Moving On from a Cheater Chapter 107
Yvonne turned her head away from Iris. "Yeah, I don't feel like it."Ted quickly intervened, "It's okay, Iris. We'll cycle. Let's go. It's a long journey, so if we don't hurry, it'll already be midday when we arrive."Iris shrugged. "Alright."The sightseeing bike was a side-by-side tandem bicycle, so Ted was sitting very close to Iris. He could hear her breathing and catch a faint scent from her, causing his heart to race uncontrollably. At his age, feeling his heart flutter just from being near a woman seemed somewhat pathetic. He thought he should be more composed, not acting like a young man experiencing his first crush. Even he couldn't help looking down on himself.Yet, he couldn't control his feelings. Perhaps this was the charm of love—even the most powerful people could not control it. It could make a person behave unnaturally.Ted's emotions were probably amplified because his unrequited love had suddenly seen a ray of hope. The long-suppressed feelings surged forth li

Ted glared at Yvonne.Yvonne raised her chin, her expression challenging, as if to say, "What are you looking at? Serves you right for threatening me."Ted still needed Yvonne's help to get closer to Iris, so he did not dare to offend her. He conceded and said, "Yvonne's right."Yvonne finally smiled.Iris looked back and forth between Ted and Yvonne. "Is something going on?"It felt like there was a silent showdown between the two.Ted hurriedly denied it. "No, of course not! You know how Yvonne is."Indeed, Yvonne had a fiery personality.Iris smiled, letting the matter rest.Ted found some more topics to talk about. Although Iris didn't really connect with him, it was still a pleasant chat.Upon arriving at the hot spring area, a staff member greeted them and led them to the changing rooms. The provided attire was uniform but allowed for size selection.Ted entered the men's changing room, while Iris and Yvonne went to the women's. In order to preserve the hot spring's

Yvonne raised her eyebrows at the sight of Stanley. Her annoyance with Ted diminished—after all, there was now someone more annoying present.Iris leaned against the edge of the hot spring, her expression neutral, as if the escalating tension had nothing to do with her.Ted felt a twinge of guilt. Everything he said was true, but he was talking bad about Stanley behind his back, which was a shady thing to do. However, as a man, he couldn’t show any weakness in front of Iris or she would look down on him.Standing up, Ted stepped out of the hot spring as if nothing had happened and asked casually, "What are you doing here?"Stanley glared at Ted, his face twisted with fury and his chest heaving with emotion. "If I weren’t here, I wouldn't have heard your comments about me behind my back!"Ted, undeterred, shot back, "Did I lie? If I didn't, why are you so angry?"At a loss for a response, Stanley’s anger boiled over. He kicked Ted in the stomach, sending him crashing back into the

He spoke in anger without thinking.Yvonne seethed at his words. "Go to hell, you scumbag."Iris cast him a cold look before climbing out of the hot spring and walking away barefoot.Yvonne turned to Ted. "If you beat him up, I’ll help you pursue Iris!"Ted's morale instantly soared.Stanley was stunned, realizing he had crossed a line. Taking advantage of that, Ted punched him in the face.Stanley was not about to back down; he instantly retaliated. The two fought, and water splashed everywhere, as if there were two large fish thrashing in the pool.The commotion attracted the resort manager's attention, who rushed over to break up the scuffle. However, this fight was different from the last time the two men fought. Both men had bloodshot eyes, unwilling to yield. Ultimately, the manager had to call the police, and the cops came to arrest them.The fight was deemed a mutual combat. Both men were injured. The police contacted their families.Renee was the first to arrive. She

Iris pursed her lips. Her throat felt dry. She was with Stanley for seven years and spent four years in the Stein family. During that time, she had devoted herself to her role as a wife and a daughter-in-law. She took care of her husband and respected her elders, enduring the harsh treatment from Renee without complaint, all because Renee was Stanley's mother and she didn't want to put Stanley in a difficult position.But what had it all amounted to? More slander and humiliation. Even after she had divorced Stanley, Renee continued to regard her with contempt, looking down on her family and belittling her as a person.Iris fixed her gaze on Stanley, attempting to steady her hoarse voice. "You know, Stanley? The biggest mistake of my life, the biggest regret of my life, is marrying you."Droplets of water streamed down from Stanley's eyes, mingling with the water that dripped from his hair, making it difficult to tell if they were tears or just water.Renee perked up at her words.

Stanley did not feel like replying. His gaze remained locked on Iris.He had come to Seine Mountain because Professor Aston had informed him about an academic conference in the area. He had no desire to attend at first, but upon hearing that Yvonne would be here, he reconsidered. Knowing that Iris and Yvonne were close, he thought maybe Iris would be here too. This prompted him to make the trip.Upon arrival, he discovered that Ted was also here. The reason Stanley had made his way to the hot spring was because he knew Iris and Ted were both there. He did not expect to overhear Ted bad-mouth him as soon as he arrived."Stanley, Fiora told me that you’ve been drinking a lot lately, and you often drink until you pass out. That's not good for your health. Also, I've checked with the fortune teller; January 20th is a good day for engagement, so I'm thinking of holding your engagement ceremony with Fiora on that day. What do you think?""Can you stop speaking for a second?" Stanley snap

Stanley stood watching the departing car in a daze, his mind swirling with Renee's words. Yes, he agreed to the divorce; he had signed the papers willingly. So why would he regret it now? Why did life seem bland and tasteless without Iris? It was as if he missed a familiar meal that he had gotten tired of because he could no longer have it. He had grown tired of the boring, monotonous married life, so why would he want it back now that he had become free? Why had the home that was once relaxing and comforting transformed into a place he now dreaded returning to?Just then, a police car pulled up nearby, and an officer escorted a thief out. "You little thief, I can't believe I caught you stealing again only a few days after you're released. Are you treating the jail as your second home?"Stanley turned to watch.Were habits really that hard to change? Did all his unhappiness stem from his habit of living with Iris? He had grown accustomed to going home and seeing her there. He

Ted, however, was someone she knew very well. While he might not be particularly outstanding, he had a solid character. He had silently admired Iris for eight years, but while she was married to Stanley, he never made a move on her, always behaving appropriately. Now that he's pursuing her, he's doing so openly.In the last seven years, it must have killed him to see the love of his life with another man.There's a saying that if you really have to marry, you should marry someone who loves you. Yvonne thought Ted was a decent choice.Iris gently pulled her hand away. "I want to focus on my career."Ted had mentally prepared himself for this, knowing there was a 99% chance of rejection. Yet, hearing her soft refusal still left him feeling disappointed. He wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, his expectations replaced by sadness.He hung his head as Iris picked up the medical kit and left the room.Yvonne approached and patted Ted on the shoulder. "Iris has just divorced; she needs

"Okay. Good night, Mr. Just," Iris said."See you tomorrow," he said."See you tomorrow."…Iris was jolted awake the next morning by her phone ringing. Groggy, she reached for it. "Hello...""My husband changed his mind. He refuses to settle or drop the case now."The client's voice sounded anxious.Iris was instantly wide awake.Why would he change his mind overnight? She was going to handle all the procedures today to avoid further complications too."What happened?" Iris sat up, rubbing her eyes. "Take your time and explain in detail.""I don't know either. He just messaged me saying he regrets signing the settlement agreement and he won't drop the case. But he already signed the agreement. He can't change his mind anymore, right?" The client still held a glimmer of hope.Iris replied, "He can still change his mind."Under normal circumstances, changing one's mind after signing would be difficult. However, since she had half-tricked him into signing the agreement, if

Iris nodded helplessly. "You shouldn't have answered the phone." She felt a headache coming.She wasn't blaming Jason; it's just impossible to explain to her mother now.Since Jason answered her phone this late at night, her mother naturally assumed that Jason had been with her all evening.That was indeed the case today, but it wasn't in the way her parents thought."I can go meet your parents with you," Jason offered.Iris was surprised. Huh?Does he even know what he's saying?"Do you know who my mom thinks you are?" she asked.How could he suggest that without knowing anything?"She thinks I'm your boyfriend, right?" Jason smirked mischievously. "If you don't take me to see them, they'll definitely ask you even more questions. Wouldn't that be troublesome for you?""Besides," he added, "We worked so well together earlier. We're very in sync, right?"Iris was speechless."Actually, all I have to do is explain to them...""What if they set you up on a blind date?" Jaso

After hanging up, as Jason was about to leave the car, he heard a phone ringing. He traced the sound to Iris' phone lying on the passenger seat. She had left her phone in his car.Picking it up, he noticed "Mother" displayed on the screen and smiled, recalling the enthusiastic woman he had met the other day. It seemed he had a reason to look for Iris now.He exited the car and took the elevator to the ground floor, then headed to the building across the street.While waiting for the elevator in Iris' building, Iris' phone rang again. Jason wondered if he should answer. Iris' mother was calling repeatedly in the middle of the night, so there might be an emergency. After some hesitation, he decided to answer.Before he could speak, Cassie's voice came through the line. "Iris, happy birthday! Your dad and I are so busy today that I only have time to call you now. When are you free to visit us for dinner? Call me before you come; we'll skip work that day and stay home to spend the

Stanley was furious. He felt as if all the blood in his body was flowing to his head. If he had held onto any hope before, it was gone now. He realized that Iris was genuinely leaving him and had no intention of returning to his side.No!He could not accept that!Inside the car, Iris fastened her seatbelt, unfazed by Stanley's roar. Jason glanced at her, noticing her calm demeanor, and a slight smile tugged at the corners of his lips.He started the engine, and the car roared to life. He turned the steering wheel and pressed the gas pedal, and they drove away .Once they had left Riverside Pier, Iris said, "Thank you for acting with me."Jason's grip on the steering wheel tightened. "Don't you think we have great chemistry?"Iris considered this for a moment. "Indeed. I always thought you were a very serious person. I didn't expect you to...""To what?" he asked, glancing at her.Iris brushed her hair. "Just now, when you called me 'babe', I got goosebumps. I can't believ

"I'll take you home," Jason offered.Iris nodded. Stanley couldn't stand it any more. Disregarding how bad it made him look, he rushed forward and grabbed Iris' wrist. "Iris..."Iris turned around, her expression cold. "Can I help you, Mr. Stein?"Her tone was icy, causing a pang in Stanley's chest. "H-happy birthday." His voice was hoarse. "Iris, I made a mistake. Let's get back together..."Jason instinctively tightened his grip on Iris' shoulder.Iris sneered, tilting her head with eyes full of coldness. "Since you wished me a happy birthday, let me make a wish: I hope you never appear before me again. I hope my wish will come true.""Iris," Stanley's voice cracked with emotion.Iris raised her eyebrows and said fiercely, "Let go of my hand!"Instead of releasing her, Stanley tightened his grip, the veins in his hand bulging.That hurt Iris' arm."Mr. Stein," Jason interjected, prying Stanley's hand away. "Stop bothering her. This is unbecoming of you.""She's my wife

On the shore, Yvonne urged Iris to leave.The other yacht was drawing closer to the dock, and if Iris lingered any longer, she would inevitably run into Stanley. It had truly been an unlucky day for Yvonne. Nothing was going smoothly. First came Jason, an unexpected guest, and now came Stanley, a harbinger of bad luck."Iris, why is the day of your birth so unlucky?" Yvonne complained. Iris looked perplexed. Right then, the other yacht docked. Henry was the first to jump off. He hurried over to Yvonne. "Hey! You're here too? Why didn’t you call me to join you? We could have come together."Yvonne glanced at the three women who followed him down from the yacht. All of them were flaunting their legs, their skirts barely covering their bottoms, and their cleavages were on full display with their low necklines. Yvonne scoffed, "Come together? That would have ruined your fun.""C'mon, I'm not serious with them," Henry replied. He approached Yvonne and reached for her sleeve. "

Actually, it wasn't that the parents absolutely couldn't afford to raise her, it was more because they wanted a son, but with the family planning policy, they couldn't afford the payment to give birth to one more child, so they left the girl to be raised by the grandparents.The little girl passed away without ever having been registered in the household registration; she was considered undocumented. Getting her registered would require money the family simply didn't have. Or, perhaps, they felt that it wasn't necessary since she was just a girl.The girl's aunt – her uncle's wife, who also lived with the girl's grandparents – was unhappy because there was suddenly an extra mouth to feed. The aunt treated the girl very poorly. According to neighbors, the girl was often beaten and denied food. The grandparents didn't dare speak up, fearing they would upset their daughter-in-law.According to the villagers, the aunt had attacked the girl that day because the girl had stolen some bread

Jason remarked, "In this world, there is no such thing as absolute fairness."He thought Iris' view was still overly idealistic. There was a large gap between the things taught in law school and the cases that happened in the real world. Sometimes, bending the rules was necessary to achieve certain objectives, not just for the sake of making things fairer. The world has never been fair, no matter in which country.Iris fell silent. She knew that the world had never truly been fair. Many individuals were constrained by circumstances from the moment they were born. Some emerged from impoverished rural areas, needing relentless perseverance to change their fates, while others were born into wealth and luxury, their starting point already an unattainable goal for many. How could this not be seen as unfair? Fairness was absent from the moment of one's birth.Yet, wasn't her initial aspiration to study law rooted in the pursuit of fairness? If not, what was the point of law?"Mr. Just,

His now wide open collar revealed his sexy, slender neck. His Adam's apple moved as he spoke, his voice slightly hoarse, "Are you really okay?"Iris nodded, avoiding his gaze; she didn't dare meet his eyes directly. His gaze felt too affectionate. Earlier, he mentioned that she resembled the love of his life. Maybe he saw her as a substitute for his unrequited love?Yes, it must be so; otherwise, he wouldn't have looked at her with that kind of expression.Phew~She assured herself that Jason couldn't possibly have feelings for someone like her. It was fortunate she had realized this in time, avoiding any presumptuous thoughts. She felt relieved that she hadn't embarrassed herself in front of him."Um..." Just then, Denise approached, intending to inform them that Yvonne wanted to leave. Upon reaching the sun deck, she immediately spotted Jason hugging Iris.She realized she was intruding.Quietly, she turned to leave.However, Iris had seen her. "Denise," Iris called out
