Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 97

She suddenly burst into tears, with snot and tears all over her face. “Heri, how could you treat me like this? I love you so much, I can do anything for you, how could you treat me like this…”

Heriberto squinted at her quietly. From her eyes, he could tell she would never tell him the truth.

If she said it, then it means everything that happened back then was all her plan.

Although Melanie was greedy and foolish, she wasn’t beyond redemption after all.

Thinking back over the years, he hated Melanie for the pain she caused Iris, and he hated himself even more.

He closed his eyes, waved his hand, and solemnly ordered, “Send the two of them back to the north. If they dare to set foot in Ardiham again, break their legs.”

“Yes, Mr. Hale,” Curtis nodded, picked up Melanie, and quickly walked away.

“No no no…”

Melanie struggled and shouted, “I’m not going, I’m not going back, I’m not going back…”

Back to the north, back to her parents at the bottom of society, she might as well go die.

However, Curtis’s strength was really amazing, he could lift her as

easily as a little chicken, no matter how she struggled, it was useless.

“Yesterday, I saved your life, how could you be so heartless to me, you can’t, you can’t…”

Soon, Curtis grabbed Melanie and left the office.

Luke was also taken away.

The office door closed, quickly shutting out Melanie’s cries.

Heriberto leaned back in the chair, saying “I’m sorry” over and over in his mind.

He suddenly remembered.

Three and a half years ago, when he returned to Southdeer Manor where Eleanor lived from the hotel, he noticed Iris walking strangely and with some obvious hickies on the back of her neck.

When she saw him, she just dodged.

Later, on their wedding night, he didn’t see any blood when he was with Iris.

He then asked her if she had slept with other men.

Iris didn’t answer him, she just turned her head away, which was like saying yes.

Later, his coldness and rudeness towards her, and the fact that she did not bleed on their wedding night, were related.

Deep down, Heriberto was actually a traditional man.

So, Iris never slept with any other man. The night he was drugged, most likely the one who slept was Iris.

Because, on their wedding night, he was already very familiar with

Iris’s body

There was an irresistible urge.

So, it was her.

Iris gave it to him on the first try.

At this moment, endless regret and longing were tormenting him, making him feel unbearable pain.

After Iris disappeared for a month, Heriberto got really sick.

He had a high fever for a week straight, did all kinds of tests on his whole body, expert doctors came one after another, but just couldn’t find the reason why he kept having a high fever.

After a week, he was in a coma, mumbling and even talking in his sleep, constantly calling out Iris’s name.

Megan was freaking out.

Charlie was also in a hurry.

They had already lost one son, they couldn’t afford to lose Heriberto.

“What should we do now? Do you really want me to go find Iris?” Megan cried to Charlie.

Over the course of a week, she watched over Heriberto every day, and she looked worn out, as if she had aged more than ten years.

Charlie sighed, “Heriberto sent out so many people, but still no sign of Iris. Do you think just because you want Iris to come back, she will

magically appear?”

“What do you suggest then?” Megan yelled, “What do you think I should do?”

Charlie reluctantly hung his head.

If he had a way, did he really need to yell at Megan in front of her?
