Chapter 904
Gluey Love Between Us
Vincent and Adalynn were not Chairman Alwynnâs children.
Eden was greatly shocked, feeling her heart beat faster. She tried to calm down because she could not let Rebecca find her now.
Otherwise, she would be in trouble. Rebecca was an arrogant and aggressive woman. Her most valued thing was her pride and dignity. How could she do such a thing?
"Whatâs the rush, Alex? If I can get everything from the Alwynn family, plus your property, we can become the first richest family in River City. So, hold on. Moreover, Vin and Adalynn may not able to accept you so soon."
"We take our time and find a chance to introduce you to them. After you get familiar with each other, we can tell them the truth."
Vincent cared about Phillip very much. If he was told about the truth all of a sudden, he would definitely not be able to accept it and cause trouble.
Alex pretended to look resigned. The Alwynn family had a lot of property. He was now gradually getting involved in Rebeccaâs life, and after some time, he could get involved in the Alwynn family's business. As long as he played some tricks, the Alwynn family's wealth would be in his pockets.
"Iâd listen to you. I owe you and our children too much in the past years. I shouldnât have left you. I took all the responsibilities. I will compensate you for the rest of my life and will never leave you again."
Alex promised with a solemn face.
It was time for him to have a good life at his age. He did not want to waste his time indulging in alcohol and women.
Whenever he was alone, he felt lonely, and at night he even was scared, panic, and in despair. At such times, he would think of Rebecca, who had shared joy and suffering with him before. Since he couldn't forget her, he decided to come back and reconcile with her.
Hearing his words, Rebecca smiled happily. "Alex, I believe in you. You left that year because you had no choice."
She leaned on Alex with a happy face. Only at this moment did she feel that she was alive.
However, after so many years of wheeling-and-dealing, she couldnât trust others easily.
Whether or not she could trust Alex depended on his behaviors in the future.
She was different from the little girl in the past. At that time, she had nothing. But now, she was in a higher position than Alex.
Eden carefully saved the video, uploaded it to her personal homepage, and locked it. After doing these, she turned around and was about to leave.
However, she didn't notice that there was a can in front of her feet and kicked it accidentally, making a loud noise.
The noise disturbed Alex and Rebecca not far away.
Both of them were startled, especially Alex. There should be no one here.
"Whoâs there?" Rebecca's sharp voice came from behind.
Eden was scared and she quickly ran away.
Her car was on the other side. As long as she got in the car and drove away, she would be safe.
However, Rebecca was coming after her and found that it was Eden. Immediately, she ran back and called Alex. "Alex, get in the car! It's Eden. She heard us. Weâre all screwed if she tells Victor. We can't let her leave!"
She looked gloomy and her tone was full of monstrous anger.
She had thought that Alex had arranged everything, but things still went wrong.
Alex also understood that if their affair was spread out now, not only Rebecca, but also he, would be ruined.
"Hurry up, get in the car!" He shouted.
He had found Eden, and the cameras here were all off. He knew what to do.
After Rebecca got in the car, Alex immediately started the car and pressed the accelerator hard.
The car rushed toward Eden at a very fast speed.
Eden heard the sound and looked back, finding that they wanted to kill her. Her pupils constricted sharply and wanted to hide behind a car not far away from her.
But because of the baby in her belly, she didn't dare to run too fast.
"Stop, Alex!" Rebecca shouted.
Then, there was a squeal of brakes, which was horrifying, echoing in the underground parking lot.
After Rebecca got off the car, she chased after Eden. Eden was pregnant so she couldn't run for long.
Seeing Rebecca running towards her, Eden took out her mobile phone and called Victor.
Even if she could not survive today, she must let Victor know the truth.
However, Victor didn't answer.
She looked back, and Rebecca was close to her.
As she ran to the right, she made the second call. This time, the phone was answered. She was just about to speak when she was suddenly pushed from behind and fell to the pavement.
The speeding car hit her hard.
"Ah!!" Eden let out a miserable scream. She was hitten meters away, smashing fiercely into the ground. Blood gushed from her mouth, and her pupils rapidly dilated.
And Victor, who just picked up the phone and heard her scream, felt pain all over his body as if his heart was clenched.
He was talking about the transaction of the Century Building with Lucian and the boss of the air conditioner company.
Lucian noticed that Victor was trembling and his expression changed greatly, which he had never seen before.
"What happened?" He asked.
Lucianâs question brought Victor back to reality, but the scream and the crash seemed to reverberate in Victorâs ears.
He hung up the phone with a painful look and rushed out of the room, saying in a trembling voice, "Eden is in trouble."
Hearing this, Lucian quickly explained to the buyer and immediately ran out with Victor.
While Victor was running, he kept calling Eden but didnât get any response.
Great fear gripped him. He could only check Eden's handphone location on his phone but found that there was no signal.
"D*mn it!" He cursed angrily and ran faster toward the parking lot.
Lucian followed him closely.
In the parking lot, Rebecca walked up to Eden and looked down at her. "Eden, you ask for it. You can't blame me. You shouldnât have eavesdropped on me."
Eden was covered in blood and her eyes were bloodshot. Her consciousness became blurred, and the smiles of her children and Victor appeared in her mind. Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
"Sâ¦sorryâ¦" After she said the word vaguely, Eden fainted.
Seeing Eden passed out, Rebecca sneered and left without any hesitation.
