The manager took a sharp look at them. Although they lowered their heads, they could feel his hostility.
He warned them in a low voice, "One of you must have done something bad. If you come forward and admit it, we won't call the police. However, if we find it out by ourselves, you'll have no choice but to go to jail."
"The dress is worth two hundred thousand dollars, and you know how many years you'll be imprisoned, right? Mrs. Alwynn is right here. It's up to you."
The three shopping assistants immediately looked up at the manager and shook their heads quickly.
The manager laughed and said, "Do you think I won't know the truth if you don't admit it?"
"Since you did such a thing, you must have been paid. As long as I check your accounts, I will know who it is."
Sure enough, the manager's threat really worked.
The short shopping assistant looked very uneasy.
Eden and the manager looked at each other. Eden said, "Get someone to check the surrounding security cameras. Then we'll know it."
Although the security camera in the shop was broken, the cameras in other places were all right.
"I see." The manager looked at the short shopping assistant apathetically and turned to get the surveillance video.
Victor had arrived. His imposing temperament and straight figure made him the center of people's attention.
When the three shopping assistants saw Victor's cold face, they were scared out of their wits.
Delia saw Victor as well. She immediately walked to Victor with joy and said, "Victor, it's you."
She looked calm, as if she was very familiar with Victor.
Victor did not look at her. Instead, he walked to Eden and looked down at her, "Honey, what happened?"
Delia was stunned. Why was he so indifferent?
But she didn't expect that Victor would come here because of such a trifle.
Eden smiled, "We'll know the truth later."
It was the first time that others had seen them so closely. They whispered to each other happily.
"In ordinary times, I can only read the news about them on the Internet. It seems that they're really a perfect match."
"Yes, Mrs. Alwynn looks very gentle. Women should know themselves well enough. In love, the stubborn ones will only suffer. Most men can be persuaded by reason but not be cowed by force. I heard that Mrs. Alwynn is very tender, and she is very nice to Mr. Alwynn. No wonder they love each other so much."
"That's right. It's normal for husband and wife to argue with each other. As long as they could communicate with each other and trust each other, they could always be on good terms. They'll love each other more and more because of trust."
"One of my relatives works in Alwynn Group. I heard that they work in the same office. Mr. Alwynn dotes on Mrs. Alwynn very much, which is so enviable."
"Yeah, Eden is an excellent designer. Since she came back, Alwynn Group has been developing better and better. Victor is about to become the richest man in this country. My husband said that Victor is much wealthier than we think. It's just that he keeps a low profile."
People kept whispering to each other. The woman who said these words was standing behind Delia. As Delia listened to her, her heart was filled with jealousy.
Who didn't know Victor and Eden's love story in River City?
Eden glanced at Victor and then looked at Delia. She asked with a smile, "Victor, Miss Jones is greeting you."
Victor said, "I don't know her."
Eden was speechless.
Victor saw the expression flashing across her eyes. She knew that he was pretending, and she looked so cute at this moment.
Why was she so adorable?
Victor couldn't help but rub her head and took her hand to touch his face.
