Victor answered, "Yes, I tried to find you. But you disappeared after that night, so I failed." at that time, he always put the winning in business in the first place and didn't have enough energy to find a woman.
These years he and Rebecca really got rancorous.
"At that time, Rebecca wanted to change Alwynn Group into Jotham Alwynn Group and I didn't agree. Therefore she chose to use dirty tricks. I was too focused on business, so I ignored her tricks. Then that happened, that thing that we all know."
He took a deep breath and continued, "But Eden, I am incomparably happy about that night. At that time, fate had already connected us." If he had continued to investigate, perhaps he would have found her earlier.ier.
"Once my business stabilized, I went to the orphanage around the country to find you, but I will return disappointed again and again. Whenever I couldn't hold on, I would take out our photos, and listen to the recording of you. Do you know? Your smiling face and soft sound gave me inexhaustible power."
Fortunately, he was not confused or flustered even he failed to find her so many times. Finally, his expectations came true.
Eden looked back at him, "But Rebecca still succeed."
Victor nodded. He pulled out a bitter smile and said, "Yes, I lost. Rebecca got away with her trickery on that night when I was with you. She fuddled my father. My parents gave their all to the Jotham Alwynn Group. It was the No.1 in River City. But these years, it gradually degenerated."
Sometimes, he wondered whether it was retribution because his father had left his mother so heartlessly.
Seeing Victor clenched his fist and the pain in his face, Eden's feeling was getting more and more complicated. She knew that he had lived a hard life over the years.
"Ahhh...!" Eden lowered her head and shook her head hard.
Victor stared, "Eden..."
"Shut up!" Eden glared at him.
Victor nodded, "Okay, okay. I won't talk. Don't be angry."
"You liar! Jerk! Why do you make me in a dilemma? What should I do now? should I forget the happy time we spent together? Or should I forget the harm you did to me? Tell me, what should I do?" Eden looked at him with anger. She was humorsome at that moment.
"Honey, honey, calm down. We need time to figure it out. I know you can’t accept it right now. But I want you to know, I cherish every second with you. You are like the sunshine in winter that always makes me feel the warmth. You are my everything." he gazed at her calmly with his black and bright eyes.
Eden closed her eyes and took a slow breath.
