Breaking Free from the Ex-Husband novel Chapter 73

Iris felt Danica’s anger, so she gently held her hand.

Soon, Melanie appeared in an elegant dress, bowing and sitting down to the applause of everyone as the music started.

Melanie’s first performance was “Castle in the Sky“. The song wasn’t difficult, and Iris learned to play the cello in less than half a year.

Melanie actually messed up three times during the whole song.

However, the mistake she made was not very obvious. Only those who have learned the cello and played this piece would know. For outsiders, it’s impossible to tell.

As for why Melanie made three mistakes in this easy song, Iris thinks it’s probably because Melanie’s mind wasn’t on playing the violin, but on Heriberto.

It was obvious that when playing the violin, Melanie was constantly looking at Heriberto, almost half of the time focusing on him.

Similarly, Heriberto also noticed the mistake. At the last wrong moment, he visibly frowned and looked displeased.

Melanie probably sensed his displeasure, and then she backed off a lot.

I thought at first, the first song was played wrong, not because she wasn’t skilled, but because Heriberto distracted her.

But in the following songs, every one Melanie was on a business trip, even if she didn’t look at Heriberto, she still made mistakes.

Some places, even downright wrong.

Iris was quiet the whole time, didn’t show any unusual behavior, but didn’t say a word.

However, even Danica, who knows nothing about it, could tell that something was wrong. She kept frowning non–stop.

Finally couldn’t take it anymore, she complained, “Damn, with this level she’s still called the cello queen, bullshit! Even street performers are a hundred times better than her.”

Iris looked at her, didn’t say anything.

“Hey babe, how much did you spend on the tickets?” Danica asked.

“VIP tickets were 4888,” Iris answered.

“Damn!” Danica cursed directly, “Why doesn’t she just go rob it.”

Iris laughed and said softly, “Stealing is against the law.”

Danica gave her a look, “You’re still in the mood to laugh, I feel like leaving.”

“Don’t worry, just listen, only two songs left,” Iris reassured.

Since she wanted to listen, Danica had no choice but to accompany

her.

However, in the following time, Danica’s attention was no longer on Melanie and the song they were playing, but on the front row Heriberto.

Because she was five rows away and directly in front, no matter how Danica turned her head, she couldn’t see Heriberto’s face.

“Baby, I’m going to the bathroom,” she said.

“Um.”

Iris nodded, watched her get up and leave, then continued to listen attentively.

Danica did go to the bathroom.

But her main purpose wasn’t to go to the bathroom.

After coming out of the bathroom, she went straight to the front of Heriberto from the side door, then crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, staring at Heriberto.

Heriberto leaned back in the chair, legs crossed, with a cold and noble expression on his face, not a hint of emotion.

Just like a statue.

Danica watched Heriberto for two minutes, found it boring, was about to leave, when suddenly Heriberto’s gaze swept over and caught sight of her.

In an instant, he furrowed his brows slightly, his gaze following her figure, and he caught sight of Iris sitting five rows behind him.

Iris was stunning tonight, she was so gorgeous and dazzling.

She leaned back in the chair, quietly staring ahead, not moving at all, exuding a strong sense of peaceful tranquility that comes with the passage of time.

The moment he saw her, Heriberto’s troubled and restless heart magically calmed down.

That feeling, it’s like a cool spring suddenly rushing into the hot heart,
