He opened his eyes and looked at the woman he’d been longing for, right in front of him. He gave a bitter smile, “Ira, I didn’t, the only one I’ve ever loved is you. Mnie was just a tool I used to get back at you.”

“Get back at me?” Iris thought it was funny. “What makes you think you can get back at me?”

“Because I always thought before that the one you loved was Julian, and if Julian hadn’t died, you wouldn’t have married me.”

Heriberto was talking, and a hint of red slowly spread at the corner of his eye.

Iris smiled and gave a cold order, “Let go of me.”

Heriberto closed his eyes again, then held her and stood up, letting her olligo. /li/ol

Iris immediately took two steps back and put some distance between them.

She went to take a look at Ezekiel and Isabe.

The two little ones slept soundly, didn’t wake up.

“Heriberto, I epted you and the Hale family meeting Zeke and Be, but that didn’t mean I would ept you again.”

“Ira, sorry…”

“Don’t say sorry to me anymore, because I didn’t need it anymore.”

At that moment, Iris was very rational. She smiled at Heriberto and said, “Heriberto, the reason you can’t forget me is just because ever since you brought up divorce, everything has been out of your control and up to me.”

“If I were still the old Iris, always doing what you said, letting you walk all over me, even after our divorce turning into a bitter, nagging woman, then tell me, would you still be hung up on me?”

Looking at her, Heriberto opened his mouth but didn’t know how to exin.

“You wouldn’t.”

Iris answered for him, “If I turned into a nagging old woman, you would just avoid me, and in your heart, there wouldn’t be any so–called love left, only disgust.”

“So, please don’t tell me again that I’m the only one you loved, because what you loved was just the shiny, morous me right now.”

“Didn’t Aedan love the morous you now?”

Heriberto asked, “Back then, why did you hide everything from me?”

She gave a coldugh and said, “Or maybe, am I the truth behind Merlin and Zayden?”

Heriberto looked at her, his long narrow brows tightly furrowed.

The line between light and dark had already decided who won and who lost.

“Heriberto, I told you, I said all of this, I really did, it’s just that you never chose to believe me.”

Iris said again, with a deep sense of helplessness and a hint of coldness.
