Moving On from a Cheater のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 211 - チャプター 220

Iris nodded helplessly. "You shouldn't have answered the phone." She felt a headache coming.She wasn't blaming Jason; it's just impossible to explain to her mother now.Since Jason answered her phone this late at night, her mother naturally assumed that Jason had been with her all evening.That was indeed the case today, but it wasn't in the way her parents thought."I can go meet your parents with you," Jason offered.Iris was surprised. Huh?Does he even know what he's saying?"Do you know who my mom thinks you are?" she asked.How could he suggest that without knowing anything?"She thinks I'm your boyfriend, right?" Jason smirked mischievously. "If you don't take me to see them, they'll definitely ask you even more questions. Wouldn't that be troublesome for you?""Besides," he added, "We worked so well together earlier. We're very in sync, right?"Iris was speechless."Actually, all I have to do is explain to them...""What if they set you up on a blind date?" Jaso

Iris refused to succumb to Stanley's threat. If her client ended up with nothing from the divorce and still had to go to prison, it would mean she was incompetent. There was no way she would reconcile with him just for the sake of the case.Stanley fists clenched in frustration as he watched her walk away with resolute steps. When did she become so stubborn? Did she think he was joking?"Iris, you will regret this!" he shouted after her.Hearing him, Iris merely smirked and chuckled self-deprecatingly. The biggest regret of her life had been marrying him. Given the chance to start over, she would never do that, or even date him. In fact, she wished she had never met him at all.But there was no remedy for regrets in this world. If there were, she would take it without hesitation.The ball-less man asked cautiously. "Mr. Stein, are you really going to be my lawyer for free? You're not lying to me, are you?"His eyes still staring at Iris' back, Stanley replied, "I will be your

Brad casually replied, "Sure."Iris was taken aback by his quick and decisive response."Thanks, Brad. You're a great help. How can I ever thank you?" She felt immensely grateful for his willingness to help.Brad turned out to be very easily satisfied. "I want more of that chestnut cake," he said.He had never tasted such delicious pastries before. He actually did not like pastries very much, perhaps because they were generally sweeter and more suited to a girl's palate. Boys tended to prefer foods that were less sweet."That's it?" Iris asked. Wasn't the request too simple?Brad blinked, considering her question. "Then, how about you accompany me to a social gathering?"Iris was puzzled.He was only going through the motions at the law firm. What kind of social gathering would he have?"We have a club, and there's a race tomorrow night. I need to attend with a female companion, but I can't think of anyone to take. So, would you be my plus-one?" Brad grinned.Iris thought for

The person who came to see her was Professor Aston, which took Iris completely by surprise."Can I help you, Professor Aston?" she asked.Jason's expression was gloomy. There must be a reason Professor Aston had suddenly come to see Iris, and Jason did not think it was something good."There is indeed something I'd like your help with," Professor Aston said cheerfully. "Can we go somewhere to talk?"Iris suggested, "How about the coffee shop downstairs?"After a moment of hesitation, Professor Aston replied, "That works."Iris turned to Jason. "Mr. Just, I'll see you later.""Sure, give me a call if you need anything," Jason responded.Iris nodded. Then, she turned to Professor Aston and said, "Let's go."Once at the coffee shop, Iris politely asked, "What would you like to order?"Professor Aston hadn't even taken a seat before he waved his hand. "I'm actually here on someone's request. I truly feel that your divorce is too regretful. Stanley wants to remarry you, so give

This would be the second time Iris and Stanley faced each other in court. The first time, she had occupied the defendant's seat while he sat opposite her as the plaintiff's lawyer. This time, she was there as her client's defense lawyer.She was dressed in a dark blue jacket with a lapel collar and a matching top. The jacket's waist-cinching design showed off her slim figure. She complimented that with straight trousers and black high heels. Her clean-cut short hair framed her face, enhancing her serious and sharp aura. She stood with her back straight, feeling like she was six feet tall.Since she entered the courtroom, she hadn't once looked directly at Stanley, who, on the other hand, could not stop looking at her.Even now, he still thought that Iris was overestimating her own abilities. He had had years of practice as a lawyer, during which he had handled hundreds of cases. Moreover, the odds were heavily stacked against Iris' client in this case.How could Iris win?"Order in t
