Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 31

Chapter31

Lumora Group is not yet a match for the Hale Group. If Nathaniel angers Heriberto and he decides to come down hard on Lumora Group or Nathaniel, it will be a lose–lose situation for her.

Nathaniel guessed her concerns, paused for a moment, and nodded.

After Nathaniel left, Iris didn’t immediately call Heriberto.

After living together for a long time, she still knew Heriberto’s habits pretty well.

Heriberto usually didn’t come out of the study until after 10 o’clock at night, then he would take a shower and rest.

She took a shower, got into bed, and read a book for almost half an hour. After a while, she finally picked up her phone, found Heriberto’s number, and called him.

On the other end of the phone at Acme Villa, Heriberto, who had never spent the night in the master bedroom on the third floor, was now lying on Iris’s bed in a shirt and trousers, with half of his face buried in Iris’s pillow, eyes closed and unmoving.

He fell asleep.

Ever since Iris moved out, he suddenly developed insomnia, and it’s pretty bad. Sometimes he can’t sleep all night long.

It’s been about ten days, and he finally couldn…old on anymore.

Today when I got home, out of the blue, he walked into Iris’s bedroom and saw the bed where she was sleeping. In his mind, he couldn’t help

but picture the countless times when the two of them were entangled in this bed.

He walked over and collapsed onto the bed, his body out of control.

Smelling the faint scent that belonged only to Iris lingering in the pillow and bedding, he actually fell asleep in just a few seconds.

He slept like a log.

Since Iris moved out, he has never slept so well.

I don’t know how long I slept, but my phone started “buzzing” in my pocket.

His vigilance has always been very high. Even if he was asleep, if his phone rang, he would definitely wake up.

But today, the phone kept vibrating and vibrating, but he just lay there like he was dead, no response at all.

He didn’t wake up or react at all until the phone hung up by itself.

In the apartment on the 38th floor of Bluehaven Estates, Iris heard the “beep” of the phone hanging up automatically, lost in thought for a

moment.

Was Heriberto ignoring her calls on purpose?

But it made sense.

So if someone hates her why would they want to answer her phone call?

She didn’t make any more calls, turned off the internet on her phone, set it to silent, placed it on the bedside table, and then turned off the light to go to sleep

In Acme Villa, Heriberto actually stayed in one position and slept until dawn.

In the early morning, the golden sunlight shone through the wide window and fell on Heriberto’s chiseled face like an axe, creating a sharp contrast.

His thick eyelashes fluttered, and he opened his eyes to wake up.

Although one arm felt a bit numb from being pressed, the whole person felt refreshed, just like the rising sun outside the window at this

moment.

Heriberto’s eyes darted around, couldn’t believe he had actually spent the whole night sleeping on Iris’s bed.

I slept from before 10 o’clock last night until now.

No dreams last night, slept soundly all night.

Watching the sunrise slowly rising in the distance outside the French window, Heriberto widened his eyes, with a clear confusion in his

eyes.

Why didn’t he ever spend the night with Iris before?

I guess her body was just too tempting.

Sleeping in the same bed with her, he might not have been able to control himself from wanting her.

He was worried he would die on Iris.

Besides, how could he allow himself to sink i
