Chapter 700



.

Then, a middle-aged man walked in.

Herman was almost fifty this year. He had an elegant look and his hair was half-white, which made him look a bit old. On his face, which was 40% similar to Justin’s, his long, narrow eyes had the wisdom of many years.

Iris looked at him.

It had been over twenty years since she had seen him. He was still wearing the suit she liked best at the time. The years had left traces on his face, which left her momentarily stunned.

Then, a friendly, smiling woman followed him. If one looked closely, one realized that the style of the woman and Iris were somewhat similar. Both were gracious and elegant.

Unfortunately, the same clothes had all kinds of charm on Iris, but on her, they seemed a little too heavy.

Iris’s pupils contracted.

When Herman saw her, he frowned and asked sternly, “Heh, I was wondering who wanted to throw me out. So it’s you…”

His gaze settled on Justin before looking at Iris. “Looks like you two have a good mother-son relationship!”

Justin looked at the two in silence. He didn’t speak or deny this sentence because he didn’t want to say anything that would make Iris lose face.

When Iris heard this, her expression instantly turned cold. She turned to look at Nora and said calmly, “From now on, you have to take good care of the three children. I’m leaving now.”

With that, he prepared to leave.

Gal n o v el s . com is your destination for fiction Nora looked at Cherry. Cherry immediately went to Iris’s side and held her arm. “Grandma, be careful~”

Iris froze as she heard her.

She immediately removed her arm from Cherry’s hand. She lowered her gaze and calmly said, “No need. I can walk by myself.”

Cherry looked at Iris in confusion. Why had her grandmother suddenly changed her attitude when just a moment ago she was still so good to her and her brother?

She must have been angry because she and her brother hadn’t been to see her for too long.

So Cherry looked up and groaned, “Grandma, Pete and I will be visiting you often in the future!”

Iris’ grip on her purse tightened slightly, but she still lowered her head and said slowly, “No.”

She turned around and said coldly, “My flowers are very expensive. You touched them so carelessly the last time you came to visit me. You are very rude…”

Cherry bit her lip.

Ever since she was young, she didn’t mind when others criticized or scolded her. This was the first time someone she cared about said something bad about her!

She opened her eyes sadly and looked at Iris in confusion.

Justin, who was a slave to his daughter, couldn’t stand Cherry’s aggrieved look any longer. He stepped forward and said in a very cold tone, “She’s still young. How come she’s being rude? Six-year-olds are naturally inquisitive. Has she damaged your flowers?”

Iris said, “Orchids are the most precious. They are not for children to play with. Besides, what I hate most are children. They are too noisy…”

Justin scoffed. “So you hated me so much when I was young?”

Iris was stunned.

Justin ignored her and grabbed Cherry. “If you like orchids, I’ll buy you a hundred pots. You can smash them anywhere in the back garden.”

The hostility in his words was very strong.

Nora narrowed her eyes and watched Iris’s face instantly turn as pale as paper. Then, however, she continued coldly, “You’re rich. You can spoil the child any way you want, but don’t bother me!”.

Justin was about to burst out when Herman suddenly said, “Iris, why do you keep being so selfish, she’s your granddaughter! How can you treat her like this, you really are too over the top!”

Iris suddenly looked at Herman with anger in her eyes. Everyone else had the right to criticize her, but what right did he have to criticize her? Didn’t he know why she had gotten that way?

Herman narrowed his eyes and smiled. He walked forward as if he didn’t understand her. Step by step, he arrived in front of Justin and sighed deeply. Like an Old Father, he said, “Justin, it was Dad and Mom who let you down then. For so many years, I’ve always wanted to see you again, but your mother always refused….. My goodness! I came back this time because I heard you were having a birthday party for the triplets. I came especially to give gifts to my grandchildren.”

With that, he looked at the woman behind him. “Lauren, hurry up and bring the presents!”

The lady named Lauren stepped forward and placed the three gifts in her hand on the floor. Then, she pulled one out and handed it to Cherry. “Is your name Cherry? Your name is very pretty. The little one is very pretty too. Come, let your grandmother hug you.”

A hug from a grandmother…

Iris had already reached the door, but when she heard this, she stopped suddenly.

Unconsciously she turned around and saw the four of them together as a family. She felt like an outsider.

Iris felt a pain in her heart.

Nevertheless, she turned around sharply and prepared to leave.

At that moment, a pair of hands held her tightly. She was stunned for a moment. When she raised her head again, she saw Nora.
