The planning meeting had lasted for more than an hour. Eden sat taking notes of every proposal put forward. After returning to her office, she started to work again.
Among her most memorable moments in the past few years was the time when she had gained success. Every time she looked back on it, she felt quite lucky.
Later, she found Anson was not in the office. Hadn't he come back yet?
Eden took a look at her cell phone. It was almost lunchtime for Ricky.
Today, he was shooting on location, and he would do stunts in the air with wire ropes. She was quite worried about him.
So, she called him.
Eden hadn't expected the call to be answered immediately.
"Hi Mom, how are you doing? Have you eaten yet?" Ricky asked happily.
Eden smiled, "I am well, and I will go to have lunch soon. You told me that you were shooting on location today. Have you finished?"
"There is one more fight scene in the afternoon. And we will shoot in a studio tomorrow. Please don't worry. Abigail is taking good care of me!"
"Ricky, I know she is. Is Abigail in a better mood recently?"
"Uncle Anson has been accompanying her these past few days. He and Abigail dined out and went shopping every day. Sometimes, they went to the movies, and I hung out with them several times. But this morning, he has already returned home. I bought a gift for you, and Uncle Anson will pass it on to you. I'm sure you will like it."
"Wow, you're so sweet!" Eden smiled happily.
"Baby, promise me you will take good care of yourself during the shooting."
"Mom, I promise you. Please go to have your lunch now. I need to recite the lines first. I have a lot of lines."
"OK! My son is working hard."
Eden hung up the phone, feeling somewhat sorry for Ricky.
She then smiled slightly and recalled the hard days. Luckily, she had three children with her. They had made her full of positive energy and fearless to any difficulties. Her face was full of an irresistible pride now.
There was nothing to be afraid of when you encountered difficulties. Every cloud had a silver lining. As long as you didn't give up on yourself, you would have another opportunity in your life.
When Eden got to her feet, tidying up her desk, Amelia got back from the bathroom.
She stood at the door and said, "Director Bleu, let's go to lunch."
"OK!" Eden nodded.
She turned off the computer and walked to Amelia.
They would go to the company's canteen.
As soon as she got out of the office, she met Victor and Lucian.
Victor looked at her. She was still wearing flat shoes, so he assumed that her feet were not recovered yet.
When Victor suddenly came into her sight, Eden thought of Amelia's words. She couldn't help but look at him.
He was wearing an expensive hand-made shirt and black trousers as usual. He had well-defined facial features and flawless skin. His thin lips looked ruthless but extremely attractive.
Victor looked at her quietly and slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
Lucian took a small step forward. There was not much emotion on his handsome face. He glanced at the two women and said with a lukewarm attitude, "Hello, Director Bleu and Miss Amelia. Lunch together?"
Eden nodded slightly,"Sure!"
