Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 1912

Barrett smiled and pinched her soft waist. Then he kissed her face before saying, "You're right. I just don't want to give up. When I was abroad, it was the easiest to lure my business partners with women. Every man is lascivious, right? But I have lost to Victor several times. Now I finally realize that there is such a loyal man in this world."

Dahlia's eyes darkened. Victor was such a man, so she couldn't let go of her love for him and lost everything.

She was forced to go abroad, and at this time, she was forced to be with an old man.

Dahlia asked, "So what are you going to do? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Barrett lowered his head and looked at her with meaningful eyes. Her words were inexplicably familiar.

Dahlia could do anything for money. The only thing he was sure was that their fate was closely linked, and Dahlia would not betray him. Barrett stroked her red lips gently. His fingers were stained with her lipstick, and the atmosphere was extremely ambiguous.

Dahlia opened her mouth lightly and took a bite of Barrett's finger. There was a cigarette smell on his finger.

Barrett shuddered slightly. His pupils trembled, and his eyes became intense. A memory stirred in him, and this scene was so familiar.

He had experienced this feeling when he was young. That woman shared his joy and sorrow, and she was the only woman who loved him sincerely.

Unfortunately, he would never see her charming appearance again.

That day, he forced Dahlia to have sex with him, because Dahlia looked like her. They were both beautiful while bedtime.

However, Dahlia didn't love him. But he missed her so much, and he didn't mind it.

"You really look like her." Barrett said in a low voice. He seemed to be whispering and telling Dahlia that she was just a substitute.

Dahlia was stunned. She did not understand the meaning of his words.

"Like who?" Dahlia suddenly spoke.

Barrett was dumbfounded. He seemed to distracted just now, "Nothing. Go take a bath. After that, I'll bring you out to eat delicious food." Barrett's voice was very gentle.

Dahlia was taken aback. He had never been so tender before, but she went to the bathroom obediently and waited for him.

It was past five o'clock in the afternoon, but Jasper hadn't woken up. Lyric had been staring at Jasper, and she fell asleep as well.

Eden ordered dinner from River City Restaurant for them and waited at the door.

She had seen the message sent by Victor, but she didn't want to go back.

She was very angry. Why should she be punished?

She begged him last night, but he was unmoved!

Her eyes were brimming with tears, and she was very tired, but he didn't stop. She wouldn't go back!

Eden looked down at her phone. Victor sent her another message, "Honey, when will you come back? I'm going to cook."

"Honey, when I was cutting the fish, my hand was scratched by knife, because I was thinking about you." A sticker drawn by Eden was attached.

Eden was speechless. Couldn't he be careful?

He deserved it!

How could he beg for forgiveness by showing off his misery? When did he learn this? It was childish!

"Honey, I bled a lot."

He sent her the photo of his bloody finger.

Eden suspected that he got injured deliberately in order to let her go back.

She looked at the picture unhappily and remained unmoved.

When she put the phone back and looked up, she saw a woman who dressed up fashionably. At this time, the woman was standing at the door of the ward and looking inside. Eden looked at her and asked, "May I ask who you're looking for?"

Ansley glanced at Eden and said in an arrogant tone, "It's none of your business."

Eden stood up and said, "My friends are resting inside. Please don't disturb them."

"Friend? Is Lyric your friend?" Ansley looked Eden up and down. Eden's clothes were not expensive, and only her bag looked pretty nice. She knew that Lyric's friends were all poor.

Eden nodded without any expression on her face. She disdained to argue with such an impolite and impudent person.

"Lyric just sprained her ankle, didn't she? I heard that she asked the president of her company to accompany her. Doesn't she feel ashamed to stay with a man in the same room? Mr. Joye is busy. How could she be worth of his care?"

Ansley lowered her voice, for fear that Jasper would hear her. She did not want Jasper to think that she was overweening and domineering.

Eden said coldly, "Whether she is worth of his care or not, it's none of your business!"

"Hey, who do you think you are? Lyric is just a poor woman. What right does she have to get Mr. Joye's special attention?"

Eden was angry. Just as she was about to talk back, she saw the manager of River City Restaurant coming over with a dining trolley.

He looked at Eden with a smile, "Mrs. Alwynn, dinner is here."

Eden nodded slightly and said, "Lyric will live here for about a week. I'll have to trouble you to send different dishes from River City Restaurant to her every day. Cook whatever she wants to eat for her."

"I see, Mrs. Alwynn. After I go back, I'll arrange a few chefs for Miss Lamb specially. We're on her call."

"Thank you. Go back first. Come and get the dinning trolley in the afternoon. It will be more convenient." Eden said.

"Okay. See you, Mrs. Alwynn!" The manager left with a smile. Working overtime to send meals meant that he would get double bonus. How could he not be happy?

The manager's words came as a complete shock for Ansley.

It would cost at least ten thousand dollars to eat a meal in River City Restaurant. She could only eat there by saving money for half a year.

But Lyric would eat the food everyday. How could it be?

Lyric didn't deserve it, did she?

Eden didn't bother to argue with Ansley. She pushed the dining trolley into the ward.

"Alas, I..." Looking at Eden's back, Ansley was slightly startled. Who exactly was this woman?

She followed Eden shamelessly. This was her first time to enter a VIP ward. The facilities inside were complete. It didn't look like a ward at all, but like a five-star hotel. Ansley was so jealous that she wished that she could sleep on the high-end hospital bed as well.

The sound of the door opening woke up Jasper.

Seeing Eden, he sat up slowly, rubbed the corner of his eyes and yawned. He was drowsy, but he looked at Eden with bright eyes, "Eden, you're here."

"Jasper, are you very tired recently? You've slept for hours." Eden smiled and said.

"What? Eden, have you been here for a long time?" Jasper stood up from the chair, feeling much more energetic.

"I've been here for two hours, and I was waiting for you two to wake up." Eden glanced at Lyric who was still sleeping soundly, and she kept talking in a low voice.

"It's time for dinner. I asked the manager of River City Restaurant to bring food here. He'll send meals for Lyric everyday."

"Yo!" Jasper glanced at Lyric's sleeping face. She was quite energetic in the morning, but she was deep in sleep at this time.

"She will be very delighted. She even asked me to treat her before we had a buffet that night!"
