Chapter 147
He knocked, she picked up. Although they didn’t say a word the whole time, looking back now, it was a rare and warm moment for the two of
them.
Heriberto couldn’t help but have a slight smile on his lips.
Suddenly, the phone “buzzed” and “buzzed” in the pocket of the pants.
He snapped out of his thoughts and took a while to find his phone.
It was a strange number, calling from Stroland.
“Hey, Heriberto, is that you?”
‘He picked up the phone, and a voice with a clear tone of flattery and
caution came through the electromagnetic waves.
The voice sounded a bit familiar.
He furrowed his brows in an instant.
“Heriberto, it’s me, your father–in–law Nikolas.“–
Heriberto heard the sound, his narrow eyebrows furrowing tighter, and coldly asked, “What’s up?”
“Heriberto, are you off work? I didn’t disturb you, did I?” Nikolas rambled, with a constant, ingratiating smile.
Heriberto never liked/Nikolas, even now that he realizes he loves Iris, he still doesn’t like Nikolas.
Not only that, but because of Nikolas‘ attitude towards Iris’s daughter,

she grew to dislike him even more.
I didn’t want to say a word of nonsense to Nikolas, so he immediately hung up the phone.
“Heriberto, were you looking for Iris?”
Just as Heriberto was about to hang up the phone, Nikolas‘ voice came through again.
Heriberto’s dark eyes narrowed suddenly, “Do you know where Iris 19!”
“You know, of course I know. Lilian even saw her today. How could I not know?” Nikolas chuckled.
“Lilian saw Iris?!” Heriberto was confused,
“Yeah, yeah, at the Knighton’s villa in Querada, Lilian was Merlin’s daughter’s classmate, went together to the Knighton’s villa, and met Iris at the Knighton’s villa.”
Heriberto held his phone tightly in his right hand, furrowing his brow and concentrating, without saying a word.
“Heriberto, weren’t you looking for Iris? I just told you such a big piece of good news, aren’t you also…”
Nikolas became more cautious when he didn’t hear Heriberto’s voice for a while.
“What do you want?” Finally, Heriberto spoke again.
“Haha, easy peasy,” Nikolas was laughing, “I found a great project on this side of Stroland, but I’m a bit tight on cash. Heriberto, how about you help me invest a bit?”
“The project was really good, so of course there were no problems,

but…”
“What’s up?”
Heriberto wanted to say something but hesitated, and Nikolas eagerly pressed for answers.
Heriberto actually knew that his ideas were not very realistic, but he really wanted Iris, wanted to see her, wanted to talk to her
Even just a glance, a word will do.
“I wanted to video call Iris, if Lilian can help me arrange it, I’ll invest in the project you’re interested in.”

Beachdell.
Lilian racked her brains and finally found out from Rachel that Iris actually lived in a villa a few hundred meters behind the Knighton’s villa.
“Rach, I haven’t seen Iris in years, I really miss her. My parents do too. They treated her badly before, now they regret it so much.”
The next afternoon, Lilian called Rachel to the hotel again and brainwashed and deceived her in various ways.
“Yesterday I told my parents that I saw Iris here, they wanted to fly over immediately to apologize to Iris and bring her back.”
Lilian held Rachel’s hand, with a look of guilt and pity on her face for Iris. “You know, my brother–in–law doesn’t want Iris anymore, he divorced her. Now she’s all alone, it’s really sad! Why don’t you take me to see Iris, I’ll apologize to her and ask her to come home with me, so she won’t be alone anymore.”

Rachel was raised by her parents and older brother since she was a child.
In her mind, how could there be parents who don’t love their own daughter in this world?
She thought, Lilian’s parents must have loved Iris, and Lilian definitely had feelings for her sister.
If Iris could forgive her family and go back to them, it would definitely be better than being alone and lonely outside.
At the same time, she also had some of her own thoughts in mind.
She didn’t really want Iris to stay at her house all the time.
So, she just divided up the love from her parents and brother.
Iris has family too, why take away the love from her family?
“Rach, come on, please, just take me to see Iris, okay? Otherwise, she’s all alone out there, no one to care for her, no one to love her. It’s really sad.” Lilian continued to plead.
“Okay, I’ll take you to meet Ira, but the condition is, you can’t make Ira upset,” Rachel agreed.
“Wow, Rach, you were my angel, you were amazing.”
