Seeing that the woman did not follow his suggestion, Eden said nothing more and sat beside Stefan to drink with him.
As he had expected, the next moment, Stefan warned coldly, "You want to go to hell or what?"
His look scared the woman who thought she had seen Death itself. She shuddered while taking her hands off. Then she hurried to leave the room.
Eden could see that the woman was apparently trembling.
He sneered and silently sipped the alcohol.
That was the consequence of ignoring a nice suggestion.
The glass was soon emptied as Stefan was determined to get himself drunk.
Eden narrowed his eyes and dissuaded, "Don't drink like that. It's not good for your health."
With his head tilted back, Stefan finished the last of his drink and said in a low voice, "Ease. It won't kill me."
Certainly, Eden knew what he meant.
It was not lethal; thus, he didn't have to worry.
But how could he not worry about Stefan seeing him behave like that?
Eden pressed his lips together, "Martha still wants a divorce?"
Stefan's eyes darkened. Apparently, he didn't want to hear that name.
Eden had no intention of hurting him. He changed the subject instantly, "Have you seen the child?"
"Yes, I stayed a while with him. Though he's reluctant to admit that I'm his father, I know he needs me."
"I didn't take the parental responsibility."
Eden sighed and comforted him softly, "It was because you were unaware of his existence."
But it didn't comfort him at all. He was still frustrated and said in a hoarse voice, "I should have recognized him."
If he couldn't recognize his own son, how could he expect the child to admit him as a father?
Speaking of that, he felt a pang in his stomach.
His face turned pale, and his brow furrowed as he was leaning against the couch.
