The affection of these people is so ridiculous, making her feel like she's just a joke herself.
The study gradually became silent, leaving only the sound of each other's breathing.
Iris Harris turned her red eyes away, truly feeling heartbroken. She thought that in this world, Lady Hyde genuinely cared for her, but she was wrong.
All these years felt like a joke.
Unfortunately, she truly couldn't laugh.
"I want to leave," she lowered her head, her voice weak, with a hint of despair, "Auntie, I really want to leave... I feel like I'm just a toy by his side. He manipulates me however he wishes. If I have to live like this for a lifetime, I might as well die."
Lady Hyde stared blankly at her face. Iris lowered her head, tears slowly dripping down her sharp chin, that kind of despair leaving Lady Hyde somewhat bewildered.
Is it really over?
Between her and Brandan...
Is there really no hope left?
Does Brandan know?
About Iris's feelings?
