It was as if Ian wanted to release a bomb, because I still don't understand why he exhaled so deeply that I could see his chest rising and falling. Maybe I was right in the first place. He must have had a child with her, so what am I still doing here? "Alright, I called. We are here together because of the whole situation at hand now, and I want to clear the hot atmosphere." What are all these long sermons for? Ian should go straight to the point. My patience is running out. Ian quickly turned to Claire and said, "You came here on purpose, and definitely it was because of my wealth. The child is not mine." "Huh? How can you say that? Why would you deny your own seed, Ian?" "There is no need to banter words with you. I have no energy for that. Yesterday, you broke the news of having a child for me, and I was quiet because I had to do my resear

Ian I rushed out of the house with my car. I drove myself to the hospital, where I was asked to come and see her. When I got there, I forgot to turn off the car's engine. I just closed the door and rushed inside. I couldn't find any traces of her, and so I moved to meet those medical records officers at the front desk. "Hello, I was told that a young lady was moved into this hospital." "A young lady? What's her name?" "Iris McCarthy" They searched in their file, but it was taking too long, which got me so uncomfortable. "What is going on? She was just brought in here a few minutes ago, not even up to an hour." The record officer who was attending to me shook her head negatively. "Sorry, sir, but there is no such name here. The last person that was brought inside here was a man."

Iris In my whole life, I haven't seen a man who is well known, yet he doesn't publicize it. What? So, Ian wants to tell me that the policemen who were having breakfast with us know him too well. Look at how relaxed they feel, eating like they haven't eaten since last week. Ian is so down to earth to have allowed these men to eat at the same table with him. Gosh! I am impressed and amazed. Isak can't try this. If I can be scared of Isak, my husband, then who are the outsiders not to be trembling before him? His intimidating looks alone can send one to the grave immediately, without a touch. That was how bad it was. I saw the joy and excitement on their faces. They would be lucky that Claire came to invite them over, but funny enough, the game turned around for them. They would wish tha

Isak "Did you say that she visited your office?" "Yes, some minutes ago." I paced around my office with my left hand tucked inside my pocket and the other holding the phone closer to my ear. "Did she tell you where she stays?" "Not at all. I tried to get the information from her, but she was too secretive." "Hmm, I need to find her," I said. A few minutes ago, she left the chamber. Who knows if I will be able to see her? I picked up my phone to call my driver, but there was no need because I couldn't tell if he was going to see her. Shit! I am not finding this funny at all. Her parents hadn't said anything to me either. Maybe they are aware of her whereabouts. That evening, immediately after I finished work, I told my driver to take me to Iris' family house. I nee

Iris“What in the hell happened here? Tracy mouthed it in shock as he tried to walk over the mess. Broken glass and all! My eyes were already teary as I stared at the mess!“Brian! I muttered with a broken heart! Because of me, my friends' lives are in danger.Tracy came over to hug me. Brian is fine. It's just that he’s in shock.” She kissed me on the cheek before disengaging to walk to what was supposed to be Brian's perfect artifact."See, everything is fine! We just need to inform the police, and the culprit will be found! Brian finally spoke in a high-pitched voice, which only indicated how stressed this was for him.“Brian I’m so sorry; I didn’t mean to endanger your life.” But I got a hug instead.“Iris, you’re stressed about this; this might just be a random break-in! Our focus returned to the ruin in the house. Thankfully, Brian didn’t spend the night at his place and had gotten back to see his house in a mess.The windows were all broken! The furniture was all trashed, and e
