"What is it?" Iris questioned after Roman handed out a letter towards her. She accepted and began reading the lines.
"It's an invitation from my old friend. I would love to come but unfortunately, I could not due to certain circumstances."
Iris lifted her gaze, feeling a bit suspicious. Moreover, after seeing the huge smile on her uncle's face. "Wait. Are you telling me that you want me to go there on your behalf?" She questioned him.
"Yes," he simply replied.
"Is this some sort of joke? You just told me about the invitation two days before the event? And why should I go when I never met your so-called old friend? What's more, you wanted me to go alone?" Iris questioned with an incredulous tone.
"Of course not. I will have someone to accompany you later." His response came in a matter of fact tone, causing Iris' eyes widened slightly.
"Who would be accompanying me?" She insisted.
