Maureen stood in front of Eden and looked at her. "Miss Bleu, can we talk?" Eden said that she needed time, so she hadn't come to her for the past few months.
During this period of time, Eden had become a well-known figure online and in the fashion world. She finally understood how talented Eden was, and why Jasper liked her so much.
Maureen also knew that Jasper was working overtime today and would not come to find her so soon.
Eden did not refuse her. After all, things had to be solved.
She pointed to the park in front of the villa and said, "Shall we go to the park?"
The children had already finished school, and it would not be convenient for them to talk at home.
"Sure!" Maureen smiled gratefully and turned to push her to the park.
When they arrived by the lake, Maureen stopped beside a bench, sat down, and then smiled. "Miss Bleu, congratulations!"
"Thank you!" Eden looked up at her, feeling that she had lost a lot of weight. She remembered that her face was still round the last time she saw her. But this time, she looked much thinner.
The evening breeze was cool and refreshing, making Eden feel very comfortable.
Her hair swept over her face, and she just sat quietly and looked at the lake in the distance indifferently.
She was indulging in the beautiful view.
Maureen followed her gaze and looked over. This place was very beautiful and very suitable for living. She moved her gaze back and looked at Eden's indifferent face. She felt as if Eden was shrouded in great sadness.
Hadn't she come out of what happened that time?
At that time, she was young and arrogant. When she was in college, she would not let go of any girls who gave gifts to Jasper.
Her family was rich, and no one dared to make trouble for her, so she became worse and worse.
When she met Eden, she only felt that Eden was not good enough for Jasper.
So she wanted to show it to her.
Thinking of this, Maureen said with a wry smile, "You must already know that I'm working in Jasper's company, right?"
Eden slowly drew her thoughts back, looked over at her, and said in a calm tone, "Abby told me already. You studied design before, so your work must be alright for you, isn't it?"
Maureen nodded and pursed her lips slightly. She lowered her head and smiled, but soon her face was covered with sadness. She almost cried. "The work is alright, but Jasper and I don't really get along with each other. I am just an evil person in his eyes, and he got really angry when he found out that I secretly applied for this job."
Looking at her upset face, Eden did not say anything.
After all, she was not the one who could help.
She still sat there quietly. After crying that night, she didn't bear it in mind anymore.
"I have forgiven you."
Her words made Maureen slightly stunned. She looked into Eden's eyes, knowing that she was being serious.
She instantly felt that there was an unspeakable emotion in her heart.
Eden's words made her feel so pleased and warm.
For the first time, she realized how much can some words mean to her.
"Thank you, Miss Bleu. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have treated you like that!" Maureen's voice was full of excitement and tears welled up in her eyes.
Eden smiled lightly and didn't say anything.
Everyone used to be very jealous of Maureen who had a rich and nice family.
Haven's company had a lot of problems recently. No one would like to cooperate with them, and the shareholders were making trouble every day. She really had no choice but to hide in Malcom's apartment and did not dare to come out.
At this moment, she was holding a wine glass in her hand, sitting on the balcony, looking out of the window with glassy eyes.
Her face was haggard, looking nothing like the arrogant and confident Haven in the past. Her skin was much darker, and her eyes were duller.
She couldn't understand how she had come to this point.
Eden already stood on the brilliant stage, but she fell into the bottomless abyss when Eden was at her peak.
Such an outcome was totally beyond her expectations.
Now she had become a person everyone hated, while Eden was standing on the stage and enjoying the honor that belonged to her.
But so what? In her opinion, Victor's death would definitely smash Eden into pieces. Therefore, she did not need to be so pessimistic.
Thinking of this, she picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and continued to sit there in a daze.
Malcom had been very busy recently. He had been staring at the computer all day long and didn't even have time to eat. Haven couldn't understand anything, neither did she want to disturb him, so she just sat alone in front of the window and looked out in a daze.
After dinner, Kenny brought his laptop to Eden's room. After helping his mother wash up, Kenny put his laptop on the small table and turned it on.
Eden looked at him and smiled. "Kenny, you must have been very tired these days."
Kenny shook his head, looking very determined. "Mom, I want to avenge Dad. Tonight, Malcom will definitely start the virus again and attack Alwynn Group. Then our chance will come."
In the past few days, he had been keeping an eye on Malcom.
Malcom was indeed a good hacker, and he didn't deny that.
