Chapter 2063
Paulina's pupils quivered. She felt as if her heart had been hit by a blunt weapon.
Victor said, "Those who are used by you have ruined their own lives. Aren't you a devil?"
Paulina could not refute his words.
Yes, she had ruined her own life, as well as the lives of many people.
She couldn't be more vicious.
Paulina looked at her hands. Although she didn't kill anyone, she felt that her hands were stained with blood.
"Ha-ha..." She laughed in pain and looked at Victor with unfocused eyes.
"Victor, you are the devil. You are the biggest demon in my heart. I shouldn't have fallen in love with you back then. I lost myself and my original intention because I fell in love with you."
"I loved you humbly. No, I didn't love you, but your money. Therefore, I hate the fact that many things can be measured by money in this world. So you are the biggest devil in this matter." Tears streamed down Paulina's face. She was enlightened by Victor and Eden, and her heart was tortured by guilty and pain. This was how horrible Victor was.
If she had always been ignorant and proud, she could still live in this world with her last shred of self-esteem angrily.
However, after being enlightened by Victor, she would live in hell every day.
In just a few years, she had changed from a confident and beautiful girl to a woman who had fallen for money.
During this period of time, she had been lying to herself, telling herself that only money could satisfy her.
As a result, she missed the chance to take care of her parents when they were old.
She couldn't grow old with them. Those who had been used by her suffered the same. Their parents hoped that they could have successful careers, but they ruined themselves. "Woo..." Crying with regret, Paulina was taken away.
Eden watched her and Barrett get on the police car expressionlessly.
Three days later, Eden heard the news that Barrett killed Paulina. Paulina did a lot of things that made Barrett angry. She took away half of Barrett's property and ruined his youngest son. Moreover, Barrett found that she had really drugged him. Barrett's dignity did not allow him to be tricked by a woman like this. Before Paulina was sent to jail, Barrett killed her in person to vent his hatred.
On TV, she saw Paulina's dead body, and her aged parents were crying bitterly.
Devin had run to the airport, but he was caught as well.
Barrett's two other wives were about to be sent back to their homeland.
Victor didn't do anything to them. He didn't hurt anyone who was innocent.
Eden watched the news in a daze. Everything had been settled, but she was not as happy as she had imagined.
After watching the news, Eden wrapped herself with the coat, put on her furry slippers and went out.
They've become safe, so they moved back to Windsor Villa.
Zaiden and Jaida went to visit Grandma Clement early in the morning.
The lake had frozen. The snowy world was extremely beautiful.
Victor did not see Eden in the living room, so he knew that she had gone out. As soon as he went out, he saw her in the snow.
He smiled and looked at the annoying snow. It had almost melted a few days ago, but it snowed heavily again last night.
He walked over and hugged her from behind.
Eden smiled and looked into the distance, "Paulina is dead."
"I know." Victor's voice was very soft.
The cold wind was blowing, and he hugged her tightly.
"The real life is cruel. People are divided into various grades and ranks. Some people are born in noble families, while others are born in poor families. But everyone has the same purpose. We all struggle to survive and make money. In fact, we make money to live a better life, but some people are so greedy that they ruin their own lives because of money."
"Honey, money is just a number. My career is important, but I care about my family and you the most." Everyone had different opinions, so their endings were not the same.
There was no free thing in this world. People might think that something was free, but that was because they didn't know that they would pay for it sooner or later.
Eden turned around and looked at him, "Victor, thank you!"
Eden suddenly felt very grateful.
Victor looked at her with a smile and rubbed her red face gently, "Thank me for what?"
Eden looked up at him tenderly, "For everything you gave me and your companion."
She threw herself into his arms and closed her eyes happily.
Victor lowered his head and looked at her hair. He smiled softly, and his eyes were full of tenderness and deep affection. He looked at her seriously and said, "Eden, before I found you, my life had been bitter. The fact that you'll stay with me for the rest of my life makes me so delighted!"
Ten days later, Zaiden chose a lucky day and let Eden be the president of Symantec Group in front of many reporters. From then on, he would no longer be in charge of the company, and he had a relaxed smile. Seeing him like this, Eden was very helpless.
Her hard days seemed to have just begun.
This news shocked the whole real estate market in River City.
Eden didn't want to let him down, so she took over the company resolutely.
There was a celebration party in the evening, and Eden held it in River City Restaurant.
All her relatives and friends came to congratulate her. Eden had become a new star in the real estate market. A lot of businessmen came to the party.
Victor and Eden greeted them one by one, but they did not see Zaiden and Jaida.
"Eden, what's wrong?" Victor stared at her. She was very eye-catching that night.
Eden looked around, "Do you see dad and mom?"
Victor shook his head slightly.
Just as Eden was about to call Zaiden, Zaiden called her.
Eden smiled and said, "Dad, where are you and mom? Victor and I want to have dinner with you."
Zaiden laughed, "Eden, your mother and I are at the airport. Thank you for managing the company for me in the future. Your mother and I will go skating first, and then we will go to M Country in a week. Someone is taking care of Gia and Ricky. You don't have to worry."
"We're about to board the plane. Have a good time. When we arrive, I will call you." Zaiden hung up the phone after saying that. It seemed that he was afraid that Eden would persuade him to go back. Eden was speechless as she looked at the phone.
"Victor, dad and mom are at the airport. Dad is really in a hurry to leave, isn't he?" Eden felt that she had been tricked.
"Ha-ha..." Victor looked at her and smiled, "You look as if you have been cheated. In fact, Dad has long wanted to hand over the company to you."
