However, she felt like she had already said everything that needed to be said. Yvonne was an adult with her own thoughts, and saying more wouldn't be helpful."Just make sure you think it through," Iris advised."Mmh," Yvonne offered a brief smile.Iris emerged from the bathroom with the water. She placed it on the table, wrung out a towel, and carefully helped Professor Sandler dry his hands and face, taking her time to ensure he would not feel uncomfortable.Yvonne joined in, assisting with the task. Once they finished, Iris went to pour the water away while Yvonne massaged her grandfather's shoulders.Professor Sandler cherished their presence, his heart feeling warm. "Having both of you by my side makes me very content.""I'll always be here for you, so you must take care of your body. You must live until you see your great-grandchildren," Yvonne said."Great-grandchildren? When? You're not even married yet," Professor Sandler asked, affectionately patting her hand. "Don't r

Iris took a deep breath and headed to the bathroom.After showering and drying her hair, she let her hair fall loose — something she rarely did. Though she typically avoided makeup, she decided to apply a light touch this time. Her wardrobe was filled with suits suitable for work, but none felt right for meeting someone she liked.Eventually, her hand landed on a dress in her closet, one that Yvonne had insisted she buy during their only shopping trip over the past year.She changed into the dress and stood in front of the mirror, feeling momentarily dazed. How long had it been since she dressed like this? She couldn't even recall.Tucking her hair behind her ears, she felt that this look was appropriate. She checked the time and realized it was time to leave.She slipped on a pair of high heels. She usually opted for black shoes, but this time, she chose a delicate pair adorned with shimmering diamonds. Her small feet looked even more slender and fair in them.Her exposed lower

Over the past year, she had matured and gained depth, her charm blossoming through various experiences. While her face remained unchanged, the essence she exuded had transformed."Thank you for sending Samuel to check on me last time," she said, lowering her eyes as she placed washed tomatoes on the cutting board.Jason grabbed her hand gently. "Let me do it." She glanced up, their eyes meeting momentarily before she looked away. "Can you manage?""I've learned it," he replied."Why did you learn to cook?" She was surprised, knowing he had a busy schedule.Because Iris had always cooked for him, he decided to learn cooking so that he could help her when she cooked instead of just standing around. However, telling her that now would only burden her, so he stayed silent. Iris didn't ask again.They had developed a good understanding after spending a year together.After dinner, they stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, enjoying the view. Jason poured her a glass of red wine. "Y

She panted softly, her eyes reflecting a mix of desire and blurriness. Her grip tightened.Perhaps it was due to the long period of emptiness. Or perhaps, it was due to the overwhelming emotions of their long-awaited reunion.The tough exterior she had maintained finally crumbled. "I heard your conversation with Professor Sandler. I could never have imagined the person I admired would be you..." she said, her voice hoarse."I've fallen in love with you even earlier than that," he replied."What do you love about me?" She felt her past self had little worth beyond her youth. Jason studied her face. Perhaps he was just attracted to her face and her eyes at first, but what made him truly fall for her was her personality.He brushed his warm lips against her neck, his breath warm by her ear. "There's no reason," he murmured before kissing her passionately, a possessive urgency in his mouth.Iris' cheeks flushed, her body weakening as beads of sweat formed on her forehead. This ki

Jason's clothes were disheveled, with several buttons on his collar undone. Iris vaguely remembered that she was the one who undid those buttons. His trousers were wrinkled, and his shirt hung loosely from his belt, a stark contrast to his usual polished appearance.He lowered his head and saw how untidy he was.Iris stepped closer, helping him button his shirt. Jason held her hand, looking into her eyes. "I can wait for you.""What will time change?" she replied, withdrawing her hand. Her mind was now clear, no longer lost in the intensity of the moment. She could think clearly now. "Don't bother taking me home. I'll go back on my own."Jason grabbed her hand again."Don't make this difficult for me," she pleaded, pulling her hand away."I'll be in the country for half a month. Will we meet again?" he asked hopefully.She pursed her lips. "Maybe.""Good night." She turned and walked quickly towards the elevator, which had conveniently arrived on their floor. As she stepped i

Thinking of that, warmth flushed Iris' cheeks. She wrapped herself in the blanket.Was she so easily seduced because she had been lonely for too long? Or was it because she liked him?She had no answer.The exhilaration of surrendering to those emotions was undeniable, and the memory of Jason's heated body and lingering kisses haunted her thoughts.That kind of physical sensation could be very addictive.Suddenly, the notification sound from her phone broke the silence. She got up to check, only to find it was a message from Brad. Disappointment washed over her; she had hoped it was Jason.[Good night, Iris. Sweet dreams.]She chuckled softly. She would be happy if she could fall asleep tonight, let alone having sweet dreams. She took a deep breath and replied: [Good night.]Setting her phone down, she wandered to the window, staring out at the dim lights, feeling an acute sense of loneliness. She went out of the room to grab a beer. When she opened the fridge, she saw Brad

"Do I need to dress up to see you?" Yvonne quipped as she headed straight to the bedroom. "Is something bothering you?" "No. I suddenly felt a bit lonely, that's all," Iris replied."If you're lonely, find a man," Yvonne said, plopping down on the bed.Iris regretted calling Yvonne over. What was she expecting?"I mean it. It's been almost two years since your divorce. Your ex-husband has remarried, but you've remained alone all this time. Even if you don't want a relationship, your body has needs...""Shut up and go to sleep," Iris snapped, unable to take it anymore."Isn't it tiring to live like a proper lady?" Yvonne asked."Better than being promiscuous like you," Iris retorted, wrapping herself in the blanket. "Good night."Yvonne turned around and hugged her from behind. "I'll never treat myself badly like you. It's stupid. You're young and beautiful, but you devote your life to work. That's so not worth it.""I'm sleepy," Iris said, closing her eyes.Her tightly purse

Brad remarked, "I'm happy because I'm thinking about someone I like."Iris raised her eyebrows. "There's someone you like? How come I don't know?""There are way too many things that you don't know," Brad replied, a hint of disappointment in his tone. "You rarely show concern for me. You have no idea what I'm thinking.""The only one who knows what you're thinking is the worm in your belly. Am I not kind enough to you?""You are," Brad chuckled.While they chatted, the car pulled up to a mansion. Unlike the Just family mansion, which was secluded in the mountains, the Vassell family mansion was situated in an upscale area of the capital, surrounded by elegance and tranquility."Wait, Iris, don’t move." Brad quickly exited, walked around the car, and opened the door for her. Iris got out and gave him a look. "You're being a bit too enthusiastic."Brad smiled without replying. He led her inside."Mom," he called out as they entered the living room. Brad's mother, Linda, elega

Iris' heart tightened, feeling both sweet and bitter, "I did it willingly. You were only in danger because you tried to help me. You went to great lengths to help me save my cousin. I'm immensely grateful."She paused, then slowly raised her head to look at him, "I can't let you die because of me. If someone has to die, I'd rather it be me, not you.""Why can't it be me?" His tone was light, but there was a subtle hint of excitement in his voice.She must loved him very much to have the courage to rush in front of him in the face of danger.Death, what a fearful word.Yet she shielded him from the gun with no hesitation."You were there to help me save someone. Therefore, you can't die," Iris answered.That was what she genuinely thought at the time.In the quiet room, the sounds of their breathing could be clearly heard. Jason gazed at her, his eyes filled with a complex emotion, "You rushed over to shield me from that gun because I helped you save your cousin? It's because yo

She asked in panic, "Who is it?""It's me."It was Jason's voice. She breathed a sigh of relief.People always felt the most insecure when they're naked."You're done eating already?"Jason wasn't very hungry because he just woke up, so he only had a bowl of soup. That's why he came back up so quickly."Yeah. What are you doing? The doctor said your wound shouldn't get wet.""I'll be careful." Iris said.Jason frowned. "Are you taking a shower?""...Yeah," Iris answered softly."I'll wash you." Jason tried to open the door, but it was locked from the inside.He raised his eyebrows. "Iris...""I can wash myself." Iris hugged herself, thinking, how embarrassing would it be if he washed her?She didn't want that.Although they had already seen each other naked, her current appearance was not pleasing, and there was a gruesome wound on her body.She didn't want him to see her in this ugly state.Yes, he had already seen her ugly side, but... she couldn't just not care.She

Perhaps the sensation was a bit itchy, as Jason stirred. Iris quickly withdrew her hand, but Jason had already woken up."What's wrong? Does the wound hurt?" Having just woken up, his voice was hoarse.Iris shook her head, "I'm fine."She felt bad. "I'm sorry I woke you up. Go back to sleep."Jason raised his head and said, "Give me your arm."She smiled and extended her arm. Jason laid his head on her arm and said, "Hug me."Iris thought he was childish.She gently patted his back like she was soothing a child.Jason closed his eyes. Smelling her scent, he soon fell asleep again. He slept for a long time, only waking up at night.Iris had also fallen asleep, but she woke up a lot earlier due to hunger. However, seeing Jason sleeping soundly, she didn't want to disturb him. Her arm was numb but she didn't dare to pull it out, afraid of waking him up."Are you awake?" Iris asked.Jason looked at her groggily, reached for his phone, and saw that it was already past two in the

Since they would be staying here for a while, someone had to handle the household chores.It was clear that neither of them nor the two bodyguards were up for the task.Donahue had always been the one responsible for hiring cleaners to clean the place, so Jason asked Lewis to contact Donahue and inquire about the cleaning staff he usually hired.Lewis immediately made the call. Donahue said he usually hired temporary housekeepers who would clean and then leave. He provided Lewis with a contact to arrange for their services.Lewis personally selected two middle-aged women. The manager said they were very experienced and proficient in cooking and household chores.He brought the two housekeepers back to the island and settled them in. After that, Lewis went upstairs to inform Jason that the housekeepers had started work and dinner was taken care of.Jason's bedroom door was slightly ajar. From the gap, Lewis saw Jason sitting on the bed talking to Iris. It didn't seem like a good

Jason's condition was that Kaden must ensure he and his people left the country safely.After discussions with the other two families, Kaden agreed to Jason's condition. With the three families working together, it wouldn't be hard to ensure the safe departure of Jason and his people.Holding Luna hostage gave them leverage over the Morris family. This deal was mutually beneficial. Jason made the deal to allow Iris to leave the country as soon as possible. After agreeing on a departure time, he left the rest to Kaden and Lewis to figure out.Jason stayed by Iris' side.Two days later, they boarded a plane to Fiji. The earliest direct flight home from Northern Burrma was the day after tomorrow, but staying in that country for another day meant another day of danger, so Jason and Iris decided to go to Fiji first. She would recover from her injury there.Iris didn't want her parents to worry, so she thought it would be a good idea to stay in Fiji for a while. She needed time to rec

When he withdrew his hand from under her, it was stained with blood.Anxious and flustered, his heart felt like it had stopped beating."Iris..." His voice was hoarse and unsteady.Iris' wound was not life-threatening. The bullet had hit her lower back.Luna did not intend to kill Iris. She just wanted to keep Iris from escaping.Iris could feel the pain now. Her body trembled uncontrollably. She felt incredibly cold despite the warm weather."I... I'm fine..." she spoke weakly, her pale lips quivering.Jason held her hand tightly, "Don't worry, Lewis will be here with a doctor soon.""Are you... okay?" she asked hoarsely."I'm fine," Jason assured her.Iris' tense heart finally relaxed a little.She had never experienced such a nerve-racking ordeal before.It all felt like a dream.Scenarios seen only on TV had become reality. She was scared out of her wits earlier, but she tried to put on a brave face. She didn't want to be a burden to them.But in the end, as a powerle

When Iris looked up, she saw Luna standing behind Jason with a gun aimed at him.Her eyes widened, pupils shaking."Look out!"She rushed forward.Luna could have pulled the trigger as she had a clear shot at Jason, but when Iris shouted that warning, she saw through Iris' intention.In that split second when Jason turned with the gun, Iris hugged him and shielded him from Luna's gun.Luna's father had told her that Jason was off-limits. Harming him could lead to endless complications and may even result in the eradication of the Morris family!However, according to their investigation, Iris had no background, so they could use whatever means necessary to capture her. Even if she got injured, it didn't matter. Therefore, the instant Iris shielded Jason from the gun, Luna aimed at her back and fired a shot.At the moment of being hit, Iris felt no pain. Her whole body was paralyzed, unable to move.She slumped in Jason's arms.Jason held her falling body. "Iris!"He fiercely

"Let go!" Frustrated that she missed him with her attack, Luna grabbed a chair leg and swung it at Jason.Jason caught the chair leg and disarmed her, then flung her away with his other hand.Luna staggered several steps back and her waist hit a sharp object. She grimaced in pain.Blood seeped through her thin outer garment.Enraged, she exclaimed, "Catch Jason Just's woman! A reward of ten thousand for whoever catches that woman!"Her men, who were starting to be suppressed, began to fiercely resist again, reigniting the intense conflict!Gunfire rang out. The sound of objects being pierced mixed with screams created a battlefield-like atmosphere!Lewis rushed out of the hotel with Iris and headed for the car. Jason followed closely behind them after getting rid of Luna.However, due to Luna's words, her men rushed at them desperately.These people were desperados. They weren't afraid to die for money.The fight for profit among the families had always been fierce!Kaden's

"The back door is blocked," Lewis informed Jason. He was outnumbered. Facing the rain of bullets outside, he couldn't break through.Although Luna was a woman, she had years of experience. She wasn't a fool. She had already stationed guards at the back door.Holding a machine gun, she said, "If you surrender, I might let you live!"Jason and Iris were trapped in a hallway, with no way out!Clearly, it would be difficult to escape from the back door. Kaden's men were at the front entrance, so if they rushed out from the front, there might be a chance to escape amidst the chaos.Jason instructed Lewis to protect Iris. Seizing the opportunity, he fired several shots at Luna.Luna had to dodge."I'll draw their attention. Lewis, when you see the chance, escape with Iris," Jason said."Got it!" Lewis responded.He still had to be wary of the shots coming from the back.It was actually very difficult to rush out.Two bodyguards suddenly rushed in, attracting the fire of Luna and h
