Seeing Eden's confused expression, Paula sneered, "Cyan, do you really not remember or did you deliberately forget him? He liked you for three years in high school. Because he always liked you, he still hasn't married a wife yet."
Eden frowned. How could she not know that there was such a boy who loved her?
Besides, how could a high school student know what love was?
No, absolutely nothing like that would have happened to her.
At that time, they were still children.
"Paula, what are you talking about? Don't you talk nonsense. If there was someone that fond of me, how could I not remember him?"
Paula's sneer was harsh.
"Eden, are you kidding me? Don't tell me that you haven't received any chocolate and love letters from him. Don't tell me that when you were on duty, he didn't help you and that he had been helping you with your posters. Don't tell me you didn't know he deliberately ran with you when you were punished for running around the playground."
Eden looked at Paula with a stunned look. She frowned and thought for a while, but she still had no memory of the boy. It had been too long. How could she have noticed who liked her when she was just trying to make a living?
"Paula, I did receive love letters every day, but those love letters were lying quietly in the trash can. I have never read any love letters.
As for the chocolates, didn't you guys eat them? How do I know who gave them to me? It's you who eat those chocolates. So you should remember it, right?"
Paula didn't know what to say, because those chocolates did get eaten by them.
"Isn't that because you don't want to eat?" Although Paula was trying to defend herself, her face flushed first.
Eden sneered as she recalled the past. "How could I possibly be in the mood for chocolate? You four have been bullying me every day. I wanted to eat it, but you took it away from me."
At that time, she couldn't even afford to eat, so why not eat chocolate? When she wanted to eat it, they had took it away and ate it.
Paula blushed even more, regretting why she had mentioned such embarrassing things, which seemed to make her look bad indeed.
They were very young at that time to do that. The moment she saw her years later, she pretended to be familiar, but inside she was still very embarrassed to have done so many bad things to her after all.
"But Eden, Irving really never got married for you. Jodie liked him so she kept an eye on Irving all these years."
Eden was speechless!
Was this really related to her?
"Paula, you can't talk nonsense. I don't know why you're putting this big blame on me. You're trying to make me feel guilty."
Eden knocked on her plate with chopsticks. "We've got to meet with a client later. You've got half an hour to eat your lunch."
"Eden, you are such a careless woman. Can you be more serious about the people around you?" Paula was a little anxious.
Eden smiled. "Sorry, back then all I could think about in my mind was how I could afford my next meal. How would I have had time to think about other people's feelings and pay attention to them?"
"I give in to you! Why does Myra hate you so much? She won't even pay for your meal. Maybe because you have such a don't-care-about-anything attitude." Paula huffed and started eating.
Eden smiled but did not say anything.
