Eden wanted to see if Victor had hung up the phone. She raised her head, only to see that Victor was looking at her angrily. If he could kill people with his emotionless eyes, she would have been a corpse.
Only then did Eden realize that he was jealous because he saw Johnny.
"Eden, who is he?" Victor suppressed his anger and pointed at Johnny's back not far away.
His face darkened to the extreme!
"A friend I knew yesterday. Do you have any objections?" Eden narrowed her eyes and looked at him unhappily.
Didn't he even want her to make a friend? However, she really liked Johnny's songs. They had exchanged their phone numbers just now. When Johnny held a concert, she would attend it.
Victor was depressed. He did have great objections!
Victor wanted to warn Eden to stay away from the young man.
But Irving's words suddenly came to his mind. "Since you're so bossy, Eden will leave you sooner or later."
"No, calm down! Victor, you can't be angry. If you quarrel with Eden, not only Irving, but also the young man will take advantage of it."
"Why take it so seriously?" He said to himself in heart.
"No, I have no objection." Victor said in a stiff and cold tone very reluctantly. He kept shaking his head, but the expression on his face was upset.
Eden was surprised. Was he really Victor?
If it was in the past, he would have been angry.
"Let's go back. I'm hungry." Eden walked forward thoughtfully.
Victor immediately caught up with her and took her hand in an overbearing way.
He looked at the direction where Johnny left. Who was that man? Couldn't he tell that Eden was married and she was a mother of three children?
Victor was exasperated, but he didn't dare to lose his temper before her.
Victor asked the stuff to send food to his room, while Thalia and Paula ate in the hall outside.
Watching Thalia eating the clam noodles with her head lowered, Paula said with disgust on her face, "There are many kinds of noodles in River City. Why do you have to eat noodles here? Won't you get tired of noodles?"
"Only people who get skimpy pay eat such cheap noodles."
"Eden was too poor in the past. She didn't even eat noodles, and she only ate steamed buns, because steamed buns are stodgy."
Thalia looked up at her casually, "What a pity. You ate better than Mrs. Alwynn, but now her life is better than yours."
"You..." Thalia's words touched Paula's sore spot. She glared at Thalia coldly.
"Humph! Thalia, you are an orphan that no one wants, right? You may never forget the feelings of being abandoned in the rest of your life, right?" Paula looked at her with a sneer.
Thalia's face suddenly changed, and his eyes gradually turned indifferent.
As an orphan, this was indeed her most sensitive spot. She would never forget the pain of being abandoned by her parents.
She could not get the love of her parents. Whenever she saw children who stayed with their parents, she was very envious.
That was the greatest pain in her heart.
Before she was taken to Chaosfield Society by Victor, she felt that her life was dark and hopeless, and she didn't know what her future would be like.
However, her sadness only lasted only for a moment.
Thalia knew that Paula angered her deliberately.
She tried her best to make advances, and she learned to face difficulties, changes and what might happen at any time.
Eden stopped after eating a whole plate of shrimps.
She took the wet tissue, wiped her hands and touched her full belly, wanting to go out for a walk.
As soon as she got up, Victor followed her, "Where are we going?" His low and mellow voice made Eden stunned.
"You're so boring. If you're jealous, just show it. Don't you know how annoying your weird behavior is?" Eden didn't want to talk to him. She simply walked around the room.
"I'm not jealous." Victor refused to admit it. His wish was simple. She could only smile at him, and she couldn't treat other men so enthusiastically.
But he knew that something like this would happen again in the future.
Looking at her slender back, he thought gloomily, "Because she's so beautiful."
Other men could see how charming she was as well.
"Do you still want to visit the shops?" Victor compromised, and his tone softened unconsciously.
"Yeah, I will exercise for a while." Eden continued to walk around.
Victor had come here, and she failed to carry out her plan.
While eating the noodles, she received a message from Aro and was told that Victor had caught two men in the basement. She immediately understood everything.
Victor did everything without telling her.
Fortunately, Zaiden asked Aro and Anthony to help her when he left. Otherwise, she would not know what Victor had done.
After Eden had a rest, they went to the bustling downtown area. Eden owned three shops in the prime location. Grandma Clement felt distressed for her, and the shops she gave her were all valuable.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Victor said, "Eden, I have an appointment with Mr. Klein later. Just go with me."
