Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 380

Victor did not say anything and played with his wine glass quietly when he saw Anson's behavior.

He didn't like to smoke and drink.

That was because those things were not able to numb the pain in his heart.

He liked to exercise most of the time because he was able to relax himself when he did that.

The surroundings were noisy. Victor frowned slightly but he still accompanied Lucian patiently.

Victor actually felt guilty towards Lucian, Anson and Adonis. However, he never showed his feelings.

In the past, the three of them would always stay by his side when he was suffering.

Anson did not return home for months just to accompany him.

Victor considered returning a favor to Lucian by accompanying him at the moment.

Eden went straight back to her room when she returned home.

The sun was setting and the sky was red. The soft light penetrated through the French windows and enveloped her.

Eden's eyes darkened as she leaned on the chair lazily and looked out of the window from time to time!

There was no beautiful scenery outside, only the brilliant light.

Eden's phone that was on the table rang twice. Eden did not answer the call even though it was from Jasper.

She felt very conflicted and did not know what to tell Jasper.

"Alas!" Eden sighed deeply as she rubbed her brows with her slender fingers. She had never felt as annoyed as she was at the moment. "Knock, knock..."

Eden sobered up slightly when she heard the sudden knock on the door. She got up and opened the door casually.

Eden was greeted by Jasper's tall and straight figure when she opened the door. He looked like an angel who had descended from heaven at the moment.

Eden looked at him in surprise. He was wearing a neat suit and he looked as though he had come directly from his company.

She smiled and said, "Jasper, you're here!"

Jasper frowned at her when he heard her weak voice. He walked into the room with two cups of

strawberry milk tea in his hand.

He put the milk tea on the table and asked, "Eden, why didn't you answer my call?"

Eden sat down weakly and looked at him with a smile. "Jasper, I haven't had an answer yet!"

When Jasper heard that, he looked at her deeply and sat opposite her. His heart ached for her as he said, "Eden, I knew this would happen. That's why I came to see you!"

Eden smiled and said, "Jasper, there is nothing to worry about. I am an adult. Are you afraid that I will get lost?"

Jasper looked at her helplessly and complained, "Eden, you know very well that I didn't mean that."

Eden looked at him helplessly. She had changed the topic but why did Jasper bring it up again?

Jasper suddenly looked at her seriously. "Eden, this is a great opportunity. Bethany is not a good person. She has secretly done a lot of illegal things."

Eden also knew that this was a great opportunity. "Jasper, sometimes I couldn't help but think of this question. If I was bitten by a rabid dog, do I have to bite it back? If I do that, wouldn't I become just like her?" Jasper understood what Eden meant when he heard that. He asked, "Eden, are you willing to get hurt

then?"

Eden was slightly taken aback by Jasper's question. She looked at Jasper blankly. Was she willing to get hurt?

No. She was resentful!

The thing that she resented the most was her failure to stay by her parents' side and be filial to them.

Jasper knew that there was still hatred in Eden's heart when he saw her expression!

Eden said, "Jasper, I'm resentful!"

"Don't be soft-hearted then." Jasper's tone was stern.

"Eden, think about what you've been through all these years. You had been suffering alone at night. Think about your past. Eden, are you willing to let it go?"

"You still haven't found your biological parents and your family. Are you willing to let it go?" Jasper pressed hard on her. He knew what she had suffered and his heart would ache for her whenever he thought about it.

"Jasper..."

"Eden." Jasper took her hand and held it. Her hand was a little cold.

Eden tried to draw her hand back but Jasper held onto it tightly.

Eden raised her head and looked at him suddenly. Jasper did not have his usual gentle look at the moment. He looked restrained and mature instead. He looked at her deeply. His facial features were cold, beautiful and well-defined, and he exuded a chilling aura.

Eden had rarely seen this side of Jasper's.

When she went to his company occasionally and looked at him from afar, she would see Jasper putting on the same kind of expression, just like the expression at the moment.

"Jasper." Eden looked at him quietly and smiled gently. "I know your heart aches for me. Since that's the case, let's do it then. The only thing on my mind now is to know where Bethany took me away back then. I need to replace my family first."

When Eden mentioned her family, she suddenly recalled Aisling's enmity towards her.

Jasper held her hand tightly. "Eden, I'm here!"

The short words were able to warm up Eden's heart.

"Jasper, I have never been lonely with all of you by my side all these years." Eden looked at him sincerely.

Only then did Jasper return to his usual gentle self.

"Eden, let's do it now. I have found some evidence of the things that the Gienger family had done."

Eden nodded with a smile. She got up and went to get her other phone. She turned on the phone and saw that Bethany had sent a lot of messages to question her.

She sneered, typed a line of words quickly and sent it to Bethany.

"Bethany, I'll give you one last chance. Where did you take Eden away years ago?

If you don't tell me that, I'll reveal all the things that you've secretly done."

After sending the message, Eden put the phone on the table and waited for Bethany's reply.

She had been resisting to know the truth all the while.

Therefore, this time, she was very persistent to know where Bethany had taken her away years ago.

Victor's words would come to her mind every time she closed her eyes. The doubts were driving her crazy.

Eden and Jasper sat quietly and did not talk to each other.

Jasper inserted the straw into the strawberry milk tea and handed it to Eden.

Eden smiled gratefully when she saw that. "Jasper, you would always bring me delicious food every time you visit me. I was too busy today and didn't have breakfast. I'm very hungry at the moment. Jasper looked at her with distress. "You don't know how to take good care of yourself. Aunt Jaida should be back soon. I'll ask her to make delicious food for you later."

Eden smiled and said, "My mother has accompanied Kenny and Gia to the bookstore. I'll cook later. My father will be back after seven o'clock. Zofia is also busy. I am the one who is the freest now."
