Gluey Love Between Us

He walked into Lucian's office, took a glass of water with a paper cup and gulped it down.

Lucian stopped working and looked at him in confusion, "It's lunchtime. What are you doing here?"

Dean looked at him in shock, "Mr. Ronen, have you ever attended a meeting alone?"

Lucian looked at him and didn't speak.

All of a sudden, Dean told him what had happened just now.

After hearing that, Lucian was stunned. Victor was actually so crazy.

"Does Eden come to work today?" Lucian asked and looked at Dean with sympathy. It was quite hard for him to work for Victor who doted on his wife to the extreme.

He wanted to ask Eden about something. These days, his daughter slept late at night, and she couldn't sleep well.

"No, Mr. Alwynn said that she was too tired to get up. He even ordered a meal from River City Restaurant."

Lucian's eyes flashed when he heard that. Victor did not know how to restrain himself at all.

They must have a torrid night because he bought Eden underwear yesterday.

But he was despised by Amelia.

"Come on. Let's go for a meal. I have wasted seventeen minutes listening to you." Lucian packed up the things on the desk.

Last night, he coaxed his daughter until the small hours, and he had to take a nap after having lunch.

"Oh, Mr. Ronen, shall we eat in the canteen?" Dean asked. He and Thalia were going to eat in the canteen.

Lucian looked at him and smiled, "Even if we'll eat outside, you can afford to pay for it."

The expression on Dean's face was somewhat unnatural, and he didn't speak.

Lucian slowed down and looked at him with a faint smile, "Don't tell me that she holds the purse strings."

Dean kept nodding.

"My guess is right." Lucian was amused. Dean was henpecked as well.

"Isn't it just? I've bought three apartments in the past few years, and the fourth one may be used as the new marital home. I've kept the money for buying and decorating the new house, and the rest of the money has been saved as the education fund. She said that we should save some money for our children."

He agreed with Thalia. Nobody wanted his child to be inferior.

Lucian was surprised. Dean had been working very well in the past few years, and he actually bought four houses. He was more awesome than them.

"Dean, you're really something!" Lucian looked at him admiringly.

Dean smiled. He had no choice but to work so hard, didn't he?

In fact, he was very grateful to Victor because he gave him this job. He was very satisfied with his life.

"Mr. Ronen, it's not easy to get married. But the three apartments are all small. I've rented them."

"Ha-ha..." Lucian seemed to have thought of something, "I remember that your dream is the same as Irene's. You both want to buy houses and rent them." "Yeah, owning more houses makes me feel at ease."

He invested together with Victor and got a lot in return. In order to give his wife and children a comfortable life, he had been working very hard. "Those who are well-planned are living a good life." Lucian patted him on the shoulder.

Dean nodded. This was indeed the case.

Eden woke up and felt very hungry.

Picking up the phone, she saw the message sent by Victor.

"Honey, are you awake? Lunch will be delivered soon. Go downstairs and open the door."

Eden looked around helplessly. Looking at the messy room, she could imagine how passionate they were last night.

After washing up, she went to the first floor. The bodyguard happened to send her the meal.

Eden ate while looking at her phone.

In the group chat.

Abigail said, "Girls, I'm so happy! I received eight bras last night."

Eden was taken aback. She received eight sets of underwear as well. Amelia said, "Me too."

Eden was stunned and replied, "Me, too. Victor gave them to me."

Amelia typed, "It's normal to receive such a gift from our husbands. I'm so glad."

Candace asked, "Why didn't I receive such a gift?"

Amelia: replied to her, "Ask your husband."

Eden suddenly thought of something.

"Why did we all receive eight sets of underwear?"

Abigail said, "Did they buy the underwear together?"

Amelia said, "I think so!"

Eden replied, "It must be!"

Candace typed, "I didn't receive such a gift. Woo-woo..."

Abigail said, "Candace, let Adonis buy it for you."

Candace replied, "I'm too embarrassed to mention that. If they went to the mall together, why didn't Adonis buy it for me? Humph, I won't talk to him after he comes back." Abigail, Eden and Amelia were speechless.

Abigail said, "Candace, maybe they didn't ask Adonis to go with them."

Candace typed, "The four of them are best friends. Why didn't they call Adonis?"

Abigail didn't what to say. It became more and more awkward.

She immediately sent a message to Anson.

"Did you guys buy the underwear together yesterday?"

"Dear, how do you know that?"

Abigail was shocked.

"Why didn't Candace receive such a gift?"

Seeing this, Anson had a nasty feeling in heart.

"Because Adonis didn't go with us."

Anson muttered to himself, "Adonis, I'm sorry."

Abigail replied to him, "Go tell Adonis about it. Ask him to buy underwear for Candace. Otherwise, she won't talk to him."

Anson was dumbfounded. Women's hearts were so unpredictable, and it was hard to please them.

He said, "I'll call him right now."

However, before Adonis could call Adonis, Adonis had sent him a message.

"Candace said something about underwear. She is angry now. What's going on?"

Anson didn't expect him to know about it so quickly.

Then he told Adonis what had happened yesterday.

Adonis said, "You guys are fake friends! How could you not tell me about it? You really let me down!"

Anson was speechless.

"You had something to do yesterday, didn't you? You can buy it for her today."

"That won't be the same! Candace will feel that I'm inferior to you."

"That's your own business."

"You frenemies!"

"What's the point of talking about this now? In the face of benefits, friendship is worthless. Alright, good luck to you. I'm going to a meeting."

Anson touched his forehead helplessly.

Adonis really couldn't blame him. After all, he mentioned him yesterday.

In the group chat.

Adonis said, "You frenemies!"

However, Victor and Lucian knew what was going on and ignored him.

After eating lunch, Eden planned to go out for a walk. She drove alone to the mall near Windsor Villa. She wanted to buy some baskets and fruit plates, and she had to add something in her studio.

She arrived at a crossroad and parked the car. Passengers were using a zebra crossing, so she waited for the green lights and looked down at her phone. Candace was very unhappy. She wanted to receive a gift from Adonis as well.

Eden said something to comfort her. The lights had turned green, so she wanted to start the car. All of a sudden, she saw a lot of people gathering around the sidewalk. It seemed that something had happened.
