Of course, nothing was more important than their friendship.
Lucian suddenly looked up at Victor's arrogant gaze and asked with a smile, "You seem to be in a good mood today. Is there anything good news?"
Victor smiled smugly, "Lucian, you're really something. You actually see me through. My wife is pregnant again. I am super amazing, aren't I?"
Victor's voice was full of joy and he said in a very proud manner.
Lucian was speechless.
He gave Victor a thumbs- up, "You're really amazing."
Victor raised his eyebrows with satisfaction and said arrogantly again, "My wife wants to tell me on my birthday, but my sister spilled the beans by accident. Just pretend that I didn't say anything just now and ignore my
words."
Lucian was helpless. Could he ignore his words?
"Look at how arrogant you are. Since I can't tell others, why did you say it to me?" Lucian looked at him with a look of disgust.
Victor said righteously, "Because I am proud!"
"What a shameless man!" Lucian thought.
It was not of Victor's style at all.
"So, did you let Eden get pregnant like this?"
Victor smiled slowly, "Can't I? She is my legal wife." After saying that, Victor smiled proudly again. His smile was so imposing, as if he had got something very precious in the world.
"Tut- tut..." Lucian smacked his lips. If he continued to stay here, he would definitely get goosebumps all over.
"I'm leaving. Don't call me if you have nothing to say." Lucian hugged himself before turning around to leave.
Victor looked at Lucian's back and still smiled cheerfully.
He glanced at the time and made the plan for lunch.
Then he picked up the phone and called Eden's office.
Eden was looking at the design draft. That day, she had to go to the factory to complete the final procedure, and then Summer's wedding dress would be completely made. She could complete the task on time.
Thinking of this, Eden became very excited.
The phone suddenly rang. Eden looked down and found that it was Victor calling her.
She glanced at Amelia, who was working with her head down, and then picked up the phone.
Before she could speak, Victor said with a smile, "Honey, what would you like to eat? I'll ask the hotel staff to send it here."
Eden thought about it. She was not very hungry. In the morning, her mother had made her a nutritious meal and she was a little full.
"I don't want to eat anything." Eden answered him.
Victor was speechless. How could she not eat? There was a baby in her belly!
They were his daughter and wife, so he couldn't starve them.
"Darling, you have to eat. How about this? I'll ask the staff in River City Restaurant to bring you some porridge you like. The flavor is mild, and you like it."
Eden's heart ached when she heard this. The porridge in River City Restaurant was super expensive, and a meal there was enough for them to pay for their monthly living expenses.
She was about to raise four children, and she couldn't spend extravagantly.
"Victor, I'll go to the cafeteria to eat some rice porridge. Could you please save some money?" At this moment, Eden acted like a miser.
Her mood became complicated.
Victor was speechless.
"Honey, we're not short of money."
Eden glanced at the phone and really wanted to hang up.
They should save some money just in case! It was the ancient wisdom.
Was he the richest man in the world? How could he say such words so easily?
"Victor, the rice porridge in the canteen is delicious and light. Moreover, it's free and I won't suffer from excessive internal heat by eating it. I'll go to the canteen, and you don't have to order lunch for me." She hated to be poor, so she always lived frugally.
She couldn't waste money like this.
Victor wanted to hung up the phone and rush over to explain to her that he was actually very wealthy. Even though she ate sumptuous meals everyday, he could afford it.
But Eden live a frugal life. She spent as less money as she could.
"Honey, no, rice porridge isn't nutritious. I'll be responsible for your meals in the future. I'll pick you up at 11 o'clock." Victor finished his words and hung up the phone.
When Eden heard his last sentence, she was rendered speechless. They were so close to each other. Did he have to pick her up?
