Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 597

She shook her head with a smile and said, "Mum, I've just been with my teacher. I haven't seen Vincent and have no idea where he's gone." Vincent Alwynn, you'd better not let me get any evidence of your cheating on me or I will make you regret it when the time comes for a divorce.

Haven thought mockingly that she had absolutely no intention of spending the rest of her life with Vincent because she could have chosen a much better man.

Vincent was such a b*stard, and she would dump him without mercy.

Rebecca frowned and looked around the lobby to see that only the staff were remaining and that everyone else had left.

Her eyes were filled with resentment. During her absence from the company, Vincent had really become more and more arrogant, and now she wondered where he had gone with that woman again. "Let's go first and forget about him!" She got angry at the sight of Vincent. So out of sight, out of mind.

Haven had an unpleasant look on her face. Vincent should have accompanied that woman and it seemed that they could start collecting evidence from now on.

She gave Rebecca a complicated look. Rebecca would agree to this marriage in order to please Phillip.

They dare not refute Phillip's words; after all, Phillip still holds the real power.

She then turned to Paulina, "Miss Clark, Glad to know you! Would I have the pleasure of taking you to dinner? I haven't been in the business long and I still have a lot to learn from you." Haven said humbly. Paulina smiled prettily, which made her even more stunningly beautiful, "It's an honour to meet you too, so let's go!"

Paulina thought that it would be in her interest to get to well acquainted with them as Rebecca was Victor's stepmother and Haven was his sister-in-law.

Although it was rumoured that the relationship between them was not good, it was important for her to get to know Victor first.

"Ok!" Rebecca nodded. Looking at Paulina's eyes that flashed from time to time, she knew that this person was not a simple character.

The three of them slowly walked out of the lobby, by which time it was already dark.

The metropolitan city was brightly lit up at night, and the flashing colourful neon lights made the streets look gorgeous and dazzlingly prosperous.

Victor took Eden to the most luxurious hotel in River City, the Marriott Hotel.

Eden looked at the illuminated building and asked in confusion, "Victor, why are we here?"

Victor looked at the hotel building in front of him, above which colourful strobe lights were flashing and rotating with a constant gradation of light and shadow.

With a gorgeous smile, he said, "Eden, do you know this hotel?"

Eden replied, "Victor, isn't this the most popular hotel recently, the Marriott Hotel? I heard that the prices here is very high and only VIP clients can enjoy their most prestigious services. But why are you asking me this?" She had only heard of it a little, and wasn't too sure about it.

Hearing her reply, Victor knew she hadn't understood what he meant.

He spoke in a low tone: "Once there was a little girl who had a dream to build a luxurious castle when she grew up. She even gave it the name Marriott. Every birthday she was marking the right number on the calendar, which showed she was closer to her dream, and that was the thing that made the little girl happiest." At that time, he doted on Eden and would spend all his pocket money taking her out and buying her snacks.

It was when he looked at the happy smile of the little girl that he could feel the warmth in his life.

Eden stared blankly at the soft-eyed man in front of her, only to see a mist of water under his dark eyes, as if he was remembering a heartfelt memory.

"So, you started the company to build me a castle?" Eden got choked up. It was a memory that belonged only to them.

With every thing he did, he was guiding the little girl who never came back and showing that little girl the way home.

It was a fond memory between them, but how could he have imagined that the little girl had completely forgotten him. Even if he tried very hard, she still couldn't find her way home.

Eden wondered how she could have kept such an affectionate and stubborn man waiting for her.

Victor nodded, "Eden, I didn't expect you to lose your memory. When you were little, you only

played with me, not Vincent, not Adalynn, and not your sister. You loved to follow me around. We even slept in the same bed when we were little. But it's a pity you don't remember all that." He still remembered that the little girl would quietly appear in his room during thunderstorms.

"Victor, you're afraid of thunder, so I'm here to keep you company." At that time he felt happy to hear that.

In those days they had the purest of friendships and their adults were close to each other.

He was very patient with her and Eden loved spending time with him too, and she didn't even go home for dinner when he was home.

As a result, the adults joked that since Eden liked him so much, she would marry him when she grew up.

He was dismissive at the time, who would marry such a clingy little girl?

But when he lost her, he realised how much he really liked having this little girl by his side.

Now, as long as she could spend the rest of the time with him, everything would be worth it.

Eden was moved to smile with tears in her eyes. Before, she could also appreciate the affection he had for her.

But at this moment, his genuine affection shocked her more than ever.

It was only at this moment that she seemed to truly understand Victor's sincere love.

"You little fool, why are you crying? Are you being moved to tears? Why are you crying even more than when you were a little?"

"I'm not crying." Eden wiped the tears off her face covertly and then said pitifully, "I'm hungry."

Victor let out a soft laugh. After all he'd said, all he'd gotten in return was a comment from her that she was hungry.

Victor replied spoilingly, "Eden, let's go for your favourite lobster now."
