Chapter 44
Eden felt his burning gaze on her and was very puzzled. It seemed like Victor liked to stare at her. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Was there something on her face?
She did not wear any makeup today. But since she was not working today, he could not make any comment about her physical appearance.
She suddenly looked up and was about to ask Victor why he stared at her. But then, the waiter walked over with their orders.
The warm food made Eden feel extremely happy at that moment.
This porridge tasted very similar to her mother's recipe.
Victor said to the waiter, "Two mango juices, please."
"Alright, mister." The waiter nodded.
Eden heard that and immediately voiced up, "Mr. Alwynn, you can just order one glass of mango juice.
I'm allergic to mango."
All of a sudden, Victor looked at her meaningfully and then said, "Then change it to two pineapple juices."
Eden smiled apologetically again and said, "Mr.
Alwynn, I am allergic to pineapple, too. You can just order your own drink if you want to."
Victor was very excited. What a coincidence!
Eden Clement was also allergic to pineapple and mango.
Eden's delicate skin will be flushed with rashes after she ate pineapple.
Mango would trigger a worse allergic reaction.
Victor took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He said calmly to the waiter, "Then I would like to order a glass of strawberry juice and a glass of orange juice."
Eden did not refuse him this time.
Victor glanced at her and then lowered his head to eat his porridge. Strawberry was Eden's favorite fruit.
Eden Clement would always eat a lot of strawberries in one go.
She liked the sweet and sour taste of strawberry very much.
Oftentimes, Eden Clement would sneak through the fence between their houses and eat strawberries with him on the lawn outside of his family mansion.
Both of them ate in silence. Victor was at a loss of words from his excitement.
Eden had nothing to say to Victor. It was her rest day, so she did not want to talk about work. Hence, she really had nothing to say to him.
"Victor!" A sweet voice rang out. Victor slightly frowned at the sound.
Eden glanced at Haven, who was standing not far away from them. There was a lady dressed in a light blue luxurious outfit standing next to Haven. The lady was Aisling Clement. She looked wealthy, luxurious, and elegant.
The two of them stared directly at Victor and Eden.
Victor did not say anything and nodded to Aisling.
It seemed that Aisling did not intend to leave just yet. With a smile on her face, she elegantly walked before them and looked down at Eden, who hung her head.
Haven walked over with a gloomy expression. A hint of anger flashed past her eyes when she saw Eden.
Eden had only worked in the company for three days, but Victor was already deeply attracted to her.
Aisling's eyes had a hint of disdain when she looked at Eden and said bluntly, "Victor, did you skip the dinner discussing your marriage between you and Haven because of this young woman here?"
Eden suddenly became the culprit of Victor's action.
Eden lowered her head. It seemed that it was not her fault that Victor did not attend that dinner. She just happened to join the headquarters that day.
Victor glanced coldly at Haven. Haven instantly became panicked when she saw Victor's cold eyes.
After staring at Haven for a full second, Victor turned his eyes to Aisling and said indifferently, "Mrs. Clement, Director Bleu and I ran into each other during our morning walk and decided to have breakfast together. As for me, I wouldn't change my mind for anyone. Please don't put the blame on innocent people, Mrs. Clement."
"As for Haven, if she really wants to marry into the Alwynn family, wouldn't Vincent be a suitable candidate too?"
Victor sounded indifferent, as if he was talking about other people's affairs instead of his.
