Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58

“Fine, fine.” Megan was quite angry, nodding and saying, “Tomorrow, tomorrow we’ll do a paternity test.”

***

Megan and Charlie left, all the servants left too, the whole annex was empty, only Iris left.

She calmed herself down and dialed Merlin’s phone number.

Plans didn’t keep up with changes, now she can only play it by ear.

Originally she wanted Nathaniel to continue helping her, but now she told Heriberto that the child is not his.

In recent years, the only male friend she had contact with was Nathaniel.

Heriberto had a feeling that she and Nathaniel were involved.

Then they would probably think, the child is Nathaniel’s.

Maybe Heriberto has someone watching Nathaniel now. Whatever Nathaniel does, he’ll know all about it.

So she couldn’t let Nathaniel help her with the paternity test anymore, finding Merlin would be more suitable.

Merlin’s resources, connections, and overall strength were naturally stronger than Nathaniel’s.

Neither the Hale family nor Heriberto could have imagined in a short period of time that they wouldn’t be able to find Merlin anywhere.

As for “confirming” that the baby in her belly was Nathaniel’s, Iris wasn’t worried anymore about whether the Hale family and Heriberto would pressure or aggressively acquire Lumora Group.

At worst, she made Merlin and his son fight Heriberto to the end. In terms of money, the entire Hale Group combined couldn’t compare to her.

Besides, Heriberto wouldn’t be such an irrational person, he would never ruin the whole Hale Group because of her.

The next morning, Iris didn’t even have breakfast after getting up. The two servants of the Hale family appeared in front of her, asking her to go to the hospital for a paternity test.

Megan went with her, but they didn’t ride in the same car.

To make the paternity test results more accurate, they directly drew amniotic fluid from Iris’s belly.

When the needle longer than fingers pierced into Iris’s belly, she didn’t feel any pain at all, with a calm and indifferent expression on her face.

After returning from the hospital to the Hale’s mansion, she was restricted in her movements and Megan confiscated her phone, not allowing her to contact anyone outside.

She had already expected that Megan would do this, so she told Merlin about it last night.

Merlin arranged for someone to make sure she and the child were safe at the Hale’s mansion.

Locked up and cut

and cut off from the outside world, Iris did nothing but eat, drink, sleep, read, study, and improve herself.

The result of the appraisal came out in the afternoon of the next day.

In the evening, Megan threw the tampered appraisal report in her face, then without hesitation, she slapped her hard.

This time, Charlie stood behind her, not stopping her anymore.

“Iris, you’re such a slut!”

Megan yelled angrily, “Eleanor was so good to you, no one else wanted you but she forced Heriberto to marry you, you really deserve to be torn apart.”

“Okay,” Heriberto said, “don’t touch her. Let’s wait for him to come back and deal with it. Just calm down.” Charlie said with a furrowed brow, looking at Iris with a hint of disgust in her eyes.

Heriberto also found out the results of the paternity test, did he really know that she was carrying a “love child“?

Pretty good!

Iris’s face got slapped, a clear handprint appeared on her fair cheek, swollen and red.

She raised her eyelids and didn’t say a word.

Megan and Charlie left, and not long after, the butler showed up again.

Heriberto called, asking for Iris to pick up the phone.

Iris answered.

“Iris, I just want to hear you say it again. Is the child really not mine?”

In his phone, Heriberto’s voice was surprisingly calm.

Iris listened to his words and smiled.

He never believed her, never.
