Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 325: Hunter Miles Is Also a Pitiful Man
At the door stood a middle-aged woman dressed elegantly, concealing the storm within her heart. She glanced at the waiter, took the fruit tray from her hand, twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open.
"Eleanor is here too?"
"Sister-in-law."
Eleanor Shaw moved a bit away from Gabriel Miles, giving Iris Nash an awkward smile.
Iris Nash smiled slightly, placed the fruit tray on the coffee table, and looked at Gabriel Miles, "Luke, I happened to be nearby, so I came to tell you that I’m going to see my mother, I won’t be back tonight."
Gabriel Miles stared at Iris Nash, his eyes full of coldness.
"What did you hear outside just now?"
Iris Nash’s heart skipped a beat, and she smiled at Gabriel Miles, "I just arrived, what could I have heard?"
Gabriel Miles fixed his gaze on her and said, "Iris, remember, only by relying on me, can you continue to be a respectable politician’s wife, and your family can live better. Know clearly what to say and what not to say."
His words were filled with threats, and Iris Nash’s fingers involuntarily curled, a hint of endurance flashing through her eyes.
"Luke, I’ve always been sensible, you guys continue chatting, I’ll head out first."
Once outside, Iris Nash felt an ache in her nose, the tears she had been holding back now wetting her eyes.
Politician’s wife?
Does she really care for that?
All she wants is to be with her beloved husband, have a warm home, live an ordinary life.
But over these years, she only sees her husband’s hypocrisy.
A heart full of desolation.
She wishes she could abandon everything and escape from this barren marriage.
Yet, when she thinks of her mother, she suppresses her clamoring heart.
She was born into a family of intellectuals, the youngest daughter.
Her parents had her nearly at their middle age, so they protected her very well.
She was always the good girl in her parents’ eyes with great expectations for marriage when she married Gabriel Miles.
In other people’s eyes, she’s a respected politician’s wife.
Similarly, her parents also had high hopes for her marriage.
But only she knows that her husband has been having affairs behind her back.
And the affair is with her sister-in-law!
When she found out, she fought with Gabriel Miles, wanting to divorce him.
But Gabriel Miles threatened her to think of her family.
The next day, her elder brother in office had a bit of trouble.
She was shocked, realizing afterward that Gabriel Miles used some means, almost costing her brother his job.
This was Gabriel Miles’ silent intimidation towards her.
If she didn’t obediently comply, her other family members would suffer next.
This man is truly despicable, truly terrifying.
The man sleeping beside her turned out to be a giant python.
Cold-blooded and heartless, capable of devouring her without mercy!
She is scared, helpless, wanting to tell her parents, wanting their advice.
But their hair has long been grey, she couldn’t bear to see them worrying at such an age, so she only shared her joys, not her woes.
Ten years ago, her father died of illness, and her mother, saddened, became physically frail.
Now, her mother resides in a nursing home, and her only wish is for her mother to live well.
As long as she’s alive, Iris feels it’s necessary to continue being this politician’s wife.
Iris Nash slowly turned around, glancing at the tightly shut door, suppressing her humiliation, and walked away quickly.
Inside the room, Eleanor Shaw watched the door close, and the thought flashing through her mind reappears.
"Luke, why don’t you divorce her?"
If Hunter Miles were dead, she would be free.
Then could she be openly together with Gabriel Miles?
Gabriel Miles frowned, looked at Eleanor Shaw, "Eleanor, although I’ve retired, I’m still in the system. If I get divorced, surely my reputation will be affected."
He understood Eleanor Shaw’s meaning.
But he couldn’t divorce.
Because his career and half a lifetime of good reputation cannot be ruined.
Eleanor Shaw looked at him for two seconds, lowering her eyes to hide her expectations.
"Luke, I know, I was just saying it casually."
Forcing Gabriel to divorce, she knew it was unlikely.
But she still felt a sense of indescribable disappointment in her heart.
"Eleanor, don’t be sad. What does it matter if I divorce? You are my favorite woman, I will cherish you and Samantha forever."
Gabriel Miles hugged Eleanor Shaw, comforting her softly.
Eleanor Shaw suppressed her disappointment, forced a smile, "Yeah, I know, I need to go back, Samantha is home alone, I’m worried."
With half a lifetime gone, she wasn’t in a hurry.
Better to first resolve Hunter Miles’ problem.
"Alright."
Gabriel Miles watched Eleanor Shaw leave, his expression gradually turning fierce.
He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
"Aiden, do me a favor."
...
Iris Nash left the Elegant Tea Bar, hesitated for a moment, then had the driver take her to the hospital.
She had heard everything just now.
Hunter Miles is also a pitiful person, being played around by his brother and wife.
In the end, this pair of wicked husband and adulterous woman intend to murder for gain.
She had to discreetly alert him!
Upon arriving at Hunter Miles’ VIP ward, seeing no one inside, Iris Nash pushed the door and entered.
"Second Brother." Iris Nash called.
Hunter Miles was leaning against the headboard reading the news. Hearing Iris Nash’s voice, he looked up, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Sister-in-law, please sit down, what brings you here today?"
They seldomly had conversations, aside from obligatory greetings during holidays, they hardly shared topics.
"I’m heading to my mom’s later, saw there’s still time, heard you were sick, so I came to see you."
Iris Nash curved her lips, sat on the chair next to the bed.
"An old ailment, thanks for caring, Sister-in-law."
Hunter Miles replied politely, unsure of what else to say.
After a moment of silence between them, Iris Nash looked at Hunter Miles, "Second Brother, I’ve always known about their affair."
Hunter Miles’ breath paused, a flicker of emotion showing in his eyes.
"Sister-in-law, you knew? When did you find out?"
"A long time ago, maybe ten years back."
Iris Nash sighed, a face full of sorrow.
Hunter Miles looked at her, "Since you knew, why didn’t you expose the truth instead of pretending ignorance? How could you endure seeing your husband and sister-in-law tangled together all these years?"
"Can’t endure but must endure! Second Brother, you should know your brother’s tactics, I don’t want anything bad happening to my family."
Iris Nash’s eyes reddened, covering her face with her hand and sobbing.
Hunter Miles clenched his hands into fists, "Are you saying Gabriel Miles threatened you using your family?"
Iris Nash remained silent, only nodding.
"Despicable!"
Hunter Miles cursed hatefully, "I never imagined, in my eyes, a capable and responsible good brother would turn out to be such a person!"
Gabriel Miles is too good at pretending!
He played everyone around him.
"In the political world, how can anyone survive without a bit of scheming?"
Iris Nash sniffled, calming her emotions.
"Second Brother, are you planning to divorce Eleanor Shaw?"
