My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 271
Eden had been struggling with insomnia. It hadn’t been too severe before, but ever since Sofia passed away, she hadn’t slept at all during the night.At first, she thought it was because she couldn’t accept Sofia's death and was still dwelling on it.But now, it was clear her insomnia had gotten worse."It's fine, though. It's always been like this," Eden said, closing her eyes, clearly drained.Quin looked at the two of them, only caring about each other and not her. Her face flushed with anger, but she said nothing.They were halfway there when Eden suddenly opened her eyes. "They're almost here."Alain knew exactly who "they" were.He nodded and then told Quin, "I'll get you a cab at the junction. You'll have to head back on your own.""Go back on my own?" Quin was almost too shocked to process what she’d just heard."What?" Alain shot her an annoyed look. "You're a grown up; you can find your way, can't you?""But..." Quin bit her lip and said, "I haven't eaten anything y

Estburg Hotel.Alain and Eden headed straight to the presidential suite on the 22nd floor.Inside, Skylar and Lucian were already waiting.Lucian's condition had worsened over the past week.When he saw Eden, he tried to sit up on the bed, but Eden stopped him.Skylar helped Lucian sit up against the bedhead and poured a glass of water for both Eden and Alain.Lucian looked at Eden, his tone filled with hope. "Can you really cure me?""Yes," Eden replied softly, taking a seat in front of him. "At someone's request."Lucian immediately knew who had made the request.He nodded, tears welling up. "When can I see him again?""I'll ask," Eden said, setting down her glass and taking out her needle pack. She checked Lucian's pulse, her expression serious. "The toxin is getting stronger. Stay here at Estburg for now, and I'll treat you every night.""Toxin?" Lucian asked in shock. "I'm not sick from a disease?""There’s a subtle toxin hidden in your body that’s damaging your intern

"Understood." Skylar was deeply impressed with Eden.It wasn't just her medical skills that amazed him; it was also what she accomplished during the auction.She won the Bloodgod Herb, and all the old-money families, including the four prominent ones, knew she had it. They even attacked her and her grandmother. Her grandmother died, but Eden remained completely unscathed.After her grandmother's death, Rielton and the old-money families had all calmed down. No one dared to step into Estburg to provoke Eden.The young woman seemed almost omnipotent.Skylar couldn't understand how a nineteen-year-old could wield so much power."Rielton is going to change completely because of her," Lucian said with a serious expression.Skylar hesitated for a moment before asking, "I’m not worried about Ms. Griffith’s personal strength, but she used 50 trillion dollars during the auction. Does she still have any money to support the Parker family?"He had full confidence in Eden, but she was stil

Once inside Skygarden, Alain arranged for Quin to stay in the same room Jasmine was in. He then ignored her and went back upstairs.Alain headed for a shower while Eden settled in to read.When Alain's phone started ringing, Eden hesitated, but the ringing wouldn't stop. She saw that it was Julius calling and decided to answer.Eden initially planned to tell Julius that Alain was in the shower and to call back later, but before she could say anything, Julius anxiously began, "Alain, can’t you ask Eden for help? I really can’t ask her myself, but the patriarch of the Wheeler family is an old friend of mine, and Terry is begging me. I can’t..."Eden was caught off guard and interrupted, "It’s me, Eden."Julius immediately hung up, leaving Eden speechless.A while later, Alain’s phone rang again. It was Julius calling back, but this time Eden didn’t pick up, assuming he wanted to talk to Alain.About a minute later, Eden's own phone started ringing. It was Julius again. After a bri

Eden was... so…Stern.But Julius actually liked that about her. The wife of a Ward should have that kind of strength in character."Then you should get some rest," Julius said nothing more and hung up.Eden put her phone away and saw Alain emerge from the bathroom with nothing but a bath towel around his waist.She looked up and noticed his strong, powerful physique. Her previously impassive expression softened slightly.Alain didn’t notice her reaction and simply dried his hair with a towel while checking his phone. "My grandpa called?""Huh?" Eden looked up again and realized how close she was to Alain, close enough that she could almost feel his abs against her lips. She stepped back slightly, picked up her book, and said calmly, "He asked me to take less from the Wheelers.""And you agreed?" Alain tossed his phone onto the table, somewhat annoyed.His grandfather had called him several times, asking him to convince Eden to be lenient. Alain hadn’t agreed to it, and he did

Eden was stunned."Are you asleep, Alain? Something's wrong with my mobile. Can I borrow your phone to call my mom?"Alain suddenly froze.Outside the door, Quin had been waiting for a long time and was now fuming. She stomped her foot in frustration.Darn it!Alain was supposed to be hers.Quin's hands clenched into fists as a determined glint appeared in her eyes.Eden... You took Alain from me. I won’t show you any mercy!The next day.The sun slowly rose into the sky. After struggling with insomnia for nearly two weeks, she finally had a good night’s sleep.Alain didn’t get out of bed until the afternoon, by which time Caelus and Horace had already arrived.When Alain and Eden came downstairs, still in their pajamas, Horace was so shocked that he jumped up from the sofa. "Hot dang, Alain! Don’t tell me you two have only just woken up?"Alain shot him a glance and a pointed look. "Who told you to come back here?"Horace, feeling a bit flustered under Alain’s gaze, quick

When Horace came out of the kitchen, he noticed Eden was playing a game on her mobile. He took a quick glance at her."You play City of Glory too? I didn’t know that," Horace said. He had originally planned to leave, but seeing Eden gaming, he decided to sit down next to her.Alain, hearing this, looked up and glanced at Eden. He knew she usually played minigames—some single-player, some quite challenging. He’d tried a few of those games himself but struggled to get past the first stage.He thought she only played the more complex games, so he was surprised to see her on City of Glory."A little," Eden replied casually, her playstyle relaxed.Horace looked at her account and smiled. "Gold rank, huh? Don’t worry, I’ll guide you."Horace pulled out his mobile and said to Alain, "Alain, you play City of Glory too, right? We don’t have anything important this afternoon, do we? Let’s play a few games."Alain glanced at Eden and handed his mobile to her. "You play."Eden hesitated as

Meanwhile, Horace was getting a bit too excited. "Eden, stay there and don’t move! Eden, hide in the grass!"He was shouting the entire game.Most likely because Eden had been goofing around the whole time.Horace's heart was about to break.When the boss finally appeared, Horace gave up on Eden and went straight to fight it.Horace and Ryan were both at Glory Rank, while Alain’s account was at King of Glory 50 Stars, which was very high. That made the boss’s level much higher and especially tough to beat.They fought the boss together, but it was still a challenge.As the fight neared its end, with the boss down to only 5% health, Horace shrugged. "Looks like we can’t take this boss down."Just then, Eden’s finger moved quickly. With only two seconds left, she pulled out a Sword of Bloody Tears from her inventory, used her skill, and the boss’s health dropped to zero, dropping a Lazuli Fan.Horace was speechless.Ryan was stunned.Even their own teammates were at a loss for
