After Eden got back up, she then took out the phone that she had switched off for a few days from her bag. Then, she switched it back on.The moment she switched it on, a call immediately came in.“You finally picked up! The Agency’s in so much trouble!” The person on the other side said excitedly.If Alain was right next to them, he would definitely figure out who was calling her. It was the person in charge of the Agency, Liam Robertson.Eden moved the phone away from her ear and frowned, saying, “Give me the information of the person who wanted to buy information on Nosoi for one billion.”Liam was stunned. He thought that K was going to get angry, but he didn’t expect her to be so calm.He stayed quiet for a moment before saying, “You’ll take the job?”Eden pulled a chair and sat down, putting her hand under her chin.She had wanted to rest for a year so she could focus on investigating Jerred’s case.She frowned and said, “I’ll take it.”After pausing for a moment, she t
After Sulien said that, Alain, Horace, and Caelus all became quiet.True. It was extremely weird for a nineteen-year-old to have medical skills of this level. Not to mention that Eden knew a skill that was supposedly unique to Nosoi. The only explanation that fit was that she was Nosoi’s student.After some time, Horace asked, “If that’s the case, have you somehow crossed Nosoi? So the reason that the Agency didn’t take the job isn’t because of K, but it’s because of Nosoi?”Alain lifted his gaze and looked at Horace, as if he was thinking about something.Suddenly, an alarm started blaring.Caelus immediately stood up and sprinted upstairs after glancing at Alain.Very quickly, he came back down with a laptop in his hand.He opened it in front of Alain and checked it before raising his head with a serious expression on his face. “Boss, someone hacked your computer.”Alain sat up, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. “Who?”Caelus shook his head. “The hacker erased his trace
Didn’t they say that Alain was ill and disfigured?But there was no disfigurement!He was so handsome!Jasmine felt as if she was about to black out.What had she done?She had basically handed a man who looked like a living god to Eden!“What is it, Ms. Jasmine?” Alain glanced at Jasmine before looking away. He didn’t even want to waste a second with her.There was no change in his expression at all.Jasmine suddenly remembered why she was there and quickly said, “My mom’s worried that Eden can’t get used to the life here since she’s just moved here, so I’m here to help her unpack.”She quietly peeked at Alain’s face as her heart raced.He was so handsome!That was how her future partner should look like.Alain nodded and didn’t spare her another glance. He continued eating with the fork in his hand.He also picked up another piece of meat for Eden and put it on her plate.She was quite skinny, so she should eat more meat for nutrition.Looking at how gentle Alain was,
Eden’s phone started ringing. It was a short text. She picked it up and looked at it. While she was responding to it, she answered Alain’s question, “Monday.”“Riverside Senior High isn’t as simple as it seems. Be careful.” Alain knew that she was quite prideful and was interested to know how she would do at Riverside Senior High.He probably had to find someone to protect her in secret.“Yeah,” Eden chugged the beer bottle in her hand in one gulp as she sat on the chair.When Jasmine came down, she then saw how strangely harmonious things were between Alain and Eden. The resentment inside of her was getting stronger and stronger.Didn’t they say Alain was brutal and violent?Why was he treating Eden so well?She hesitated a little before hiding the coldness in her eyes and walked over to Alain and said, “Master Alain, since my sister doesn't know anyone here, can I stay with her here for a while? I’ll move back once she gets used to life here.”The reason Jasmine was here toda
The next morning, the screeching doorbell woke Eden up.She kicked her blanket away in displeasure, her expression of someone not to be trifled with. She was extremely irritated, to the point of wanting to punch someone.When Eden got downstairs, Alain was already up.When Eden saw who it was, she was stunned.It was a woman!And she was beautiful!She was very well-presented with a perfect figure and full of grace.The woman instantly saw Eden, who was standing behind Alain. She quickly stepped into the house and held Eden’s hand, her beautiful face revealing a brilliant smile. “My, my, you must be that daughter-in-law of mine? You’re even prettier in person. This is great!”“Hello,” After being stunned for a moment, Eden greeted her politely and stopped being so thuggish.The woman in front of her was Alain’s mother, Sinead Ward. When Eden was investigating Alain, she had seen Sinead’s picture before.“Hello to you too,” Sinead said, obviously very happy with Eden. She pu
Sinead lifted her gaze, looking at Jasmine somewhat confused. “You must be Jasmine.”When the Ward family decided to go ahead with the marriage with the Hunt family, Sinead had already studied the Hunt family.Of course, she had seen everyone’s photo as well. That was why she was able to make out Jasmine in one glance.“Yes, I am,” Jasmine smiled sweetly and meekly.“Why are you here?”Someone with the status of Sinead had already seen many kinds of people in her life. The moment Jasmine spoke, she could already tell that she didn’t come with pure intentions. She immediately frowned, and her expression darkened.Jasmine looked down, seemingly embarrassed. “My sister has just moved to Estburg. I’m just going to accompany her for a while. Once she’s used to life here, I’ll leave.”As Jasmine continued to keep up with the girl-next-door act, Sinead was getting annoyed with her instead.“That’s inappropriate, isn’t it?”Sinead said as she let go of Eden’s hand and sat with her bac
As soon as Eden said that, Alain nearly chortled.One could see he was enjoying it through his eyes.Sinead was stunned for a while too before regaining her composure, and she said with a smile. “That’s true... You may stay, then.”Jasmine glared at Eden, almost unable to stop herself from cursing her.Jasmine looked down, viciousness in her eyes. However, she was still smiling on the surface. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Ward. I’ll take good care of my sis and Master Alain as well.”Sinead decided to ignore her and only then did she remember Alain who was sitting by the side. She turned around and looked at him, and she instantly let out an astonished cry. “Alain... You... You’ve recovered?”Sinead wanted to mention the tumors, but seeing that Eden and Jasmine were still around, she used different words.Alain was speechless.He held his arm up and looked at the watch.It had been half an hour since Sinead walked through the door. Only now did she remember that she had a son?“Yeah,”
Eden had never been soft-hearted. No one who had humiliated her could still live.She only tolerated the Hunt family because they were Jerred’s family.That didn’t mean she would tolerate them forever. There was a limit to her tolerance.Her grandma was her bottom line. If anyone dared to touch her, she would make sure that the person would regret he was ever born!No matter who they were!Upstairs, Sinead forced Alain to take off his clothes and checked his body.When she saw that all of his tumors were gone, she was so shocked that she couldn’t say a word.“What... What happened?” Sinead looked at him with wide eyes and in astonishment. “Who cured you?”Alain slowly put his clothes back on and glanced at Sinead before saying, “Your future daughter-in-law.”“Eden?!” Sinead was surprised. “How’s that possible?”Eden was only nineteen-years-old, and she hadn’t even graduated high school! How could she have treated Alain’s sickness?Not to mention that Alain wasn’t actually si
