Chapter 6

مؤلف: Mu Muyu
Isaac raised his head and furrowed his brows. This added to his menacing look. "What?"

Zachary gritted his teeth. "Whatever. I’ll let you you off this time since it concerns your happiness."

Isaac gave him a dark, placid look. Drive.

After Stan drove off, Zachary decided that he must at least do something for Irene. However, he saw that she had just stepped out of the entrance when he turned to head back to the lounge.

"Irene." Zachary walked up to her.

"I need to go." Irene looked at Zachary with a smile.

Zachary’s heart ached when he saw her like this. "I'll do my best to find a donor for your mother," he said.

The thought of her mother made Irene’s heart skip a beat. She worked hard to hide her feelings, but the quiver in her voice was gave her away. "Really?"

A heart donor wasn't easy to find, and there were plenty of cases where patients died even before they could find a match.

Tears welled up in her eyes, she didn't know how to express her gratitude other than to say thank you to Zachary.

"We're friends, aren't we? Don't get all mushy on me now." Zachary actually felt a little embarrassed. He knew that she would be much closer to her dream if Isaac wasn't the one pulling strings.

"I'll give you a lift home."

"No, it's fine." Irene quickly refused his proposal. She had no choice, because she wasn't going back to her own home.

Naturally, Zachary didn't insist.

-

Irene took a taxi back to the mansion after she parted with Zachary, and the thought that Isaac would never set foot here made her feel quite relieved.

Even Mrs. Watson could see that Irene wasn't as wary as the first day she moved in.

"You look quite happy. Did something good happen?" Mrs. Watson asked with a smile.

Irene was keeping her head down as she changed into slippers near the front door. "Nothing. I just like staying here with you, Mrs. Watson, just the two of us."

At that moment, another voice sounded. "Are you saying that I'm not welcome here?"

‘That voice...’

Irene looked up and found a man standing in the living room. The air around him seemed to turn cold as he stared at her with a hint of disgust in her eyes.

If she hadn’t seen the man’s face in magazine and on TV, she wouldn’t have recognized this husband of hers.

To be fair, she never expected him to show up.

"What brought you here?"

Irene had no idea what was he doing here. He hated this arranged marriage, didn't he? He shouldn’t have wanted to see her at all.

Isaac’s face darkened. "What? Do I need your permission to be here?"

Irene lowered her head. Isaac had a point. She was the one invading his territory.

"Sign this," Isaac growled, unceremoniously throwing the divorce papers he was holding on the table.

Irene wasn't surprised. It was only natural that he demanded a divorce, but she couldn't sign it now. She had to wait until her mother’s surgery had been completed.

"Mr. Jeff..." she stammered, unsure how to address Isaac. "Could you..."

"Don’t you want to sign it?" Isaac cut her short before she could finish as if he had expected her to protest. After all, there was no way she would agree to this so easily after she had forced him to marry her through such despicable means.

"Have it your way. Just don't regret your decision in the future," said Isaac as he strode out.

Knowing that he had obviously misunderstood her, Irene wanted to explain. However, she accidentally tripped over the door sill when she tried to chase him and dropped the bag she was holding.

Everything inside tumbled out, and she quickly bent down to pick them up.

That was when she realized something was missing. She looked up to see that it had rolled to Isaac's feet. She reached out by reflex and was keen not to be noticed, a foot stepped on the blister pack just as she reached out.

She looked up to find Isaac's impassive face. He was curious as to why she was so nervous, so he lifted his foot and picked up the blister pack.

It had two cavities, but one pill had been taken, leaving just one.

He turned it around and noted a brand he didn't recognize. While he couldn't tell what pills were in there, the line of text at the bottom made it obvious.

"Works best when taken within 72 hours (3 days) after sexual intercourse."

He would be an idiot if he didn't what the pill was for.

Looking down at the woman on the floor, he remained impassive, though his tone was at once sharp and ironic. "So, you were sleeping with another man on your wedding night?"

At that very moment, he felt utter disgust toward her.

On the other hand, Irene's fingers curled as she restrained the shudder she was feeling and slowly rose to her feet.

She had no right to retort, but she said despite the fact that she was trembling, "I never wanted to marry you."

Isaac thought that she was lying and found her sickening. He flung the blister pack at her, slicing a faint cut at the corner of her eye.

Irene had closed her eyes by instinct, but neither Isaac's expression of anger nor the pain on her face hurt her more than the humiliation she had just suffered. Biting her lip, she bent down and picked up the blister pack.

The thin plastic quickly deformed in her grip, cutting into her skin painfully.

"If you like having sex so much, I can make arrangements for you," said Isaac.

After saying those words, Isaac left. Irene was able to understand what he meant after just one night.

Stan showed up at the mansion just as she was going to work.

    “Mom, Dad, you have to help me, or I'll definitely end up in prison!” Ricky Spencer was crying out even as he tugged on Samantha's hand.Lionel glared at his incorrigible son. “What have you done this time?” he growled. It was certainly not Ricky's first offense. “I... I was just trying to practice my driving ahead of my driver's test. Irene's SUV was just sitting there and no one's using it, so I drove it around, and then I got caught in an accident...”“What?”Lionel almost died from a heart attack. “Just days ago, you almost blinded someone with a skewer, and I had to spend so much on damages and apologize to finally resolve it! Now, you're telling me you caused an accident? And without a license! You honestly don't appreciate being alive, do you?”“Calm down, Lionel. Ricky's your only son, and he hasn't completed his studies yet! You have to help him. He can't go to prison. Would he have a future if he does? The SUV is Irene's, so just say that it was her...”“Dream on, Sa

    Irene decided that she would be out of line if she kept her place as Mrs. Jefferson.Nearby, the leaves on a tree were rustling from the touch of a slightly chill breeze. It was the early days of autumn, and the sun was much milder.Tightening her clothes, she hurried along, having planned to cook dinner for Isaac tonight before asking for a divorce.That was when a car suddenly screeched to a halt, blocking her path while several men quickly alighted. Without saying a word, one of them pulled a black sack over her head while another clasped a hand over her mouth, dragging her into the car before speeding off.Irene was immobile and completely under their control.There was no telling how long had passed when she was finally dragged out of the car.Although the black sack still kept her blind, no one was keeping her from talking.“Who are you people? Why did you kidnap me?”“778VQ. That's your car, isn't it?”“Yes,” replied Irene.Her mother had spent all her savings to buy h

    When Isaac woke up, his nostrils were stung by the pungent scent of medicine. As he slowly sat up, his secretary came by to help. “Mr. Jefferson.”Isaac waved her off. “I'm fine,” he said. He took a moment to compose herself before asking, “How's Stan?”“He's unconscious, but the doctor already operated on him, so his life isn't in danger,” the secretary replied. “The doctor has also advised you to rest since you had a minor concussion. Why don't you rest a little?”Isaac remembered the blood on Whitney's legs just then. Pursing his lips in silence for a while, he eventually ended up asking, “How's Whitney?”“The doctor said that she had a miscarriage. She's fine otherwise apart from minor lacerations. She woke up when I arrived. She's in the next ward.”After hesitating for a moment, the secretary asked, “Should I call for her?”Isaac raised a hand to stop her.He was feeling a mixed of emotions. Despite his disgust toward Whitney, and his reluctance to let her be the mothe

    Isaac stared at Whitney in silence, and she gradually felt the creeps.Guilt was gnawing on her. After all, she had never been pregnant!Nonetheless, he said slowly after a while, “If there really is a child in your belly, I want it.”Whitney was jubilant. She would be laughing out loud if she wasn't sitting in front of Isaac, but there was no hiding the joy and excitement on her face.Amidst all the thrill, she asked, “Then, are you going to marry me?”Isaac's answer was short and flat. One might even say cold. “No.”Those words left Whitney's smile stiffening. “What? Why?”“It's a simple issue. I just want the child,” Isaac said flatly with the last ounce of his patience.Whitney started to lose her composure right then. “Well, where are you taking me?”“To the hospital,” Stan answered from the driver's seat, and turned to glance at her for a moment. “You'll give birth to that child, but you won't be the mother.”This time, Whitney was scared witless. “Why the hospital?

    Zachary nodded. Irene stiffened as if she had a bucket of ice water poured on her, dousing her from head to toe.'Isaac told me that he didn't like Whitney, but if that really was the case, why would she be pregnant?' wondered Irene.Noticing the terrible look on Irene's face, Zachary asked in concern, “Are you alright, Irene?”Irene came to her senses and quickly shook her head. “I'm fine.”She felt a sense of loss to hear that Whitney was pregnant, but she was soon relieved.It didn't matter to her whom Isaac loved, as she had no reason to get upset about that.“No, you're not,” Zachary said suspiciously, because she was kind of overreacting. “Did you fall for Isaac?”Irene looked up and met Zachary's gaze. “Did I?”He nodded. “Yes, you did. ““Actually, I'm reacting like this because I'm worried, not because of him,” she said, walking over to sit on a bench. “I know my place. I won't think of him that way.”At the same time, she stroked her belly.Surely there were not

    Over the years, Irene’s heart often ached, but she had also learned to let go.Changing the subject, she asked, “Weren't you asking to be discharged, Mom?”Sheryl nodded. “Yes. I'm much better. I'm ready to leave after such a long stay.”Irene didn't agree to it, however, and instead spoke to her attending physician. He told her that while Sheryl could be discharged, she should ensure that she had sufficient rest and keep to her checkup schedules. Still, Irene didn't tell Sheryl that, but instead said, “You should wait a couple days, Mom.”After all, Sheryl needed a place to live after she was discharged. After Sheryl nodded in agreement, Irene hesitated for a moment before asking her opinion, “Mom, do you want to divorce Lionel?”“I will,” replied Sheryl.Irene pursed her lips. She had wanted her mother to divorce Lionel for years, but it never happened. Moreover, Sheryl was saying she would divorce Lionel—and not that she wanted to.And Irene respected her decision. Afte
