Every moment he had spent together with Eden burst into his mind.
He remembered his nervousness and happiness at that time. Seeing her smiling at him, he had felt sweet and delighted. The strangest thing was that he hadn't had a nightmare after he had gone back home that night.
Because he had got too many injuries since childhood, he was always afraid of being rejected, especially by the people he cared about. If he were rejected, he would feel very sad. His superficial cold-heartedness covered up his true feelings.
Victor put the photos back in the safe and then assigned his subordinates some work. After everything was well arranged, he left the company and went to the hospital. Now, the hospital became the focus of his life.
The employees of the Alwynn Group had been talking about what happened today.
As soon as Rebecca went out of the Alwynn Group, she drove back to the Jotham Alwynn Group immediately.
On the way, she called and explained everything to her subordinates, and asked them to transfer all the shares under her name to Vincent.
During the whole process, her face was very pale, and her hands were holding the steering wheel tightly. She was overtaking other cars and sounding the car horn along the way.
Rebecca had never expected she would suffer such pain again. She felt so painful that she was afraid she might be stuck in hell forever. She knew those videos were real. She had never thought things would turn out this way. Since more than ten years ago, she had been living in heaven all the time.
But now she had a feeling that she was going to hell. She was very reluctant. She had never thought she would end up like this. With her ability, she had never expected that she would be defeated so quickly.
Vincent suddenly called, and she quickly picked up the phone. "Vin." Her voice trembled uncontrollably.
"Mom, how are you doing now?"
Vincent's words made Rebecca feel a lump in her throat, and she almost broke down. But her face got full of anger in an instant. She shouted in a sharp voice, "Where the hell have you been in the past day? Now our company is facing such a severe crisis, why can't you grow up? Can't you be responsible like a man?"
Vincent kept silent on the other end of the line.
Rebecca continued, "Vin, I know it's useless to talk about this now. I have transferred all my shares to you. You have to remember that even if I die, you must keep the Jotham Alwynn Group under your control. It belongs to you. I have fought for it for 20 years. I did all the things for you! If you lose it, I will not be able to die in peace."
"Mom, Alex..." Vincent hesitated for a while and didn't go on asking the question.
Rebecca instantly tightened up, and a trace of nervousness flashed across her pale face. "Vin, what do you want to say?"
"He called me just now. He gave me his company and some shares of the Jotham Alwynn Group. Mom, are you two planning to go to jail together?" Vincent's attitude was lukewarm, and he didn't show any joy or gratefulness.
"Vincent, you..." Rebecca was so angry that her whole body trembled, and her tears kept flowing out of her eyes.
"He's your biological father. Do you still have a conscience? How dare you say such words!" Rebecca lost control and shouted out.
"Hah!" Vincent sneered and said, "I just feel ashamed to have such a biological father and such a mother. You have conspired to obtain the Jotham Alwynn Group, so you tried to murder my dad. Dad has been very strict with me since I was a child. Although I have always rebelled against him, I have always been grateful for his care for me. But mother, what have you done to me? You hurt the person I respect the most and prevented me from saving him. Mom, I am also in pain now."
"So, I can't treat Alex as my father now. I have accepted his company and shares. I will take care of the following things. Don't worry." After that, he hung up the phone.
