She knew that she had said something improper.
However, it was better to let Victor explain it. Eden trusted him more.
She smiled and said, "Eden, don't sit for too long, and go to bed early."
Eden looked at them. How could she not know what was going on?
Victor had lied to her.
"Abby, I will have a good rest. Don't worry."
"Uh-huh, I'll go back and take a bath for Ayman. Thanks to you, now he can sleep soundly at night."
Abigail got up quickly, and the three of them left.
Before Anson left, he looked at Victor with sympathy.
Victor acted as if he didn't see him and picked up a pear to peel it.
Eden looked at him quietly and did not speak, waiting for him to speak first.
Being stared at by her, Victor just peeled the pear calmly.
Eden looked at him and frowned. Her face was very unhappy, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes.
Just as Eden was about to lose her temper, Victor said slowly, "Eden, have a pear first."
Eden was stunned. Was she in the mood to eat at this time? She did not reach out to take it.
"What on earth did you do to Paula? Did you catch her?" Eden's tone was very calm. She knew that it was not worthwhile to quarrel with Victor because of Paula.
"Yeah!" Victor admitted it frankly.
"Then why did you tell me that she had been sent to prison?" She did not like to be cheated by him.
Victor turned his head slowly to look at her, "I caught her to make sure whether you were kidnapped by Leilani or not. After finding you, I sent her to the police station. Abigail doesn't know about this."
Victor lied calmly.
He hadn't had time to deal with Paula, but he wouldn't let her go because she had hurt Eden again and again.
"Is that so?" Eden looked at him in disbelief.
"Why should I lie to you?" Victor looked at her quietly, and his honest eyes were very calm.
It was already dark. Under the crystal lamp, his attractive figure was as tall and straight. There was a gentle expression on his well-defined face, and he was smiling faintly at her.
Eden was amazed by his charm, and she was rendered speechless. He was right. Why should he lie to her?
He caught Paula in order to save her. At that moment, if he didn't come to her in time, she would have been raped by Stephen. After all, she had no strength to escape.
Without him, she might be living a life worse than death at this time. Perhaps she might have committed suicide.
"Eden, you don't believe me." Victor was a little depressed. He slightly narrowed his eyes and his long eyelash fluttered. He looked extremely aggrieved.
Eden's heart softened instantly. Her beautiful eyes blinked as she said softly, "I... trust you, but I just don't want you to lie to me. I don't want you to do anything bad because of me. It's said that you are cruel and merciless. But only I know how gentle and considerate you are."
Victor knew that she had almost trusted him, and this was enough.
He knew what he was doing very well, and he would not ruin his life because of an irrelevant woman.
He would only be ruthless to those who didn't know what was good for them.
He was a mortal, and he would have a burden in heart once he did something against his conscience. But some vicious people should be taught a lesson!
He gently pulled Eden's hand, held it tightly and said softly, "Fool, I always have a sense of propriety when I do things. I don't care what others say, and I only care about you. As long as you love me the most."
Eden understood, and she no longer cared about Paula's affairs.
She had experienced several horrible accidents. No one knew better than her that it was important to be with her beloved ones.
