Semua Bab My Wife, the Iron Lady: Bab 321 - Bab 330

When Horace faced the kidnapper, he was unable to defend himself before being knocked out.Recalling the man, Horace couldn’t hide his terror. “Alain, he’s not just a man. He’s a monster.”Alain’s expression grew serious. It was rare for anyone to scare Horace this much.“You won’t believe it, but that man… No, that monster… He doesn’t have a face,” Horace said, shaking his head. “Or rather, he has a face but no skin.”The more Horace tried to explain, the more confused he became. “Let me put it this way. His face was all bloodied, and his skin seemed to be rotting. It looked like it had been burned, but not exactly burned. Anyway, I can’t really describe what he looks like.”Eden narrowed her eyes as she listened to Horace’s description. “What did he do to you?”“Caelus saved me before he could do anything,” Horace replied, his eyes filled with fear. “He… He drank human blood right in front of me…”Eden stroked her chin thoughtfully, considering his words carefully.After a mo

Daphne took the knife and grinned. “What a great idea.”She then grabbed Jasmine by the chin and said coldly, “I’m going to make sure you appear with ‘whore’ written on your face during the national stream. You’ll look fantastic with it.”“You can’t do that. I’m from the Hunt family. My dad and my grandma won’t let you get away with this,” Jasmine cried out desperately, her heart racing.“The Hunt family? Compared to mine, your family is nothing. You’re not even worthy of being my family’s household staff,” Daphne said, a cruel glint in her eyes. She raised her hand, ready to start carving on Jasmine’s face.Jasmine was held in place by Daphne’s underlings and had no choice but to close her eyes and brace for the worst.However, she felt no pain at all. She opened her eyes, stunned by what she saw.It was Eden.Eden was holding Daphne’s wrist with a stern expression. “Who do you think you are, trying to hurt my younger sister?”Eden was known for many traits, but one that stood

The Physics Research Institute wasn’t too far from Rielton’s city center. Although it was already evening, thanks to the Taylor family’s influence, getting into the institute wasn’t difficult.The head butler of the Taylor family arrived with his squad of bodyguards.When Daphne saw him, she quickly pointed at Eden and said, “That’s her, Mr. Taylor! Capture her!”Mr. Taylor looked at Eden; she looked familiar, but he couldn’t quite place her.Since he couldn’t remember where he had seen Eden before, he asked, “Are you the one who’s been causing trouble for Ms. Daphne?”Eden ignored him and said to Ewan, “If you’re tired, take a break. There’s going to be round two.”Ewan immediately stopped, obeying Eden’s command.“Anyone who bullies Ms. Daphne will have to pay the price, no matter who they are,” Mr. Taylor said, his irritation growing as Eden continued to ignore him. “You can choose to either lose an arm or a leg.”Daphne added, “Or you could have your face scarred.”“What i

Alain stayed silent for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. “My personal villa, the Pear Garden.”As soon as he said that, Eden pushed him into the car. “Drive.”He reached for a thermos flask and took a sip of warm water from it. Eden turned to him and asked, “You’re done with everything?”Alain had bought the thermos flask just for Eden, keeping it in the car so that there would always be hot water when she needed it.“No,” Alain held her hand gently. “This time, it’s pretty complicated. It won’t be over so quickly.”After a brief pause, he added, “I probably won’t be able to spend time with you in the morning, but I’ll try in the evening. I’ll be in Rielton for about ten days.”“You’re leaving?” Eden asked, lowering her eyes as she put the cover back on the thermos flask.She realized she had not seen Alain this busy ever since they met.“Yes, I need to go to the Median Continent. There's something I need to take care of, but…” Alain massaged her head, sighing. “Yo

“Ms. Griffith, Mr. and Mrs. Ward are already on their way, but they refuse to let Alain go,” Caelus said, waiting at the entrance of the research institute.He knew Eden wouldn’t leave Alain to his fate.Wasting no time, Caelus opened the car door for Eden and added, “Sulien is treating the boss right now, but it’s not going well. You need to take a look.”Eden lowered her head in silence, her mood heavy.Caelus, knowing her temperament, didn’t say much. He drove in quiet understanding.After half an hour, the car pulled up in front of a grand villa—the Johnson family residence.Caelus led Eden into a living room, where they were met with the sound of shouting. “Geoffrey, your son raped my daughter! Not only do you refuse to admit it, you’re trying to pin the blame on me? Let me warn you, if you don’t give us a proper explanation, the Johnson family will do everything in its power to destroy you.“And so what if the Ward family is the most powerful of the four prominent families
