Chapter 777: ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT ME AWAY?
The moment Lou asked whether or not she wanted to know why he acted out of his character, Iris knew, there was something serious behind the reason of this nagging feeling.
Iris was reassured when Cane finally opened up to her and did not reject her advance, he became affectionate with her again, but once Cane went away and the butterfly in her stomach stopped fluttering its wings, that weird feeling came again.
Especially after she saw Lou.
In the past, no matter how she tried to push him away, he would stick to her and never miss the opportunity to one up Cane.
Therefore, when she saw Lou was acting weird toward her, she knew Cane was hiding something and for odd reason, Lou agreed with him, therefore he avoided her, since he couldn’t resist not to tell her.
"That’s what happened, right?" Iris voiced out all of her suspicion. She couldn’t rely on Aliana and the other because they obeyed Cane blindly and even if Hanna couldn’t tell her, the only person whom she could get the answer was this merchant. "Cane has been hiding something and you agreed with his decision."
Lou raised his brows. He was surprised that her guess was rather accurate. "Wow! You are smart!"
Iris frowned, it didn’t sound like a praise at all. "And what is it that he has been hiding from me, until all of you agreed with him. Even you agreed with him."
Lou raised both of his arms. He looked offended to be said he agreed with that alpha’s idea. "I did not. I do not agree with him."
"Then, tell me what is it?" Iris looked calm and collected, it was so different from herself two weeks ago.
Was it alright to tell her about what happened? She looked like she could handle it... Lou actually contemplated it.
