Chapter 28
Eden looked at Anson with curious eyes. She did not know why Anson suddenly asked about her address.
She rented her house under Jasper’s name in order to hide from the Gienger family.
She looked at Anson and answered with a smile, "I'm staying in my friend's house in Gate City."
Anson heard this and sighed internally. No wonder he could not find any information. It turned out that she was living in a friend's house.
No, Anson felt there was more to that. He felt that there was someone preventing him from getting Eden's information. Both Anson and Lucian were computer experts. It was impossible that they could not find any trace of her information at all. Something was attacking his computer program when he was searching for Eden’s information.
A glint flashed past Victor's eyes. He picked up the wine glass and chugged the wine.
Eden looked at him and frowned slightly. He did not know how to take care of himself even though he was already an adult.
He was drinking alcohol even though he had
stitches on his forehead.
At the same time, Amber Rivera, who was sitting next to Eden, noticed Eden's disapproving expression.
Amber pursed her lips slightly and swept her gaze across Eden. Amber wanted Mr. Alwynn's undivided attention.
She reached out to take her wine glass but "accidentally" spilled the red wine onto Eden's white shirt.
She pretended to be guilty and shouted, "Oh! Director Bleu, I'm really sorry! I didn't mean to do this."
Eden's white shirt was stained by the red wine, and the outline of her bra became slightly visible.
Victor shot a stern look at Amber when he saw that. Amber always caused trouble every time she attended a social gathering.
Victor frowned slightly upon looking at the faint outline of Eden's bra.
Someone suddenly opened the door when Victor got up.
Haven and her older brother, Delmont Clement walked in.
A hint of coldness flashed past Victor's eyes when he saw them.
Why were they here?
When Eden saw Haven, Eden suddenly remembered Haven’s intention when she came to the office this morning.
The two families were supposed to discuss the marriage between Victor and Haven, but Victor did not attend the dinner tonight. Instead, he attended Eden's welcome party.
So Haven came to the welcome party to look for him.
Eden felt a little guilty, as if she had broken up a potential marriage.
"Victor, I didn't expect to see you here." Haven smiled gently. She looked as perfect as she did in the morning when Eden saw her. Haven had the ability to capture people's attention with her beauty.
Haven looked hurt when she stared at Victor. He did not go to the Clement family's mansion tonight.
Instead, he went to a welcome party for a new employee.
Was she less important than this new employee to him?
The meeting between the two families did not happen.
Ever since Haven was adopted by the Clement family, Haven’s mother told her that if they could not find the Clement family's biological daughter, Haven would replace the biological daughter's place in marrying Victor. The two families were old friends. They only adopted her to secure the business dealings with the Alwynn family.
Now that she had grown up and understood everything, she was deeply attracted by this handsome man in front of her. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Victor was calm and independent. He had a naturally imposing and regal aura that no one could overlook.
Haven hoped that the so-called biological daughter of the Clement family was already dead. Haven hoped that Eden Clement would never come back.
Haven was really in love with Victor.
"Victor." Delmont greeted Victor with a smile.
"Hello." Victor nodded nonchalantly.
Delmont smiled and said, "Haven said that you're not free tonight. I didn't expect to see you here when you don't even have time to discuss your marriage with Haven."
Delmont sounded like he was blaming Victor.
Everyone in the private dining room suddenly became silent. They could feel the tension in the room.
