My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2158

Chapter 2158

"Take a seat," Lawrence's expression softened slightly as he gestured for Iris to take a seat.

Iris glanced at him and gracefully took a seat next to the couch.

Then she went straight to the point, stating, "Mr. Lawrence, I assume you remember what happened last night. So, let's talk about what you need me to do and what you can offer me in return."

"Do you want Jared or his empire?" Lawrence asked candidly, not hiding his intentions.

Iris raised an eyebrow. "What's the difference?"

"It's obvious. If Jared retains his current position, you'll never have him. So..."

Leaving the sentence hanging, he thought to himself, 'You should understand what I mean, right?'

Iris bit her lip, displaying signs of being conflicted within. She obviously wanted Jared, but...

Then, she looked at Lawrence and asked again, "What do you want me to do?"

Clearly, Lawrence wanted Jared to lose everything. If she had to choose between the two, she would choose Jared, but Lawrence was not a fool either. He would not help her for nothing if she was not of any use to him. Thus, she needed to assess whether she could pull it and whether she could wipe her hands clean thereafter.

She did not want to end up with nothing in the end: with no money and a great deal of resentment from Jared.

"Hah, no wonder you were able to stay by Jared's side for five years." Lawrence suddenly laughed, realizing that there was intelligence behind that pretty face of hers.

Iris shook her head. "You don't need to flatter me. We both have our own interests. I just need to know if my efforts will be proportional to the rewards."

"For having been by his side for so long, you are the person who knows Jared and the Johnston family best. You know what I want from you. It just comes down to whether you're willing to do it or not," Lawrence replied.

He believed she was a clever woman who understood what he wanted very well.

"What can I get in return, then?" Iris asked, not beating around the bush since they had seen through each other.

"Isn't Jared enough?" Lawrence countered.
