What in the world are you doing here?” I questioned with a stern voice.Various reasons were running through my mind. Is this like a story where the girl is finally getting her happiness and now the man who broke her heart comes to ruin it? And speaking of happiness, my phone kept vibrating in my hand, as Jonathan was calling me nonstop.“Come on, Iris, you know why I am here.” He said looking too happy for some reason I was still trying to figure out.“Did I mention how stunning you look? I know behind this hard exterior you're trying so hard to maintain, I'm certain you've been following the news that I didn't get married, and as you desire I am here for you.

Looking at his facial features, his bright green eyes, his hair, which made Gabriel clenched his jaw.“Iris, are you really married to this man? After everything we have been through together, how could you do this to me? Hold on…hold on…If the kids aren't mine does that mean…..Iris were you cheating on me when we were still together?” He walked towards Iris and grabbed her arm roughly and aggressively, with rage and craziness written in his eyes.Before Jonathan could even grab him, in a split second Iris kicked him in his private area, and before he could register the pain, she slapped him so hard and loud, it bounced through the corners of the roo

Iris and Jonathan had stopped for flowers before heading here, so they were excited to give the twins their flowers.As other parents approached the couple to interact with them and talk about some issues in the school, they were astonished when they heard Iris's name being called.“Does that sound like who I think it is?” Iris asked, looking around and finally meeting Mariana's face. She squealed, leaving James with the group of parents and ran to embrace her best friend. Mariana was wearing a black bodysuit, which hugged her curves nicely and it had such a rich cotton material and Iris was astonished seeing that in addition to how amazing

This time we were organizing the competition from at least one child from each continent and that alone had drawn a whole lot of criticism from people all over the world but thousands of parents, schools, communities, states and countries had already begun to apply waiting for guidelines.And just a night ago, Iris had waited up for me when I returned by ten p.m after the twins had already gone to bed.“You're home late…again.” She pointed out, assisting me as I took off my coat and I let out a breath, then placed a warm kiss on her lips.“It's more exhausting working on this new event and cooking at the restaurant as well.

So can you please be there for me, this one time?” By her tone, I knew she was getting frustrated and hurt but I glanced at my watch letting myself feel guilty, and concluded that I would have been back for my evening with my wife and kids.But what if I wasn't? I thought while Scarlet looked at me impatiently. “So are you abandoning me or coming with me?” Scarlet asked again, impatiently and I pursed my lips preparing myself to refuse. “I will ensure my driver accompanies you.” I told her with finality and she shook her head at me, tossing the gift bag she got for the kids at me.“I hate you.” She sniffled and slammed the door loudly and I let out a breath. *********AN HOUR LATER:I was oblivious to the fact that Ezekial's mansion was over forty-five minutes drive and to make matters worse, there was a little traffic.

I didn't care if the world found out about Jonathan and I or anything else, for now my name was not to be disclosed to Gabriel, but he knew.He had sent me an e-mail, some days ago begging as well as being mean. “Very well. You have nothing to worry about, Mariana is handling it.” She smiled softly, taking off her red bottom heels and getting comfortable on the couch. I took a seat as well, and glanced at my phone and when I didn't see a call from Jonathan, I sucked my teeth in irritation but I was getting anxious.“Weren't you supposed to be on a family date? Why am I here? As a matter of fact, where are my god-c

He was way too excited, and I was happy things were going well for both of them and for Carl and Bonnie.I retired into my room after walking them out and shut the door with the key, pretending like I wasn’t waiting for Jonathan to come into my room and explain to me. When I passed by the twins' room, I saw him arranging their things. I took off my robe and laid on my bed reviewing the documents, trying to get my mind busy. After about five minutes, I heard a knock on the door which instantly made my heart leap. “Iris.” He called out and I waited for at least five seconds before slightly opening the door.“What do you want, Jonathan?” I inquired, folding my arms, and he heaved out a breath.“I’m sorry for failing to call an

You know I have always hated those two kids since I laid my eyes on them and it was going to be easier this way. Getting rid of them as well as having Iris crying her eyes out. It's so annoying seeing her grinning from all directions of the camera, I just wish I was able to stay longer and see the tears rolling down her fat cheeks.”She tossed the little transparent bag of poison on the table stand in her room while he sat on the bed laughing at her words while keeping his eyes on her as she stripped out of her clothes. “Well, as long as there are no cameras that capture your face, it's great to keep them on their toes and have fun with them. However, you need to keep me

IRIS'S POV:Now I felt totally horrible and I ran through my face, everywhere was as silent as a graveyard which was definitely a wrong comparison given the situation at ground. To make matters worse, some medical personnels came out rolling a covered body out but stopped when they saw us. I could hear a sniffle coming from someone which I would guess to be Sophie, she hated situations like this.“I'm so sorry.” I coughed out and he smiled tightly.“I totally understand and I'm sorry for all the trauma and pain I caused you in the past, and what Gabriel is doing to you and your family. You still hit as hard as before I see. “ He joked trying to lighten up the mood as he adjusted his suit, and there was a cut on his lip.“Thank you for the suit and for this hit.

I could feel everyone's eyes glued on me and waiting for my next move.I closed my eyes for a second before hurry
My Greatest Marriage With A Sweet Stranger Shadows In The Hallway
IRIS'S POV:THAT EVENING:“I came as soon as I heard and Bonnie stayed back with the baby. What are they saying?” Carl joined us in the hallway, greeting everyone who was just as anxious. I remained silent and to myself wiping away my tears, ignoring everyone's word of comfort and encouragement, just thinking long and hard of what had possibly gone wrong. As the twins were rushed in about thirty minutes ago, we all overheard the doctors and paramedic suggest that they were most likely poisoned and Jason's condition was more critical than Jamie.From where? By who? When? “I should have been more cautious and careful. If anything happens to them, I will never be able to forgive myself.” I thought outloud and placed my head in my hand, trying my best not to break down into tears and I could feel Jonathan's muscular arm instantly pulling me.“It's not your fault, Iris. They are going to be fine.” Mariana and Sophie said in unison, just like the twins and I imagined never getting to hear

Even with little to no make up.“It's all you, love. You are so talented, passionate and amazing, it's only right you get your flowers and deal with whoever attempts to tarnish your image.” She spoke sweetly and I held onto her waist firmly, unable to wipe the smile on my face.The switch in people's words and reactions to me was quite amusing. My assistant had read what was being said now and I was just glad, the restaurant would continue receiving customers as this also affected the sales of the restaurant. “I love you so much, with everything in me!” I told her with absolute sincerity, and she cupped my cheek, pressing her lips on mine and kissing me softly.“I love you too, and the kids and I are so proud of you.” She
My Greatest Marriage With A Sweet Stranger The Battle Of The Chefs
IRIS'S POV:“In the absence of any confessions or words from either of these great chefs. Let's begin….” The announcer stated, and began cutting down along with every other person in the audience as well as the kids who were just so energetic from all that sugar intake.“3….2….1…” And they began, grabbing their utensils and everything needed.The hall was not so large, it had a capacity of two thousand people because as soon as the tickets were out they were instantly sold out. Many referred to the competition as the ‘greatest battle of the sexiest chefs.’ And what was better than watching it in person…The hall was dimly lit, and the spotlights were on the contestants who had their eyes facing to the audience and the judges who also watched how they had prepared it. I wasn't even as tense as I should be, because one of the judges was present at the revealing of this new meal and he had been one who gave Jonathan thumbs up.But I feared whoever was behind bribing Chef Ryan could also

I am Iris Knight, wife of Jonathan Knight and I will answer a few questions after sharing some words.” I spoke in a very assertive tone, speaking into the different microphones before me. “Chef's Ris was made inspired by me because I am my husband's taste, which is probably why a single bite of the meal will always make you moan or groan at its blended delicious taste. Chefs who have been in love could probably understand what I'm talking about. Chef Ryan who knows if he has or would ever experience the love Jonathan and I share, what if he truly has, won't it be great if he gathered with us by tomorrow night with it being publicly streamed, in order for the whole world to see the same passion and ease in his eyes as he cooks. We've all witnessed Jonathan Knight prepare this meal confidently for years, how come we haven't heard or seen Ryan Jared do the same?
