Victor also saw her and smiled gently.
Eden opened the door and got in the car. Before Victor could do anything, she fastened her seat belt herself.
"Why did you come here?" Victor glanced at all the luxury cars in front of the restaurant. He knew that the Simpson family was holding a party tonight.
A party for their company listing.
Eden smiled and said, "I needed to do something. Have you finished your work?"
"Yes, the contract was signed pretty smoothly," Victor said softly.
He already got all the projects that Barrett wanted. Now Barrett's company was going to be listed in River City, the result would be very obvious.
Victor glanced at the door of the restaurant then looked at Eden. His black eyes flashed slightly. "Honey, let's have dinner here." He was a little hungry after a busy day today.
But what did Eden come here for? Doubt flickered in his eyes.
Eden shook her head slightly and said, "Let's go home now. I will cook you dinner."
"Alright. Let's go home then." Victor was pleased in an instant.
He smiled and said, "Let's go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables."
"Sounds good." Eden nodded, but she was still thinking about what happened earlier. There must be someone in the company who gave her away.
Could it be Paula?
After she returned from Lemmon City, Paula was indeed there when she met Karlee.
However, Paula didn't have the chance to take photos, and she didn't believe that Paula had the ability to remember every detail of the dress. Then she carefully thought about the places where she had been with the design.
There were only two places where her design drafts could be seen. One was in her office, and the other one was in the design department.
When she made the dress, it was impossible for anyone to steal the design. She had asked Thalia to send the dress over.
Thalia didn't know much about design, so it couldn't be her.
Victor was driving the car quietly. The temperature in summer was a bit stuffy even in the evening, and the setting sun made the high-rise buildings began to glow.
Victor could tell that she had something on her mind.
"Eden, what's wrong?" His black eyes flashed, hoping she would say it out herself.
Eden thought for a moment and said, "Do you remember the dress I designed for Karlee?"
"Yes. What happened?"
"Today, Carlotta wears an exactly same dress. Karlee wasn't happy, so she called me, and that's why I came over. The two dresses were indeed exactly the same. Carlotta got the dress from Paulina today."
A trace of coldness flashed in Victor's eyes, and his voice became deeper, "So, your design drawing was stolen by someone."
Eden nodded without saying anything. She had always been very careful to try to avoid something like this to happen.
The purpose of the person who did it was very obvious. Karlee was different from the ordinary ladies of aristocratic families. If she wore the same dress like others, her reputation would be ruined.
But that person didn't know the relationship between Eden and Karlee.
If they weren't close enough, Karlee would have made a scene at the party today.
And this was exactly what that person wanted.
"Eden, don't worry. I'll ask Lucian to take a look at the CCTV footage."
Eden said, "No need to bother him. I will figure it out myself. He is busy enough to take care of two children."
Victor nodded and said, "Then I will ask Dean to have a look tomorrow."
"Alright," Eden nodded slightly.
After getting some food from the supermarket, they went home together to make dinner.
