NovelEnglishChapter 192 Some Pointers from Iris When she saw the caller id, coldness immediately seeped into her eyes. Nevertheless, in the next moment, she had already picked up the phone.
“Hello, Uncle Norman.” She greeted him simply without much emotion in her voice.
In the past, when she addressed him, she felt especially close to him, as though he was her father.

I've never seen him in this light before.
He immediately said with a smile, “Liz, are you still working now? Am | interrupting anything?” As usual, Norman put on a warm facade as though they were still in the past.
Perhaps it was precisely because of that she felt closer to him. Whenever she thought about this, she felt as though someone had stabbed her in her heart. He had been plotting against Dad and me ever since he moved in with us. For the past ten years, they have been biding their time, and now they have finally succeeded.
Elisa took a breath, trying to control the hatred in her voice before saying, “What's the reason for the call at this hour?” “Oh... | just felt that you haven't returned for a while now. Your aunt will cook something tonight, and she will make your favorite dishes. Why don’t you come back today for a meal together?” In the past, she would be touched when she heard that. However, hearing the words come out of his mouth now, she could only think of them as hypocrites.
They are so fake that | can’t help but hate them.
Elisa did not want to drag out the conversation, and she needed to go back to handle some errands, so she replied directly, “Sure. I'll be back tonight, but there's no need to trouble Aunt Rose. It's just a small reunion; you don’t have to go such lengths.” Reunion. She emphasized this word.
Norman immediately laughed out loud. “Oh, don't worry about that! Your aunt is droning on and on about making your favorite dishes! You go ahead and finish up your work first. I'll wait for you at home.” “Sure.” Since she did not have anything else to tell him, they hung up the call. After that, she tried to calm herself down, but she felt irritable.

She took another breath to keep her emotions in check before quickly immersing herself in work. This was the only way to lift her mind from those thoughts.
Meanwhile, Albert walked outside of the office with no trace of frowns on his face anymore. Seeing the smile on his face, Jennifer knew that his problem was solved.
The six of them had been discussing among themselves, but they could not find a solution.
It took such a short time before he came out looking so happy? Unable to help herself, she asked, “Are you smiling because you get to admire a beautiful woman at work just now? Is the case really resolved?” He smiled at her. “Of course, there’s nothing Iris cannot fix. She only reminded me of two points.” Previous Chapter Next Chapter mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
