After dinner, they chatted for a while and then went back to their own rooms.
Anson went back home with Abigail.
Eden felt relieved when she saw that everything was back to normal between the two of them.
When Victor helped Eden finish the bath, it was already completely dark outside.
Eden felt very tired, but she could not sleep tight as long as they haven't sort the issue with Myra out.
Victor put her on the soft bed, lying beside her and holding her in his arms, stroking her hair with his big hand.
Eden tilted her head slightly and looked at him. "Victor, have you heard anything back about Myra's matter? I didn't ask anything when they were all here." She saw that he had received a call from Brian.
Victor looked at her with his dark eyes. He knew she was still worried about it.
Brian had already called him. "Brian has checked it, and what Myra said is true. Haven is indeed involved. Myra didn't manage the bar well, so she lost all the money. Now the only thing she has is their old house. However, she invested in the company introduced by Haven, and that company absconded with the money after she invested, so she didn't get anything but owed millions of dollars to the debt."
Eden asked with doubt, "How could this be such a coincidence?"
Victor smiled slightly and said, "It's indeed a coincidence. I already asked Brian to continue to investigate. Myra is not allowed to get out of her house now, so you don't need to worry anymore. Nothing will happen to her for now. They gave her three days to get the money, so we have enough time to figure out the whole thing."
His words made Eden relieved.
Myra was right about one thing. They lived together and grew up together like sisters, even though Myra never admitted that she was her sister.
Looking at Eden's slightly worried face, Victor didn't know what to say. Myra had never treated her as a family member before but like a servant.
However, he knew that Eden was too kind, so she would not leave Myra alone if she was in danger. She even went to visit Bethany again in prison before everything happened.
He knew all of this, which was why he felt so sorry for her.
"Eden, leave this to me. I know you don't hate Myra that much anymore, so you don't want anything bad to happen to her. But before we help her, we will have to find out about the whole story. Brian said that we shouldn't ignore the possibility that Haven lied to her."
"Right!" Eden exclaimed softly, "Haven needs a lot of money to invest now to get more shares. So, it's absolutely possible."
Haven's ambition was getting bigger and bigger.
She would be more terrible than Rebecca sooner or later. Eden already had a strong feeling of this.
Victor nodded and said, "You are right. Haven invested in a company somewhere else in the country not long ago, but the company has already gone bankrupt. That company just needed moeny for capital turnover, but they still went bankrupt not long after getting the money. I'm afraid that Haven also lost a lot of money.
She knows of the relationship between you and Myra, so she might plan to drag Myra into this with her because she knows that you wouldn't leave Myra to die. Although these are all my guesses, I believe that is definitely what Haven could do."
Eden looked at him with some displeasure. "You... you know Haven very well?"
Victor realized that she was jealous. He couldn't help but laugh. "Silly girl, are you jealous?"
"What are you talking about?" Eden glared at him. As long as Haven was involved, she would always felt a little unhappy.
She also understood that the reason her mother adopted Haven was that they could still let Haven marry Victor if they couldn't find her. She was a human with feelings, so she would naturally be jealous.
However, Victor burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?" Eden hit his chest with her hand softly.
Victor was still laughing. He held her small hand and pressed it on his chest. "You know that you are the only one I care about no matter what happens. I really could not fit anyone else in my heart anymore. So you don't need to worry."
