Chapter 531: MISUNDERSTANDING AND CLARITY
While the tonic prepared for Cane was to help him with his fertility issue, the tonic meant for Iris was simply to nurse her health, so she wouldn’t fall sick easily, which was proven to work wonders on her.
However, hearing what Cane said, she felt her heart being stabbed with a dull knife as she kept apologizing again.
"No, Iris. Stop." Cane didn’t tell her this to make her feel bad, he only wanted her to be aware of this and to find out whether they were on the same page about having the baby, since they had never talked openly about this.
Yet, he didn’t expect the effect of what he said to be so great on Iris, as she literally took it so hard and blamed herself
"Please, don’t." Cane kissed her to stop her from apologizing, as she felt so horrified.
"I didn’t mean it, Cane."
"I know you didn’t mean it."
"I am not lying."
"You are not a liar, Iris." Even if she did lie to him, he would know immediately, as she was not good at keeping secrets from him.
However, it didn’t make Iris stop crying and Cane was not sure about what to do. He started to think that he had talked to her too harshly. But, he was certain that he didn’t even raise his voice when he told her off about the alcohol.
Cane then put aside the bed tray and hugged her. He waited until she calmed down again, because she was too emotional right now.
