Chapter 1869
Victor felt her gaze and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
He knew that he was very handsome, and Eden often peeked at him.
Every time he saw her peeking at him, he was in a particularly good mood.
"Nothing. I just feel that it is really good to have you by my side." Eden said with a smile.
Victor's heart was melted.
This was not the first time he had heard such words, but he was very touched every time he heard it.
Being needed by someone he loved really have him strong feelings of pride.
Victor held her hand more tightly. They looked at each other, and there was no need to say how much they loved each other.
Victor and Eden did not look back deliberately. Several bodyguards were protecting them secretly, so they were not worried. Once the man appeared, Victor would know it immediately.
It took them more than twenty minutes to find the snack street. The street was bustling in the morning, humming with activity and life.
"Wow! Brown sugar cake! I haven't eaten it for a long time." Eden pointed at the cake and asked Victor to buy it.
Victor didn't like dessert, so he just bought a piece of cake for Eden.
After walking for a while, they suddenly saw a restaurant. Without saying anything, Victor took Eden in it.
There were all kinds of delicious food in the restaurant, like hamburgers, sandwiches, bread, salad and so on. Eden felt very hungry just by looking at the food.
They picked some food they liked. Eden liked the salad and sandwiches. However, she had just eaten a piece of brown sugar cake, so she couldn't eat too much. In the end, she was stuffed to the gills. After coming out of the restaurant, they walked back, but Eden did not see the man following them.
Eden frowned and looked around. Would they fail that day?
That was possible. The man was very vigilant, and he wouldn't expose himself so soon.
They hung out for an entire afternoon, but there was nothing strange, so Victor took Eden back home.
Eden looked at him, "He seems to be quite cautious."
"Yep." Victor nodded slightly.
"Then I'll go out again tomorrow. Don't follow me anymore. I will go out alone. Just ask someone to follow me secretly. Nothing bad will happen." Victor was tall and strong, so the man would naturally be afraid of him. How would he show up?
Victor nodded helplessly. If he could not find out the man, both of them would feel uneasy and disturbed in their hearts.
After discussing, Eden acted according to their plan every day.
She got up and went running every morning. Her phone was located by Victor, and the bodyguards followed her secretly to protect her. Only in this way could Victor rest assured.
Two days had passed, but the man hadn't appeared. Eden was not in a hurry. She had a lot of time. However, since the man had followed her for so long, he might not have enough time to waste.
When she saw him that day, his clothes were cheap. For the sake of his life, he could not hide from her all the time.
On the fifth day, Victor had a video conference. She thought about going to the snack street to buy some snacks as their dinner.
Their villa and the snack street were only separated by a river, but the two places seemed to be two different worlds.
The snack street was bustling, while the villa area was cheerless.
Eden walked at a brisk pace. Although she walked quickly, it would take her an hour to come back.
There weren't many pedestrians on the road. The leaves on the parasol trees had turned yellow, and the ground was scattered with leaves. She found that there were many parasol trees on both sides of the roads in River City, and there were flowers on both sides of the sidewalks.
Eden bought some salad and cold meat. Then she had to go back on the same way.
This road was a little remote. She had been taking this road in the past few days.
The autumn wind was very comfortable. When the wind blew on her face, she didn't feel cold at all. Instead, she was relaxed and refreshed.
She held a chicken leg and walked while eating.
Around the corner was the villa area. She had been observing the surroundings in the past few days. If the man wanted to hurt her, this place was the most suitable. Eden lowered her head to eat the chicken leg. Suddenly, a dark shadow loomed out of the murk.
She was stunned, and she felt a disgusting smell.
She raised her head. It was the man she had seen that day. It had been more than half a month, and he was a complete mess.
The warm sun elongated his figure, and his face looked horribly gloomy under the sun.
He finally showed up.
Eden pretended to be scared and took a few steps back, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
The man kept a straight face and did not speak. He approached her step by step.
Eden glanced at his drooping hands. He moved one hand forward slightly. Under the sunlight, the edge of a knife reflected the bright light.
Eden was startled. She saw the point of a knife in his sleeve.
Eden's heart skipped a beat.
When she looked into his melancholy eyes, his eyes were filled with hostility and hatred in an instant.
His face was very haggard. It seemed that he hadn't slept for a long time, and his eyes were completely bloodshot.
It was terrifyingly scarlet.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"I want you to die!" The man said quickly in a hoarse voice, which was extremely terrifying.
Eden felt as if her heart had been tugged by something, and it was so uncomfortable.
What kind of hatred made him want to kill her recklessly?
Eden's expression changed in the dappled shade. At this time, she was not pretending to be afraid. She was truly scared. She saw real viciousness in the man's eyes.
"Since you want to kill me, you should at least give me a reason." Eden's voice was dry. She had offended many people. However, others bullied her on their own initiative in most cases. She just took revenge on them occasionally.
She could not be bullied without fighting back.
"You... ruined Ciara's life!" The man said very furiously and excitedly.
"Ciara..." Eden immediately understood.
She looked at the man's excited face and frowned slightly, "Who are you?"
"I am her fiance." The man said without any hesitation.
"Does she have a fiance?"
"I am her finance! Do you know how painful she has been during this period of time? She cries every night! Being an actress is her dream. But you ruined her dream just by saying a few words!" The man was so excited and took another step forward.
"You're rich and powerful, so you can ruin someone else's life with just a few word. How can you be so cruel..."
Eden had completely calmed down at this time. She looked at the excited man with clear eyes and asked, "Did she tell you why I terminated the contract with her?"
"You terminated the contract with her for no reason! She didn't even know why she was fired. She cries bitterly everyday. Why are you rich people so heartless? Do you know how much she had done in order to become an actress?"
Eden nodded. It turned out that the man had been used.
"Calm down. I'll tell you the reason why I terminated the contract with her."
"I won't listen to you! You rich people are always reasonable. You regard us as humble ants!" The man was so mad that he took out the dagger in his sleeve.
