Chapter 1100

After Lucian went downstairs, he called Amelia.

"Hello? Lucian." After getting off work, Amelia called Lucian by his name. At first, she was too embarrassed to call him by name. Later, Lucian used both hard and soft tactics, and she finally agreed to be on first-name terms with him.

She was very happy that Lucian loved her deeply.

Hearing that her voice was a bit depressed, Lucian frowned and asked, "Where are you?"

Amelia said, "I'm in Fashion Square."

Lucian asked, "Why don't you go home after work?"

Amelia said, "Has anyone stipulated that people must go home after work? In order not to go on a blind date, I came here. I have drunk two cups of juice, and I will go back after my mother goes to bed."

Lucian looked displeased, "Why does she ask you to go on a blind date again?"

Amelia said, "Alas! I won't go on a blind date anymore since you've admitted that you're my boyfriend. So, I came here to see someone else on a blind date."

Amelia felt happy when she said that, but there was a note of complaint in what she said. Lucian was busy every day.

Lucian was stunned.

"Wait for me. I will be there right now and take you to eat delicious food." After hanging up the phone, Lucian walked towards his car.

When Eden and Abigail finished their meal and came out of the restaurant, Jasper had arrived. He was there to pick them up.

"Alright, it seems that you have completely forgotten me. You didn't even bring me with you when you enjoyed delicious food here." Jasper complained. He took the wheelchair from Abigail and pushed Eden away.

Abigail patted him on the head, "I was dating with my best friend. Do you want to be a third wheel?"

Jasper looked at her with a unhappy face, "Abby, didn't you always bring me with you before?

Although I'm a third wheel, I won't affect you two at all."

"Fine. Next time, I'll bring you with us." Abigail looked at Jasper and smiled gently.

During this period of time, no matter how busy he was, he would find time to accompany Eden.

He was so infatuated with Eden, and Abigail couldn't do anything about it.

Jasper lowered his head and asked Eden, "Do you want to go home or go somewhere else for a walk?"

Eden smiled, "Let's go home first. My mom is not at home, and it's hard for dad and Anson to take care of four children."

Jasper nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's go home first."

He was still wearing a suit. It could be seen that he came straight from the company.

Eden looked up at him and asked, "Jasper, have you eaten yet?"

Jasper answered, "Not yet." He had been very busy in the company. As soon as he got off work, he rushed here.

He was afraid that Eden would be too sad and fill her mind with nonsense. After seeing her, he would be more at ease after he went back home.

Eden looked at him somewhat helplessly and complained, "I've told you that you have to eat on time no matter how busy you are. You must take good care of yourself."

"I see. I won't be like it again. I'll send you back first." Jasper grinned. Hearing her concerned tone, he felt very warm in heart.

Not far away, Maureen watched them as they left while talking and laughing. Staring at Jasper, she was heartbroken and somber. Jasper looked so relaxed and happy when he stayed with Eden.

No matter how busy he was, he would come to see Eden.

Eden was the most important person in his life.

But he didn't even want to give her a little bit of his love.

Would Jasper never forgive her just because she had made a mistake?

Everyone would make mistakes when they were young and insensible.

It had been so many years, and she felt that Jasper had been getting further and further away from her.

Four years ago, Jasper treated her pretty well. At least she could sit down to have a meal with him and chat with him.

At this time, she seemed to have been eliminated from his life. He didn't even want to say a single word to her.

When he faced her, his expression was always so indifferent and distant.

Talking to someone who understood her could relieve her tension.

Talking to someone who didn't understand her was boring.

Talking to someone who didn't like her was a kind of torture, and she understood it deeply. Every time she spoke to Jasper, she was very nervous. Listening to his cold voice, it was a kind of suffering.

His eyes were too apathetic and his voice was indifferent, which made her heart ache a lot.

She had her own pride. Sometimes she wanted to give up, but she felt that it was not worth it. Since she had come here, she should hold on.

Watching the three of them leave, Maureen turned around and left.

After walking a few steps, she felt that her face was a little cold. Only then did she realize that tears had run down her face unconsciously.

After returning home, Eden did not go to bed. She cooked some dumplings for Abigail and then chatted with Zaiden.

The four children went upstairs to play.

Eden smiled and said, "Dad, I've almost finished reading the books you gave me. I have known a lot about real estate."

Hearing this, Zaiden was shocked, "Eden, is that so? It hasn't been a long time."

Eden smiled and nodded.

Jasper, who was eating dumplings, raised his head and glanced at Zaiden, "Uncle Calder, when Eden studies hard, she can learn everything quickly and even I am inferior to her."

Eden smiled and said, "Dad, I've known about the conventional processes, like the process of real estate development, legal proceedings, the comprehensive establishment of domestic real estate, as well as the qualification approval and application for projects. What's more, I've learned how to choose projects and develop solutions. But I have to review the knowledge about engineering construction survey and tender management." Eden said with a smile. If she turned all the sorrow into impetus, she could learn faster.

Too many industries were related to real estate, so she had to learn for a long time.

Looking at her, Zaiden smiled with kindness and gratification. He knew how capable Eden was all the time. No matter what kind of problems Eden encountered in life, she could always solve them at ease.

This time, Victor's accident dealt her a great blow.

She did not become dejected. On the contrary, she became even more hardworking.

Only when she became more powerful could she solve all the problems.

"Eden, believe me. You'll weather the storm one day. Since we haven't found Victor, he must be alive. I believe your intuition. I haven't seen you marry him in a wedding dress, and I'll accompany you and wait for him to come back."

He knew that Eden had the same idea, and he believed that her intuition might be more accurate than anyone else's.

Eden smiled and nodded. At this time, she missed Victor very much.

"Dad, thank you for trusting me. I'm fine, and I know what I should do." Eden smiled and held back her tears.

Jasper looked at her with distress in heart. She pretended to be strong, because she didn't want them to worry about her.

But her heart was in pain.

She didn't know that they felt more mournful when they saw her like this.

"I'm full." Jasper ate the last dumpling.
