Hannah Lennox has had the longest interactions with Jonas Kingsley, and understands his temper best. Iris Crawford’s pregnancy was an accident, an accident that could even push the developnt of things to another extre...
This matter must never be known to Jonas Kingsley.
Thoughts raced through her mind over and over, until Hannah could only choose a thod Jonas wouldn’t suspect, saying, "It’s the change of seasons. Iris may be feeling a bit unwell, but she’s still escorted to and from work by Lachlan Wyatt, and Number Nine is present every evening when she returns ho..."
"You’re saying that even though Iris is currently alone with you in the house, there are still many people watching over her, right?"
Jonas’s gaze flickered, "I’m coming to see Iris soon. I hope you can get done what I want done."
The more he felt this way, the more he wanted to appear quickly by Iris’s side.
"What do you want to do..."
"What do you think?"
Jonas sneered at the phone, as if he could tear Iris to pieces in the next second, "That woman is like my nesis. My obsession with her is almost surpassing Lachlan Wyatt."
"Is there a possibility that you’ve fallen for her?"
Hannah swallowed, voicing the idea in her heart, "Third Young Master, you’ve never faced your own feelings directly. Perhaps your feelings for Iris are not the sa as your feelings for the Second Young Master. You have hostility towards Lachlan, but towards Iris... maybe not."
Hannah still thought that if Jonas realized he had fallen for Iris, maybe he could turn back before it’s too late and avoid the damage, and Iris wouldn’t get hurt.
But she didn’t expect that hearing her say the word love would make Jonas furious, as if Jonas’s world shook violently in that instant.
In the next second, a storm descended as expected, "Who gave you the courage to speculate on my feelings?"
Jonas’s voice was icy, "Hannah, spending a few days with Iris, do you intend to probe through this? I love Iris? Do you think hearing such words will shake ?"
"I wouldn’t dare."
Any thoughts Hannah had were instantly quelled, she even shrank her neck while holding the phone, "Third Young Master, I was just speculating, after all... Iris is a beautiful woman."
Iris is a beautiful woman, no matter the sense.
"Indeed, her beauty only makes want to personally destroy her."
Jonas’s gaze beca vacant, as if he was high up in the clouds, dark ink swirling in his eyes, capable of staining all conscience, "If this is a form of love, then perhaps I am deeply in love with Iris."

Iris had a long, long dream, one she couldn’t wake from. After finishing her al, she fell into a deep coma, isolating herself from the outside world.
Watching Iris lying on the bed with her eyes closed, Hannah felt extrely guilty. She had ultimately drugged Iris, and now the drug has taken effect. Jonas must be on his way.
He intended to get here beforehand, taking advantage of Iris’s discomfort and weakness to claim her life.
Hannah pursed her lips, standing hesitantly at the door, wondering if she should inform Lachlan. If Lachlan showed up, perhaps it could stop Jonas...
But it’s too late.
The sound of Jonas’s car engine dying had already appeared at the villa’s entrance.
She blocked all electronic signals, making it impossible to make any phone call within the house, locking the door would turn this place into a hell.
Jonas ca downstairs, opened the door confidently, and upon entering, found Hannah standing by the door of Iris’s bedroom on the second floor. He laughed, "I thought you were having second thoughts."
"How could I?"
Hannah imdiately bowed her head, "I always follow your orders, the drug has taken effect, Iris... Iris is asleep."
"Let have a look."
Jonas walked forward, brushed past her without hesitation, and then looked at the woman in a deep sleep on the bed. He curled his lips, at first glance appearing affectionate yet strikingly handso, "Iris, I want to hear you scream."
