Brian walked to the door, but he didn't want to leave like this and turned back. Then he took away the wine glass in which there were a few drops of wine left.
Melissa's heart beat so wildly as she watched Brian's movements.
She couldn't help but look at Victor, only to see him glance at her with horrible and brooding eyes. In an instant, she felt that her heart beat faster, and she was totally panicked.
The atmosphere was terrifyingly oppressive, and Melissa couldn't stand it. She snorted angrily and walked outside.
Carney shook his head helplessly.
Lucian glanced at Carney, "Mr. Craig, we'll leave first."
Lucian picked up the bag and filled it with the money Victor had won. Without waiting for Carney to reply to him, he went out with Victor.
The businessman shook his head with disappointment, "I heard that Victor has made great achievements in the real estate industry in River City, and he has a close relationship with Mr. Calder. Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to get to know him and lay a foundation for my development, but such an accident happened."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Carney and said earnestly, "Carney, you can't spoil your daughter like this. She will be taught a lesson sooner or later. I know you only have one daughter, and you give her whatever she wants, but you are not helping her. You're hurting her in this way. We all know what she has put in the wine. Once Victor drinks it, his family will be ruined."
After saying these words, the businessman stood up and left.
Carney had been sitting there quietly and did not speak.
His face darkened to the extreme, and he was very mad.
Melissa was indeed arrogant, but he didn't expect her to be so crazy.
Her mother passed away when she was young, and she got sick because of her mother's death. He always felt guilty, so he had been tolerant of her and allowed her to spend extravagantly.
Thinking of what Melissa had done these days, he was worried that she would suffer schizophrenia again.
He asked his assistant to greet the guests here, and then got up to look for Melissa.
Melissa walked out angrily. The swimming pool was in the area next to the hall, and Eden was there.
Eden came out to call Jasper. Jasper was still in this city.
Eden was very happy to hear that and kept chatting with Jasper.
They hadn't met each other after Eden had a car accident. Eden stayed with Victor these days and almost forgot Jasper. She felt very sorry for him, so she wanted to chat with him for longer.
Eden stood by the deep end of the swimming pool. Her nice shape was reflected in the clear water.
Jasper was in a bad mood these days. After finishing his work, he knew that Eden was in this city, so he had no intention to go back.
He had been waiting for her to call him, wondering if she would forget him because Victor had come back.
When he was about to give up, she suddenly called him.
Moreover, she was right in front of him.
Jasper leaned against the big tree and looked at Eden who was talking to him on the phone. He smiled tenderly, and the atmosphere was lovely.
"Jasper, let's talk when we meet. I've been out for a long while."
"Okay! Eden, have a good time." Jasper nodded with a smile and hung up the phone.
That night, Eden was really beautiful.
Jasper turned on the camera and focused it on Eden.
Eden hung up the phone. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she bumped into Melissa coming the other way.
Melissa had stood behind Eden for quite a while. Hearing Eden talking on the phone happily, she was in a very bad mood. Why was Eden so happy but she felt so sad?
They both fell in love with Victor, but Victor didn't even want to look at her.
