Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 221

Chapter221

With a “bang,” Iris’s mind went blank, her heart racing uncontrollably, “thump, thump” speeding up.

She was completely stunned for a moment.

Aedan sucked on her lips, then closed his eyes and gently tasted her lips with his tongue.

That taste, so amazing, far exceeded his expectations.

When he was getting out of control and wanting to go further, Iris suddenly leaned back and ended the kiss.

The desired outcome didn’t happen. Aedan opened his eyelids and looked at Iris who was close by. He had the same gentle and calm expression as before, and said, “Sorry, Iris, I couldn’t resist.”

Iris looked at him, and on her fair cheeks, at some point, a noticeable blush had appeared.

But she didn’t avoid it, she looked straight at Iris without blinking, trying to keep her mind clear, and smiled as she asked, “Prof. Steele, what does this kiss of yours represent?”

Aedan stared at her fixedly, his gaze couldn’t be restrained, ckly becoming burning hot.

He lifted his chin, his long fingers gleaming with a cold white light, gently lifting Iris’s chin. His tone was calm and increasingly hoarse, dark, “Iris, this kiss, I’ve fantasized about it many times.”

Iris kept staring at him without blinking, feeling his hot breath.

“I liked you from the first time you crashed into my arms,” Aedan said

After getting the answer she expected, Iris finally turned her head away, avoiding Aedan’s intense and burning gaze, trying to calm her heartbeat.

Aedan wasn’t in a hurry, just watching her quietly, waiting for her

response.

“Prof. Steele, I think I should tell you, you look a lot like my deceased brother,” Iris finally said.

“Brother?!” Aedan raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Yeah,” Iris nodded, “My ex–husband’s older brother, he treated me like his own sister.”

“So, you didn’t reject my kiss just now, because…”

“I’m not sure what I feel about you right now,” Iris interrupted Aedan, “Prof. Steele, I think we might need more time together.‘

Aedan got it, a twinkle of smile appeared in his eyes, “So, you don’t reject me, you’re just not sure, what kind of liking you have for me, right?”

Iris nodded, “Yes, Prof. Steele.”

Aedan looked at her, thumb gently rubbing her chin, and said..ith a smile, “You can call me something else now, Iris.‘

Iris raised an eyebrow, “I still think Prof. Steele sounds better.”

Turning her head towards the paper on the tablet in front of her, she smiled at Aedan and asked, “Prof. Steele, what were you just about to say?”

Aedan gave a helpless smile and then refocused on his paper.

The incident of Powell Pharmaceuticals‘ new drug clinical trial causing deaths quickly became a hot topic among the domestic public, making a big splash online and topping the trending topic list.

The relevant departments quickly got involved in the investigation, and the clinical trials of the new drug were temporarily forced to stop.

Iris watched as the situation quickly escalated and blew up, but she wasn’t worried at all.

She was waiting for Zayden’s message.

As long as Zayden hasn’t given her a conclusion, she’s not in a rush.

Luckily, Zayden was efficient enough. In just a day and a half, he found out the truth of the matter.

The one who had the accident was a nearly seventy–year–old woman. It was the old woman’s son and daughter–in–law who signed to agree to the old woman participating in the clinical trial.

And this family, it was Marlon who had someone find them.

The old man had a grandson in his twenties, who was sentenced to sixteen years in prison for gang rape.

When Marlon found this family, he promised the son and daughter–in- law that as long as they made sure the elderly in their family took the medicine he provided three times a day, he would take care of everything.
