Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 118

Charlie wanted to explain a few things for Heriberto, but Merlin cut him off and even changed the way he addressed him.

From being close with “Charlie” to becoming distant with “Sir Hale“, we can tell that Merlin’s attitude towards Charlie has changed.

“Ira is fine now, she doesn’t need your apologies, let alone want you to disturb her. I hope Sir Hale can control his son well and stop doing anything that upsets Ira, otherwise, I won’t stand by and do nothing”

After giving a stern warning, Merlin was surprisingly blunt and hung up the phone without any hesitation.

On the other end of the phone, Charlie heard the “beep beep” busy tone and started to feel a bit annoyed.

Merlin’s final tone was not just serious, but also harsh.

Although they weren’t very close before, whenever they met, they were always friendly and chatted and laughed together.

Now, because of Iris, Merlin’s attitude towards him has changed drastically, even to the point of threatening to protect Iris no matter what.

Also, from the moment the phone call was answered to when it was finally hung up, Merlin kept calling out “Ira” “Ira” for Iris, showing the intimacy between the two.

Iris lived with the Hale family for ten years, and he never once called Iris “Ira” so intimately.

Merlin shouted so smoothly.

What’s the deal with Merlin and Iris?

“What’s the relationship between this Merlin and Iris? He’s protecting her like that, and keeps calling her ‘Iris‘ non–stop. Could it be that he’s hiding Iris as his mistress?”

Charlie called Merlin on the phone, Megan was also there. Similarly, Charlie put it on speaker, and Megan heard the whole conversation.

She definitely didn’t want to find Iris, and she would never agree to let Iris remarry Heriberto.

But knowing that Iris had big shots like Merlin and Zayden backing her up, she felt a bit uneasy in her heart.

Iris, a girl who was abandoned even by her own parents, somehow caught the eye of a big shot like Merlin.

He even helped hide her, so Heriberto couldn’t find any trace of her for two months.

So, Megan was curious and really wanted to know what the relationship between Iris and Merlin was.

How did Merlin fall for the abandoned woman that the Hale family looked down upon?

The result was, when the phone rang, she felt even worse.

Charlie and she never expected that Merlin would protect Iris like that.

Seriously, was she really abandoned by the Hale family and ended up becoming a treasure in Merlin’s hands?

“What are you talking about!”

Charlie heard what Megan said, and immediately retorted, “Not to mention Merlin, Iris is not that self–loathing.”

“What self–love or not, Iris is now like an orphan, all alone, finding a strong support for herself is what she wants to do most.”

Megan sneered and muttered, “Merlin has been calling the shots for years, everyone fears him, he gets whatever he wants. He even has ten or eight mistresses outside, and no one dares to say anything.”

Charlie got annoyed, gave her a fierce look, said “unbelievable“, and then walked away.

He went to the company, first went to see Heriberto in the president’s office.

He told Heriberto what Merlin had said.

Heriberto didn’t say anything after listening, he fell into a dead silence.

“You can tell that Merlin and Iris’s relationship is special, and he genuinely wants to protect her.”

Charlie said.

“Dad, what’s the relationship between Marie and Merlin?” Heriberto asked after a while.

Charlie shook his head, “I have no idea. Besides Marie’s funeral, I’ve never heard of any interaction between them before.”

“At the funeral,” Heriberto said, “Merlin’s love for Iris was far beyond that of just ordinary friends.”
