My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 107
Alain turned and glanced at Horace. "Go home. I'll take her back to Skygarden later."Horace could see that Alain wanted to spend some time alone with Eden.He said nothing and left.It was already two in the morning when Eden had finished a course of IV drip.Maybe because she was feeling weak, she was sound asleep the whole time.Alain didn't wake her up; he held her in his arms as they left the hospital.The wind howled, blowing her hair.Alain could clearly smell the scent of herbs from her.He had always been very sensitive to such a scent, but he didn't dislike the scent of her.He never even mentioned that the herbal elixirs she prepared tasted bad.He would accept anything without complaint as long as it was something she gave him.Alain drove slowly and made sure the ride was a smooth one during the journey.When he was back in Skygarden, Joy and the other two hadn't slept yet.When they saw him come home, they immediately went up to them. When they saw that Eden

The temperature in the room was rising.The mood was heating up.Eden looked at Alain, her fair complexion slowly turning red.It was the first time she was looking at Alain so closely. His facial features were extremely well-proportioned, his eyes dark, his nose tall, and his lips cold. Some of his hair covered one side of his face, making him look malicious.Eden stared at him, losing herself.After a moment, she finally realized where her hands were. She froze.Only then did she realize how hot his body was.His body had always been very warm, and that was why Eden loved to be with him. She was physically cold; he could pass his warmth to her.But never had his body been this scorching hot.Eden suddenly remembered something, and her lips formed a smile. She turned to look at Alain and said, "Alain, I'm still a child."She was half-lying down, her long hair scattered around, and cunning filled her clear eyes. She was not as cold as usual, but seductive instead.Alain narr

"What's going on?" a student asked."I'm dealing with some personal matters. Don't worry. I've spoken with Mr. Sullivan about this." Eden's eyes never left Laudes from the moment she entered.Eden had always been a haughty woman. When her eyes were fixed on Laudes, Laudes felt her heart skip a beat; she refused to look at Eden.After a moment, Laudes felt angry; angry that a mere country girl could scare her.How laughable!When Ewan saw that no one was moving, he stood up and slammed the table. "Why are you all still standing around? Didn't you hear the chief?"When the students heard this, they all left.However, Ewan didn't leave.Joy, who came in with Eden, also didn't leave because she was worried about her.Morris was afraid of Eden, so he left with the other students.There were only five students left in the classroom.Eden slowly approached Laudes, and a needle appeared in her hand.Laudes stood up and glared at her, smiling coldly. "What? I’ve never bothered you b

"What?" Carina's expression was one of shock.No wonder Eden was so angry—Talia was…By the gods!Everything they did to Talia... Eden was going to do the same things to them, manifold.Carina wouldn't even be surprised if Eden did the same thing to them.She was a madwoman!Laudes stopped screaming. Eden then crushed her right leg.For the past thirty minutes, screams of agony had been echoing from the classroom of Class 3-18.However, no one dared to investigate further when they heard the screams.The classroom was blocked off.A group of men-in-black with stony expressions and a murderous aura surrounded it.The students of Riverside Senior High, having never seen anything like this, stayed in their classrooms out of fear.Some teachers couldn't bear it and wanted to see what was going on, but the bodyguards blocked their view.Some teachers went to the principal, but he simply waved his hand and said, "Got it."After that, there was no further news.The teachers und

Samuel glanced at Miriam and said nothing."We need to clean this mess up," Miriam said sternly.She had been unhappy with Eden from the beginning. After the ruckus Eden caused, Miriam would never agree to let her stay at Riverside Senior High."I suppose we have to," Samuel said, then glanced at Jordan. "Make an announcement. Laudes Aradia, Carina Duran, and twenty other students involved in bullying will receive a major demerit on their records. If there's a next time, it will be expulsion."All the other teachers, except Jordan, stared at him in disbelief.Miriam was so furious that she felt a pain in her chest. "What are you doing? Laudes and Carina are the ones being bullied! Why aren't you helping them and instead punishing them?""This is my decision. Go back to work," Samuel said, waving his hand dismissively."What..." Miriam was livid. Seeing that Samuel refused to do anything about it, she felt that she was out of options.After a long pause, she roared, "Fine, I'll

Miriam stood frozen in shock, unable to process what she had just heard.After a while, she recomposed herself and said angrily, "What are you talking about? They never told me they were being bullied."Eden sneered. "Oh, is it really because they didn't tell you? Or did you know all along and refuse to do anything about it?"Suddenly, Eden's eyes turned cold, a glint appearing as she stared at Miriam, seemingly trying to see through her thoughts.Miriam nervously took a step back, scared by the intense stare.After a long pause, she said with a pale expression, supporting herself by holding the podium, "You're the ones who attacked two fellow students. To shirk your responsibilities, you are trying to frame others instead. Get out of the school right now! Riverside Senior High doesn't need trash like you."As soon as she said that, the students from Class 3-18 were enraged. They stood up, banging their tables. "What right do you have to get rid of her? She's not the one being cr

Solus’s subordinate flinched slightly but quickly regained composure and whispered into Solus’s ear, “It’s Ms. Laudes’s classmate. It wasn’t anything serious. Ms. Laudes taught a classmate a lesson, and in return, the girl broke Ms. Laudes’s arms and legs.”Solus narrowed his eyes and said icily, “Have we figured out who she is?”“We have,” the subordinate replied. “She’s Eden Griffith, the stepdaughter of the Hunt family. She’s lived in the countryside all her life and was only recently brought back. The Hunt family wants her to marry her current fiancé in place of one of their own. She herself doesn’t have much going for her, but her fiancé is not someone we can handle right now.”“Who is he?” Solus asked seriously.Having built his influence in Estburg for many years, there were few who could intimidate him.“A son of the Ward family from Rielton.”Solus paused for a moment before saying, “He really isn’t someone I can deal with. In that case, don’t kill Eden. Just break her a

Riverside Senior High.The school had finally made a decision regarding Eden’s actions against the other students.Joseph’s voice came through the speakers. “Laudes Aradia, Carina Duran… All the students involved in bullying have portrayed despicable actions. The school’s punishment is as follows: Laudes Aradia and Carina Duran will receive a major demerit, which will be recorded in their school records. The other students involved will receive a minor demerit. We hope this serves as a warning to everyone.”The entire school was stunned.Jasmine, in Class 3-1, dragged her pen harshly across her notebook, putting so much force into it that the pages were left mangled. Malice burned in her eyes as she gritted her teeth.Why?Why didn’t the school punish Eden after such a serious offense?She couldn’t believe the principal did this because of Eden alone. It must have been Alain who had intervened.Jasmine’s anger flared!What was so appealing about Eden?For Alain to go to such

Eden had never seen this scarlet rock before. It looked like it had been scorched red by fire, but it felt cold to the touch.She was immediately drawn to it, even though she didn’t think much of it as she picked it up.At first, she thought it might be something unpleasant. But as soon as she touched the rock, a surge of limitless energy flowed into her body, making her realize that her power had reached a new level.Alain finally snapped back to reality, pulling Eden into his arms and patting her head. His voice was rough as he said, “Can you please avoid doing things that make me worry like this?”Eden was taken aback. She had only picked up a rock. What was he so worried about?Then she realized that Alain and Horace had probably seen the mist enter her body.“Alright. I’ll let you know what I’m doing next time.”Only then did Alain seem to relax.He looked at the rock in Eden’s hand and said, “This is called a Styx Rock. An old man gave it to me a few years ago after I sav

The last time Horace was kidnapped, Eden did everything she could to save him.Caelus had been with her for a long time and followed her every command. She wouldn’t just let him die.The two of them had just left the entrance when Horace came rushing over.“I heard Eden is awake. Let me see her!”Horace had been outside organizing the search for the murderer. When he heard Eden was awake, he left everything and came straight over.He treated Eden like a younger sister, so of course, he wanted to visit her now that she was awake.“Yes, I’m awake,” Eden said with a gentle glance at Horace. Then, she gave a slow, meaningful smile as she curled her lips. “I’m going to save Caelus. Come with me.”Horace suddenly shuddered.She turned to Alain. “What’s with her? Why did she smile so frighteningly?”Alain didn’t respond and got into the car.Horace followed them without delay.Caelus had been in the ice coffin for three days, and his body was already starting to deteriorate.Eden

Eden had just walked out of the room when Sinead arrived.“You’re finally awake. I’ve been so worried about you,” Sinead said, taking Eden’s hand. She then checked Eden’s forehead and pinched her face. Once she was sure Eden didn’t have a fever, she finally relaxed.“I’m really sorry for making you worry,” Eden said, her usual shyness showing.“No need to apologize,” Sinead replied. “If it weren’t for you trying to save us, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt so badly. I’ve been feeling guilty about it, so don’t say anything that’ll make me feel worse, okay?”Sinead glanced around at the nurses in the villa, knowing Alain had recruited them recently. “I know these nurses have been carefully selected, but they can’t compare to me taking care of you myself. Why don’t you come back with me? I’ll look after you personally and make sure you get all the nourishment you need.”“Alright,” Eden agreed immediately.Alain, who was behind Eden, could only watch silently.It seemed he had definite

“I… I wouldn’t dare,” the young nurse said, taking a few steps back, visibly trembling.Eden looked up at her. It was clear that the nurse was frightened, though she was trying to hide it.“What’s your name?” Eden asked as she ate the oats, which tasted fresh and just right.“My… My name is Gem. Gem Scarlet,” the nurse replied, her eyes fixed on the floor, avoiding Eden’s gaze.“How old are you?” Eden inquired. Though she was only slightly older than Gem, she exuded a calm, dependable demeanor.“Eighteen,” Gem answered quietly.Eden stroked her chin, observing Gem. “Do you stutter?”“Huh?” Gem looked up in surprise. “No.”Eden continued eating. “Are you afraid of me?”Gem seemed too stunned to stutter anymore and nodded instinctively. “Yes.”But she quickly corrected herself. “No… I… I’m not afraid of you…”Gem’s eyes filled with tears, and she struggled to hold them back.She bit her lip and, with her head lowered, explained, “It’s… It’s Mr. Brooks. He said you have a bad

Even though Hades was known as the king of all Banevermins, it wasn’t always active. Once the person implanted with Hades had consumed enough blood, Hades would fall into a deep slumber.He had just committed several murders, which meant that Hades had been fully fed and wouldn’t be triggered again anytime soon.Eden figured the reason for his sudden activity was that he was searching for a safer place to hide.“The Johnsons?” Liam repeated thoughtfully. “Since Alain is investigating them, and so are you, did they really do something they’re trying to keep hidden from outsiders?”Eden considered this and then decided to share the truth with Liam. “Have you ever heard of the Shamblers?”“Shamblers? One of the kids at the Agency was reading a horror novel a few days ago, and I overheard them mention it…” Liam said, pausing as he stood up suddenly. “Wait, are you saying the things in those novels are real?”Eden thought about it and nodded slightly. “Not entirely, but it’s not too f

Liam was genuinely impressed with Eden’s progress.If his own children had achieved as much, he’d be able to die happy.Eden, however, had a headache.She already knew about it.When Alain told Horace, she was in the same room and overheard it. She was unsure whether to tell Alain or not, wondering if he could accept the world she was part of.The world where the war would take place.After thinking it over, she finally said, “I’ll take it.”“Alright, I’ll send the reply.”Just before hanging up, Liam remembered something. “You’re in Estburg finishing your senior year, right? Almost ready to graduate?”“Yeah.”“With how smart you are, I’m sure you’ll have no trouble getting into a good university. Have you thought about studying in Rielton? We could grab coffee when we’re both free.”Eden replied indifferently, “The Agency must have a lot of free time these days, huh?”“Well, not exactly. I’m working on something pretty complicated and staying busy, but I’m making time to c

Eden massaged her head, glancing at all the nurses surrounding her.They watched her anxiously, afraid they might upset her.“All of you can leave. I don’t need everyone here,” she said, irritated by the crowd.As soon as the nurses heard her, they began to cry. “Did we do something wrong? Tell us and we’ll fix it. Please don’t fire us!”"That's right. Mr. Ward warned us that if we make you unhappy, he’ll kill us.”“We don’t want to die; please let us stay.”Eden froze, then muttered under her breath, “Darn it.”Was Alain out of his mind?Since when did he become so ruthless?Eden lowered her gaze, feeling the tension rise in the room. She glanced at the nurses, who were now kneeling in front of her, sobbing.Frustrated by the crowd, she said, “Just go. Alain won’t kill you.”Turning to Sulien, she instructed, “Pay them five times their salary and send them away.”Sulien, once obedient only to Alain, now followed Eden’s lead. Without hesitation, he paid the nurses as she as

Alain rarely mobilized his organization, and it was even more unusual for him to take a personal interest in anything. But Sinead knew it was serious if he had to step in himself.She remembered the call she had received from the Gardner family earlier, and a sense of unease settled over her.Could the person Alain and Horace were talking about be connected to that?If so, Rielton would become a living hell.The moment Sinead realized this, she quickly pulled out her phone and dialed a number as she walked outside. "I need your help."Three days later, at Pear Garden.Eden woke up shortly after Alain had left.As she opened her eyes, a young woman stood in front of her, staring at her.After a moment, the young woman excitedly exclaimed, "Ms. Griffith is awake, Dr. Sulien. Look!"She had barely finished speaking when dozens of people rushed into the room. Eden instantly frowned.She had only been unconscious for a little while. What... happened?Where did all these people co
My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 346
Alain arrived just after the rest of the Ward family had left."Why are you here? Is Eden awake?" Sinead asked. She wanted to stay in Pear Garden to take care of Alain and Eden, but with the Ward family pressuring her for answers, she returned to the family residence to handle them first.They had just left when Alain arrived, and she thought Eden might have already woken up."She's still unconscious," Alain replied, unbuttoning the top button of his blazer as he sat down. "I’m here to see grandpa, and then I’ll head to the company."Sinead nodded. "He just woke up. Your uncles were here, arguing with me. He thinks it’s too noisy and doesn’t want anyone disturbing him, so don’t go in for now.""Got it," Alain said, lighting a cigarette. "Can you go stay with Ed in Pear Garden?""Alright."Sinead didn’t say much, grabbed her purse, and left.She had just reached the entrance when Horace rushed in. Without even greeting her, he hurried to Alain."Alain, he’s shown up again."Ho
