.
He gently pushed the door open and went in. Only a bedside lamp was turned on in the room. In front of the window, Eden was holding the photo of her and Victor and crying mournfully.
His heart ached so much that he bit his lower lip hard. Then he ran over and hugged Eden's weak body.
"Mom, don't cry. Dad will be fine. Since we haven't seen his dead body, there's a hope." He was not good at comforting others. He didn't know how to speak flowery language and readily spoke his mind.
He knew that Eden's heart ached severely.
But she had to hold on.
"Woo-Woo... Kenny, my heart hurts." Eden leaned against Kenny's shoulder painfully and closed her eyes tightly. Tears poured down her face and dropped on Kenny's thin shoulder and hair.
Kenny's arrival made her feel as if she had caught at a straw.
Kenny's face was full of tears, but he tried his best not to cry out loud.
Eden's heart was so painful as if it was being stabbed by a sharp knife. Her sorrow was so intense it seemed to be destroying her.
A wave of grief flooded her. She felt painful all over, and she was even uncomfortable while breathing.
Her world was completely dark.
She had fallen into the depth of despair and lost all her happiness. No vestige of light shed in her life.
"Mom, let's wait for dad to come back together, okay? Mom, don't cry, okay?" Kenny readily spoke his mind.
He had never seen Eden so helpless and painful.
Victor had had an accident, and he didn't want anything bad to happen to Eden.
For them, as long as Eden was fine, their world would be bright.
He wished that Victor could be safe and sound, so that their family could be warm and happy.
But things happened so fast that they were caught unprepared.
Listening to Kenny's words, Eden suppressed her sobs. She raised her head and opened her eyes, only to see that Kenny's small face was full of tears.
Kenneth pushed Eden's wheelchair to the bedside.
Eden slowly used some strength, got on the bed and lay down.
She patted the place next to her, "Kenny, just stay with me, okay?" She needed some power to support herself. Her heart was empty and painful, and she was about to have a nervous breakdown.
With Kenny by her side, she knew that she could hold on.
Kenneth nodded, climbed into bed slowly and lay down.
Then he covered Eden with the quilt.
"Mom, don't be afraid. I'll protect you all the time."
"I know!" Eden closed her eyes, but all she thought about was Victor's gentle expression and doting tone when he left her in the morning.
Why was he so cruel to her? After so many years of suffering, he finally had her by his side, but happiness was so short. They had a lot of things to do, and they had not yet completed their dreams together.
Such a cruel thing happened to them.
In the dark night, Eden's pale and weak face twisted in sorrow. It had been so long, but they hadn't found him. In fact, she had guessed the result.
But no matter how desperate she was, she would not believe that he had died. He must be alive and staying somewhere in this world.
Early the next morning, everyone was worried about Eden, and Abigail and Jasper came to accompany her early in the morning, for fear that she would hurt herself in extreme grief.
However, to everyone's surprise, Eden took care of the three children normally before they went to school.
With a mirthless heart, Jaida cooked porridge for them.
Eden did not say anything and ate a large bowl of porridge.
Jaida, Abigail, Jasper and Zaiden knew Eden very well.
The more she behaved like this, the more worried they became.
