บททั้งหมดของ My Wife, the Iron Lady: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

“The Hunt household is not your grandmother’s home. Just look at how unruly you are. When we’re inside, make sure you behave yourself. Don’t make a fool out of yourself and embarrass me.”In front of the Hunt family’s residence, a luxurious black car was parked in front of the gate. Melinda Hunt pressed the doorbell while nagging at Eden Griffith, who was standing next to her and was frowning somewhat impatiently.Eden had a black sling bag over her pure black hoodie. The cap that she was wearing covered half of her face, and her eyes under the cap’s visor were narrowed as she placed her hands in her pockets. She nodded nonchalantly.“You better remember what I told you. If you screw up, you’ll get it from me.” Melinda had been married to the Hunt family for decades and had enjoyed a life of riches. Every move she made was filled with the grace of a proper lady. She glanced at Eden who looked like a thug, and she could feel the anger boiling inside of her again. “The opportunity

The next morning, Mrs. Thompson woke Eden up. As Eden didn’t get a good night’s sleep, her irritation was apparent. She followed Mrs. Thompson downstairs and realized that there was someone else there. It was Jasmine Hunt; her half-sister who shared the same mother but had a different father. She was practicing piano at school last night and didn’t come home until very late at night. They hadn’t seen each other yet. When Jasmine saw her, there was astonishment in her eyes. It was her first time seeing her older half-sister. But since she had heard everything about Eden from Melinda, she thought that her sister was someone very awful. She didn’t expect her to be so beautiful! Eden’s skin was very fair, and her face seemed like it had been carefully molded. Her beauty was otherworldly. Her eyes were half-closed, and there was barely any expression on her face. She looked so cool even as she stood there. Jasmine had mixed feelings then. In the Hunt family, she had always bee

After a few moments, the door leading into the private room was pushed open, and two men walked in.One of them was wearing a silver mask and had a slender figure. He slowly walked in as the hotel lights beamed on him. The eyes hidden beneath the mask were as dark as ink; he exuded the presence of a king.He was covered up tightly, wearing a high-collared shirt under a long coat. They couldn’t even see his neck.The other man was someone tall and lithe, his brown bangs covering the other half of his face. His eyes were beautiful, like light shining through the darkness.“My apologies for the long wait.” The masked man glanced at everyone from the Hunt family before looking at Eden sitting in the chair, who didn’t even glance at him when he came in. He quickly withdrew his attention.When the masked man opened his mouth, everyone from the Hunt family stood up. “We’ve only just arrived, Alain. Please have a seat.” Catherine’s voice was respectful.Even though they had never seen

Without Alain around, everyone from the Hunt family glared at Eden angrily.Especially Melinda, who stomped toward her like a madwoman. “You piece of trash! I brought you and your grandmother here from so far away not to go against me! If I don’t teach you a lesson right now, you’ll never know just how dangerous the real world is!”Melinda raised her hand and wanted to slap Eden, but before she could even swing her hand, Eden grabbed her hand.She raised an eyebrow, coldness in her eyes and her voice. “Take your hand back or I’ll snap it in half.”“Why you...!” Melinda spluttered as she clutched her chest, her face becoming paler. “You must think very highly of yourself! Let’s see how you are going to get your dying grandmother treatment without the Hunt family!”Eden let out an icy scoff. “Whatever!”Did they really think they could use her grandmother against her?If she didn’t come willingly, who could force her to come to Estburg?Four hundred thousand dollars a month... Wa

The following day, when Eden came downstairs, Melinda didn’t even smile at her. Even the maids were giving Eden the cold shoulder and weren’t treating her as well as before.They all heard what happened during the engagement banquet and looked down on Eden even more.However, Edmund’s attitude toward Eden hadn’t changed at all. He was still the same as before.“I’m sorry, Eden. I asked for help from many people, but I still can’t get you in. For now, you can go to Paleoak High. While it’s not as impressive as Riverside Senior High, it’s still a good school,” Edmund said apologetically as they were having breakfast.He didn’t just give up on Eden after what happened last night. He really did the legwork to try and get her into Riverside Senior High.However, despite being the number two family in Estburg, they were simply a family of merchants. There were many things that were beyond their power when influence was vital.He contacted many close friends but still he couldn’t get Ed
