Chapter 279
Irene struggled, not eager to go with it ‘Mmph, Stop it. Isaac
Isaac didn’t let her go, however, and instead kissed her even more fiercely
Unable to resist, trene tumed into jelly in his artis
After a long while, she finally gave up on reisting, he let go
Irene slowly looked up, crystalline tears lingering on her thick, curled eyelashes. “Why are you doing this?*
Her voice was hoarse and tearful
Even though she didn’t like to cry, she felt utterly miserable at the morment.
Isaac held her gaze. “Does it hurt? Your heart, I mean.
“What?”
*Couldn’t you ask me if you have a question? Did you think I was cheating on you?”
Irene was stunned, her gaze watery just then. “H-How’d you know?”
Isaac did not answer, and instead asked, “Did you talk to Kathy?”
Irene shook her head. “No.”
“Really? Isaac was doubtful.
“You know I’m a doctor, and I have doctor friends,” she explained. “I’ve only checked her medical records.”
“And you thought it was me?”
Irene simply slipped out of his arms, picked up her phone from her table and showed him the photo. “See? I went there because of that. I had no trouble finding her, but I never spoke to her.”
Isaac did not take her phone, but a glance was enough.
“Is this why you suspected me?” he asked, despite knowing the answer.
Irene sat on the bed. “Wouldn’t you, if you were in my place?*
“Get dressed,” he growled.
Stan chimed in, “Of course. All men care about their ladies’ modesty.”
He deliberately twisted the dagger so that Kathy was reminded that Isaac would never fall for her, especially now that she was impure.
Naturally, whatever he said would make Kathy hate Quincy all the more.
Stan saw the fury and hate towards Quincy in Kathy’s eyes.
Back at the present, Irene came to a stunning realization.
Quincy had sent her that photo exactly to drive a wedge between her and Isaac.
Still, Irene had no idea how Kathy became involved with Quincy, so she asked, “What’s the story here?”
Isaac gave her hand a light squeeze. “Keep listening.”
As such, Irene had to stay patient and listened as Kathy spoke once more in the recording.
