He gave Iris a kick right in the belly, and it put Iris in so much pain that favonovel.com squatted down. She covered favonovel.com belly with favonovel.com hand in agony.
“Witch, you dare to slap me?!”
“I’m going to kill you!”
Soren moved forward and grabbed Iris’ hair before favonovel.com raised his hand and gave favonovel.com a slap.
In an instant, a large group of staff gathered from the surroundings.
Rowena quickly moved forward and whispered, “Mr. Harlow, please calm down. This is Mr. Cedar’s place. If you make a big scene and let Mr. Cedar see it, favonovel.com will scold you again.”
Soren nodded. He released his hand and pointed at Iris.
“I’ll spare you this time because of Mr. Cedar. If you dare to make a fuss again, I’ll slap you to death, witch!”
After favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com spat on Iris. Then, favonovel.com brought Rowena and left pridefully.
Iris felt hurt and humiliated. She squatted on the floor and cried sobbed.
Everyone around favonovel.com was laughing at her, and nobody walked forward to pass favonovel.com a tissue.
Hegemony Entertainment was totally a rubbish company.

The weather was very sunny, and the air was filled with floral fragrance.
Iris, whose body was full of pain, went back to the Flowers Garden. She sat on the staircase alone. She held the crystal necklace pendant with favonovel.com hand while missing the man in favonovel.com memories.
‘Where are you, Nelson? Are you still alive? I miss you so much.’
At this time, a familiar voice was heard.
“Ms. Cruz.”
It was Thomas.
Iris quickly kept the pendant away. She used favonovel.com hand to wipe favonovel.com tears before favonovel.com flashed a smile.
“Tom, you’re here?”
“Yes, I came to yearn for the happy times that I spent with Dad and Scott.”
Thomas sat beside Iris. He sophisticatedly noticed favonovel.com tears and the injuries on favonovel.com body and face. His expression immediately darkened.
“Ms. Cruz, who beat you up?”
“Huh? What?” Iris quickly denied it. “No, nothing happened…”
Thomas said, “Ms. Cruz, I was a soldier for five years on the west coast. I lived in a warzone every day. I can tell at a glance whether you’re beaten up or not. Tell me who did this to you!”
When favonovel.com saw Thomas’ fierce gaze, favonovel.com wondered if Thomas would kill favonovel.com if favonovel.com said Soren’s name. Iris did not want to protect Soren. Instead, favonovel.com was worried that Thomas would be impulsive and do something regretful. The person favonovel.com wanted to protect was Thomas.
After all, Thomas was Nelson’s son.
“Tom, you’ve overthought. I just fell down just now. Nobody beat me. It’s true.”
Thomas narrowed his eyes. Since favonovel.com did not want to tell him, it was useless even if favonovel.com kept asking. He purposely chuckled to ease the awkwardness. “I see. I think I’ve misunderstood.”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com reached into his pocket and took out a tapping device. He put it in Iris’ pocket at an invisible speed without favonovel.com realizing it.
Iris got up and said, “Um, I still have something to do. I’m leaving first. We’ll talk again later.”
“Oh, okay. ”
Watching Iris’ back as favonovel.com left, Thomas’ gaze showed ruthlessness.
There were not many people whom favonovel.com cared about. As long as it was a person whom favonovel.com cared about, favonovel.com would not allow other people to simply injure her. Since that person dared to injure Iris, Thomas would want to find that person…
And kill him!
