Gluey Love Between Us -
Chapter 361
"Good morning, Director Bleu!" Anson greeted Eden with a smile. Eden's plain dress and her ethereal eyes made her look like an angel. However, this angel had provoked Victor who was standing next to him, making the past two days very difficult for him.
Eden said, "Good morning, everyone!"
Lucian's gaze was deep when he looked at her whereas Victor's gaze was gentle. On the other hand, Adonis looked at her with inquisitive eyes.
Nobody paid attention to Haven who was standing at the side.
"Director Bleu!" Amelia ran towards Eden from afar with a smile.
She immediately nodded and greeted everyone when she saw that Victor and the others were present. "Good morning, Mr. Alwynn and everyone!"
The four men also nodded.
When Eden saw that the elevator had arrived, she said, "Amelia, let's go!"
"Haven."
Eden was about to leave when she suddenly heard
Aisling's voice. She was slightly stunned. She stopped in her tracks and did not move forward.
Amelia glanced at her and stood quietly at the side.
"Victor, Anson, Lucian, Adonis, are you all here?" Aisling looked at them and smiled.
The four men greeted, "Aunt Clement!"
Aisling nodded with a graceful smile on her face.
She looked at Haven at the side and said, "Haven, Ms. Darlene sent me a message to ask if you've finished your design. Eden has sent her design to her. I was passing by so I came here to ask you!" Aisling looked up and saw Eden and Amelia who were standing at the side after she had finished speaking.
Anger surged through Aisling's heart when she saw Eden. She was more prejudiced against Eden after seeing the news yesterday.
Haven shook her head quickly when she heard that. She lowered her gaze and glanced at Eden.
Eden had already submitted her work. She was indeed fast!
Haven looked at Aisling apologetically. "Mom, I haven't finished my design yet!"
Aisling's face was filled with displeasure when she heard that. She was even more unhappy especially when Eden was present. "What have you been doing these days?"
Haven kept her head down and did not speak.
Eden glanced at Aisling deeply. She left with Amelia when she saw the doors of the two elevators opened at the same time.
Seeing that Eden was leaving and the four of them had greeted Aisling, Victor also headed to the elevator.
Aisling and Haven were left behind.
Aisling walked a few steps closer to Haven and said in a dissatisfied tone, "Haven, if you become Darlene's disciple, it would serve you well in the future. Why didn't you take the matter seriously? I had tricked Darlene to talk. She seemed to be very interested in Eden's work. You must come up with the design these few days and send it to her immediately. Do you understand?"
"Got it, Mom." Haven nodded. She had been busy calming Vincent down the past two days. Serving a capricious man was very exhausting.
Aisling sighed and said in a serious tone, "Haven, you have to work hard and see the bigger picture in order to have a better life in a future. Your life would be better if you become Darlene's disciple. She is very influential in the design world. You only
have one or two days left. You should work harder."
Aisling turned around and left after she had finished speaking.
Haven looked at Aisling's back with a dissatisfied expression on her face. She also knew that her status would become different if she became Darlene's disciple.
However, she didn't have much inspiration lately. Moreover, she didn't know Darlene's preferences. Aisling knew that it was important but she didn't help her.
Haven looked at the time and realized that she was going to be late. She turned around and walked to the elevator with a worried look on her face.
Eden worked the same way every day. She attended meetings and followed up on the work progress.
Everything went smoothly every day.
Eden received a call from an unknown number when she was having lunch.
She hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
"Hello!"
"Eden, let's meet."
Eden was surprised to hear Bethany's voice.
She sneered slightly and said, "Who are you?"
"Eden, can't you tell who I am? You have heard my voice for more than ten years."
"Sorry, I really don't know who you are."
"Eden, you..."
"I'm very busy. I'm hanging up!" Eden was about to hang up the phone after she said that.
Bethany said hurriedly, "Eden, don't hang up yet. I am Bethany Gienger. You should know who I am now."
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Eden's eyes. "So it' s Bethany. What do you want?"
"Eden, or perhaps I should call you Cyan!" Bethany's sarcastic voice was trembling slightly.
Eden frowned slightly. Did something go wrong?
Eden said, "Bethany, I don't understand why you identify me as Cyan."
"Cyan, stop pretending. I know it's you. Victor wants to buy my company and he does not give me face. My family would become broke if he buys it.
Eden, I know you hate me for the way I treated you back then but there was nothing I could do. Humans are selfish. You are not my biological daughter. Why should I treat you well? This is your fate and you should accept it.
Now that you are clinging on to Victor, the richest man in River City, are you asking him to help you get revenge?"
Eden frowned when she heard that. How was she not aware of something like that?
She wondered why Bethany would know about the matter. Besides, what did Victor desires have anything to do with her?
However...
Eden's eyes were cold and she continued, "Bethany, I don't know what you mean."
"Cyan, I have raised you for more than ten years, no matter what. The grace of raising a child is greater than giving birth to him.
Even though you are not my biological daughter, you still grew up in my family. Even if I have done something excessive to you, isn't the ten years of grace not enough for you to repay me?" Bethany's angry voice reached Eden's ears sharply.
Eden narrowed her eyes slightly. She had to figure out what was going on.
"I'm sorry, Bethany. I can't help you with this." After saying that, Eden hung up the phone.
She quickly dialed Jasper's number.
"Hello! Eden, it's only been a day since we last met and you have already missed me."
Jasper's ruffian-like voice came from the other end of the phone. Eden frowned slightly and said in a serious tone, "Jasper, I have something to ask you." "I knew something was wrong when I heard your serious tone. Tell me, why did you call me?"
Eden asked, "Jasper, do you know that Victor wants to buy the Gienger family's company?"
"I don't know! Why does Victor suddenly want to buy the Gienger family;s company? The business of the Gienger family has not been particularly good the past few years. They would no longer be able to support the company if we wait for another year or two.
I was still thinking that we could make you be the biggest shareholder by that time with the shares in our hands."
