Victor suddenly cast a chill look at Rebecca. The smile on his lips was getting deeper, but it was extremely cold. Though he looked weary, he was still handsome, and he was exuding a brooding vibe.
When Rebecca met his eyes, she had a feeling of suffocation. He looked as if he were sure to win, which made her quite panic.
She just wanted to seize the opportunity when Victor was worrying about Eden and had no time to think about other things.
"Didn't you ask these reporters to report our family affairs? Don't you just want to create a big scandal and let me give my father to you under the pressure of the public opinions? How can you blame me for making a buzz?" His voice was cold and emotionless.
Rebecca had a sense of shame.
She tried her best to maintain her smile and pretended to tremble while looking at Victor. Outsiders would think she was very afraid of him. "Victor, calm down. I just want to know if your father is all right. Since his accident, I haven't seen him once. I have always been worried about him."
Rebecca's words sounded quite earnest, and she began to cry again.
At the sight of this, the reporters all felt that Victor was too heartless.
Victor was well-known in River City for being a man of action, making his enemies frightened.
He had made many people go bankrupt overnight.
When Rebecca pretended to be weak, people would have an illusion that Victor was making things difficult for her because she was a homewrecker.
Most people would be convinced Rebecca was the downtrodden one.
The people who were watching the live broadcast at this moment all believed the story she had made up.
Grandma Clement, Aisling, and Wyatt had also seen the news.
Grandma Clement's face was full of anger. "Hmph! Rebecca is such a drama queen. It's a pity that she is not an actress. No! If she plays any role in a movie, she will definitely disgust a lot of the audience.
She must be forced into a corner so she had to adopt this approach. She can't find Phillip, so she could only use this stupid trick. But she is not worried about Phillip but about that her high status and great wealth will be gone."
Aisling looked sad. She was not in the mood to talk about anything because she was worried about her daughter. She had been restless day and night, and she looked very haggard.
Wyatt looked at Aisling worriedly. "Aisling, why don't you go take a rest?"
Aisling shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not tired. Have you called Victor? How is Eden?"
"I've called him. He told us not to worry. Eden's vital signs are very stable, and the doctors are trying their best."
"Good!" Aisling nodded in a trance.
Wyatt saw that she was in a bad state, so he could only follow closely behind her.
grandma Clement looked at her weary face and said, "Go to sleep. Everyone will be worried about you if you look like this. God blesses the good man. Everything will be fine. My granddaughter won't be so weak. She will definitely wake up. We have to believe in her! We have to pull ourselves together and wait."
"You're right, Mom. You should also have a rest." Aisling took a look at Rebecca, who was on the air, with hatred in her eyes.
She got up, dragged herself out of her lethargy, and go upstairs.
Grandma Clement continued to watch the news.
Rebecca suddenly did not want to see the so-called evidence. She was afraid that Victor did have evidence in his hands. If so, she would not be able to leave here today.
She said with tears in her eyes, "Victor, I'm not asking for anything else. I only hope that your father can come back to me safe and sound."
Victor glanced at her indifferently and asked, "Really? Aren't you afraid that my father will come back alive and tell the world about your crimes and let people how he was pushed down the stairs?"
