Everyone fell silent instantly. After a while, Eden heard the woman's surprised voice.
"Mr. Alwynn, do you know that without the help of our company, it's difficult for you to gain a firm foothold if you want to enter that country." The woman's tone was contemptuous and arrogant.
Eden felt a little angry for Victor. She knew that he had been busy with this project.
Now, he was being bullied like this, which made her feel really uncomfortable. However, he would have to put up with it if he wanted to get more from it.
Then, Victor's cold voice sounded, "To cooperate with you is just to speed up the progress, which can save a lot of trouble. If we don't cooperate with your company, as long as we are listed, your company will not be a match to us. Since you don't appreciate my kindness, I will have to leave it then."
Eden narrowed her eyes slightly and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to him. She was so proud of her husband.
Both companies would be seeking win-win cooperation, however, if someone wanted to break the rules, there was no point to carry on anymore.
"Haha..."
Eden heard the woman's arrogant laughter at this moment.
"Mr. Alwynn, I know you are invincible in the business field. This may be your market and your world, but it is totally different when you are in another country."
"Really?" Victor's voice sounded much colder than earlier.
"Don't you think so? Mr. Alwynn, am I not beautiful enough? Compared to your wife, I am more charming and fascinating. As long as you are with me, the market there will be yours.
As for your wife, I have seen her photos online. She looks pretty, but she doesn't have the charm. You must be so bored of her now already."
Hearing this, Eden could not hold back her anger anymore. How could there be such a shameless woman? It was just a business corporation, how could she say such ridiculous words?
She didn't have the charm? And Victor would be bored of her already?
How dare she say such words?
The woman's words kept echoing in Eden's head. She really wished she could slap her in the face right now.
She felt she couldn't stand it anymore.
At this time, Victor said proudly, "In my heart, my wife is the most beautiful woman."
"Really?" The woman sneered, "Mr. Alwynn, you are one of the most famous people in River City, so I must work hard enough to get you." She did not hide her desire in front of Victor.
And she was not angry at his words at all.
Eden could not help but push the door open quietly. Through the gap of the door, she could only see Victor who was sitting there casually. His entire body looked so cold but so attractive at the same time.
His lips looked redder than before, maybe because he had some drinks.
"Mr. Alwynn, you can think about what I said."
"I don't need to think about it." Victor's cold eyes were filled with disgust.
Seeing this, Eden calmed down a lot. It seemed that she didn't need to go in anymore.
She knew her husband would never cheat on her.
A vague smile appeared on her face, then she slowly turned around and left.
However, at the same time, Victor turned his face to look at the door. With just a glance, he recognized Eden.
His lips curled up into a faint smile, and the coldness in his eyes faded away.
When Eden returned to the VIP room, all the dishes had already been served.
Karlee looked at her in confusion. "Eden, why have you gone for so long? Do you have constipation?"
