Victor glanced at Eden's drowsy face and held the steering wheel more tightly.
No matter what danger they would face next, he would not let Eden take risk together with him.
Victor looked at the expressway ahead. The sky was getting darker and darker.
There were many cars on the expressway. If Barrett wanted to attack him, he would not choose this time. However, Victor did not let down his guard.
He followed the guide map and went down the expressway in advance.
He did not know what Phillip wanted to do, but he wouldn't drive very fast when Eden was on the car.
After getting off the expressway, Victor stayed in the town for a while. Eden woke up. Seeing that Victor was not driving on the expressway, she was confused, "Victor, why are we here?"
Victor reached out to rub her head and said with a smile, "You are tired, so I took you here to rest for a while. Wait for me here. I'll buy you something to eat."
Victor came back quickly. He bought a glass of juice for Eden and a cup of coffee for himself.
Eden took a sip of the juice. She found that Victor's expression was somewhat serious, but she said nothing.
She picked up the phone next to her and had a look. It was past eight o'clock at night, and it would take an hour to get home.
"Victor, do you have something on your mind?"
Victor smiled and shook his head, "No, I just want you to rest for a while before leaving."
Eden did not believe his words, but she did not ask further.
Suddenly, she saw a piece of news.
"Mrs. Alwynn seduced Mr. Matthews, which caused Mr. Matthews to break up with his fiancee."
"F*ck..." Eden could not help but curse.
She didn't want to be the scapegoat!
Which b*stard slandered her like this?
"What's wrong? Eden." If she hadn't been too angry, she wouldn't have cursed like this.
"Look! I'm pissed off! Paulina broke up with Irving, but what does it have to do with me? How can I become a mistress who has ruined their relationship?" Eden puffed out her cheeks angrily. Her aggrieved face made Victor's heart ache.
"Eden, don't be angry. I'll ask Brian to investigate it." His voice was low and deep. These people were bolder and bolder.
Eden suddenly took a deep draught of her juice and said slowly, "It can't be Irving's idea. Only Paulina would do such a shameless thing."
Victor suddenly looked at her and narrowed his eyes unhappily. He was jealous, "Do you trust him so much?"
Feeling that he was jealous, Eden was slightly stunned, "Why are you jealous? It's obvious that he can't do this."
Victor thought of the box of love letters for no reason. Thinking that so many boys used to love her, he was so dejected and uncomfortable.
Eden didn't understand love at that time, so she didn't care about those love letters and threw all of them.
However, Irving collected all the love letters. This matter would be a thorn in his heart forever.
"Eden, may I ask you a question?"
Eden tilted her head to look at him, "Just ask."
"When you were in high school, why didn't you open the love letters when you received them?"
Eden was dumbfounded. He was a bit strange.
"I didn't even have money to eat at that time. Could I be in the mood to date?"
Victor's heart was so painful that he almost couldn't breathe. He mentioned her sore point again.
Eden said thoughtfully, "That's right. I'm in poor health during this period of time, so I don't dare to call Delmont. He still keeps this matter from our family, and I didn't ask about their relationship."
Victor said, "They're in deep love."
"How do you know that?"
Victor was speechless. He shot himself in the foot. Why did he always do this kind of thing?
Before Eden, he was never on guard.
"That's just my guess." Victor said perfunctorily.
"You can even guess this. It seems that you're quite smart." Eden said teasingly.
Victor was stunned. He'd better stop talking.
He had to turn left in the front, so he was not in the mood to joke and looked ahead with serious eyes.
Suddenly, a big truck rushed toward them. The dazzling light made Victor's eyes flash. A trace of viciousness flashed through his eyes.
"Victor, be careful!" Eden looked at the truck nervously.
Victor suddenly spun the wheel sharply. Looking at the two sides of the road, he found the right angle accurately and turned the wheel skillfully. The car immediately drifted out and kept a precise distance from the big truck. They were no longer in danger.
"Ah..." Eden was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She clutched the seat belt tightly with both hands.
"Eden, are you okay?" Victor looked at her uneasily.
"Yeah, just concentrate on driving." Eden wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, "Barrett is the most hateful b*stard!"
Eden couldn't help but curse. Having experienced the life-and-death situation, she couldn't feel more terrible in heart.
Victor didn't want her to be afraid, so he echoed her, "Eden, he is a b*stard. When I go back, I will deal with him. Don't be angry."
