"Okay."

Vince looked like he wanted to say something, but Elise was already gone.

Iris told Vince, "Vince, I have to go abroad for a while. You and Elise can stay here while I'm gone. I've also arranged for someone to find Rachel, so don't worry too much. Be good to Elise during this time. The baby is still young; his family can't break apart."

"Okay." Vince seemed to have a lot to say to Iris. His eyes were full of gratitude. "Iris..."

A grown man like him was surprisingly choking up. "Thank you, to you and your boyfriend."

"Huh?" Iris asked, "How do you know that Jason's helping you find Rachel? Did he tell you?"

"What? He's the one helping us find Rachel? He didn't tell me. I want to thank him because he offered me a job," Vince said excitedly. "The salary is forty thousand dollars a year."

Iris looked at Vince in astonishment.

Vince grabbed Iris' shoulders. "I can't thank you enough. When my restaurant ran into trouble, it was you and your boyfriend who helped me too. And

    "What's this? Why are you so affectionate all of a sudden?" Jason hugged her waist.Iris looked up. "Thank you, Jason."His gaze lingered on her face, a faint smile playing on his lips. "They're your relatives; of course I have to help."A warm feeling spread in her chest, and Iris buried her head in his embrace. "Don't be so good to me."She would fall for him.She would fall head over heels for him."But I want to be good to you," Jason stroked her cheek, his fingertips tender and affectionate as they gently caressed her face.Iris looked up, the moist in her eyes concealing the emotions within. The faint smile on her face subtly conveyed her affection.She leaned in and lightly touched her lips with his, then quickly pulled back."I'll take a shower and get changed," she quickly left his embrace.Jason was stunned at first, but a faint smile soon appeared on his face.After closing the bathroom door, Iris stood in front of the sink, looking at herself in the mirror.She

    Jason wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "What about fireworks?""Huh?" Iris turned to look at Jason. "Who would set off fireworks..."Before she could finish her sentence, a burst of fireworks exploded in the sky, illuminating the beautiful night with vibrant colors. Following that, an elegant arc streaked across the sky, bursting into a magnificent display of colors. One after another, fireworks lit up the sky, making the entire city shine."It's so beautiful," Iris gazed out the window, her eyes reflecting the colorful lights."Did you prepare this as well?" she asked.Jason asked, "Do you like it?"Of course, Donahue was also the one who came up with this idea.Iris nodded. She liked it. She really liked it. She really, really liked it."You're so cute." She suddenly felt touched by Jason's awkward romantic gestures.She leaned on Jason. "Thank you.""You've thanked me so many times today. Don't be so polite with me," Jason said.Iris didn't know why she said that.

    "My cousin's baby is so cute and cuddly. With your good genes, our baby will surely be smart and lovable. Having a baby with you doesn't sound so bad. Even if we don't get married, I can raise the child on my own. With my income, I can easily afford to raise a child."Jason was speechless.What did she take him for?"Hah." He pinched Iris' cheek. "Dream on. If you get pregnant, I'll marry you. It's a package deal, buy one free one.""I don't want to get married.""You have to."Jason lifted her up and carried her to the bedroom.He placed her on the big, soft bed. Her body sank into the fluffy covers.His robust body then pressed down on her. She hastily pushed against his chest. "You said taking pills is bad for the body.""You said you'll just give birth if you get pregnant.""I... I was just kidding. You actually believed that? You're a famous lawyer; how can you fall for such a simple lie?"Jason chuckled softly. "Glib-tongued."Iris chuckled as well, and as they laughe

    Then his injury was worth it."Where's Mr. Just?" He instinctively glanced towards the door."He went to see the doctor to ask about your condition," Iris said.Samuel felt grateful. "I'm an orphan. I'm lucky Mr. Just took me under his wing. Oh, right. I heard from Mr. Just that you paid my hospital bills? How much was it? I'll pay you back," Samuel grabbed his phone.Iris declined. "It wasn't much. I only made the first payment; the rest was covered by Jason.""Thank you anyway." Samuel suddenly understood what Jason liked about Iris.It wasn't just her good looks.She had a kind heart too.Just then, Jason walked in.He stood by the bed. "The doctor said you just need rest. You'll be fine after a while.""Thank you, Mr. Just." Samuel had heard from the hospital staff that Jason had arranged for the best doctor to perform his surgery.He was also staying in a VIP single ward, with a professional caregiver looking after him."You should just focus on recovering in the hospi

    "The Morris family?" Jason chewed on those two words."Yes. Fraud crimes are rampant in Northern Burrma, and they're basically monopolized by the four major families. This is the detailed information of the Morris family and the other three major families," the man handed a file to Jason."I see. You may go," Jason said."Since you just got here, would you like me to send a few people over to assist you?" the man asked.Jason nodded. "Send a few men who are reliable and trained in combat.""Got it."As the man was walking out, he spotted Iris. Since she was already seen, Iris decided to open the door and walk out.The man nodded at her and left.The door closed.Iris walked over to Jason and sat down on the couch. She looked at the file he was holding."Is it hard?" she asked.She knew that Northern Burrma was a very unsafe country, and with the prevalence of underground industries, she was worried about Jason putting himself in danger to help her cousin.Moreover, she had

    "Huh? It's already so late, there's not much else we can do today. If you want to check out the temple, let's do it since I happen to be free now," Jason said."Okay," she replied eagerly.She then looked at him.Jason frowned slightly. "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"Iris withdrew her gaze. She just felt that Jason was too kind to her.He's spoiling her too much.She didn't have to worry about anything when she was with him.He also cared about her feelings and went along with whatever she said."Let's go," she said, pulling Jason along."By the way, did you not bring any casual clothes? You're always wearing formal clothes," Iris held his hand. "When we go to Fiji, can you not dress so formally?""Sure, but..." he leaned in, deliberately whispering in her ear, "you have to buy the clothes for me."The heat of his words fell directly on her sensitive earlobe.Iris instinctively shrank her head back. "Why should I buy them for you?"

    Jason knew the reason for her sudden tenderness.He lifted her chin. "Don't feel burdened. I don't want you to be nice to me just to repay me."What he wanted was her love.Even if she didn't love him now, he could wait."Everything I do for you, I do willingly. I'm not doing these things to make you feel grateful to me."Gratitude was indeed part of the reason, but not the entire reason. Iris also just wanted to be a bit nicer to him. To be honest, she's not even doing that much for him."Does this even count as being nice to you?" Did she treat him so terribly before that even the slightest kindness from her was noticeable to him? It seemed like she had failed as a girlfriend."Go shower," Iris removed his shirt for him.He had a robust physique. Due to a life of luxury, his skin was delicate and smooth, not rough at all."Okay." As he walked to the bathroom, he undid his belt.Iris casually draped his shirt over a chair and sat on the couch. She picked up the book nearby a

    Iris lay on the bed. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She got up and sat on the couch. She didn't feel like watching TV.She checked her phone, but there was nothing interesting to do.She noticed a shirt draped on a chair. It was the shirt Jason took off yesterday.She took it to the laundry room.After doing the laundry, she noticed the table was messy, so she tidied it up.Now, the suite was all clean, and there was nothing else to do.The TV was on, but she had no idea what was playing. Her gaze wasn't focused on the program. Her mind was wandering far away.Suddenly, her phone rang.She immediately picked it up. When she saw that it was a call from Yvonne, her eyes, which had lit up, dimmed again.She thought it would be Jason...The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.She answered the call."Why does a newlywed like you have time to call me?" she asked as she lowered her eyes, playing with the hem of her shirt absentmindedly.Yvonne ignor

    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
