The Masterpiece of Leaving：Prepared A Perfect Stand-In For Him novel Chapter 58

"I'll give you one night." He looked down at his watch. "Tomorrow at 9 AM, you bring Iris to the door of the Spencer family on your own."

He didn't clarify what would happen after that.

But Navier had been married to him for four years, and before that, she had always cared for and understood his means.

This man was always ruthless and indifferent towards his opponents.

After Aubrey finished speaking, he turned his back and left.

His figure was indifferent and cold.

Navier watched his departing figure, a cold smile fleeting across her face.

How could she have liked him?

"Aubrey came to see you regarding Iris's custody, right?"

It wasn't until after they finished eating, when Iris had gone to her room, that Fredrica asked about the matter.

Navier nodded, feeling heavy-hearted.

She recounted what Aubrey had said before leaving.

"Damn it!"

Upon hearing Aubrey's threat to Navier, Fredrica couldn't help but curse.

"This guy probably thinks everyone in the world is good except for you, who he can't forgive!"

She became furious and scratched the table as if scratching Aubrey.

"In this matter, a little investigation would reveal who is right and wrong. Aubrey's blind stubbornness is truly astonishing."

"If we had known earlier, it would have been better to never pay attention to him from the beginning, to let him remain in the dark."

"Blindness is not terrifying, but blind stubbornness has no cure!"

Fredrica looked at Navier, his eyes filled with sympathy.

Few people knew that Navier actually had only one eye, and the remaining eye had poor vision.

In the past, because of this sinful man, she had made sacrifices that ordinary people couldn't imagine!

Fredrica knew that bringing up the past would hurt Navier, so he finally stopped and held her hand, "What are you planning to do now? Do you have a plan?"

When a lawsuit begins, the agreement Navier held in her hand would have little value.

At first, Navier had Pamela sign the agreement simply because she understood that Pamela valued her reputation, and once she had signed the document, retracting her commitment would be too humiliating.

She had calculated everything but had overlooked Aubrey.

He had agreed to let her take the child, but now he had changed his mind.

Navier remained silent, and Fredrica couldn't understand her thoughts.

"In my opinion, if he wants to take you to court, let's go ahead and sue! We have evidence in hand, why fear not defeating those dogs?" Fredrica decisively said, taking out his phone to call a lawyer.

"No!" Navier quickly grabbed his hand. "Don't sue."

"Navier, it's not a question of whether we want to sue or not now, but rather that Aubrey will definitely sue us!" Fredrica reminded her.

Then he felt heartbroken.

"I understand, you don't want to confront him in public, you don't want your love to end in that way."

After those soul-wrenching experiences, not everyone could endure it.

"I don't care how my love ends, but Iris can't." Navier said, her tone even colder. "She doesn't need to stand between us, fought over by others."

"Therefore, we can't take Iris to court." She had made up her mind.

"But if that's the case, we can only give up Iris," Fredrica expressed his concerns again.

"We won't."

Navier patted his hair and pulled Fredrica closer, whispering in his ear...

"Brother, is it true? Today, will Navier really bring Iris back?"

In the Spencer household, Diana had just learned this news and hurriedly sought out Aubrey for confirmation.

Ever since Pamela's dark expression finally returned to normal, she went to Diana and said, "Your brother hasn't gone to work all morning just to wait for Iris. What could it be?"

"That's fantastic!" After receiving the confirmation, Diana was so overjoyed that she seemed like she wanted to jump up.

He walked around and didn't see any sign of Iris.

"Iris won’t come here," I calmly replied.

Aubrey's face turned angry upon hearing the answer, and as he looked at me, the same disdainful expression that used to be on his face resurfaced. "Did you think hiding Iris would prevent me from doing anything? How naive!"

I merely chuckled.

Truly, what Aubrey wanted to scold me for was foolishness.

"What do you want to do?"

Initially, I had wanted to say something else, but upon hearing this question, I suddenly felt concerned.

"Of course, I will find a lawyer to take you to court, so from now on, you will never see Iris again!" Diana couldn't contain her tone.

My smile grew even more sardonic.

Although I was smiling, in my eyes, a profound sense of sadness emerged.

Finally, I looked directly at Aubrey. "Is that so?"

My resolute gaze clearly defined that I would definitely get an answer.

Aubrey looked into my eyes and saw the teardrops trembling in my memories.

His heart ached.

But only for a few seconds.

Immediately, he nodded. "Yes!"

For a woman who only knew how to play manipulative games like me, this was the best way to punish me!

"You're so ruthless," I murmured, my voice filled with pain and helplessness.

Aubrey laughed coldly. "Just like your calculations four years ago, I have been generous enough!"

"Calculations four years ago?" I asked again, surprised that he would bring up that matter.

My eyes grew colder. "Aubrey, why do you still see yourself as the victim?"
