Chapter 727

She remembered that when she first saw him, he was cold and noble, as if he was the most powerful person in the world. He looked arrogant and lofty, so she naturally disliked him so much.

However, when he looked at her just now, he was so focused, affectionate and cautious. She seldom saw him like this.

The moment he stared at her and waited for his answer, she was his whole world.

If she said no, he would be dealt a severe blow.

Eden walked forward and did not talk to Victor. However, Victor's eyes were full of smiles as soon as he thought that she had promised to get the marriage certificate with him.

Eden went straight to the lake. She stood behind the banister and closed her eyes lightly. There happened to be a street lamp above her head. She was wearing a beige coat and her soft hair hung behind her shoulders. The evening breeze was blowing, and she looked very sweet when she closed her eyes slightly. She had perfect facial features, delicate face and gentle temperament. At this time, she was smiling faintly.

Victor looked at her and was suddenly in a trance. She was really impeccable, and she was the best girl he had ever met.

He walked behind her and hugged her from behind. At this moment, their faces were both good-

looking and they were well suited to each other.

"Eden, do you like this place?" Victor whispered in her ear.

Eden opened her eyes slowly, looked around with a smile and nodded slightly, "Yeah, it's very beautiful, especially at night. I feel as if I am living in a fairytale."

Victor looked down at her side face. He knew that she would like it, "Eden, you know what? I took fancy to this place ten years ago. I had been paying attention to it and prepared enough money.

When this land was developed, I bought it and built the glass villa according to your preferences."

Victor looked at her in his arms and suddenly felt that he had got all he wanted.

During this period of time, they were in a relationship. They ate, went shopping, watched movies and talked about the future together. Such a life was pleasant and leisurely.

Eden was so touched when she heard that, "Why do you like this place?" She suddenly felt that there might be another reason.

Victor looked at the lake water in the distance and said with a smile, "I brought you here by bicycle ten years ago, and we went for a row on the lake. At that time, this place was very remote and there were very few people here. Then many people flooded into River City. In the past ten years, this place was developed by real estate agent, so I got a chance. When I bought this place, I was very excited."

Eden turned around to look at him, "Victor, you..." Eden's bright eyes glistened with tears.

Victor looked at her, and there was still a gentle smile in his eyes. They were very close to each other. As long as he lowered his head slightly, he could kiss her lips.

Victor whispered, "Eden, that year, I didn't know what I lived for. I lost my mother and you, and my life was in desperation. It took me a long time to drag myself out of the morass of despair."

Saying this, Victor took out a silver tape-recorder from his pocket. This kind of small tape-recorder was very precious when they were young. It could record people's conversation and play tapes.

When Eden was a child, she liked to listen to children's songs.

Victor grinned and said, "Eden, would you like to hear your voice when you were young?"

Eden was surprised, and she said somewhat happily, "Is this a tape-recorder?"

Eden looked at the small tape-recorder in his hand curiously. She remembered that she had seen it when she was young, and her classmates would bring their taperecorders to school. At that time, she was envious. She liked to listen to the songs, but she was poor to buy one.

"Mm! I bought it with my own savings. You liked it very much." As Victor said this, he glanced at her and pressed a button.

Suddenly, a soft and sweet voice of a little girl sounded, "Victor, when you come back from school today, remember to bring me a strawberry flavored lollipop. My father doesn't allow me to eat candies. He's too bad!"

Immediately afterwards, a boy said, "Eden, your teeth will become ugly if you eat too many candies."

"Victor, you're lying to me again. Last time, you tricked me to eat a sour strawberry, and I still remember it. Today, you should buy me a lollipop as the compensation. Look at my teeth. They're white and good-looking. They're much prettier than yours."

"Alright, I'll bring you a lollipop. However, why did you lean over the window early in the morning today? Didn't I tell you not to do that? It's very dangerous."

"Humph! I am not afraid. Victor, I saw that Vincent went to your room and then he took your pocket money and your white shirt. Moreover, he put his own shirt on your bed. Does he want to frame you again?"

"Ha-ha... It turns out that you just wanted to see what he had done. Don't do that in the future. It's very dangerous beside the window."

"No, they often frame you. I'm not afraid."

The sound paused for a while.

Victor pressed the button again.

"Victor, let me tell you. Your stepmother, the old witch, spoke ill of you in front of Uncle Phillip today.

Guess what happened later? I splashed the toilet water on her. However, my mother saw it and then she beat me. My grandmother scolded my mom, and they had a quarrel. The atmosphere in my family is tense now. I won't go back to sleep at night. Victor, let me sleep with you."

Then there was no sound.

Victor took a look and patted it a few times, but it couldn't work anymore.

He looked at Eden and smiled, "Eden, it is a little old, and it's always in trouble. It should be completely broken now. But we haven't finished listening."

Victor lowered his head and fiddled with it.

Eden looked at him and didn't say anything. Her heart was full of bitterness.

When he lowered his head, the contour of his face was still cold. His black eyes were bright and brooding, and there was a hint of intense melancholy in his eyes. He was born to be noble and stern, and no one was qualified to desecrate him.

But his cold exterior hided a warm soul.

Eden took the initiative to hug him.

Victor's hand, which was fiddling with the tape-recorder, paused slightly. He looked down at her in his arms and smiled faintly, "Eden, what's wrong?" He asked softly.

"I miss you!" Eden said in a low voice.

It turned out that when they were young, they really stayed together every day, and he took care of her like an elder brother.

"Ha-ha..." Victor chuckled and held her in his arms.

“Fool, I'm right in front of you."

Eden shook her head slightly, "I don't know why, but I feel so sad after hearing the recording just now, and I miss you so much."
