Iris was growing worried, because he doesn't tell her where he is always off to and she has been hearing about some rumors that made her uneasy.

Iris knows that Anthony isn't the type that would cheat ,even though this was an arranged marriage but she doesn't understand why the thought of him seeing another woman was making her get so jealous that she even considered hiring a private investigator to follow him around.
