Although thinking so, she still looked at these documents very carefully. She was just the nominal president of Symantec Group now, and everything was managed by Dawson.
She actually wanted to make some achievements to convince people, and did not want to just be a kid who relied on her father to pull some strings.
Moreover, she didn't want to let her father down.
At this time, someone suddenly called her on the video phone, "Ricky, what's wrong?" Eden smiled at her son and could tell he wasn't in the best of spirits.
Henrick lay in bed and looked unhappy. "Mom, I'm sick."
Eden looked worriedly at her weak son, and her voice became more and more gentle, "Ricky, did you go to the hospital?"
"Yes! Grandma took me there this morning. I had a cold and my throat was very uncomfortable. I took the medicine and now I want to lie down for a while. Mother, when can we go home?"
Eden was suddenly a little sad. She looked down slightly to hide her emotions, then continued to smile at her son, "Ricky, Mom heard from your grandmother that you're settling in and getting the hang of the school curriculum, right?"
She avoided the subject.
"Yeah, school's almost over. Mom, I miss you. Let me come back during the holidays, okay?" Henrick looked at his mother with anticipation and the missing in his eyes was heartbreaking even through the screen.
Eden also missed her children, but more than that, she didn't want to put them in danger.
"Ricky..."
"Well, mom, you don't have to say anything. Actually, I'm asking you this on purpose. We're fine over here. We're good learners and can fit in anywhere. I'm just afraid you'll miss me too much." Henrick saw his mom's hesitation and knew there was still danger. He also knew that his mom would be more upset if she rejected him.
Eden knew that her son was sensible, but his sensibleness made her feel more distressed.
"Ricky, you can go home soon. I promise you." She didn't know approximately when this matter would be resolved. With her little idea, it was impossible to solve the problem with the Simpson family. It was still up to Victor.
She often felt that she was pretty useless.
"Ricky, mom loves you." Eden smiled and didn't know what to say.
"Mom, I love you too! Mom, goodbye!" Henrick hung up the video call quickly. But eden could hear his sobbing voice.
She stared blankly at her phone, which had gone black, and now she could only miss her children in this way.
Eden instantly didn't want to continue reading the paper. She walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the view of River City in a terrible mood.
To keep Eden from worrying, Victor and Dean go out to deal with Adrienne's matter. He didn't let Eden know about this matter from the beginning to the end.
They met at a fancy restaurant.
In the private room, Adrienne's face was no longer red and swollen after a night of ice packs.
Morgan accompanied her to meet Victor.
"Mr. Alwynn, I've heard so much about you!" Morgan was polite; after all, Victor had helped them. If it wasn't for him, they would still be bullied in the Simpson family as before.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Alwynn!"
Victor looked at him, and his expression was as indifferent as ever. "I'm not helping you guys for nothing. I want to live in peace with the Simpson family in the future." He helped Adrienne because he didn't want his wife to worry about Delmont.
