Chapter 278
Chapter 278
Riley had been fired by the Alwynn Group today. Hence, Myra would have one less person to help her.
Eden had something to do with this incident. Thus, Myra hated Eden even more.
She was extremely suspicious that Eden was Cyan because Eden didn't drink the mango juice. She would give her a big gift later.
Aisling didn't agree with what Victor said. In her heart, Victor was the best candidate to be her son- in-law.
She had always thought that Eden's appearance had diverted Victor's attention and Eden was the one who had snatched Victor away.
Furthermore, Haven had also told her that Eden pestered Victor every day.
"Victor, I'm good at reading a person's character. You always do things in a steady manner. Don't be fooled by this woman." When Aisling had finished speaking, she glanced at Eden with disgust.
She smiled mockingly and said, "Eden, you can't afford to cling onto an aristocratic family like Victor' s. He doesn't lack anything, especially women."
Henrick couldn't stand it any longer. He raised his head hard, looked at Aisling with a smile, and spoke before Eden could say anything. He said in a soft and adorable voice, "This lady, I know that rich people like you live well and don't lack anything. The only things that you lack are fundamental qualities and public morality."
Henrick spoke the truth. A sense of guilt arose from the bottom of Aisling’s heart when she saw the bright smile on Henrick’s handsome face.
What had she said in front of the child just now?
She was just too impulsive just now.
Eden glanced at Ricky with appreciation. He had grown up and knew how to protect her.
"Ricky, you are awesome. Don't be like some people when you grow up. Don't simply accuse someone when you don't know anything." Abigail walked to Eden's side with a smile.
She stroked Ricky's head as she smiled charmingly.
"I won't be like that because Mom has always taught me to respect the elders and love the young." She was also very cooperative with Abigail. His bright smile had covered up his bitterness a while ago.
Aisling felt as though she was slapped in the face.
"How can you speak like that? People with financial difficulties are indeed ambitious. Director Bleu, you have really taught your child very well. Is this the so-called respect for the elders and love for the young?
I think it's just a case of sour grapes." Haven couldn't help but speak out. It was very common that poor people seduced rich people because of jealousy.
Haven had seen many people using this kind of means before.
Eden said with a sneer, "Miss Clement, you can tell whether the grapes are sour or sweet only when you eat them.
It is time for me to work. I will accompany you to taste the sourness. You'd better go back and rinse your mouth if your teeth couldn't take it." After saying that, Eden left while carrying Ricky in her
arms.
Haven clenched her fist slightly when she heard that.
Eden's footsteps were very quick. Ever since she regained consciousness seven years ago, she had warned herself that she would not surrender regardless of the difficulties she encountered. If no one helped her when she fell, she would have to stand up gracefully on her own.
Victor did not say anything and followed Eden.
Abigail walked to Aisling's side. She was half a head taller than Aisling. She looked at Aisling and smiled coldly, "Mrs. Clement, don't think that you can bully a single mother because you are rich. Eden is kinder than any of you.
Actions speak louder than words. Stop judging a hard-working and motivated woman.
The words that come out from your mouth easily might hurt a person to the core. Please be kind when you speak, Mrs. Clement."
Abigail's tone was frivolous and her gaze was sharp. When she finished speaking, she chased after Eden confidently and elegantly.
Aisling was stunned and stood at the same spot. She had never been as humiliated as she was today.
Anson looked at Aisling in disappointment.
He looked at Myra and Haven with a cold expression and said indifferently, "You're still on pronation. Do you want to be late?"
He quickly left them after that and went to chase after Abigail.
He looked at Abigail's charming back and thought of what she had just said. He raised the corners of his mouth and his eyes deepened.
Was she also a good woman?
Anson was praying from the bottom of his heart at the moment and asking God to help him. He would feel that he owned the entire world if God gave him a chance to be with Abigail.
Myra smiled and said, "Manager Skye, we will go back to work right now." She pulled Haven's hand after that.
Haven looked at Aisling with concern. "Mom..."
"Go to work. I'll go back to rest first." After saying that, Aisling left with her head down.
She didn't even glance at Haven.
Haven felt unsatisfied as she looked at Aisling's hobbled footsteps.
She knew Aisling's personality very well and she was aware that she couldn't control her. As a matter of fact, she couldn't control any one in the Clement family.
Aisling was the only one who would listen to her.
However, Haven was still not the most important person in Aisling's heart.
Eden was the most important person in Aisling's heart. Haven could never replace Eden no matter what she did.
"Haven, let's go. We'll be scolded again if we are late." Myra turned around and left as she spoke.
She was in a hurry to watch a good show.
Haven turned around with a gloomy expression on her face and followed behind Myra.
"Eden, are you alright?" Victor asked after following
Eden for some time.
Henrick walked on his own after he woke up because he didn't want Eden to be tired.
Eden held his hand and they chatted as they walked. They didn't seem to care about what had happened a while ago.
When Eden heard Victor's words, she looked back at Victor and shook her head with a smile. She said calmly, "Mr. Alwynn, don't worry. I'm fine."
She could understand why Aisling targeted her so much.
However, she would never forgive Aisling for what she said to her even though she understood her situation.
Victor looked at Eden worriedly. He wanted to defend Aisling initially but he said nothing in the end.
He treasured everything he had at the moment even more because he had lost them before.
He could not bear to let Eden suffer the slightest harm.
Only the heart knew how tired he really was.
His explanation for Aisling's behalf vanished completely at that moment.
Victor stepped forward and said guiltily, "Eden, I'm
sorry!"
Eden shook her head. "Mr. Alwynn, I'm really fine." She was smiling calmly but deep down, she still felt a little uncomfortable. She probably still could not let everything go.
Perhaps she would let go of everything and would not feel tired anymore after walking for a while. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
In fact, a person who was great at making friends, would realize that not everyone would treat him well. He should be grateful to those who treated him in a lukewarm manner because he could see the facts clearly.
