Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband

The persimmons need to be washed clean, then peeled and air–dried naturally.

Heriberto went upstairs to pick up an important document. On his way downstairs, he heard laughter coming from the kitchen and couldn’t help but walk over.

In the kitchen on the west side, in front of the island counter, Agnese was washing persimmons while Iris was peeling them. They worked together seamlessly, chatting and laughing, looking like friends rather than master and servant.

Heriberto suddenly remembered how Eleanor looked when she was with Iris.

Eleanor was one of the most beloved people in his life, so when Eleanor was seriously ill, he didn’t refuse to marry Iris.

But did he not refuse, really because of his admiration for Eleanor, and not for any other reason?

“Mr. Hale, dinner is ready,” the chef suddenly said as he walked over to him.

Iris was chatting with Agnese while peeling persimmons when she heard a sound. She looked up and met Heriberto’s calm and deep gaze staring at her.

Not sure if it was her imagination, but his features were unusually gentle, even tender, and the sharp lines on his face seemed to soften as well.

“Mrs. Hale, dinner is ready, you go eat, I’ll come peel after washing.” Agnese also heard the chef’s words, smiling at Iris.

“Okay.” Iris looked back, dried her hands, and walked straight out.
