The man picked up the tablet for her.
The tablet didn’t have a case, and the screen had a crack.
The man held the umbrella over Iris’s head, glanced at the cracked tablet in his hand, and then looked at her.
Iris was using her coat to wipe the wet books.
She looked up at the man in front of her while wiping, “Sorry, your book got wet, do you wantto...”
Just as she was about to say something, she saw the man’s face clearly and was frozen in place, as if someone
had pressed a pause button on her.
Under the black umbrella, the man with silver rectangular glasses, dark hair and thick eyebrows, deep eye
sockets, high nose bridge, thin lips in a light crimson color, with a faint gentle and elegant curve, was looking at
her with his eyes slightly lowered, his gaze fixed on her.
“I'm sorry.”
The man spoke with a gentle voice, like a piece of soft jade, and handed her tablet to her, “Your tablet is
cracked.”
“You...”
Iris looked at him, eyes wide with surprise,
“Ira!”
“Ira!”

Iris shook her head at him, “I'm fine!”
She explained again, “I accidentally bumped into this gentleman just now, and got his book wet.”
Zayden heard that, then he looked at the book in Iris’s hand, and then he took it from her hand and handed it to
the man, saying, “Sorry, if you mind, we can help you exchange the book for a new one."
“No need.”
The man refused quickly, speaking gently as before, and glanced at Iris, saying, “The lady's tablet screen is
cracked too, so we're even.”
Iris couldn’t stop staring at the man in front of her, looking shocked and dazed.
“Ira,” Zayden called her again.
She cto her senses again, quickly took her tablet, pulled her lips, and awkwardly said to the man, “My tablet
is fine.”
“My book is fine too.”
The man took the book from Zayden’s hand, nodded at the two people, and then walked away with big steps.

Iris turned her head, her gaze following the man’s figure.
Zayden furrowed his brows almost imperceptibly, then hugged her tightly and left.
Not until the man’s figure disappeared did Iris pull back her gaze and followed Zayden’s steps towards the
parking lot.
The two got in the car, Zayden turned up the air conditioning by two degrees.

Iris nodded, “He looks at least seventy percent like Julian, in terms of temperament and appearance.”

The purpose was, of course, to escape the Hale family and Megan’s almost suffocating control over him.
Actually, over the years, whether it was Julian or Heriberto, they were both unhappy.
Julian wasn’t happy because everything was controlled by his family and Megan, his overbearing mother.
Heriberto was unhappy because his mother, Megan, never paid attention to him, ignored him, and was always
focused on Julian.
