She said, this time I did it all by myself.
Actually, half of what she said is true, and the other half is false.
She was afraid that her new movie would flop, and then Iris and Nathaniel’s money would go down the drain, affecting their pure friendship.
After all, the market is unpredictable, she didn’t have that much confidence to guarantee that her new movie would definitely make
money.
“Baby, why don’t you come stay with me instead? It’s better than putting up with the Hale’s mansion.” Danica said.
“No way, Megan is now pampering the baby in my belly, not only feeding me delicious food and drinks, but also not letting me do anything,” Iris said.
“What about Heriberto, didn’t he deny that the child in your belly is his?” Danica still worried.
“He doesn’t matter, I won’t let him affect me anymore.”
As soon as Iris finished speaking, she felt two icy stares behind her, sharp as if they were going to poke two holes in her.
She looked back.
I don’t know when, but Heriberto was actually standing next to her, just two or three meters away.

Under the warm yellow streetlights, he stood tall and straight, exuding a chilly air. The warm light poured down from above his head, but couldn’t dispel the coldness surrounding him.
“Nica, I have something to do, I’ll call you later,” Iris said to her phone before hanging up.
“How come, thinking you have something up your sleeve, you feel invincible?” Heriberto spoke, as hurtful as ever.
Iris quietly watched him, not saying anything.
“Iris, the baby in your belly better be mine, otherwise, I won’t let you and that adulterer off the hook,” Heriberto said coldly.
With that, he turned around and walked away quickly.
Iris watched as the tall figure slowly disappeared into the lights, and she was a bit stunned for a moment.
What did Heriberto mean?
How come he suddenly changed his mind and thought that the baby she was carrying might be his?
And they even allowed her to give birth?
He allowed her to have the baby, did he really want to abandon the child and let her child call Melanie mom?
No, no, no, you can’t!
Her child, no one can take away.
So, she had to figure out a way to divorce Heriberto as soon as possible, get away from him, and make sure he never had the idea of giving her child to Melanie again.

After coming back from the garden, Heriberto was in the study with Charlie and Megan.
When Iris passed by, she heard the sound coming from the study, and accidentally overheard Heriberto talking about his plan to acquire Lumora Group.
Heriberto actually wanted to acquire Lumora Group?!
“Did you want to acquire Lumora Group because of Iris and Nathaniel?” Megan asked.
“Of course not.”
Heriberto definitely said, “Lumora Group focuses on high–end women’s products. The development in recent years has been strong, with good reputation and huge market potential. Acquiring Lumora Group would be beneficial for the Hale Group.”
Heriberto was so sure about Lumora Group.
Iris unconsciously smirked, didn’t bother to listen further, and continued walking up to the third floor.
Her room was on the third floor with Heriberto.
I don’t know if Heriberto will stay tonight.
If he stayed, he probably wouldn’t share a room with her.
After they got married, they only stayed at the Hale’s mansion a few times, like spending a night there on New Year’s Eve.
