Horace was completely stunned.Talia waved her hand in front of him. “Are you alright?”She seemed quite pleasant.“Oh?” Horace quickly regained his composure, feeling a bit embarrassed. “It’s nothing. I was just a little worried when I saw you standing here alone, so I wanted to check if you’re okay.”He glanced at Talia and asked, “Why didn’t you go back home after school? Did Alain forget to arrange transport for you?”“Well, no.” Talia tried to explain. “The driver did come, but I asked him to leave. It’s just that…”Tears welled up in Talia’s eyes. “Today’s my parents’ death anniversary. My brother and Eden wouldn’t let me visit their graves, so… I don’t want to go home.”Unable to hold back, Talia crouched down and started crying.Horace felt a surge of sympathy for her.He didn’t ask why her brother and Eden had stopped her from mourning her parents.However, Horace could tell that Eden’s decision was meant to be in Talia’s best interest. If Eden had insisted on keepin

It was already around ten in the evening when they finished dinner and returned to Skygarden.Horace and Caelus had originally planned to go home, but since they needed to pick something up from Skygarden, they came back together.At the gate, the security guard handed Alain a package. “Your package, sir.”“When did this arrive?” Normally, packages wouldn’t be delivered to Skygarden after eight in the evening unless it was something urgent.It was already past eight when they left.“Just now. The courier insisted we hand it to you personally,” the security guard replied respectfully.Alain nodded in acknowledgment and said nothing further.Once inside, Alain set the package aside, but Horace wanted to open it. “It must be something important if it was delivered so urgently. Let’s see what’s inside.”He began to unwrap the package, and Alain didn’t stop him.There had been quite a few issues lately, so it could be documents from his superiors.However, Alain found it strange.

“Go and focus on your work. Don’t worry about this,” Alain said, shifting his attention back with a blank expression.“But…”Horace wanted to say more, but Caelus dragged him away.Alain took Eden’s hand and whispered, “Let’s go.”Eden glanced at him and hesitated before asking, “Are you in trouble?”“I think so, but it’s nothing serious. The person is probably just trying to scare me,” Alain said, patting Eden’s head with a smile. “Don’t worry. I can handle this. Just focus on your studies.”“Alright.”The next day.The preliminary round for the physics competition.All the students who signed up had to attend the preliminaries at the exam halls.With the tight schedule, the results were announced in the evening after the preliminaries were completed in the morning.The preliminary questions were extremely challenging, and many senior high students had never encountered such questions before. This cut down the number of participants significantly.Out of the 300 students f

Eden ignored them and shifted her attention to Jennifer, her eyes darkening.It was no secret that Jennifer struggled academically. It was a surprise she had even made it to the finals.Noticing Eden’s gaze, Jennifer beamed a smile at her.Eden looked away, her expression almost blank.Next was Grant’s class.He was in a good mood, with five of his students making it to the finals.“You’ve all seen the finals list, right?”The preliminary questions had been set by individual countries, with no input from the international committee overseeing the competition.Still, no one dared to take things lightly.Making it to the finals required real skill.This time, the questions had been prepared by physicists from the Physics Research Institute.They didn’t release the students' scores, only whether they had passed the preliminary round.So, none of the students knew their exact results.“Even though we don’t know your marks,” Grant said, his eyes on Eden, “the principal mentione

"I refuse!" Quin stood up immediately, her face cold. "I don’t want to be stuck with people who will drag the team down. Our class is weaker. If I can’t make it to the finals because of them, wouldn’t that be unfair?"Grant’s expression darkened. "Our class isn’t that bad. We’re all in this together, so we can help each other.""I refuse to be in the same team as them. I want to be with people from the intensive classes," Quin insisted, confident she could secure her place in the finals.She had no intention of letting Eden ride on her success and make it to the finals too.The students from Class 3-18 instantly lost any fondness for her.If she wanted to team up with the intensive class students, why did she join Class 3-18 in the first place?She’d requested the transfer, yet now she looked down on them… What was the point?Everyone felt uncomfortable, but no one spoke up."I agree," Jennifer said simply, breaking the awkward silence.Grant turned to Eden. "What about you?"

After school, Eden and Alain headed straight to the hotel.Terry was already on his way to Estburg, having boarded their private jet around two in the afternoon.Knowing Eden's temper, Terry didn’t call her. Instead, he simply sent her their current location and waited. He let out a sigh of relief when she responded with, "Got it."He had been worried that Eden was toying with him.Eden didn’t think much of him.When Eden and Alain arrived, Terry greeted her, but she merely nodded coldly before walking over to August Wheeler, the old man. She ignored Terry completely.Terry smiled awkwardly and followed behind Eden without saying a word.Eden began checking August’s pulse, and her expression darkened.Suddenly, she stood up and coughed up a mouthful of blood.Alain’s face immediately twisted as he grabbed Terry by the collar, his expression menacing. "What did you do to her?!"Terry, equally shocked, frowned. "I didn’t do anything!"He’d asked Eden to treat August—if he had
My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 315
Terry remained silent, carefully considering Eden’s demand.Her change of heart had to be because of August’s condition.The price she was asking for was steep, which meant the disease—or whatever it was—was not something easy to cure.But giving up all of the Wheeler household’s assets…That would be incredibly difficult.Though he was the eldest of the grandchildren, Terry was still just a bastard. His standing in the family came solely from August’s affection for him.When August fell ill, the family split into two factions.One wanted him treated; the other didn’t.Now that Eden was demanding all of the family’s assets, they would never agree.Terry bit his lip and asked, "What kind of disease is it?""It’s not exactly a disease, but more of a toxin." Eden paused, then added, "To be precise, it’s Banevermin.""Banevermin?"Alain and Terry both turned pale.Old-money families and prominent dynasties that had been around for centuries were no strangers to toxins.Even o

Eden handed Terry a few Panacea Elixirs, instructing him to give one to August every day.Curing the Antipode Vermin was incredibly complicated. Eden asked Terry to take August home for now, assuring him that once she finished her current tasks, she would personally go and treat him.Back at Skygarden, Eden prepared another batch of Panacea Elixirs and had Alain deliver them to Terry.The next day, despite working late into the night, Eden still had to go to school. Grant had rejected her leave request.However, she ended up sleeping through most of her classes, only waking up during the last one in the afternoon.As soon as she woke up, her phone rang.Seeing the caller, Eden stepped into the bathroom to answer."Ms. Griffith, we need your help." The voice on the other end was stern.With her left hand in her pocket, Eden looked down. "What’s this about?""It’s difficult to explain over the phone. I need to meet you." The seriousness in his voice was unmistakable.Eden furro
