Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband

Chapter 356

Isabella ran to the bed, quickly climbed up, and then snuggled into Iris’s arms.

Ezekiel climbed onto the bed too, but he didn’t snuggle into Iris’s arms. Instead, he plopped down on her pillow and grabbed the files she’d left on the nightstand to look through them.

That serious look, totally a little boss.

Iris went to bed too late. She opened her eyes, half asleep, glanced at Ezekiel and Isabella, then kissed Isabella in her arms, and closed her eyes to sleep again.

Isabella tilted up her big head and looked at her with those big, bright

eyes.

Then, Isabella’s little hands held her face, gave her a big kiss on the check, and said in a sweet, soft voice, “Mommy, sleep well, okay? Bella won’t bother Mommy.”

Iris closed her eyes, smiled, kissed Isabella on the forehead again, nodded and said, “Yeah, Bella was awesome!”

Ezekiel sat on the pillow and flipped through Iris’s files like he meant it, then slid off the bed, found the curtain remote, and opened the curtains.
