Jasper's hand, which was stroking Eden's photo, suddenly trembled. He glanced behind him coldly and said in an aloof tone, "What are you doing here?"
Victor stared at the photo on the computer screen, and his heart suddenly missed a beat. "Have you seen the news?"
Jasper said apathetically, "Can't I see it?"
There was nothing wrong with loving someone and achieving a dream.
However, he and Eden were not destined to be together.
Victor sighed, "I am worried about you, so I came to see you."
He rushed over without stopping, for fear that Jasper would do something crazy for Eden.
Hearing the word "worried", Jasper looked at him with confusion, "Ha-ha..." He sneered, "Are you worried about me? That's weird. I am your rival in love."
Only then did he turn around and look at Victor.
He looked drawn and tired and seemed to be out of his wits. Victor was slightly taken aback. Jasper looked more haggard than a few days ago.
"Jasper, do you really want to go on living like this?" Victor looked at him with brooding eyes. Although he knew Jasper was his powerful rival in love, he would no longer be so jealous.
Jasper would not really take away Eden from him.
He was confident that Eden only loved him.
Jasper turned to look at the computer slowly. Looking at the picture on the screen, he gave an irrelevant answer, "Victor, when you went missing, I hoped that you would not show up again. I am very selfish. If you did not come back, I could get Eden. No matter how many years it would be, I would wait for her. During that period of time, I sent her to the company and picked her up every day. I was so happy at that time."
He knew that it was a shame for him to get close to Eden at that time, but he couldn't miss the chances to stay with her alone.
Hearing this, Victor gulped. He could stand in Jasper's shoes and understand him.
"But I came back." Victor said in a deep tone. Jasper was still staring at the photo on the computer screen.
Victor had seen this photo on the way here.
He remembered that this photo was taken by someone when Jasper and Eden went to Fashion Square. But it had been a long time. Who took this picture?
"You two went to Fashion Square a long time ago. Who did this?" Victor did not intend to argue with Jasper. Instead, he wondered who took this photo.
Jasper said in a deep voice, "Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind on it. If we try our best to investigate, we'll find it out, won't we?"
A trace of viciousness flashed through Jasper's eyes. Seeing him like this, Victor said, "Jasper, cheer up. You just slept with a woman by accident, didn't you? I had the same experience, so I can understand your feelings. But Jasper, you can't go on living like this. Everyone is worried about you."
"Ha-ha..." Jasper laughed self-mockingly. Was that what he cared about?
"Since you don't understand, don't pretend to understand me and persuade me." Victor had slept with a woman by accident, but that woman was Eden.
But what about him?
Victor was speechless. He didn't want to understand Jasper. He just didn't want Eden to suffer from depression again.
"I don't understand you, but I understand Eden. If you are not happy, she will not live a good life."
Jasper's body suddenly trembled, and he clenched his hands into fists.
She wouldn't be happy if he was melancholy, but she did not know that she was his happiness.
"I know what you mean. You can leave now." Jasper drove him away with his face darkened.
Victor took a meaningful look at him, "I know I shouldn't have said this. However, Jasper, don't fail to answer the expectations of someone who loves you. Life is short, and you can't shut yourself off."
Jasper said, "You don't know how painful I am because you don't have the same experience. Just leave. Tell Eden that I am fine and ask her not to worry about me."
Victor was very helpless. Jasper was not fine at all, was he?
