IRISI was at my desk in the office, sorting through papers and typing up reports, when two of my bodyguards rushed in, dressed in all black with wires poking out from their ears."Miss Iris, we need to leave now," one of them said urgently, his voice tense.I blinked in confusion, feeling the stares of my coworkers boring into me as I stood up hesitantly. "What's going on?" I asked, my cheeks flushing with embarrassment."We'll explain on the way, but we need to go," the other bodyguard insisted, gesturing for me to follow them.Feeling like I had no choice, I followed them out of the office, my heart racing with apprehension. What could be so urgent that they had to whisk me away like this?As we made our way through the crowded corridors, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at me. Were we in danger? And if so, why hadn't anyone else been notified?Finally, we reached the parking lot, and I saw Les waiting for me by the car, a grim expression on his face."Iris, we ne

Chapter 111

As Walter staggered back, his hand cradling his jaw, a twisted smile curled his lips as he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the pavement. The sight made my stomach churn with a mix of disgust and unease, but I couldn't tear my eyes away.Les stepped back, his fists still clenched at his sides, his gaze burning with fury. "What the hell were you thinking, Walter?" he demanded, his voice low and dangerous.Walter's smile widened, a manic gleam in his eyes. "I was thinking it was about time someone put you in your place," he taunted, his words dripping with malice.My heart skipped a beat as I processed his words. What did he mean by that? And what did it have to do with me?Before I could ask, Walter continued, his voice filled with bitter resentment. "You ruined my life, Les. You took everything from me," he spat, his words laced with venom.Les's expression darkened at Walter's accusation, his jaw clenched tight with barely suppressed rage. "I don't know what you're talking about," h

Chapter 112

IRISAs we stepped through the front door of our home, the weight of the day's events still heavy on my shoulders, I knew there was one more hurdle to overcome before we could fully focus on our investigation. With a deep breath, I reached for my phone, dreading the conversation that awaited me.I pressed the phone to my ear, steeling myself for the inevitable confrontation with my boss. "Hello?" I said tentatively, my voice trembling slightly.On the other end of the line, my boss's voice crackled with irritation. "Iris, where have you been?" he snapped, his tone sharp and unforgiving. "You can't just disappear without a word."I winced, feeling a surge of guilt wash over me. "I'm sorry, sir," I stammered, scrambling for an explanation. "There was an emergency, and I had to leave suddenly."But my apology fell on deaf ears as my boss continued to berate me, his words growing more harsh with each passing moment. I felt the familiar sting of tears pricking at the corners of my eyes as

Chapter 113:

IRISSome days later, As we relaxed at home, Les received a branded envelope, its elegant design catching my eye. Curiosity piqued, I couldn't help but inquire about its contents."What's that, Les?" I asked, nodding towards the envelope as he carefully opened it.He glanced at me with a smile, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "It's an invitation to a charity ball for the supreme elite," he explained, pulling out the ornate invitation. "And you're invited."A rush of excitement washed over me at his words. The thought of attending such an exclusive event with Les filled me with anticipation, but a hint of apprehension lingered in the back of my mind."Is it safe for us to go?" I asked, voicing my concerns. The dangers of our world always loomed large, even in the most glamorous of settings.Les's reassurance was immediate, his confidence unwavering. "Absolutely, Iris," he replied, his voice filled with certainty. "I've taken all the necessary precautions. We'll be perfectly safe."

Chapter 114

IRISAs Les and I glided across the dance floor, the subtle tension between us mirrored the unease swirling in my mind. The lavish surroundings of the charity ball seemed to fade into the background as I couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss about the invitation."You seem lost in thought, Iris," Les remarked, his voice warm as he guided me in the dance. "Is everything alright?"I sighed softly, my eyes scanning the room for any signs of suspicion. "I can't shake the feeling that there's more to this invitation than meets the eye," I confessed, my words laced with uncertainty.Les furrowed his brow, his gaze searching mine for reassurance. "What do you mean?" he inquired, a hint of concern coloring his tone."It's just... why was I specially invited?" I murmured, my thoughts racing. "You mentioned you get invites like this all the time, but it feels odd that I was singled out."Les nodded slowly, his expression thoughtful. "You have a point," he admitted, his voice tinge

Chapter 115: Selfish

IRISMy blood froze as I let the hand holding the phone fall.Les must have sensed the change in my demeanour because he approached me with concern in his observing eyes. “What's wrong?” My gaze slid to him, and I opened my mouth to speak but couldn't. All I knew was that my heart was beating faster than I could think. All of a sudden, my mouth goes dry, and Les had to immediately find me a chair to sit on. By now, everyone else had caught on to the fact that something was wrong and were approaching with a mixture of concern and confusion on their faces. Someone somewhere turned off the music, which made me both grateful and, at the same time, embarrassed. In a matter of minutes, my friends and family surrounded me while I tried to catch my breath and still my racing heart. I didn't even know when Les took my hand in his and was now rubbing soothing circles on it. Hilda sat on my other side, rubbing circles on my back while everyone else asked me varying forms of if I was okay. I n

Chapter 116: Lost Puppy

LESI was in the throes of my own anger, but the moment I noticed the departure of my brother, my rage softened. One glance at Iris, and she nodded at me to go after him, which I did. Entering the elevator, I pulled out my phone and accessed all the cameras to pinpoint my brother's location. It didn't take long to find him scurrying down the stairs to the ground floor. My brother has always been one to maintain composure in all things, but now, from my point of view, he was an agitated mess. Pressing the button for the ground floo, I sighed and let the elevator begin its descent to the living room. Sometimes, I wonder what my life would have been like if I had grown up with a good, normal father. Maybe I'd be some corporate guy living in a cute condo, married with one or two kids instead of having an irrational fear of intimacy and⁸8⁸⁸fatherhood. Maybe I'd be a normal guy. But I'm not. Instead, I'm messed up in the head, struggling with a trauma I wouldn't wish on anyone. Thank Go

Chapter 117:

IRISWith a sense of urgency pulsing through my veins, I exchanged a determined glance with Les, silently communicating our resolve to confront the looming threat head-on. Meera and Roscoe stood beside us, their expressions a mix of fear and determination as we faced the sinister figure before us.As the cult leader's ominous words hung heavy in the air, a wave of defiance washed over me, driving out the fear that threatened to consume me. We may have been caught off guard, but we were not powerless. Together, we would stand against the darkness that sought to engulf us.Les stepped forward, his voice steady despite the tension crackling in the air. "Who are you?" he demanded, his tone firm and commanding.The cult leader regarded him with a chilling smile, his eyes gleaming with malice. "I am merely a messenger," he replied cryptically, his voice dripping with contempt. "A harbinger of the truth that you refuse to see."I bristled at his words, the implication clear. This was not mer

Chapter 118: Vultures

IRISIt's been days since the threat was made, and nothing else has happened. Still, I lived in quiet fear, always looking over my shoulder despite Les tripling my bodyguards. The media wasn't helping either.Everywhere I went, they followed with their cameras, and they were obnoxious about it. If it weren't for the men Les hired to protect me, they would be in my face, flashing their cameras and asking me stupid questions. Even the crazy speculations they made about me still hadn't died down. People still believed I was from an old money rich family that preferred to keep their name out of the news while the majority believed I was a low lifer who inserted myself into Les and Walter's life and was content to play them against each other. I really didn't care for the gossip. I just wanted to be able to do my job and save people's lives behind the scenes. So, every day before and after work, Meera and I convened on Hannah's matter. Since that day, we hadn't made any major progress in

Chapter 119: Ignorant Bliss

IRISThankfully, I didn't have to come out here and face them. My driver, after submitting his pass to the security, drove past the vultures into the underground parking lot of the building I work in and I smirked knowing those mean nosey people won't be able to come in.Just as my driver parked, I noticed a familiar car on the opposite side of the lot and immediately guessed who it belonged to. It was a red Lamborghini. Just then, the car door opened for me and just as I stepped out, Walter Caine climbed out of his car. Our eyes met but I couldn’t decipher anything from his neutral expression. The last time I saw him was at the interview and we had departed on good terms before he disappeared for days. Now he's back.Are we not friends anymore? Will he ignore me? Should I ignore him?I realized I was at a standstill and so was he. So I made the first move and waved at him with a small smile. He didn't return my smile but he nodded my way. Okay. I guess he doesn't totally hate me t
