Seeing that everyone was immersed in the sorrow of losing Eden, she could not bear but come over.
As soon as she went out, Abigail parked the car in front of her.
She smiled bitterly, "Hop in."
Graciella also smiled and get in the car.
She asked, "Did you tell Jasper?"
Abigail’s hands held the steering wheel tightly. She shook her head and said, "No. He’s on a business trip. I am afraid that he will not be able to accept such a whammy. He called me today, said that he felt uneasy, and asked about Eden and the kids. He had a hunch. After all, he loves Eden deeply. But I didn't tell him the truth."
"If I did, he might have come back."
Graciella forced a smile, and her eyes were moist. She looked at Abigail and said, "Why didn't we have a hunch? We could have gone with her, or stopped her." If she and Abby had accompanied Eden at that time, Eden would not have been in such trouble.
Until this moment, she still couldn't believe that Eden was lying in the hospital, relying on a breathing machine to live.
Eden’s pure and bright smile emerged in her mind.
Abigail took a deep breath painfully and sniffed. She opened the car window, letting cold air in, which made her much more awake. "Seven years ago, I ran into Eden while driving too. We knew each other because of this accident and became best friends..."
Along the way, Abigail told Graciella about everything between Eden and her. At the same time, she also recalled every sweet moment she spent with Eden.
......
When Haven returned home, she found that the atmosphere in the house was very depressing.
She had been hanging out with Paulina today. She wanted Paulina to buy the shares of the Clement family so she kept trying to convince Paulina.
On the way back, she saw the news and felt happy secretly. However, finding out that her family knew Eden’s identity still made her anxious.
But what could they do? They still did not bring Eden back, and she was still the only daughter of the Clement family.
"Dad, mom, grandma, what happened? Why do you look so bad?" She asked with a worried face deliberately.
Aisling looked at Haven with an irritated expression.
However, grandma Clement answered first, "Don't worry, we won't go bankrupt, and you don't need to rush to the Alwynn family."
Haven was speechless. This old woman never had any good words for her.
"Grandma, did I do something? Why did grandma say that to me? This’s my family, forever."
Grandma Clement sneered and said, "Really? You better think so. We’ve got a trouble, but it's none of your business. Go and have a rest."
Hearing this, Haven knew grandma was talking about Eden.
However, whether Eden would survive or not was still unknown.
She hoped that the woman would never wake up. Then, everything in the Clement family would belong to her.
Wait, she thought to herself, now they have no mood for the company, I must make good use of this period.
As thinking, Haven pursed his lips slightly and go upstairs.
Aisling looked at Haven’s back, knowing that Haven must have seen the news of Eden's accident. She was furious seeing Haven appear in front of her as if nothing had happened.
Rebecca sat at the dressing table, looking nervous, and texted Alex.
The knock at the door made her even more distraught.
Graciella's words were like a bomb that exploded in her heart, making her feel a fear that she had never experienced before.
"Alex, Lucian and Eden's son are both computer masters. You sure you didn’t neglect anything?" Rebecca confirmed again.
Alex replied quickly, "Why don't you believe me? I’ve checked in the security room and I’m sure that all the cameras in the parking lot were turned off! But there’s another problem. The police are investigating the reason why the cameras were closed. My friend keeps calling me so I said I was doing something intimate with you in the car. I asked him not to tell the police about it. My friend owes me one and you don't have to worry that he will expose us."
Seeing his reply, Rebecca still felt uneasy.
"Mom!" Outside the door, Vincent's voice was getting more and more angry.
Rebecca went mad. She quickly got up to open the door.
"What do you want? Vincent, it's the middle of the night! Can't I have a break?"
Vincent looked at her with deep eyes and asked, "Mom, the accident. Did you really do that?"
Rebecca avoided his eyes and said, "It's none of your business. You just need to manage the company well. You must take the management right from your dad, so the company will become ours completely."
Vincent stared at his mother in front of him, as if he didn’t know her. Through her expression, he knew that his mother was serious about what she had said. She really hurt Eden.
"Mom, she’s pregnant. For God's sake, how could you do it?!"
Rebecca was stunned because of Vincent's angry roar.
