Chapter 154 

But it wasn’t a complete lie; they were going to set a trap for Ted, after all

Iris raised her glass and said, You all know I can’t handle alcohol well, so I’ll just have one drink. This is to express my gratitude to all of you. I’m sure you’re all aware of what Ted did to me. I couldn’t do anything to him. While your method may not have been entirely ethical, it’s not like you accused him of something he didn’t do.” 

Bottoms up.With that, Iris lifted the glass and finished her drink in one go. The alcohol burned her throat as it went down

She loathed men who disrespect women, especially those like Ted who resorted to force

Recently, there was a case in another country where a young female doctor was raped to death by dozens of men, shocking the world

Women were always the weaker sex

Bottoms up,Lester said, similarly raising his glass

Henry nodded in agreement, but Stanley remained still. He looked at Iris and said, Can I have a word with you?” 

Iris smiled, There are no strangers here. Whatever you want to say, you can say it here.” 

Calmly, she set her glass down and sat back down

Henry suggested, Why don’t we step outside for a moment?” 

Yvonne interjected, Why so secretive? Just say what you want to say.” 

Stanley glared at Yvonne, who met his stare without flinching. Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face? If it weren’t for me, Iris wouldn’t even be here. You should be thanking me. Instead, you’re glaring at me. That’s so rude of you.” 

Stanley averted his gaze, frustration bubbling within him. He had something to say to Iris, but with so many people around, how could he say it? The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he abruptly stood up

Yvonne scowled, thinking, Aren’t you injured? Are you sure you should be getting so angry?‘

Stanley stormed out of the room

Uh, you guys have fun,Lester said, following him outside

Stanley,he called, catching up

Stanley was mad. I just wanted to tell her that a lot of men are not to be trusted. There are many men who are perverts like Ted. I just wanted to warn her to be more careful, doing it out of the kindness of my heart because we used to be husband and wife. And yet, she’s avoiding me. As if I want to talk to her that badly.” 

Lester licked his lips and asked, You don’t?” 

Stanley stopped abruptly, glaring at him. What did you say?!” 

Nothing, nothingLester quickly replied, backpedaling. With a beauty like Fiora by your side, of course the thought of reconciliation has never crossed your mind.Stanley choked. Then, he said stubbornly, I shouldn’t have helped her” 

Lester sighed, thinking to himself, You’re just being stubborn.‘ 

Um, are you really leaving?Lester asked 

Since Stanley had stormed out, it would be embarrassing to go back in. Thus, he said, I’m going home.” 

He had been discharged from the hospital and was currently recuperating at home

He was not working from home; he was on leave and would only return to work after he had healed from his injury

With his injured arm, he couldn’t drive, so Lester drove him home

When Stanley stepped inside his house, an overwhelming sense of emptiness engulfed him. Every corner of the house felt desolate. He hesitated with each step. He wanted to invite Lester in for company, but the words wouldn’t come

He sank into the couch in the empty living room, the silence amplifying his loneliness. Turning on the TV in search of distraction, he found a noisy entertainment show. The TV blared loudly, but it did little to fill the void in his heart. His thoughts drifted back to when Iris was still around. When he was home, she would always cling to him, resting her head on his lap while they watched TV. She liked to wear white camisole pajamas. When he looked down, he would see her slender neck and sexy collarbones. The way her long hair cascaded down was very

alluring, and whenever she moved her bare, slender legs, his lust would be stirred

She could always make him horny very easily

He glanced at the seat beside him

It was empty

She was gone

She had left him
