Chapter 984

The next morning, Victor finally went to work after Eden’s persuasion.

Victor had decided to work at home, but Eden insisted that he should go to the company in person.

He seldom went to the company in the past six months and there must be a lot of things for him to deal with.

Victor was not able to change her mind, so he could only promise to go to the company.

When Victor was at work, Eden checked the new designs on Victor’s computer, and she liked them very much.

Then she learned some knowledge about real estate from Zaiden. After having lunch with the family, Abby took her and the three kids shopping.

The kids were excited, chatting and laughing all the way.

When Abigail was driving, Eden glanced at her, thinking of what had happened last night, and asked, "Abby, are you okay?"

Abigail knew what Eden was asking, so she smiled and answered, "Better than okay. I decided not to make things difficult for myself. Anson is a tough man, but also stubborn. Maybe it’s better not to push him."

Eden smiled resignedly and said, "Sensitive people tend to overthink. Soft-hearted people always ask for trouble. Anson is a good man. I think if his legs were not injured, you two might get married."

Abigail nodded without any denial. "To be honest, I had considered marrying him before he got hurt.

He was in the car accident because of me. You know, I’m busy with my work every day and it involves meeting many men."

"None of those men from work can get my heart. I mean, It’s not because that I’m picky, it’s just because we aren’t right for each other."

"Marriage is not a child’s game. A bad marriage could bring serious consequences, so I must be cautious. I have thought about Anson and me."

"But what's the meaning of me thinking about it alone? Anson can’t accept his injury." She understood everything that Anson was thinking about.

Abigail looked to the side and looked at Eden. Although Eden was still a little drawn because of the accident half a year ago, she was stunning. Victor took meticulous care of her. She was so lucky to have Victor.

Eden looked back at her and said, "So, I can’t understand how he could leave you? I mean, you’re perfect. He’s so silly."

He had been pursuing Abby. But fate played a trick on him when he was going to succeed.

Abigail let out a bitter laugh and said, "Yeah, he’s silly."

"Mommy, Uncle Anson will regret later. If he doesn't take action, he can't even be a back-burner guy." Ricky sat at the back and chuckled.

Abigail laughed with a relaxed look and answered, "Yes. If he doesn’t make any change, then I don’t mind having one more back-up."

Although she said so, she actually felt a deep pain in her heart. She had given Anson a chance, which, however, Anson had never taken. Her efforts alone were meaningless.

Eden didn’t join in their chat. Destiny brought Anson and Abby together, but maybe at the wrong time. She thought.

They arrived at the mall. When Abigail was parking the car, Eden and the kids went to the mall waiting for Abigail.

Coincidentally, just as they entered, they came across Myra and Haven.

Seeing them together, Eden was slightly confused. They were in a bad relationship in Alwynn Group before, but now it seemed that they reconciled.

The kids became alert immediately when saw the two women, and they kept Eden behind them to protect her.

"What a coincidence! Long time no see, Cyan. I thought you’re dead." Myra’s voice was sharp.

There was a mocking smile on her face.

Giada retorted angrily, "Let’s see who will die first, ugly woman. You’ll get your retribution."

She never allowed anyone to offend her mother, especially in front of her.

Myra and Haven looked at each other, and Haven hinted her to strike back.

Noticing their eye contact, Eden was worried. She knew that they would definitely cause her some trouble.

The two women stopped in front of Eden and looked down at her, saying, "Cyan, your daughter is such a glib girl, not the yes-man you were when you were little. If you had been like this, you might have suffered less."

"Haha." Giada suddenly laughed. She crossed her arms, raised her head, and looked at Myra mockingly up and down. "I’m not sure what your problem is, but it’s quite fun watching you try to reach the same level with us, you bumpkin. Oh, but, I have to applaud for your courage of being not afraid of embarrassment."

Hearing his sister’s comments, Henrick snickered silently. No one should ever offend Giada.

"You’d better shut your mouth up, you brat." Myra raised her hand and was about to beat Giada.

Eden was a little startled but she stopped Myra in time. She said, "Go ahead, if you’re not afraid of the price."

Her cold voice stopped Myra’s hand.

Seeing Myra’s reaction, Haven realized that she was bluffing. Her eyes became cold.

Myra stared at Eden with a sneer and said, "Do you think I’m afraid of you now because of Victor?

Don't forget you’ve always been the underdog since you were little."

Kenneth's eyes were as dark as ink. He in this expression was similar to Victor. He glared at Myra with his gloomy and terrible eyes. "Be grateful for my mother’s kindness. She didn't destroy you.

She didn’t take the shares of your family, allowing you have a peaceful life as before. If I were my mother, haha…" He sneered. "You’ll know what hell is like. Don't get in our way. Otherwise, I can make you penniless overnight."

However, Myra didn’t take his words seriously. He was just a normal kid to her.

She laughed fearlessly and said, "Oh, I'm so scared. Let’s see whether or not you have the ability to make me lose my everything."

Her expression suddenly changed and she looked at Eden with vicious eyes. "Don’t you remember who was the cause of my straits?"

Eden answered, "Even though you’re in straits, you haven't repented at all."

"Repent?" Myra guffawed as if she had heard a funny joke. "Interesting, Cyan."

"I’m Eden, not Cyan." Eden interrupted her with cold eyes.

She hated the old name, which kept reminding her of those indelible hard days all the time.

Although she was living a happy life now, the old scars would hurt when they were uncovered.
