Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 2040

"Eden, you and Mr. Joye take good care of me, and I really recover well. I can only walk slowly now, but I feel so good to be free." She did not want to sit in a wheelchair again. "Alright, let's celebrate that you've got rid of the wheelchair. Have some tea first. We'll leave soon."

"Will Victor go with us?" Lyric was a little afraid that Victor would be jealous.

She knew that Victor would even be jealous of women.

He would hold a grudge against anyone who stayed with Eden.

Eden knew what she was thinking, "No, he went to the branch office today. He'll come back to pick me up at five o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay." Lyric suddenly thought of Margery and said with admiration, "Eden, who is the lady who beat the model that day? She is really cool."

Eden knew who she was talking about, "Margery, the director of the model department."

"Wow! No wonder she is so tall, nice-shaped and beautiful. What's more, she is loyal and righteous. That kind of vicious woman should be taught a lesson. Otherwise, she will hurt someone else. She'll never change herself, and she's too mean."

Ansley once played many tricks on her.

"Don't worry. She won't do anything bad again. Hasn't Ansley been caught?"

"No. Logically speaking, she should have no money now, and she can't hide for too long. After my father went abroad, she didn't go to see her mother, so we don't know where she is." The police had been searching for Ansley near her house, but she had never appeared.

She had been driven to a corner.

She must be looking for Lyric soon.

"By the way, Eden, before my father had a car accident, her credit card was maxed out. She is in urgent need of money now."

Eden frowned slightly. In this case, Ansley would not hide for too long. Since she could hide and live a good life, the only possibility was that she met someone who was willing to help and support her. Eden said to Lyric, "You must be more careful when you go out in the future!"

"Yeah, I know." These caring words warmed Lyric's heart.

After she got to know Eden, she no longer felt lonely though her mother was not by her side. Knowing Jasper made her heart full of happiness, and she was not depressed anymore.

After chatting for a while, Eden left the company with Lyric.

Danielle and Alyssa went out for lunch and saw Eden and Lyric.

They had a tacit understanding and didn't greet Eden.

They followed Eden and entered the same restaurant later.

Eden came here occasionally. The dishes were delicious and fresh. It was a cold day, so Eden and Lyric decided to have hot pot.

They sat down by the window. After ordering the meal, they chatted and waited for meal to be served.

Eden looked at Lyric. Her facial features were delicate, and she looked more energetic than before. "Lyric, do you get along well with Jasper now?"

Lyric was stunned for a moment, and she blushed in an instant.

"Eden, why... do you ask like this?" Did Eden replace out that she liked Jasper?

Eden looked at her ears, "Your face and ears are red." What a pure little girl. She blushed just because of her words!

"No," Lyric argued, but at the same time, she felt a little helpless. Her face was very hot.

Eden didn't tease her anymore. Lyric was easy to be shy. She was afraid that Lyric would be too embarrassed to eat lunch later.

Lyric was indeed very shy, especially when it came to something related to Jasper.

She could remain calm if Jasper wasn't by her side. If Jasper was here, she would blush scarlet.

Hot pot was Lyric's favorite. In cold winter, if she didn't want to go out, she would even eat hot pot when she was alone at home.

Eden knew her preferences and ordered her favorite dishes.

They ate happily and chatted in harmony.

Eden knew that no matter who she stayed with, they couldn't become friends unless they had a lot to talk about.

Although Lyric didn't talk about work with her, they could talk a lot about life.

After eating, Eden paid the bill, and the waitress came to clean up the table.

Eden wanted to sit for a while, but the waitress came to clean up the table, so she looked at Lyric, "I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I'll take a walk with you nearby. Let's buy bubble tea together." "Okay, I'll on vacation today." She didn't want to go back so early.

Eden stood up with a smile. However, before she could stand up, the waitress holding the pot suddenly glanced at her. Then, something unexpected happened. The boiling soup in the pot was poured on Eden's body and hands.

"Ouch!" The burning sensation made Eden scream.

"Eden!" Lyric turned around and ran to the kitchen. Soon, she came out with a basin of cold water and soaked Eden's hands in it.

As soon as Eden touched the cold water, the burning sensation dissipated a lot.

"Sorry. I didn't do it on purpose." The waitress lowered her head and apologized, her body trembling slightly.

Hearing this, Lyric looked at her angrily and pushed her hard, "Get out. You did it on purpose! When I stood up, I saw you glance at Eden."

"I was puzzled, and then I saw you pour the soup on Eden."

"No, I really didn't mean it." The waitress argued.

She looked at Eden, "Miss, I really didn't mean it."

Eden was so painful that her forehead was sweating. No matter the waitress did it on purpose or not, she really wanted to give her a lesson.

"Eden, let's go to the hospital first. The waitress is weird. We'll come back here after dealing with your scald."

Eden looked at her. She was too naive. When they came back, the waitress would have run away.

Eden looked at her bag that was stained with oil, "Lyric, my phone is in my bag. Call Dean, my assistant, and let him deal with it." Since the waitress was hostile towards her, she had to investigate her. Lyric had seen everything, and her hands hurt so much. She couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.

"I... really didn't do that. I didn't mean it. It's too cold and my hand trembled." The waitress was about to cry.

She... didn't know Eden's identity. When she heard the word 'assistant', she panicked.

She...

Lyric had taken Eden's phone and called Dean.

Dean put aside his work and rushed to the restaurant as fast as he could.

When he saw Eden's messy clothes and a pair of red and swollen hands, he gulped in shock.

"Mrs. Alwynn, the design competition will be held the next month. Nothing bad can happen to your hands."

Eden was stunned. She looked at him and asked again, "Dean, what did you say?"
