All Chapters of My Wife, the Iron Lady: Chapter 311 - Chapter 320

“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

"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?"

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

After hanging up, Xander hesitated and said, “Ms. Griffith, you might have to take a cab back. The boss needs me to go to him immediately.”Eden nodded, her face impassive. “Pull over.”Xander pulled to the side, and just as he did, his phone started ringing again. Eden overheard him say, “The boss already called. I’ll head over soon. I’ve deployed everyone available in Estburg to help the local police search for Mr. Brooks.”Eden was about to leave when she heard this, and her fingers froze. She narrowed her eyes, deep in thought.Xander continued his conversation before hanging up.Eden looked up, biting her lip. “What happened to Horace?”“Huh?” Xander turned around, surprised. “You’re still here?”He had been preoccupied all day, so when the call came, he was focused entirely on it, not realizing Eden hadn’t left. Did she hear everything?“What happened to Horace?” Eden asked again, her frown deepening as the atmosphere around her grew even colder.Suppressing her growing

Eden emphasized once more, “Remember, I want every single piece of security camera footage.”Jason nodded. “I’ll have my team get on it. What else do we need?”“Do we have the bodies of the people who disappeared from Estburg?” Eden asked.“We do.”“Then let’s head to the forensics lab and get the equipment ready.”Jason nodded and instructed his team to prepare.He didn’t think twice about following the orders of a 19-year-old girl.Once Jason left, Eden turned to Alain. “Do we have anyone in Rielton?”“We do,” Alain replied with a smile, his hands in his pockets.“What about Estburg?” Eden asked, smiling as if nothing was wrong.She was in no rush.“We do as well,” Alain said, his eyes narrowing and his smile widening.She looked different when she was serious.“Arrange for our men to guard all the entrances and exits in Rielton and Estburg.”“Alright.”Alain gave Caelus a look, and Caelus immediately understood and left.Eden didn’t glance at him again and went strai
