My Wife, the Iron Lady Chapter 48
In the afternoon, Eden's post appeared on Riverside Senior High's message board.New messages continued to pop up for ten minutes.["Whoa. The transfer student really got under Simon's skin? She's gutsy!"]["I might organize a party for her. Simon's in for a world of hurt."]["She's so pretty. Why does she have to mess with Simon? Can't she just live her life?"]Most comments centered on how Simon would respond to Eden.Quietly, many were pleased with Eden's actions.Many students had been bullied by Simon at some point, but the influential Navarro family made it hard to fight back.With someone standing up to Simon, those bullied found solace in Eden's actions, though they feared openly supporting her.Simon still roamed the school, making students wary of becoming his next target.In the afternoon, Miriam Albanese's class began.Aside from Grant, the students of class 3-18 showed little respect for their teachers.Miriam's class was chaotic. Some students dozed off while

"Don't worry about the invitation. The Agency will handle it," Liam reassured."Alright, thanks," Eden replied, massaging her forehead. She wondered if her account had enough funds.A starting bid of 10 billion Kentran Dollars. She probably couldn't win the bid even with 100 billion Kentran Dollars.Not to mention the old money families were alerted. It wouldn't be easy to get her hands on it.Liam sighed, "You don't have to be so distant with me, K. You're part of the Agency, a member of our family. No matter what happens, the entire Agency will be there to support you."After a pause, Liam added, "You don't have to worry about the money either. We'll gather the necessary funds for you.""It's fine," Eden said with a frown. "Just give me all the jobs."Looks like she had to earn some more money.When Liam heard this, he laughed. "I never thought I'd hear you taking jobs just for money. Everyone knows you don't care about money. If Black Panther and the others found out, they'd

Jasmine glanced at her, wondering why the girl looked like she had seen a ghost.She still nodded anyhow."You didn't know? In the afternoon, your older sister broke Simon Navarro's leg in the cafeteria. Carina Duran's wrist was also broken. I heard that the doctor at the hospital can't mend his broken leg."Jasmine was taken aback. She really didn't know about it at all.However, she couldn't help but quietly smile when she heard that. She hid it very well, of course. No one had seen it.She lowered her head and sighed. "She was brought up in the countryside, so it's commonplace for her to fight or play truant. She's difficult to get along with. With that temper of hers, I wonder what kind of trouble she'll start next."Eden was going to pay for messing with Simon.So what if she had Alain's support?Simon's family, the Navarros, were also quite influential. Would Alain risk an altercation with the Navarros for his fiancée, whom he had just gotten to know?Her opportunity wou

"You're right," Eden said lazily as she put away her mobile.Ewan was overjoyed. "You're okay with it, then?"Eden stopped and looked at him. "I disagree."As they spoke, they reached the school entrance.Eden originally wanted to get a cab, but Alain had offered to pick her up.However, there was traffic on the road, so he asked her to wait for a few minutes.Eden was still buzzing in her ears. "Please, don't. Can you think about it… Eden, behind you."Eden turned around, and about thirty men in black started to surround her and Ewan.One of the men stepped forward and looked at Eden without any expression. "You're the one who broke Master Simon's leg?"Eden smiled coldly, her hands in her pockets, speaking back to them like she was a mafia boss herself. "Are we doing this solo or all at once?"Ewan had never seen so many enemies before, but he still gathered his courage and stood in front of Eden despite his fear. "You have to take me down first."Eden raised an eyebrow an

Alain took Eden's bag, held her hand, and asked softly, "You hungry?"He didn't mention anything about the fight."A little," Eden said lazily, as if the fight hadn't happened at all."Let's go get a bite."Eden nodded, saying nothing, and followed Alain into his car.Ewan, trailing behind them, still hadn't recovered his composure.Once they were all in the car, Horace wanted to ask Eden many questions but wasn't sure if he should. He'd had enough of being looked at like a fool by Eden. Another question, and he feared he'd forever be known as the fool to her.The drive was silent, with no one saying a word.Alain didn't ask Eden about the recent events either.After they'd been driving for a while, Eden suddenly looked up and asked Alain seriously, "Do you know anyone who has untreatable diseases or is on their deathbed?"Alain raised an eyebrow. "Yes."Horace, curious, asked, "Why are you asking?"Eden leaned against the car window and said sluggishly, "I need money.""M

Alain wasn't short on cash. If Eden needed money, he could give it to her. However, he noticed that she was quite prideful. She would never take anything from anyone for free. If he were to really give her the whole 700 billion, she wouldn't take it either. Introducing her to new business opportunities was much better.Eden's eyes lit up with interest as she stood up straight. "That works."The fire in her eyes didn't escape Alain's gaze as he said with a smile, "The other one is from Rielton. He probably can't afford to pay you so much, but I'll try to get him to pay you 50 billion."After a moment of pause, Alain continued, "He has been paralyzed for about ten years, so get ready for that."When Eden heard that there was work, she instantly popped back to life. She massaged her chin and gave it some thought. "If I can fully heal him, can I ask for extra?"Alain raised an eyebrow. "He'll pay extra with me around."He realized he had underestimated Eden when he saw her being so c

Eden picked up the call outside."What is it?"Her tone was still icy."I've done everything as ordered," a stern voice came from the other side.Eden's hand was in her pocket as she looked down at the floor. "Alright. Do what you have to.""When will you be coming? There are a lot of things that await your decision."Eden frowned slightly. "If I need to do everything myself, what's the point of having you around?"The person stayed silent for a while and then said, "I've overstepped my boundary.""I'll look for you once I'm done on my end."Eden could see the streets outside from the window by the stairs. The sky was slowly darkening, and the lights from the lampposts were shining in from the window. The light on her face made her look even more cold-hearted.Eden hung up, her eyes frosting over. She needed to find out more about Jerred's heart quickly.Horace had drunk about ten bottles of beer, and he was starting to get a little drunk.Eden also had no appetite to eat m

When Jerred passed away, Eden hadn't moved to Estburg.Not to mention, Eden had grown up in her grandmother's home and had never interacted with anyone else from the Hunt family. How did she know Jerred?Eden's face twisted with anger as her fingers tightened around Alain's collar. The crimson light in her eyes revealed her murderous intent. "You caused the accident and took his heart… You think you can hide the truth with a fake donation agreement?"She sneered, lusting for blood. "I'll rip your heart out so that you can die along with him!"Eden raised her other hand, but Alain, sensing something was wrong, instantly moved away. Needles buried themselves in the wall behind him.She abandoned launching more needles and started to fight Alain hand-to-hand.She fought with complete disregard for her own safety.Alain initially tried to evade her attacks, but when he realized he could no longer dodge, he quickly went on the offensive and overpowered Eden after a few exchanges. He

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
