Early on the third day. Tony and his father were arrested by the local police. They were charged with not only bribing government officials. but also illegally selling corpses and human organs.
Among the corrupt government officials who took bribes, Sophia’s uncle stood out.
Tony’s family business was caught in a scandal when he and his father were arrested for committing a crime. It was all over the internet, and the business was boycotted, leading to a sudden paralysis in operations overnight.
The key is, when such a big thing happened, Tony’s family didn’t understand who they had offended.
I was so lost that I couldn’t even find a way to ask for directions.
On Wednesday night, Iris went to Aedan’s class as usual.
After class, she received a call from Aedan asking her to wait for him in the parking lot.
Iris said “okay,” and when she got to the parking lot, Aedan was already waiting for her in his black SUV
“Get in the car,”
Aedan leaned against the car smoking, saw Iris approaching quickly threw away the cigarette and stomped it out, then walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for Iris.
Iris nodded and got in the car.

After Aedan closed the car door, he walked around to the driver’s seat.
“Is there a smell of smoke?” he asked as soon as he got on the car.
Iris sniffed and smiled, “Not bad.”
Aedan rolled down the car window halfway and said, “Your suggestion is good, I have seriously considered it, everything you proposed, I agree to all of it.”
Iris was surprised, “So you mean, you want me to join your research team and be my mentor?”
Aedan looked at her.
In the dim light of the parking lot, her eyes were like the night sky on a snowy mountain, filled with countless sparkling stars.
Beautiful!
“Uh–huh.” Aedan nodded, his prominent Adam’s apple bobbing uncontrollably up and down, “Ms. Aguilera, welcome!”
He said, opened his arms, wanting to hug Iris.
Iris was really happy, but instead of rushing over to hug him as she wanted, she reached out and held his big hand.
“Prof. Steele, nice to meet you.” She looked serious, playful, and extremely charming.
Aedan laughed, a hint of sadness flickered in his eyes.
He also gave Iris’s hand a firm squeeze, then quickly let go.
Her hand, just like her, had a grip that made you never want to let go.
“I’ll go talk to Sophia tomorrow,” Iris added.

“No, you don’t need to worry about this, I will go talk to her ”
Acdan didn’t want Iris to be bullied or verbally insulted by Sophia.
Iris thought for a moment, nodded, “Thank Prof Steele for me, I’ll treat you to dinner later.”
“Are you cooking?” Aedan said half–jokingly, half–seriously.
Iris raised her eyebrows, “It’s not impossible.”
Acdan nodded seriously this time, “That’s a deal.”
Iris, “…”
“Is Tony’s family business related to you?” Aedan suddenly changed the subject and asked.
Iris blinked at him, “What do you think?”
Aedan already knew the answer, and he said with a smile, “I’ll take you back.”
“I won’t hold you up.” Iris pointed outside the car window, “I drove here.”
Aedan glanced in the direction she pointed and, of course, saw Laurel.
“Okay, see you tomorrow!” He is now Iris’s mentor, meeting every day is no problem.
“Yeah, see you tomorrow,” Iris nodded and then got out of the car by pushing the door open.
Before closing the car door, she waved to Acc
and said, “Drive
