Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 492

When Anson heard this, he noticed Eden was suppressing her smile. He suddenly felt that he did have a quick tongue. He just couldn't correct this bad habit. Victor looked at Anson and could not help but smile. What was Anson thinking?

Anson glared at Victor, who was holding back laughter. He couldn't help but want to slap himself. Wasn't it just adding insult to injury?

"Humph," Lucian coughed intentionally and said in a plain voice, "We're going to be late."

He moved his long and slender legs and gracefully walked into the elevator.

Eden also knew that she didn't have enough time. Otherwise, she would have teased Anson more.

The four people entered the elevator, but they went all the way up to the 25th floor in silence.

The oppressive and quiet atmosphere made it hard for Eden to breathe.

But Victor was very comfortable. Among them, he was the happiest one now.

After walking out of the elevator, Anson broke the ice and said, "Victor, I've got a few candidates for the brand ambassador of our Fall Collection. I'll show them to you in a while."

"OK!" Victor nodded his head with an indifferent look.

As long as Victor entered the company, he would automatically enter work mode.

His facial expression had changed into a formalized one.

Victor glanced at Lucian and said, "Prepare for the review meeting!"

He hadn't been to the company for several days. He felt at ease off work, but when he began to work, he felt like ants on a hot pan.

"Got it!" Lucian nodded slightly and walked toward his office.

So did Anson.

Victor glanced at Eden and said with a smile, "Eden, you can expect me for lunch."

Eden glanced at him in silence. Then she turned around and walked to her office.

"This guy is even more clingy than Gia. I've had enough of it."

Victor smiled. Now they were coming to work together, getting off work together, and eating together. It felt so good!

He returned to his office after he watched Eden enter hers.

As soon as Eden walked in, she heard Amelia's voice. "Director Bleu, you finally came to work!"

Eden looked at her happy face and asked, "Amelia, I have been away for just a few days. You missed me already?"

"Yes!" Amelia smiled and nodded. "When you were not here, even Irene said that she was not used to it. We used to have review meetings to clarify the working process every morning before you got injured. She said she was not accustomed to not having the meetings."

They had watched the video of Haven apologizing.

And they had always believed that Director Bleu was innocent.

Eden smiled when she heard that. "Amelia, hurry up and get ready. We're going to attend Mr.

Alwynn's meeting now."

As a director, she had always been modest, so that she could make a good impression on people. Teamwork was the key to success. She needed a team who could share joys and hardships with her. Amelia turned around, picked up the files on the desk, and said, "Director Bleu, I'm ready. Our first batch of clothing samples has come out. So, we won't be busy until the brand ambassador is determined." Eden took a look at her and said with a smile, "Amelia, don't you think about goofing off at work. The Gienger family's company was acquired by the Alwynn Group, and it features in children's wear." Amelia looked at her in surprise. "Director Bleu, are you involved in the management of the new sub-7"

Eden suddenly smiled and said, "Amelia, it's better to involve than not. Salary will be doubled."

Amelia's eyes suddenly lit up. "Will I get a raise too?"

Eden smiled and said, "All of my team will have a salary raise. Don't worry! After the work of the Fall Collection, we will focus on the children's wear."

"Wow!" Amelia's face was full of expectation. She was short of money. As long as her salary was increased, she would rather work more.

"Please don't forget your promise when the time comes." Amelia reminded her again because she spent more than she earned recently.

Eden said while walking out, "You are my assistant, I won't forget you."

Amelia laughed excitedly and said, "Thank you! I'm going bankrupt these days."

Eden smiled and said, "Amelia, don't be so exaggerated."

Amelia suddenly pointed to her face and said, "Director Bleu, what do you see on my face?"

Eden burst into laughter, "Poverty!"

Amelia quickly nodded and said with a sad face, "You do know me too well. I am so poor that my pants are worn into holes and that I don't have any oil in my food! I can't fall asleep every night, doubting my life path!"

This was the first time Eden had heard someone crying about being poor like that.

The smile on her face faded slightly, and she asked, "Is your mother seriously ill?"

"Yes." Amelia's face was full of sadness. She whispered, "The doctor asked her to get tested for diabetes. Now she has to take medicine every day. She has already been diagnosed with hyperlipidemia and hypertension before, and it costs thousands of dollars a month. Occasionally, we can't make ends meet."

When Eden heard this, she looked at her sympathetically. "Are you the only child in your family?"

"I have a brother who doesn't care about it, and now I don't know where he is. There is no limit to the indulgence my parents show to him, while I was raised as if I had been picked up from the trash.

But my doted brother could do nothing but make trouble. At the critical moment, he is useless. My parents are farmers with no insurance. Now my mom is sick, and I am the only one in my family who is holding

on."

Amelia knew Eden's character and told the truth.

Although money couldn't buy everything, it could bring confidence to people.

Recently, she had been pressed so hard that she could hardly breathe. But she must endure it no matter how tired or aggrieved she was.

She couldn't leave her mother alone. She had thought that after her brother graduated from college, her family's life would be much better.

Unexpectedly, no matter where her brother had gone to work, it had never lasted more than a month. He couldn't make a penny, and his family had to keep giving him money.

Sometimes, people would lower themselves to the bottom of the earth because of money.

She was now carrying responsibilities on her

shoulders, and she couldn't do anything at will.

Sometimes, she felt that even if she had tried her best, it was still like walking on thin ice.

Eden heard this and said, "Spare the rod, spoil the child. The old sayings always make sense."

Amelia nodded with a gloomy face and said, "Yes, my parents doted on him when he was a child for fear that he would suffer a little grievance. But what about me? When I was wronged, I didn't even dare to say it. Otherwise, they would think I was much too annoying."

Eden wanted to say something, but she suddenly noticed they had arrived at the conference room.

She swallowed it back, and the two of them walked in.

Victor had already been reading the documents in the conference room, sitting in the president's seat.

As soon as Eden entered, Irene waved to her.

Eden smiled to greet her and went to her seat.
