Chapter 8

Autor: Mu Muyu
'Didn't he just leave me with that pervert? Why would he show up here? Is he here to laugh at me?' wondered Irene.

"Isaac Jefferson!" Irene snapped, pointing at the man despite the killing intent swirling around him, boosted by liquid courage. "You’re a real bastard!"

Isaac's face darkened instantly, while Stan and Mrs. Watson kept their heads down in fearful silence.

Even so, Irene shambled forward, grabbing Isaac's necktie and pulling him toward her. "Did you really think I wanted to marry you? Who do you think you are, some kind of god?"

The alcoholic fumes she breathed left Isaac frowning, and anger brewed in his eyes as he deftly caught her wrist. "Have you gone mad?"

‘Why is she willing to play along with any man?’

He had tried to corner her and make her ask for a divorce, but she was as dumb as a donkey and refused to give in.

Still, he had changed his mind after she left with Harvey. She was his wife, so he would still feel unhappy if she slept with other men.

"You’re the one who’s mad." Irene's hands never stopped clawing at him drunkenly, in retaliation against Isaac for letting that man molest her!

With a dark face, Isaac dragged her upstairs by the wrist, but she tried to shake him off. "Let me go! Let me go..."

Bang!

He kicked open the bedroom door and threw her inside, causing her to stumble and drop to her knees.

"Umph..." Irene moaned as she clutched her kneecaps, and her voice made Isaac a little stunned.

‘That voice..."

His mind seemed to return to that night for a split second.

He felt that Irene sounded quite like Whitney.

"Isaac!"

Irene looked up to glare hatefully at him.

Not only was he spiteful, but he was also violent. Her knees were bleeding.

Isaac came to his senses as he met her gaze.

Striding inside and narrowing his eyes, he growled, "You aren't drunk, are you?"

As a matter of fact, Irene was drunk, but her head was clear.

She propped herself up with both hands, but her ankles caved and she stumbled. She had to catch something beside her to maintain her balance.

However, though she had managed to maintain her balance, she suddenly felt the air around her turn cold.

She slowly looked up to find Isaac's dark, icy gaze, and realized that she had caught his pants with both hands, which would have slipped off if not for his belt.

Even so, that already left Isaac's business attire a mess from all her pulling and flailing.

Irene quickly let go, but the legs of his pants were already wrinkled and floppy.

She avoided Isaac’s eyes in a panic. "I... I didn’t do it on purpose."

Isaac sneered. "Really?"

"Of course. Wait a minute..." She glared at Isaac. "What did you mean?"

"What? Don’t you know what kind of person you are?"

His question and contempt made Irene’s heart ache, but it couldn't be denied that he had seen the morning-after pills and knew that she had cheated on him.

The thought of that night left her flinching, but she maintained a calm look.

She tried to avoid the matter, afraid that someone would find out and use that matter to humiliate her.

"Are you at a loss for words? Are you willing to pounce at any man?" Isaac growled with a sinister glare as he grabbed her neck. "Tell me! How the hell is this possible? How could you cheat on me and still stubbornly refuse to divorce me?"

There was a murderous intent in his words. His wife had cheated on him.

It was the worst humiliation he had ever suffered in his life!

Irene was choking. Her face, which was already scarlet from all that alcohol, became redder as she gasped for breath, her chest was heaving violently.

She struggled, squeezing what air remained out of her throat as she wheezed, "Let... go... of... me..."

As she flailed violently, two buttons snapped off her blouse and fell audibly onto the floor.

Isaac looked down, his eyes darting straight past her pretty collarbones to her black lacy bra, and he was soon left staring at her breasts that looked like they were about to burst out...

Meanwhile, Irene was still still gasping for air. "Umph..."

Her hair was a mess, dangling loosely beside her ears, while her raspy, uneven breathing was somehow seductive...

Realizing that he had been staring for too long, Isaac quickly looked away.

His brows were deeply furrowed and unconsciously swallowing nervously as he worked hard to control his emotions.

He was actually feeling aroused by a slag.

It sickened him!

Feeling angry at himself, he flung Irene onto the bed.

He was actually interested in a woman as unseemly as her! He must have lost his mind!

Turning around, he hurried downstairs.

"Mr. Jefferson." Stan quickly ran up to Isaac when he saw him.

Isaac said nothing as he strode outside.

Stan jogged along to keep up as they returned to the car and drove off. He gingerly glanced behind at Isaac from time to time.

He had no idea what had gotten into Isaac and why was he so furious.

-

Back at the mansion, Irene was lying in bed and gulping in mouthfuls of oxygen as she was finally able to breathe again.

She clutched her chest. For a moment there, she really thought that Isaac was going to kill her.

The alcohol in her stomach suddenly churned, causing a violent gag reflex due to asphyxiation.

She rushed to the washroom and threw up. After doing so made her feel much better.

Rinsing her mouth, she then lay in bed without taking a bath.

She was too drowsy and exhausted, and her eyes slowly closed as she fell asleep unwittingly.

-

The next day, when Isaac arrived at the Light Group offices, his secretary approached him, saying, "Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Gooding is asking to see you."

    “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
