Dahlia said, "If you are afraid of seeing her, wait for me here. I will go inside first." It was better to hide something from Dulcie.
"Alright." Dulcie didn't want to go in at all.
Dahlia walked to the appointed room.
This club was heavily guarded, but no one knew that it belonged to Victor.
Dahlia entered the room which was filled with the aroma of coffee.
There was a bouquet of lilies on the fashion-style glass round table not far away, and there was a delicate smell of lilies.
Dressed in a rosy and elegant suit, Leilani no longer looked as noble and graceful as usual. Instead, she was listless. At this moment, she was a fragile mother who had lost her children. As soon as her children were mentioned, she would immediately go crazy.
Looking at Leilani like this, Dahlia walked over and sat opposite her with distress.
"Mrs. Simpson." She said softly.
Leilani came to sense slightly, and the expression on her strongly defined face changed.
"You're here."
Dahlia nodded, "Stephen has been sent to prison. Mrs. Simpson, don't be so sad and think more positively." Things had happened, and they were all caught off guard.
The Simpson family and she didn't expect such a thing to happen. Victor found Eden too quickly.
Leilani looked at her with a sneer, "The lives of my son and daughter have been ruined by Victor and his wife, but you ask me to be more optimistic. Dahlia, are you kidding?"
Her hoarse voice was full of intense pain.
In the Simpson family, children were very important.
Both of her son and daughter had been sent to jail. What could she do at this time? Chelsea and Stephen were her pride. They were the reasons why she could be arrogant in the Simpson family and why Barrett trusted and doted on her.
But they were imprisoned, and her status was in great peril.
Marcia was ready to take action.
Adrienne, that b*tch, had been waiting for this day.
In the past few days, every time she saw Adrienne, Adrienne looked snooty, which made her very annoyed. However, Adrienne deliberately wandered in front of her.
Dahlia knew how she felt. As a mother, how could she watch her children be imprisoned and do nothing?
"Mrs. Simpson, taking care of your health is the most important thing. Stephen and Chelsea will be released in a few years, but if you get sick, they will have no hope after they come out of the prison. The affairs in your family are very complicated, and now you're the most powerful in your family, so you can't let down your guard."
After being reminded by Dahlia, Leilani was enlightened. An idea flashed through her mind and she instantly understood a lot of things.
"Dahlia, with you by my side, I can rest assured. I almost go crazy because Stephen and Chelsea these days." Leilani wiped her tears and said in a trembling voice. At the thought of her two children, she burst into tears uncontrollably.
She came back here to enjoy her life, but she had no way to accept the fact.
Dahlia asked the waiter to serve her a cup of coffee. The coffee here tasted great. She was addicted to it after drinking it once, and she would come over to drink it occasionally.
The annual membership fee of this club was shockingly high, but many people spent money here.
Leilani liked the coffee here as well and often came here. After drinking coffee for a while, they began to talk about other things.
Leilani wanted to continue to deal with Victor and Eden.
Dahlia did not object. The reason why she returned to River City again was that she wanted to take revenge.
"Dahlia, you are right. I was thoughtless. After Simpson Group is floated on the stock market, let's sit down and talk about how to deal with Alwynn Group." Leilani thought for a moment and added, "Dahlia, as long as you can make things difficult for Eden, just do as you wish. I will still pay you the money. My family is the least short of money."
Dahlia's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this. She made friends with the Simpson family just for money.
Only when she had money could she be powerful.
Barrett introduced many people to her, including Irving's father. If it weren't for Barrett, she wouldn't have had the chance to know Irving.
She smiled and said, "You're too polite, Mrs. Simpson. She is our common enemy."
They were birds of the same feather, and they talked quite happily.
Eden stayed at home for a long time. The Dragon Boat Festival was coming.
Eden's injuries were healed, and she wanted to go back to work after the Dragon Boat Festival.
Although she didn't go to work, Seth did a good job. Alyssa had been promoted to be her assistant. She had been working in the company for two years and was familiar with the workflow, so Eden was not worried.
In order to accompany her, Victor rarely went to the company. Since Lucian was not here, Dean had to go on business trips often.
Victor accompanied Eden at home at ease. He would not go back to the company unless there were important meetings.
That day, Eden sat alone in the yard and looked at the calendar on her phone in a daze.
When Victor walked to her with a glass of juice, he saw her in a daze.
"Eden, what's wrong?" He sat beside her, held her in his arms and fed her the juice cautiously.
Eden lowered her head and took a sip of it before she looked at him and said gloomily, "Candace is about to give birth to the baby soon."
