Although Eden appeared to be just an ordinary girl from the countryside, she was always full of surprises.Her appearance, academic achievements, social circle, and dancing skills—just any one of these was enough to astonish others.Before Jasmine even realized it, Eden had already become the center of everyone's attention.Jasmine bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall.Eden gave Jasmine a brief glance before looking away. "Now that you know the truth about the man in the photo, you should also know the truth about Facebook and the photo."Eden glanced at Ewan, who nodded and pressed a button on the keyboard. The information on the screen changed, revealing the sender's ID and the content from Jasmine's mobile.Jasmine was instantly stunned. "How... How did you..."Eden’s lips curled into a smile. "I have quite a few things that would surprise you. Would you like to see them?""No!" Jasmine screamed without hesitation.She didn’t know what

The Hunt family left.The party was completely ruined thanks to them. Sinead felt there was no need to continue with the party. It was getting late, so she announced the end of the event.Sinead and Geoffrey saw the guests off.Meanwhile, Eden made sure the students from Class 3-18 were ready to go home.Sinead had arranged transport for them. Some of the students returned to the dorm, while others went home.After Eden was done seeing the students off, Sinead had also finished bidding farewell to the guests.Seeing Eden standing alone by the roadside, Sinead walked over to her.Everything that had happened tonight was unexpected. She was worried that Eden might be upset.Suddenly, a black car made a sharp turn and sped toward Eden on the road, crashing into several cars along the way.Eden’s eyes turned cold. But when she realized the car was heading straight for Sinead, she was horrified. She ran toward Sinead, shouting, "Move!"Alain and Horace, who had just stepped out of

Sulien and the paramedic moved Sinead into the ambulance. Horace, recalling Eden's instructions, grabbed Sulien and said, "Eden said not to move the needles on Aunt Sinead. She told you to proceed with the surgery first."Sulien looked at him with a stern expression. "Ms. Eden's needles might have prevented her condition from worsening, but... it doesn't look good.""I don't care what you have to do—just save her," Horace demanded, his voice almost a growl.Sulien bit his lip and said nothing.Meanwhile, Alain was in hot pursuit of the car that had rammed into his mother. Though he knew Estburg's roads well, the car managed to escape him several times.He pressed harder on the gas, but despite his speed, the black car disappeared again.Alain's eyes narrowed as his mobile rang. It was Eden. He quickly answered, "How's my mom, Ed?"He assumed Eden was with Sinead, saving her."I left her with Sulien. I'm tracking the car now. Link up with me and follow my marker." Eden's mobile

It wasn't until Eden had already entered the operating theater that Horace regained his composure.Horace suddenly became excited, exclaiming, "That's right! Eden can definitely save Aunt Sinead!""But her heart has stopped beating," Sulien said in a muffled tone, his head hanging low. "Other than Nosoi, no one can bring her back."He wished his medical skills were better so that he could save Sinead.Hearing this, Horace's expression darkened, and he slammed his fist into the wall. "Damn it!"Alain, still watching the operating theater from outside, finally walked in.Eden was doing everything she could to save his mother. He felt he needed to be there with her.When Horace and the others saw Alain enter, they followed him, eager to see if Eden could perform a miracle and save Sinead.Inside the operating theater, Eden pulled out her needle pack and removed the white sheet covering Sinead.She selected a needle, found the precise point, and inserted it with swift, sure moveme

Eden took a deep breath, drenched in sweat, but she didn’t stop. She continued inserting the needles.When performing the Thirteen Angels’ Breaths technique, she couldn’t afford to pause. All 108 needles had to be placed in one continuous effort.Finally, Eden inserted the last needle.Sinead, who had been pronounced dead, suddenly opened her eyes. Horace, Caelus, and even Sulien stared in disbelief.After a moment of shock, Horace shouted excitedly, "She's alive! She's alive!"Eden, utterly exhausted, forced herself to speak in a weak tone, without her usual sharpness. "Don't tell anyone how I saved her."Horace quickly nodded. "Don't worry. We’ll keep it a secret."Alain noticed how pale she was and frowned. "Are you sure you're alright?"Eden looked up and smiled faintly, her lips colorless. "Not alright. Don’t let anyone disturb me. No doctors."Then, Eden collapsed on the spot.As soon as she fell, Alain rushed forward and caught her in his arms.Without hesitation, he

Eden's bedroom.Eden opened her eyes, her gaze clear. She picked up her phone and checked the time—she had only slept for three days. Usually, after performing the Thirteen Angels' Breaths technique, she would sleep for at least seven.She closed her eyes, focusing her strength in her palm. A white mist appeared, easier to control than before.If she could refine her control further, performing the Thirteen Angels' Breaths wouldn't be so difficult anymore.Eden heard Sinead's voice and decided it was time to get up.As soon as she opened the door, everyone in the living room noticed.Alain, who was replying to a text, put his phone away and stood up, speaking gently. "Let's get you something to eat first."During the three days Eden was asleep, Alain had his personal chef prepare meals daily. If the food got cold, he’d have it remade, ensuring she had something hot to eat when she woke up.Eden, feeling hungry, followed Alain to the dining room.Sinead quickly joined them, bri

For the past three days, Alain had been silently suffering. He was terrified that this time, she might never wake up.Eden had too many secrets, and he constantly feared she might just vanish one day.Eden turned to him and smiled. "I’m feeling great! A carton of beer should be fine."Alain’s expression darkened immediately. "You’ll never see beer in this house again."What the hell?She’d been in a coma for three days!And the first thing she wanted was beer?He’d hidden all of it!Eden was at a loss for words.She rubbed her head and said, "Honestly, alcohol is fine for me."Eden wasn’t a heavy drinker.She just liked to enjoy a drink.Whenever she felt down, alcohol helped lighten the burden on her mind."No!" Alain’s tone left no room for negotiation.Eden nodded. "Fine."She got up, walked over to Sinead, and checked her pulse, placing her hand on Sinead’s wrist.After a moment, Eden withdrew her hand. "She’s fine now. Her internal organs just need time to recover.

Eden rubbed her forehead, struggling to find the right words.She knew that once she used the Thirteen Angels' Breaths, her identity would be revealed.As expected, she couldn’t keep it hidden.She furrowed her brow, looked at Horace, and patted his shoulder, saying magnanimously, "Don’t tell anyone else.""Whoa!" Horace exclaimed. "You really are Nosoi?"Geoffrey and Sinead were so shocked their mouths hung open for quite some time.They had never imagined Eden and Nosoi could be the same person.After all, the rumors described Nosoi as an old man with a terrible temper and an even worse personality.So, despite Eden’s miraculous medical skills, no one had ever thought that she was Nosoi.Who would have guessed that a young woman like Eden was the famous Nosoi?Eden smiled and leaned back on the sofa, saying nothing.Once Horace regained his composure, he stood in front of Eden, studying her. After a long pause, he finally said, "I’ve been so clueless."He finally understo

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
My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 349
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
