Gluey Love Between Us

Chapter 25

Lucian opened the car door for Eden gentlemanly.

Eden got into the car after she thanked Lucian.

Lucian turned on the ignition and waited for Victor to get in the car.

Victor looked like he was furious. His voice was loud when he talked to the person on the other end of the line.

After a while, he ended the call angrily, yanked the door, and got into the car.

His handsome face revealed his slight uneasiness when he suddenly saw Eden. He was a little embarrassed when he shifted his gaze away and sat down beside Eden.

Lucian said nothing and started to drive.

Eden felt a little tense when Victor sat down beside her.

It was rumored that Mr. Alwynn disliked women very much.

There were even rumors claimed that Mr. Alwynn might have a different sexual orientation.

It was very likely that he liked men.

Eden often heard the branch office's employees

gossiping about Victor.

But the gossip was disproved today since Victor was willing to give her a ride. Victor was even willing to sit beside her.

Eden felt a little uneasy. She suddenly saw strawberry-flavored lollipops in the cupholder between the car seats.

She smiled and asked, "Mr. Alwynn, can I have a lollipop?"

Victor looked at her and picked up a lollipop for her. He unwrapped the lollipop wrapping before he handed it over to Eden.

His kind gesture made Eden smile. "Thank you, Mr. Alwynn! I always feel like strawberry-flavored lollipops taste like happiness because of their sweetness."

Victor was secretly shocked by her words.

The sweet voice of the young girl echoed in his ears.

"Victor, here, take this strawberry-flavored lollipop. You'll feel very happy after you eat it!"

He did not like to eat sweets. His mother had left him at the time.

He was so depressed that he did not have the motivation to do anything.

Eden always tried her best to make him happy.

He did not want to eat the lollipop, but she forcefully stuffed the lollipop into his mouth.

Victor sighed. His voice quivered when he asked, "Why do you think strawberry-flavored lollipops taste like happiness?"

He remembered that he had also asked Eden Clement the same question before.

Eden answered without hesitation, "Of course it's because of the sweetness!" Did she need a reason to like something?

She liked strawberry-flavored lollipops for no reason.

Eden sucked on the lollipop and twisted the lollipop stick between her fingers.

She looked gentle and her red lips were luscious.

The way she was sucking on the lollipop sparked a desire within Victor.

"Victor, you are so stupid. Of course, it's because of the sweetness!"

Their answers were so similar.

Victor stared at her with his deep-set eyes and clenched his fists together emotionally.

Lucian glanced at Victor through the rearview mirror. He noticed that Victor was having a hard time

containing his emotions.

The sun was shining on half of Victor’s handsome face. Victor appeared even lonelier. Lucian knew that Victor was very agitated at the moment.

Lucian was afraid that Victor, who was feeling very hopeful at the moment, would be greatly disappointed.

Did he really think that Eden Bleu was Eden Clement?

Eden Clement was already six years old when the incident happened. She was already at the age where she could retain her memories.

There was only one possibility left. She did not return for so many years because she was already dead.

All of them were aware of this truth, but they did not dare to burst Victor’s bubble. Eden was the only reason why Victor was alive. Victor worked so hard to earn money because he wanted to find Eden and his mother.

Eden could feel Victor’s intense gaze. She looked out the window uneasily.

Under the sunset, the rush hour traffic was extremely heavy.

She felt that she would feel more comfortable walking to the restaurant than sitting in a car with

Victor.
