“Hah!” Nathaniel gave a shortugh, “Then I was still Nica’s current boyfriend. Can you just get lost?”

Everett heard that, and his face suddenly darkened. He shot a cold look at Nathaniel.

Nathaniel was already raring to go and was nning to have a fight with him.

Iris stepped forward to block Nathaniel and said to Everett, “Mr. Alpinus, can we talk outside?”

Everett nced at Iris. Even though he didn’t want to leave, he still had to give Iris face.

He took another long look at Danica, then finally let go, stood up, and turned to leave.

Irisfortingly patted Nathaniel and went out with Everett.

Everett walked all the way to the end of the hallway.

Probably because he was too irritated, he habitually took out a cigarette to light.

But before he lit it, realizing this was a hospital, he took the cigarette from his mouth, rolled it into his palm, and crushed it hard.

“Mr. Alpinus, you seemed to care a lot about Danica?” Iris walked over, kept a distance of two or three meters from him, and asked in a calm voice.

Everett lifted his eyelids and looked at Iris quietly for a few seconds, then slowly nodded, “I never thought about divorcing her.”

Iris heard that and gave a slight smile, “You never thought about divorcing her, but you kept trampling all over her feelings for you without any restraint.”

“I didn’t,” Everett denied.

“What about Selena Castillo and Ryleigh Linister?” Iris asked with a smile.

Hearing those two names, Everett dropped his head helplessly, “I was just doing my duty to them, that’s all.”

“There were lots of ways to be responsible, but Mr. Alpinus just had to pick the one that made the least sense.”

Iris’s face turned cold and she said bluntly, “Since Mr. Alpinus already had the happiness of two other women on his shoulders, why bother messing with Danica.”

Everett looked up, “I…”

“Since Danica wanted happiness and Mr. Alpinus couldn’t give it to her, then Mr. Alpinus should just stay away from Danica from now on and stop bringing her any more pain or trouble.” After saying that, Iris turned around and left, going back to the hospital room.

Danica was too weak, she couldn’t wake up for a while.

Iris stayed with her for half an hour. When she saw she was stable, she went to Megan’s room to bring Ezekiel and Isabe back.

As a result, as soon as she got to the floor where Megan’s room was, the elevator doors opened, she stepped out and looked up, and ran right into Heriberto, who was holding Isabe and holding Ezekiel’s hand.

And behind them, there were Charlie and Megan, and also Rachel.

Megan sat in a wheelchair, pushed by a nurse.

Because of the surgery, her hair was shaved off, and her whole head was wrapped in ayer of gauze. On that old face, there was a simple, pure, and happy smile that didn’t match her age or temperament at all.

Facing Megan’s eyes, which had never been so clear, Iris couldn’t help but pause for a

moment.

“Mom!”

“Mom, mom!”

Isabe and Ezekiel saw her and both shouted happily. Ezekiel even let go of Heriberto’s hand right away and ran toward her.
