“I told you, women were the softest–hearted creatures in the world, and Iris was a woman, she was no exception.”

“As long as you woke up next to her and kept pestering her for a few years, I didn’t believe he wouldn’t be moved by you and come back to you.”

“What did it mean if you died like this?”

“With all those assets in the Hale family, who did you want to just hand them over to?”

“Oh, I heard that there was a guy around Iris who looked a lot like Julian, and your parents even wanted to make him their godson.”

“Fine, fine, I got it, just go die!”

“This way your parents could take that man who looked a lot like Julian as their godson, and then this godson would inherit the Hale family, marry Iris, and the two of them would be all lovey–dovey enjoying everything that was supposed to be yours.”

“Totally perfect! Don’t you think so?”

He said a bunch of stuff, super pissed off, but Heriberto didn’t react at all.

He was so mad he got confused, let out a cold laugh, and said, “Fine, that’s it then, just hurry up and die, I’m leaving!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he strode around the foot of the bed and left.

As a result, as soon as he pulled the door open, Iris actually showed up right in front of him.

He thought he saw it wrong, and blinked hard.

“Damn, Iris, it really was you!” he said excitedly.

Iris looked at him with no expression and said calmly, “The man you just mentioned who looks a lot like Julian is called Aedan.”

Everett’s mouth twitched when he heard her go on, “Your suggestion just now was pretty good. If Heriberto died, I’d have Prof. Steele agree to Sir Hale and Madam Hale’s proposal, become their godson, and then inherit the Hale family.”

Everett gritted his back teeth and let out a soft “hiss,” squinting as he said, “Iris, you really were… the most vicious woman ever!”

“Heriberto, did you hear that?” He turned back and shouted at Heriberto on the hospital bed.

Iris ignored him, walked past him, and went straight into the hospital

room.

She had already changed into the sterile gown.

It also got Charlie and Megan distracted.

She walked into the ICU, looked at Heriberto lying in bed, really almost like a dead person, took a deep breath, closed her eyes for a moment, then walked over to the bedside.

Everett tactfully stepped out and closed the door.

But didn’t leave, just waited outside, watching what was going on inside through the observation window.

Iris turned her back to him and walked to the bedside. Looking at the motionless Heriberto, she slowly bent down and leaned close to his

ear.

Right when she leaned in and her warm breath brushed against Heriberto’s cold cheek, his thick eyelashes fluttered a little.

But Iris didn’t notice.

She was right up against his ear, just inches away.

Under the bright lights of the ICU, she could even see the fine fuzz on his cheeks.

“Heriberto.”

She called his name softly, “You know what, you had a son named Ezekiel Aguilera and a daughter named Isabella Aguilera. If you died, then I could only let Zeke and Bella call some other man dad.”
