Chapter 51

"You're right," Eden said lazily as she put away her mobile.Ewan was overjoyed. "You're okay with it, then?"Eden stopped and looked at him. "I disagree."As they spoke, they reached the school entrance.Eden originally wanted to get a cab, but Alain had offered to pick her up.However, there was traffic on the road, so he asked her to wait for a few minutes.Eden was still buzzing in her ears. "Please, don't. Can you think about it… Eden, behind you."Eden turned around, and about thirty men in black started to surround her and Ewan.One of the men stepped forward and looked at Eden without any expression. "You're the one who broke Master Simon's leg?"Eden smiled coldly, her hands in her pockets, speaking back to them like she was a mafia boss herself. "Are we doing this solo or all at once?"Ewan had never seen so many enemies before, but he still gathered his courage and stood in front of Eden despite his fear. "You have to take me down first."Eden raised an eyebrow an

Alain took Eden's bag, held her hand, and asked softly, "You hungry?"He didn't mention anything about the fight."A little," Eden said lazily, as if the fight hadn't happened at all."Let's go get a bite."Eden nodded, saying nothing, and followed Alain into his car.Ewan, trailing behind them, still hadn't recovered his composure.Once they were all in the car, Horace wanted to ask Eden many questions but wasn't sure if he should. He'd had enough of being looked at like a fool by Eden. Another question, and he feared he'd forever be known as the fool to her.The drive was silent, with no one saying a word.Alain didn't ask Eden about the recent events either.After they'd been driving for a while, Eden suddenly looked up and asked Alain seriously, "Do you know anyone who has untreatable diseases or is on their deathbed?"Alain raised an eyebrow. "Yes."Horace, curious, asked, "Why are you asking?"Eden leaned against the car window and said sluggishly, "I need money.""M

Chapter 53

Alain wasn't short on cash. If Eden needed money, he could give it to her. However, he noticed that she was quite prideful. She would never take anything from anyone for free. If he were to really give her the whole 700 billion, she wouldn't take it either. Introducing her to new business opportunities was much better.Eden's eyes lit up with interest as she stood up straight. "That works."The fire in her eyes didn't escape Alain's gaze as he said with a smile, "The other one is from Rielton. He probably can't afford to pay you so much, but I'll try to get him to pay you 50 billion."After a moment of pause, Alain continued, "He has been paralyzed for about ten years, so get ready for that."When Eden heard that there was work, she instantly popped back to life. She massaged her chin and gave it some thought. "If I can fully heal him, can I ask for extra?"Alain raised an eyebrow. "He'll pay extra with me around."He realized he had underestimated Eden when he saw her being so c

Eden picked up the call outside."What is it?"Her tone was still icy."I've done everything as ordered," a stern voice came from the other side.Eden's hand was in her pocket as she looked down at the floor. "Alright. Do what you have to.""When will you be coming? There are a lot of things that await your decision."Eden frowned slightly. "If I need to do everything myself, what's the point of having you around?"The person stayed silent for a while and then said, "I've overstepped my boundary.""I'll look for you once I'm done on my end."Eden could see the streets outside from the window by the stairs. The sky was slowly darkening, and the lights from the lampposts were shining in from the window. The light on her face made her look even more cold-hearted.Eden hung up, her eyes frosting over. She needed to find out more about Jerred's heart quickly.Horace had drunk about ten bottles of beer, and he was starting to get a little drunk.Eden also had no appetite to eat m

Chapter 55

When Jerred passed away, Eden hadn't moved to Estburg.Not to mention, Eden had grown up in her grandmother's home and had never interacted with anyone else from the Hunt family. How did she know Jerred?Eden's face twisted with anger as her fingers tightened around Alain's collar. The crimson light in her eyes revealed her murderous intent. "You caused the accident and took his heart… You think you can hide the truth with a fake donation agreement?"She sneered, lusting for blood. "I'll rip your heart out so that you can die along with him!"Eden raised her other hand, but Alain, sensing something was wrong, instantly moved away. Needles buried themselves in the wall behind him.She abandoned launching more needles and started to fight Alain hand-to-hand.She fought with complete disregard for her own safety.Alain initially tried to evade her attacks, but when he realized he could no longer dodge, he quickly went on the offensive and overpowered Eden after a few exchanges. He

Eden looked away and asked in a dry voice, "Why isn't the recipient's name written here?"Alain snuffed out his cigarette. "He didn't donate his heart, it's still in him. For certain reasons, I had to tell everyone else that he died because he donated his heart."Eden stood there wearing all black, her lonesomeness apparent as the light shone on her.At that moment, Alain could feel sorrow in his heart.Eden frowned for a long time before raising her head and looking at him like a savage beast. "I'll verify this, you know? If you’ve lied to me, I'll make sure that you die with him."Alain pursed his lips. "So, the only reason you saved me is because you think Jerred's heart is inside me?"He didn't understand why Eden was willing to save him but refused to treat him completely. Everything made sense now.She did it for Jerred.It seemed like Eden and Jerred had a deep connection.Interesting.The two of them had supposedly never met, but Eden was willing to make so much effor

Chapter 57

The accident that Jerred was in wasn't an accident at all. An enemy had crashed his car into Jerred's during a mission.The reason Alain decided to marry someone from the Hunt family was because he wanted to protect it for Jerred after Jerred's passing.Eden wasn't someone who couldn't tell right from wrong. Since it was clear that Alain had nothing to do with this, she didn't need to hold his life in her hands.He had been taking great care of her during this time, after all."Are you leaving?" Alain's hand froze; it was apparent he was upset.Eden gave him a glance and said, "Yeah."Alain paused for a moment before asking, "You're my fiancée. Where are you going?""What does that have to do with me?" Eden smiled indifferently. "The one you're engaged to is someone from the Hunt family, not the Griffith family.""Really, now?" Alain bent over and whispered in her ear with a smile. "But the woman I want to marry is Eden Griffith."When his warm breath touched her, a slight blu

Chapter 58

Estburg Central Hospital.Cielo Navarro had just returned home from a business trip when he received news of his son's broken leg. Without even resting, he rushed to Estburg.When he reached the ward, his wife Imelda Lopez ran to him, crying in his arms. "Cielo, you have to speak up for our son's sake. His leg is broken, and he can't walk anymore."Imelda cried so hard that her makeup started to smudge from her tears."Dad, you have to settle the score for me," Simon called out urgently from the hospital bed."What happened?" Cielo's expression was dark.He knew the kind of person his son was.If Simon didn't cross the line, no one would have broken his leg."It's our school's new transfer student. She broke my leg on her first day. Dad, she was intentionally coming for me," Simon said. He knew Cielo's character. If he told his father what he did at school, he might lose his other leg as well."She said she wanted to kill me. You have to save me, or she'll really kill me."Af

"You…" Cielo clutched his chest in anger. "This is all your fault."Taking a deep breath, he glared at Simon. "You will go and apologize to Eden right now."They had no choice but to try and appease her anger."Why?" Imelda immediately protested. "There's no reason for our son, the victim, to apologize to her. Who does she think she is? She is just some girl from the countryside. How can she be more important than our son? I won't allow this!""Some girl from the countryside?" Cielo snorted coldly. "That 'girl from the countryside' can make the Navarro family disappear from Rielton in a single night.""What?" Both Imelda and Simon looked at him in disbelief.While Simon was naive in many ways, he could sense the gravity of the situation. "Dad, who exactly is Eden Griffith?"Cielo looked at him sternly. "Someone our family should never have crossed."-Riverside Senior High School.Eden arrived late for Miriam's class, which had already been in session for ten minutes."I'm h

Chapter 60

Eden took a step back, narrowing her eyes. Leaning against the wall, she addressed Cielo in an indifferent tone, "Your son wanted to kill my whole family."She said it calmly, but Cielo was instantly dismayed.Without hesitation, he stood up and slapped Simon's face, then kicked Simon's leg. "You bastard! How could you joke about that? Murder? Do you think your life is worth that much?"He didn't hold back. With one of Simon's legs already broken and unable to stand properly, Cielo's kick sent him crashing to the floor."Beg for her forgiveness, now," Cielo growled, his voice almost a roar.Though outwardly calm, Cielo was inwardly tense. Simon's audacity in threatening Eden's family unnerved him deeply.Simon, in immense pain, began to crawl toward Eden, begging for forgiveness. "I'm so sorry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have bullied others or acted so arrogantly. It's all my fault. Please forgive me…"Simon's loud pleas echoed through the corridor, drawing the attention of near
