Kendra showed Iris the photo too. "Look at that woman. Look how eager she is."Iris lowered her gaze.It was a picture of Fiora caring for Stanley in the hospital after his accident, which Kendra managed to capture.Iris was aware of it, so it didn’t surprise her. Instead, a hint of disdain and sadness crossed her face.Vince glanced at the photo and couldn't help but comment, "He has no shame.""Yes, he does have no shame," Kendra agreed. "And the same goes for that woman. I bet she already started seeing Stanley before the divorce. Women these days have no morals – they just throw themselves at any man." She sounded serious when she said that."But she is pretty. Stanley is such a lucky bastard..." she continued."Mom, go talk to other people too. There are a lot of guests to entertain," he said, gently pushing Kendra away to curb her incessant chatter. He then turned back to Iris, winked, and said, "Don’t mind her."The younger generation actually got along fine; it was th

Chapter 162

Boom! Boom! Boom!!!Fireworks erupted into the sky with a deafening roar, filling the air with the sound of celebrations. Since the fireworks were set off during the day, their impact was more about sound than sight.The bride walked in, performed the wedding ceremony, distributed candy, and completed the necessary rituals before the wedding banquet commenced. The lively celebration continued until after three in the afternoon. Many guests started to leave after their meals. Only close relatives remained, invited by Kendra to enjoy a final dinner.Though reluctant, Cassie stayed behind. The large table was crowded with uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces, and the newlyweds, along with Iris' family."It's rare for our entire family to gather like this. It’s a pity Soren isn’t here," Kendra remarked. Soren, the youngest son of Iris' maternal uncle, was away studying at a university. He had two older sisters, one older than Iris and the other younger. The eldest sister was married with

Chapter 163

Iris was not looking too happy either.She was actually the one who was the most upset.The whole afternoon, everyone had discussed her marriage and criticized her ex-husband, while she could only remain silent because there was nothing to argue. Her husband had indeed cheated on her.She was indeed divorced.It was embarrassing.Cassie gasped.Caught up in her own emotions, she had failed to notice her daughter’s suffering."Iris...""I'm fine, Mom. You and Dad should take a nap; you've had a long day, and it’ll take a while to get home," Iris assured her."Oh, okay," Cassie replied, no longer daring to complain. She turned back to Dennis guiltily.Dennis shook his head, signaling her to hold her tongue. Cassie didn’t dare to upset Iris further.…When they arrived, Iris parked the car to let her parents off. Dennis waited for Cassie to exit the car before turning to his daughter. "Don’t take their words to heart."Iris gave him a faint smile. "I know.""Dennis,

Chapter 164

Lester stared at Iris in disbelief. Iris looked up, and her eyes met Stanley's furious gaze. He was staring at her like a predator staring at a prey, ready to pounce at any moment.Iris looked behind him and spotted Henry there too. Were they here for dinner?It wasn't unusual to see the three of them together, so Iris wasn’t surprised.Lester stole a peek at Stanley.Stanley's face was tense, clearly on the verge of exploding!Iris withdrew her gaze from them. She remained calm and composed, as if she didn't notice anything.With a smile at Lester and Henry, she said, "I have to go. Bye."No one replied.Henry and Lester could both feel the chill emanating from Stanley.After a moment, Henry finally said, "Okay, see you around."Jason moved a little closer to Iris, his sharp eyes casually glancing past Stanley. This provoked Stanley; his hands clenched into fists, veins standing out on the back of his hands."Um, did you drive here?" Lester asked Iris, attempting to eas

Chapter 165

The press of Jason's lips against hers sent a jolt through Iris. The soft and gentle touch felt electric, freezing her in place. Her eyes widened and her pupils trembled. Everything around her stood still in that moment. The smell of alcohol mixed with Jason's scent enveloped her.Her heart raced – pounding so fiercely it felt like it would leap from her chest!The suddenness of the kiss left her mind blank, and it took her a moment to react.When she finally came to her senses, she quickly pulled her head back to break free from his hold, but the force caused her head to hit the door frame, prompting a sharp cry of pain from her.Holding the back of her head, she winced, her face scrunching in discomfort."M-Mr. Just..."Did he even realize what he had done?"Hmm?" Jason's eyes were hazy, as though he were unaware of his own actions.Iris' thoughts were a whirlwind. It all felt like a dream. Yet the pain in her head reminded her it was all too real – Jason had indeed kissed

Moreover, because Iris had braked so suddenly, the car behind her rear-ended her instead. The impact pushed her car forward a few meters. A male driver emerged from the car behind her, approaching her while grumbling angrily. When he saw that she was a woman, his anger subsided a little.Male drivers have always discriminated against female drivers, believing in the common stereotype that women are bad drivers because they have slow reactions."Can't you drive properly?" he questioned, his tone not particularly harsh.Iris quickly exited her car to apologize. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." She acknowledged her fault; stopping abruptly like that was indeed dangerous.The male driver inspected the damage. His car's front bumper and hood were dented, while Iris' car had a slight dent in the rear and some scraped paint."Let's claim insurance," she suggested.He nodded, taking photos and making a phone call. Iris sighed, running a hand through her hair. She felt guilty for her ca

Chapter 167

Iris recalled Yvonne mentioning that Jason's background was extraordinary, but she had never been particularly interested. Even now, she remained indifferent; it was none of her business. Perhaps he simply preferred to keep his identity a secret to avoid scrutiny and gossip.Iris opened the car door and got inside the Maybach. She marveled at the luxurious interior, which was renowned for its beauty. She had never driven such a high-end vehicle before, and it felt different from any car she had ever been in. She felt a bit uneasy. Her mind was not in a good condition today, so she worried about potentially damaging it."Um, Mr. Just, should we just call for a buddy driver?" she suggested hesitantly."Step on the brake," Jason instructed, reaching over to press the start button. "Just drive it like it's your own car."Iris held the steering wheel. Jason reached over and told her, "This is the paddle shifter..."Iris was just about to ask him about the paddle shifter, so their h

Chapter 168

Iris was speechless.How could someone just approach and ask for her age like that? A woman's age was supposed to be her biggest secret. But she had to admit that at 21, Brad was really young.With a hint of humor, she replied, "I'm a lot older than you.""Well then, please take care of me," Brad said casually. He continued, "I'm the youngest intern in the law firm. When I came here, my older sister told me to get along well with everyone. Can you tell me more about the firm?"Brad's friendliness made it hard for Iris to refuse.Because it was lunch break, they settled in the lounge area outside the pantry, sipping coffee and talking about various aspects of the law firm.Despite being a recent graduate, Brad was talkative, cheerful, and articulate, and he was also a fellow intern, so Iris found it easy to engage with him."You went to the National University of Law too?! Should I address you as my senior?" he joked.Iris smiled. "You can call me whatever you feel comfortable

Chapter 169

Upon reading the last sentence, Iris was so scared that the letter slipped from her fingers.He's crazy!He was already going to prison, but he still wished to bother her after he came out?The thought of it gave her goosebumps. It was terrifying.A shiver ran down her spine. Rubbing her arms for comfort, she bent down to retrieve the letter and, without a second thought, crumpled it into a ball and tossed it into the trash can.She hoped that by the time Ted was released, he would have come to his senses. To her, a healthy love was about acceptance; possession was a toxic love. It was clear that Ted's feelings fell into the latter category.Suddenly, Jason opened the office door. "Miss... What's wrong? Are you okay?"He did not finish what he initially wanted to say because he had noticed Iris' pale face. Her shocked expression suggested she had just seen something terrible."Huh?" Iris quickly nodded her head. "Oh, yeah, yeah, I just..."She rubbed her cheeks vigorously, try

Chapter 170

The female owner had excellent taste, as reflected in the pastry shop's exquisite packaging. Iris stood in front of the counter. When she spotted the chestnut cake she hadn't had in ages, she felt a wave of nostalgia wash over her. The cake looked really tempting."What would you like?" the male owner asked as he approached her.Iris smiled and said, "Some chestnut cake, please.""Oh, aren't you...?" The male owner recognized her but struggled to recall her name."Iris," she reminded him with a friendly smile."Yes, yes, yes! You used to come here very often. I haven't seen you much since you graduated," he said warmly. "What brings you here today?""Well, I was craving the taste of your chestnut cake," she said, her smile widening.The male owner then introduced her to a few new pastries, "These two are newly developed flavors; they taste really good. Would you like to try them?""Sure," she replied. He offered her a taste, and she found them delicious.She decided to buy a
