Chapter 1681: Corrupt Thoughts


    Chapter 1681: Corrupt Thoughts


    It turns out that Athena not only abducted Iris but also instilled corrupt thoughts in her. She manipted


    Iris, iming that her biological mother, Joyce, is a malicious woman?


    Athena''s scheming nature and cunning methods are truly remarkable.


    Luther felt a surge of anger building up in his chest, making it difficult to swallow. Waves of fury rushed


    to his brain. He clenched his fists tightly, restraining himself, but he didn''t want to scare Iris.


    Unnoticed, he took his phone from Iris'' hand and gently stroked her hair, smiling without saying a word.


    Athena caught a glimpse of Luther''s phone screen, and her eyes instantly darkened. It was a picture of


    Joyce. Envy welled up within her, her eyes turning red. In Luther''s heart, Joyce held a high position.


    After ten years, she never expected to encounter such a formidable rival. She had thought that Luther,


    with his discerning eyes, would never be interested in any other woman. Who couldpare to her?


    Luther noticed Athena''s change.


    He pondered in his heart that Athena was not simple, and he still didn''t know what background she


    relied on. But regardless of Athena''s connections, she herself was the biggest threat. He remembered


    Charlotte, who had already passed away.


    Compared to Athena, Charlotte was nothing. Her schemes, methods, abilities, cruelty, and level of


    insanity were far inferior. Charlotte was only formidable because she had helpers, but even without


    assistance, Athena was not someone to be underestimated.


    Most importantly, Athena''s level of obsession went beyond that of an ordinary person. She couldn''t be


    easily provoked, or all their previous efforts would be in vain.


    Athena pushed the wheelchair over and beckoned to Iris.


    Iris immediately left Luther''s embrace and went into Athena''s arms, hugging her and calling out,


    "Mommy, what''s wrong? Why do you look so sad? Iris will be good and obedient."


    Athena pretended to look sorrowful. When she looked up, tears were already welling up in her eyes,


    and she held Iris even tighter, asionally casting sorrowful nces at Luther.


    Alisha, with her high emotional intelligence, sensed a different message from Athena''s reaction. Her


    small eyes suddenly turned to Luther.


    Her gaze carried a hint of hostility, causing Luther''s heart to sink.


    Sure enough, Alisha used him in her childish voice, "Daddy, there are pictures of a bad woman on


    your phone. Daddy, is it because of this bad woman that you haven''t wanted me and mommy for all


    these years?"


    Alisha started crying, "Daddy doesn''t want to stay with us at night anymore. Did Daddy change his


    mind?"


    Luther narrowed his eyes, anger surging instantly.


    But he couldn''t me the child. Iris was born as a nk te, only to be tainted by Athena''s malicious


    influence. What should he do to set everything right?


    He endured and endured. Iris was his flesh and blood. Even if she was currently being manipted by


    Athena, given enough time, he could turn the situation around.


    In front of Iris, he took out his phone again, changed the main screen photo, and reced it with a in


    background.


    "Iris, it''s not what you think. Daddy will stay with you tonight, okay?" He changed his mind. He couldn''t


    let Iris''s emotional trauma continue to grow.


    "Okay!" Alisha instantly became happy. She jumped back into Luther''s arms and kissed his cheek.


    Indeed, girls were naturally affectionate. Luther felt his heart melting. He had longed to have a


    daughter. Now that his dream hade true, he had to n carefully.


    Athena''s lips curled up, revealing a smug smile.


    She had achieved her goal.


    She pushed the wheelchair over again, smiling but hiding her true intentions. "Brother Luther, for the


    sake of your safety, I need to install software on your phone. I hope you don''t mind."


    "Heh," Luther sneered.


    When he parked his car here yesterday, it had already been secretly equipped with a GPS tracking


    system by her people.


    Did she think he didn''t know? To guard against her, he naturally had to be more cautious. He had


    already set up countermeasures and had his car thoroughly inspected by professionals at the


    He handed over his phone and ced it on the coffee table.


    Athena gestured to her subordinates.


    A ck-d person approached, and another one took out a palm-sized professional device and


    connected it to Luther''s phone. As the blue screen flickered, they imnted a listening system into


    Luther''s phone.


    Luther coldly watched everything.


    When they finished their operation, he suddenly said, "I''m thirsty. I''ll have a cup of Rain Dew Longjing


    tea."


    Athena''s eyes brightened. Tea art was also considered a unique skill in the Bard family. He


    actuallyremembered her adeptness in tea art. She excelled at brewing tea, leaving a lingering


    fragrance and an unforgettable taste.


    "Okay, I''ll go make tea for you right away."


    Athena was extremely excited. She beckoned for two ck-d individuals toe and help her push


    the wheelchair.


    The ck-d figures approached and pushed Athena away.


    At this moment, Luther said to Iris, "What toys do you usually like to y with? Bring them over and


    show Daddy, okay? Daddy will buy you new toys in a couple of days."


    "Okay!" Alisha slid down from Luther''s body and ran to the other end of the living room to fetch her


    favorite toys.


    Seizing the opportunity, Luther saw that no one was around.

    He quickly took out an ultra-miniature bug from his pocket and swiftly installed it under the sofa, firmly


    pressing it against the wooden frame to ensure it wouldn''t fall off.


    This specially made bug not only had eavesdropping capabilities but also emitted its own


    electromaic waves, making it undetectable by ordinary detectors. It was currently the most


    advanced device.


    Then, he casually stood up as if nothing had happened.


    By this time, Alisha had returned to his side.


    He lifted her up and sat her on hisp, wrapping his arms around her tiny waist.


    Seeing the toys Iris brought, he was slightly shocked. They were all intellectual toys-imitation games,


    nine-link rings, and even challenging puzzle games.


    "Do you like ying with these?" he asked.


    "Yes, they''re very interesting. Daddy, will you y with me?" Alisha responded.


    "Okay." Luther held Iris and focused on watching her y the games. She was small and soft in his


    arms, emanating a faint fragrance. His heart waspletely devoted to her. He wished Joyce could


    know about Iris sooner.


    However, Iris'' current state and the thoughts instilled by Athena made him extremely worried.


    After a while, Athena returned with the tea.


    She eagerly brought it over.


    In fact, Luther had already heard her movements. He turned his back, judging her distance, and then,


    in the moment she handed over the teacup, he suddenly turned around.


    Coincidentally, he knocked over the teacup Athena was handing him.


    The bright green tea spilled onto the sofa. Luther immediately stood up, holding Alisha, to protect Iris


    from any harm.


    The spilled tea was scalding hot, and almost all of it spilled onto Athena''s hand.
