Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Nora looked at her.
Iris knew what she meant. She shook her head.
Only then did Nora give a casual wave. With that, the people from the Quinn School of Martial Arts and Jordan’s men moved out of the way and allowed Philip to leave.
Philip, however, looked at Iris. “Iris, you can’t bear to let us fight, right? I know you are afraid that I would get hurt, so that means I have a place in your heart, right? So why can’t we be together?”
Iris lowered her eyes and sighed silently. “Philip, do you know what the biggest regret in my life is?”
Philip immediately answered, “That you didn’t leave with me back then!”
However, Iris merely smiled wryly. She really didn’t know where the man was getting all that confidence from. Word by word, she said, “My biggest regret is meeting you back then.”
Philip stumbled and he stood still. “What?”
Iris slowly said, “I said, my biggest regret is getting to know you. If I didn’t know you, maybe I would have been able to live in peace my whole life, right? I could happily get a divorce if I wanted to, and go wherever I wanted to, instead of being trapped by you in the suburbs of New York City for twenty years!”
Philip couldn’t believe it. “Iris, I don’t believe you. You must be trying to provoke me. Otherwise, why would you make Nora let me go so easily?”
Iris lowered her head. “I just don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore. I hope you can respect yourself and never approach me or disturb my life ever again!”
After saying that, Iris turned and left with Nora while Philip stood where he was.
“Iris! You’re lying! Everything you said is a lie!”
Philip shouted and rushed over to chase after her. However, he was stopped by Lucas and the others.
“Mr. Coleman, don’t force us to take action against you.” After Nora and Iris left, Lucas and the others also left one after another.
Only Philip and his men were left.
A shocked Philip stared in the direction that Iris had left. After standing there for some time, he finally looked at Jason and asked, “Tell me, Jason, have I really made a mistake?”
Jason sighed. “Boss, let’s go home.”
Philip shook his head. “Without her, where would my home be?”
Jason fell silent.
His boss’ love was simply too extreme. Probably no woman, no matter how strong or powerful she was, would be able to stand his love, let alone Iris.
Jason was about to say something when Philip suddenly turned around with a cold look on his face. He looked at the man who had tried to grab Cherry just now and suddenly demanded, “Who asked you to attack the child?”
Philip was not a good man.
But for Iris, he’d wanted to keep the last bit of his moral boundaries in front of her.
Upon being questioned by Philip, the man got a huge shock and he got down on his knees right away. “Boss, I was just trying to save you!”
Philip, however, lowered his eyes, turned, and strode away.
Jason, who was following him, heard him say, “There is no need for a man who can’t follow orders to return with us.”
Jason understood at once.
“Yes, sir.”
This meant that he was going to get rid of the man!
Jason followed closely behind Philip. “Boss, you can explain to Ms. Iris that you didn’t order the man to do that. This way, maybe she won’t blame you anymore.”
Philip chuckled. “Would she believe anything I say?”
Jason was taken aback.
Philip said, “She didn’t start getting angry at me because of this incident.”

Iris, who had returned home with Nora, was currently looking at the three precious children. With a sorrowful face, she looked at Nora and suddenly said, “Nora, if you have anything you want to do, then just go ahead and do it. I can look after the children.”
Now that Justin was gone, she didn’t want to trap Nora with the Hunts.
If Justin was still alive, he probably wouldn’t want Nora to be alone for the rest of her life, either.
For her son’s sake, Iris had already been miserable all her life. She didn’t want Nora to be like her.
Upon hearing this, Nora immediately said, “Yeah, well, it just so happens that I’m about to go and look for Justin too. I’ll leave the Hunt Corporation to you for now!”
Iris was stunned by her words. She grabbed Nora’s shoulders and said, “… Don’t be sad. It has already happened, you have to face reality.”
Nora: “?”
She was taken aback for a while. Then, she said, “I’m not sad!”
Iris, however, became nervous. “I understand, you may not be able to accept right away the fact that Justin is gone, but Nora, if you want to cry, then just cry. You don’t have to put up pretenses in front of me.”
She hugged Nora and continued comforting her. “Justin wouldn’t want you to be like this. He loves you so much, he would definitely want you to be happy. Don’t waste your own life, life is not just about romance. Besides, you can still find another man if you meet a suitable one in the future… I know it’s not appropriate of me to say such things now, but I’m really afraid that you would do something silly… No matter what, you have to stay strong. You still have your father and your children, okay?”
Nora: “??!”
Only then did she realize that she hadn’t yet told Iris that Justin wasn’t dead!
Nora hurriedly said, “Iris… There’s something I have to tell you. Justin is…”
“Let’s not talk about him anymore, okay? If you’re going to look for him, then I’d rather you forget him. Nora, one’s life is what matters the most, remember this.”
Iris looked at her, her eyes were full of heartache. “I’d always thought that you’re a calm and rational person but it turns out that you are just like everyone else when you encounter something like this. Nora, I didn’t expect you to love Justin so much. You really shouldn’t do anything silly…”
Nora: “…”
The corners of her lips spasmed. At last, Nora found a break in Iris’ speech and interrupted her.
“Justin is not dead.”
“I know, I know.”
Iris nodded.
Nora was stunned. “You do?”
Iris’s eyes became even redder. “Yes, he is not dead. He will always live on in your heart.”
Nora: “?”
Iris sighed and held her hand. “You should live on properly with him. Justin was only twenty-six years old when he said goodbye to this world. Take him with you as you look at every place in this world.” Nora: “…”
“He’d want you to become his eyes and admire the Northern Lights and the frozen Antarctic that stretches on for miles. He’d also want to watch the three children grow up and have their own families… Nora, can you promise me that you’ll look at all this for him??”
The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed again. At last, she said, “He’s not dead yet. He has eyes too, he can see all that himself.”
Iris: “?”
She was stunned. “Nora, when you say he’s not dead, you mean…?”
Nora nodded. “It’s exactly what you’re thinking. He’s still alive, so he can look at this world! He’s not dead!”
Iris: “!!”
