Iris Harris pursed her lips, nodded, and said, "I know. Where is he now?"
"Mr. Hyde is in your bedroom."
Upon hearing this, Iris felt a thud in her heart.
The pregnancy report was casually placed in the drawer of her dressing table. If Brandan Hyde saw it...!
Cold sweat broke out instantly. Iris steadied her nerves, thinking Brandan wasn't the type to rummage through her things. It shouldn't be such bad luck.
"I'll go upstairs to take a look."
Iris nodded gently, ready to go upstairs, but Faye grabbed her hand.
"Miss Harris, be careful..." Faye hesitated, looking at her. "You're still pregnant..."
Iris pursed her lips. Although she hadn't told Faye she was pregnant, Faye, having had children, could see what was going on.
"Mm." Iris said, "He shouldn't do anything to me, don't worry."
At the very least, they hadn't met recently, and Brandan had no reason to pick a fight with her.
Thinking this way, Iris felt much more at ease, let go of Faye's hand, and went upstairs alone.
