Chapter 495
Hearing this, Anson instantly felt depressed.
He looked at Lucian, his face full of sorrow, and said, “Lucian, I just forgot about this matter. Why
did you remind me?”
Lucian turned around and left, not saying a word.
All of a sudden, Anson’s expression turned grim. He had to talk to Chloe’s agent.
He let out a heavy sigh.
Eden smiled and said, “Mr. Skye, you can do it!”
Anson could only look at her and smile.
Some things couldn’t be done even though he had tried his best.
“I will do what I am capable of.” Anson’s voice was weak, showing how unwilling he was.
Eden and Amelia smiled and followed him.
As soon as they arrived at the secretary office, they met a woman in a black tight skirt. She looked
pretty with a perfect figure. Under the tight skirt, her long and slender legs were fully displayed. Her
every twinkle and smile were extremely attractive, and she had a gorgeous temperament like a
queen.
“Good morning, Mr. Skye.” The woman looked at Anson with a charming smile.
“Good morning, Nicole,” Anson said with a simper. From his expression, one could tell that he was
being perfunctory.
“Why are you here?” Anson asked.
As for Lucian, he was so engrossed in his work that he did not even raise his head.
Eden looked at the person in front of her and found her quite familiar.
Amelia whispered in Eden’s ear, “She is
Nicole Zellweger, our former brand ambassador.”
“Oh!” Eden nodded slightly. No wonder she felt her familiar.
Eden said to Amelia, “Let’s go.”
“Okay!” Amelia nodded.
The two of them walked past Nicole.
Nicole looked askance at Eden. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and jealousy flashed through them.
When she saw Eden walking past her, she quickly stuck out her leg, intending to trip Eden.
“Ah…” Eden fell forward.
“Director Bleu!” Amelia quickly threw away the documents in her hand and rushed to hold Eden.
Anson looked at Nicole. This woman was really malicious.
Last year, Marianne had chosen Nicole, and he had negotiated with her. At first, she had been
putting on airs, but after he had tried his best to explain their design concepts, she had finally
agreed to sign the contract.
But the contract had expired now. What was she doing here today?
When Eden fell, Lucian stood up, looking at Nicole coldly.
“Director Bleu, are you OK?” Amelia helped Eden stand up.
Eden’s forehead was covered in sweat. Nicole had kicked on the very foot that had been injured a
few days ago.
What the hell? Why did her foot always get hurt?
“I’m fine!” Eden glanced at her foot. She had just stumbled a few steps, and it hurt now.
Nicole leaned slightly to one side, showing off her good figure. She looked down at Eden’s face
from above with disdain. When she saw her forehead was filled with sweat, a trace of satisfaction
flashed through her eyes.
Upon closer inspection, Nicole found Eden was indeed beautiful. She was precisely the woman who
had an affair with Victor.
Recently, she had been out of town for a movie. As soon as she had come back, she saw Victor’s
affair with Eden spreading like wildfire.
Who was Victor? He was the very man Nicole wanted to marry. Last autumn, as the brand
ambassador of the Alwynn Group, she had met Victor for the first time, and she had been
fascinated by the mature and reserved man.
Since the first time she had seen Victor, she had known that this man was different from the other
sons of the rich families. He was calm, reserved, and talented.
With a good figure, a good look, and good family background, she thought she deserved a young
elite like Victor.
Nicole smiled apologetically, “Miss, I’m sorry. I just wanted to walk, and I didn’t expect to bump into
you.”
She apologized gracefully. As an experienced actress, she was sophisticated and had already
practiced the skill of keeping calm. No matter where she was, she would be clever in dealing with
people.
Eden looked at her with cold eyes. She hadn’t expected her to apologize.
Now even if she knew that Nicole had done it on purpose, she could not find fault with her.
Otherwise, it would make her seem like a mean person.
Eden did not say anything. With the help of Amelia, she slowly stood up.
Anson glared at Nicole. He walked over to Eden and said, “Director Bleu, I think you should go to
the hospital.”
“Anson, you don’t have to be so exaggerated, do you? It was just a stumble. Even her skin is not
broken, let alone the bones. Hospital? Don’t make a fuss!” Nicole’s tone was cold and sarcastic.
“Shut up!” Anson looked at her and shouted coldly.
This woman had done it on purpose. He had seen it clearly.
“Anson…”
“Nicole, you did it on purpose.” Anson glared at her angrily. His elegant and romantic temperament
was instantly replaced by a cold vibe.
“Anson, I, I didn’t mean to trip her. I don’t have any grudges against her. Why did I purposely try to
make things hard for her?” Nicole said with a look of grievance. She had never expected Anson tonoveldrama
accuse her openly.
Anson gave a snort and did not say anything.
Eden also looked at Anson in surprise. He had actually spoken to Nicole in such a straightforward
manner. But it might not be a bad thing. After all, this woman did have done it on purpose.
At this moment, Lucian called Victor.
Victor was burying himself in work when he heard the phone ring.
A wave of nameless anger rose from his heart, and he picked the phone up.
A faint voice came from Lucian, “Come out.”
Victor frowned and said, “Tell me what’s on your mind. I’m busy.” His tone was full of impatience.
Lucian said unhurriedly, “Eden stumbled.”
Victor hung up the phone, frowned, gritted his teeth, got up quickly, and ran toward the door.
“Lucian, screw you.” Victor hated Lucian’s way of speaking.
But his way of speaking was the same as Lucian’s as if they were twins.
The materials on the desk had been pushed to the ground because of his drastic movement, but he
didn’t notice.
He quickly opened the door. What caught his eye was the little face of Eden, which was covered in
sweat.
Amelia was squatting aside, picking up the documents.
Victor’s face distorted with anger. Eden’s foot had healed only a little over the past two days. She
had even been very careful when she went downstairs.
He looked straight at Eden’s pale face and strode towards her, his face filled with pity. “Eden, was
your foot injured again?”
“No, I’m fine!” Eden shook her head slightly. Nothing serious, it just hurt.
As soon as Nicole saw Victor, her expression became very gentle, and her enchanting face was
beautiful.
“Victor, I’m back,” she said in a delicate voice and looked at Victor with soft eyes.
Hearing this voice, Victor got goosebumps all over his body.
He looked at Nicole with his eyes as deep as a cold pond and asked indifferently, “Who are you?”
