Iris also joked with him, “As long as you give me a higher grade on the final evaluation, I will always welcome you.”

“That’s easy,” Acdan looked at her, his expression becoming even gentler.

“Yeah, Prof. Steele, Ira will rely on you for more help in the Medical School from now on.” Valeria said with a smile.

“Madam Knighton was really strict, Iris was excellent in many ways, I still need to learn from her,” Aedan sincerely said.

Iris heard that, she smiled and raised her eyebrows.

“Yeah, I’ve always thought that too, Ira is the best.” Valeria chuckled. then turned to Zayden and said, “Zayden, can you help me get some more food for Ira? Haven’t seen her in three months, she’s lost weight.”

“Okay.” Zayden nodded, didn’t say much, but kept passing food to Iris.

He took care of Iris, but Iris was always taking care of Aedan.

Aedan came to dinner at our house for the first time, and he was the only “outsider.” Iris took special care of him because she was afraid he might feel left out.

Her actions, Merlin and Valeria both saw it.

Originally, Valeria wanted Iris to be her daughter–in–law, but now it seems like the chance is slim.

everyone over tea when his phone rang.

The hospital had an emergency, the situation was quite dangerous and complicated, so they asked him to go and take a look.

He didn’t delay, after hanging up the phone, he said goodbye and left.

Iris and Zayden saw him off together.

After Aedan got on the car and left, Iris turned around to go back, but was stopped by Zayden.

“What’s up?” Iris turned to look at him.

Zayden pouted at her, “Wanna take a walk together?”

Iris stared at him for two seconds, then nodded, turned around, and walked back. The two of them strolled in the garden under the night sky.

She knew, Zayden had something to tell him.

“Ira, I’m sorry, but you’ve been getting too close to Aedan lately, so I did some digging into his background,” Zayden said as they walked a little further.

Iris wasn’t surprised at all by his words, she smiled and asked, “What did you find out?”

“Others are fine, but his father, you wouldn’t expect.” Zayden said.

Iris was curious, “Who was his father?”

“His father was the right–hand man in the country.”

Iris easily guessed who it was.

“How is his mother now?” she asked.

“His mother is doing well now, living in Goltuna, never got married, and her whole life revolves around Aedan,” Zayden said.

Iris nodded, “Zayden, thanks for looking into this for me, I know you’re just trying to help.”

Zayden frowned and fell silent for a moment, just walking slowly beside Iris.

“Is there anything else you want to tell me?” Iris asked, sensing something was off.

Zayden nodded, stopped and looked at her, “Ira, I know Aedan looks a lot like Julian, you’re not gonna start liking him just because he looks like Julian, right?”

Iris heard this and couldn’t help but pause, “Why do you think that?”

Zayden thought for a moment, “You cared about him a bit too much.”

Iris listened and suddenly laughed, she immediately understood why Zayden thought he liked Aedan.

“Zayden, I consider you, Merlin, Valeria, and Rach as family, and Aedan as a guest. How do you think I should treat family and a first- time guest coming to our house?” she asked.
