LOGIN"But you said 'Yes' when I proposed," Chase still refusing to let go. Iris shook her head with regret. She doesn't know how she didn't see this side of Chase. He refused to see what was staring right in front of his face. "Let me clarify that for you. I never said yes to your proposal. I didn't say anything. I was shocked by what you did. I was already married by then. How did you even hear that it was a yes? Even after my marriage was announced, did you not think for a moment if I really said yes that day? As if it's not enough, you are tugging and pulling me in front of the student body. What are you planning to do? When did I say that I was being forced or that I am not happy? You assumed everything, and it's you who is forcing me now," she replied. Even though she is not speaking loudly, even though her tone is soft, still every word landed like a slap across his face. "Don't deceive yourself, Iris. You were with me for two years. Do those two years mean nothing to you? Our m
The next morning, Iris felt eyes on her when walking in the college corridor. Not just one or two, but many. Almost everyone is looking at her and murmuring among themselves. Luckily, no one approached her, for which she felt relieved. This is the first time she is walking these corridors as Mrs. Knight. Not Ms.Jones. Now she has the Knights' name attached to her. "Iris," Sara appeared from behind her. Iris gave her a tentative smile, half sheepish and half apologetic. "So, Mrs. Knight has? You didn't even tell me," Sara complained good-naturedly. Iris looked guilty. "I couldn't. I was scared it would become real if I started speaking about it out loud," she replied softly. Sara looked at her best friend with mixed feelings. "So it was the Joneses who made you take Natasha's place?" she guessed. Iris nodded. "They are despicable," Sara muttered, angry on behalf of Iris. "It's all in the past now. I am fine. So let's not talk about that," Iris murmured. Sara nodded as the
The party winded up around midnight. The cleaners were cleaning the house while Knights looked lost. Especially Arthur, Alex, Chelsea and Samantha. Desmond is sitting on the couch holding his head in both hands. He looked stressed and aged 5 years over night. Xavier and Iris left early. "Dad, Xavier is going too far. You might have said something, but he shouldn't be behaving like this. He left his family at a time like this?" Samuel complained. "Yes Grandfather, elder brother is too much. How can he just ignore us like this?" Asher agreed with his father. Desmond is angry at Arthur, and Alex. He is also upset with Xavier. 'He said I am nit picking at everything. I thought he was ignoring his work. How would I know that he is reevaluating the contract. He left us to suffer the consequences. Is he so upset to continue his marriage with the Jones daughters? Is that why my comment stung? He must be upset that I decided that he should keep Iris as his wife. He wanted a divorce. Tha
"Looks like aunt is already practicing how to beg. You cannot afford to buy such an expensive jewelry in the future anyway" Xavier commented from behind. Everyone froze. Samantha turned her head slightly to look at Xavier and Adam behind him. When she noticed Adam, her demeanor changed from the nasty to elegant in a second. "Xavier, i am your aunt. Your elder. You cannot talk to me like that" Samantha reprimanded Xavier. But Xavier ignored her momentarily and walked towards Iris and wrapped his arm around her. She is as stiff as a board. Only when he came did she dare to breath. "Brother Xavier, What do you mean by mom has to beg? We can afford to buy it?" Chelsea demanded with a hint of displeasure. Xavier rubbed Iris on her back before responding to Chelsea. "My dear sister, your dearest dad has sold all his shares to the Roth's. Just now I heard it from grandpa . So you see, except for the money in your accounts, which might not be much, you owe nothing. So i wonder how you
In Desmond's study, Arthur is on his kness infront of a very furious Desmond. Jensen Roth is seen sitting in a chair watching everything unfold. Matthew Knight looked like he is yet to recover from the shock of what was happening here. That's what Xavier and Adam walked into. Samuel meekly followed after them. Adam raised an eyebrow, clearly stunned. Desmond glanced at Adam with a frown. "Mr. Stark, this is a family issue..." Desmond tried to send Adam away. Because he clearly doesn't want anyone finding out what his good for nothing son did. But Xavier interrupted Desmond. "He is like a brother to me, so he will stay" Xavier cut off Desmond mid sentence. Something he wouldn't have done normally. Desmond became stiff. Jensen smirked. "Well, now the CEO and the acting head of the Knights arrived, can we proceed?" Jensen began. Xavier glanced at him lazily. "Mr. Roth, my grandfather is the head of the Family. I am just the head in name only. And moreover, my uncle Arthur wa
In the Knights residence, Xavier and Iris were seen unfolding from their limited edition car. Iris was seen wearing a beige coloured mermaid dress with her shoulders and arms bare. The bodies of the dress is adorned with rhinestones and thread detailing. The dress hugged her frame till her lower thighs before flaring down till her ankles. She is wearing 3 inch heels. Her hair is twisted into stylish bun and sitting at the nape of her neck. That's not what attracted everyone's attention. It's the blue colured rare gem stome chocker she was wearing with matching studs. This set of jewelry is given by Catherine as a part of the 1 billion jewelry she gave Iris. Xavier intentionally asked Iris to wear this. It was auctioned at a million dollars 20 years ago. But now its value is close to 50 million. Catherine added the price of the jewelry based on the price they bought it for. The elites can easily recognize this set. Because many people tried to poach the Starks to buy this, but Catherin
