Iris surveyed the firm. Everyone seemed to be absorbed in their own tasks.However, she refused to let things slide. If she backed down now, people would just mess with her again.From now on, she could only rely on herself. To establish herself at the law firm, she had to be assertive; she couldn't be soft.She headed straight to the surveillance room and reviewed footage from that morning.Someone had indeed moved all that stuff to her desk. It was Astra Yorrick, a lawyer at the firm who often gossiped about Iris behind her back.Iris had worked at Golden Path for a year now, so she was familiar with the personnel there.Astra's abilities as a lawyer were lackluster, so she wasn't an important personnel at the firm. However, she loved to talk behind others' backs.Astra was already messing with Iris right after Jason's departure.Iris found it laughable.If she had so much free time, she should have used it to brush up her skills and knowledge as a lawyer. Instead, she chose

"Do you have evidence? Show me the evidence. You're a lawyer; you should know you must have evidence to make a claim. Where's your evidence?"Astra retorted, "You know it's true.""I don't know. You seem to know better than I do. Show me the evidence," Iris replied.She did not raise her voice even once. She kept her voice steady but her words sharp.Astra was merely talking bad about Iris because she was jealous. She naturally did not have any evidence."Why did you put these things on my desk?" she asked, attempting to change the subject.Iris scoffed, "You know why.""I don't," Astra said, glaring at Iris.Iris pressed, "Do you want me to show everyone the surveillance footage?"Astra fell silent, unable to counter.The reason she did not delete the surveillance footage was because she thought Iris would keep quiet even if she found out that Astra was the one messing with her since she no longer had any backing with Jason gone. Astra did not expect Iris to confront her so

"Okay," Brad answered.Iris reviewed the information she had organized the night before while Brad focused on driving. Even though he was curious about her relationship with Jason, he refrained from asking; she was clearly in a bad mood, and asking her would only make her mood worse. She might get so angry that she would stop mentoring him, which would be a huge loss for him.Upon arriving at the location to meet the client, they both exited the car.Iris engaged in extensive discussions with the client, confirming many details, while Brad dutifully took notes. Although these notes weren't strictly necessary, Iris had him do this for two reasons: to train his patience and to teach him how to gain a deeper understanding of a case. The more one knew about a case, the better they could identify points for defense and counter-arguments.Brad was very obedient today. Since Iris was in a bad mood, he did not think it was a good idea to make her mad.Throughout the discussion, Iris' expr

Iris hurried to the kitchen, saying, "I'll make lunch for you."Professor Sandler, however, pressed on, "I know he's busy, but surely he has time for lunch, right?""He's left the law firm. He's gone abroad," Iris answered while unpacking the items she had bought."He's left the law firm?" Professor Sandler exclaimed, surprised.That can't be. He had pursued Iris so tenaciously; how could he just leave?"What happened?" Professor Sandler asked."Being a lawyer isn't his main profession. You know that, right?"Professor Sandler settled onto the couch. Of course he knew.So he left because he was busy?"When is he coming back?" Professor Sandler asked.Iris gazed at the tomatoes in her hand, her eyelashes trembling slightly as she answered in a sad tone, "He's not coming back.""Huh?" Professor Sandler frowned. He could sense the sadness in her voice, so he chose not to ask more questions. He could simply call Jason for answers later. Instead, he walked into the kitchen with

Professor Sandler looked like he wanted to persuade Iris, but he quickly realized that her concerns were valid. Marriage involves not just two individuals but two families. He thought Jason and Iris could make it work this time, but Fiora's relationship with Stanley complicated matters. Jason's parents would surely have a hard time accepting Iris, given her past as Stanley's ex-wife.With a sigh, Professor Sandler pondered whether they truly were not meant to be together even though he felt they were perfect for each other. "Never mind; I won't interfere in your private life," he said, placing the washed vegetables in a basin before walking out of the kitchen with his hands behind his back.Iris pursed her lips tightly. She composed herself and started cooking.After she was done cooking, she served the dishes and set the table. Professor Sandler walked over, his thoughts still preoccupied with Iris and Jason's relationship. He couldn't help complaining in his mind: How blin

Iris was in no mood to talk. Yvonne shook her gently, asking, "Do you want me to take you out to relax?""Not interested," Iris replied, looking visibly exhausted.When the takeout arrived, she only picked at her food, taking just a few bites before losing interest.It wasn't that the food wasn't tasty; she simply had no appetite.Yvonne received a phone call. She asked Iris if she wanted to join her. Iris declined."Then I'll see you next time," Yvonne said while getting up."Mmh," Iris responded absentmindedly.After Yvonne left, Iris packed up the food and decided to go to bed early.The day of the trial arrived as scheduled. Despite her best efforts, the trial proved challenging, and the outcome was not what she had hoped for. The client commented, "Honestly, it's better than what I expected. There's a big difference between five years and ten years. I'll reform well, show good behavior, and try to get released early."Iris remained silent. The outcome wasn't satisfactor

Wendy stood up and gestured to the various luxury items she had purchased, sprawled across the couch. "Bring them up for me," she commanded, treating Renee like a servant."In your dreams!" Renee yelled back defiantly.Wendy leaned casually against the staircase railing, her expression filled with contempt. Cold and calculating, she resembled a predator, no trace of weakness remaining."Don't waste your breath with empty threats. You can't do anything to me. If anything happens to me, that video of you murdering someone will land in the police's hands. That boy will also receive a copy. When he learns who killed his mother after he grows up, there's no way he'll spare you. He'll send the Stein family into chaos. The video will also be leaked to the media, exposing your crime to the world. It'll become a scandal for the Stein family, and the family business' stocks will plummet as a result. And your dear husband, the person you care about the most? When he finds out that his lover di

Iris walked out of the shop with the cake in hand. When she spotted Renee, she ignored her.Renee finally recognized the qualities Iris possessed when she compared Iris to Wendy — Iris was cultured, well-mannered, polite and respected her elders."Iris," Renee called out involuntarily.Iris merely looked back for a second before getting into her car.Renee stood frozen in a daze. If Iris were still her daughter-in-law, she mused, she wouldn't have to endure this humiliation. A shiver ran down her spine at the thought of Wendy. She perceived Wendy as a devil. Wendy was the most evil person she had ever seen! She couldn't imagine how a person could be that evil.Yet, Renee never considered her own flaws while judging others.Renee's unexpected appearance did not make Iris feel anything. She entered a restaurant's private room with the cake. The private room was filled with Brad's friends. They were playfully teasing him, saying, "You don't race with us anymore. You barely even ha

When Iris opened the door, she was shocked to see that it was Samuel. "What are you doing here?" she asked, puzzled.Samuel replied, "Mr. Just is not in the country. He asked me to check on you. Do you need anything?"Jason had seen Iris' message, but she had deleted it before he could listen to it. Concerned about her, had sent Samuel to check if everything was alright since he was abroad.Iris tightened her grip on the doorknob. Something stirred in the bottom of her heart. She tried to sound calm as she said, "I'm fine.""I'll be in the country all month. If you need anything, feel free to call me," Samuel said, handing her his business card. "Here's my contact."Iris hesitated for a moment before taking it."Are you sure you're fine?" Samuel asked, noticing her pale complexion.Though Iris had forgotten about her stomach pain because she was preoccupied with her thoughts, her complexion gave away her condition. She forced a nod. "I'm fine. Really."Samuel studied her for a

Iris didn't stop. She felt that they weren't acquainted so there was nothing to talk about.Fiora chased after her, tugging on Brad's arm as she ran past him. "Help me out."Brad thus followed behind her, saying, "If she doesn't want to talk to you, don't force her..."Fiora shot him an annoyed glare. Brad was speechless. Why did she glare at him? She was still the same spoiled brat."Wait, I'm not here to be your enemy," Fiora called as she caught up with Iris.Iris had to cross the street, but the continuous flow of traffic forced her to stop, giving Fiora a chance to catch up to her."I just want to apologize," Fiora said.Iris turned back in surprise. Those unexpected words caught her off guard. She did not expect it from Fiora at all.Why would Fiora suddenly apologize to her?"I know Stanley's married now. He married that evil woman," Fiora continued.Learning that Stanley had married Wendy had changed Fiora's opinion of Iris, but it wasn't until last night that she t
