Chapter 608

Jasper looked at the unfamiliar woman in front of him and frowned slightly. His expression turned impatient, "Hello." The cold greeting made by his thin lips revealed his indifference. His behavior was completely different from before. He was so cold that no one dared to approach him.

He always laughed blithely in front of Eden because, to him, Eden's smile was as warm as the sunshine. Whenever he saw her smile, he felt happiness and warmth rose from the bottom of his heart.

Her smile was power, helping him clean the dust in his heart, and casting deep inside.

He could not help but look at Eden. He saw the middle-aged man who was getting closer and closer to her.

Paulina looked at him and suddenly blinked. She said with a chuckle, "Mr. Joye, congratulations on your development in River City! I heard that your company has been working very well. I believe the Joye Group will be at its peak soon."

"Thanks." Jasper replied with one word indifferently and was about to leave. Just as he moved his feet, Paulina blocked the way again.

Jasper's face turned disappointed instantly.

Paulina hooked her lips and said, "Mr. Joye, let's have a drink."

She waved to the waiter not far away.

The waiter immediately came over with the red wine on the tray.

Paulina picked up two glasses and handed one glass to Jasper with a charming smile. However, Jasper did not take it.

Instead, he still looked in the direction Eden was in quietly.

Eden was chatting with Abigail happily and ignored her surroundings.

She felt a dark shadow enveloping her. She thought that it was Victor at first, but she smelt an unpleasant smell. Eden lifted her head and looked at the person who had arrived. She saw a big-

bellied middle- aged man was strangely smiling at her. His long narrow eyes were filled with evil.

Eden suddenly had a bad feeling in mind. Why didn't Victor come back?

"Beauty, you are so attractive!" The middle-aged man was like a hungry beast, revealing his desire for Eden directly.

Eden's eyes darkened. She looked at the man alertly, her hand holding the phone tightly. Her white knuckles showed her uneasy at the moment.

She suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice, "Excuse me, sir."

The look in the man's eyes made her very disgusted. How could such a man appear at the banquet? She frowned and was wary of the man.

"Ha! You're unique. Don't you know who I am? Are you going to join me tonight, beauty?" The dreadful man looked at Eden drunkenly and reached out his fat and swollen fingers to wipe Eden's face.

Eden knew that the people at the banquet tonight were either rich or noble. The identity of the man in front of her was not ordinary, but...

She narrowed her eyes at the man's hand that was reaching towards her and quickly dodged it.

The man seemed very upset. He shot out his short and thick fingers quickly again. Eden dodged many times.

Jasper, who was entangled by Paulina, saw this scene. His handsome face was instantly filled with rage, and he was about to rush over angrily.

The wine glass in Paulina's hand was knocked to the ground by him.

The glass fell on the ground but didn't crack. It bounced a few times on the ground and rolled to the corner.

But the red wine on Jasper's clothes. Seeing the red wine dripping down on his expensive suit, his face instantly became gloomy.

"Oh! I'm so sorry. I didn't hold the glass. Did you hurt?" Paulina said guiltily, but her eyes glanced at Jasper cunningly.

Jasper had no mood to care about his clothes. He was about to run to Eden again, just when, the man gave out an extremely painful scream, which attracted the attention of everyone present.

The man kept annoying Eden. So she caught his finger in an instant and break it with her all force.

The man cried out shrilly.

"Ahhh... What the f*ck!'' Clenching his fingers tightly, the man screamed with his eyes closed.

Buddy and Delmont, who had just arrived, were looking for their younger sister.

They heard this sound and quickly went to the place where the scream came from.

As for Victor, at this time, he was entangled by Haven and Vincent. They talked on and on and did not allow Victor to leave.

Hearing the bloodcurdling scream, Victor's heart sank. It was from Eden's direction.

Victor quickly turned around and was about to leave, but Vincent blocked his way, "Victor, it's not easy for us to get together. Why don't we have a drink?" Vincent smiled weirdly. He was in a bad mood the whole day, so he ridiculed his brother to make himself feel better.

"Victor, you haven't come home for dinner for a long time. Why don't we have dinner together at home someday?" Haven also said at his side.

She knew that Victor hated to go back to the old house and see the Evenbrace family.

"Get out of my way!" Victor pushed Vincent but was grabbed by him again.

Victor looked back at Vincent. His eyes were like ice blades, shooting at him. Then, Victor strode away.

Seeing the horrible look, Vincent loosed his hands unconsciously.

Victor stared at him coldly and said angrily, "Vincent, I can bankrupt the Jotham Alwynn Group if I want. You can have a try if you don’t believe."

His steady and sharp attitude stunned Vincent. This was the first time that he had felt Victor's deep-

rooted seriousness and ruthlessness.

However, Haven looked at Victor with a sneer, "Go. Go and see your lover being teased."

Paulina was really resolute. She did what she wanted to do without any hesitation.

Haven smiled and said to Vincent, "Let's enjoy the show."

Then, without looking at Vincent's stunning look, she slowly walked towards Eden.

"But, what was the scream just now?" she wondered in mind.

But she didn’t think much.

At the same time, Eden was surrounded by people.

Seeing the increasing number of people around him, the middle-aged man lowered his voice.

His face suddenly changed and pointed angrily at Eden, "You shameless woman! I ignored your seduction, then you beat me for that?!"
