Chapter 246
Irene was naturally relieved to have Isaac’s men standing
guard.
She headed to the elevator, when Ricky happened to arrive, appearing tense. “Where’s Tommy? Is he
better now? Can I visit him?”
Irene calmly studied Ricky’s face, intending to find a tell and perceive if his anxiety was feigned.
However, he appeared to be too good an actor–she found
nothing!
“Come with me, Ricky.” She entered the elevator and
pressed the button to head downstairs.
“Is there something you need?” Ricky asked.
“Yeah,” Irene answered quickly.
“What is it?”
“I’ll tell you later,” Irene replied.
“Okay.” Ricky did not say anything else.
When the elevator stopped, Irene left the elevator first
and headed straight to the parking lot behind the hospital, leading Ricky there.
“Irene? Why did you take me here?” Ricky asked,
uncertain.
Irene ensured that there was no one around before she answered him. “I have a question–are you sure
my mother told you that Tommy was sick?”
Ricky didn’t expect that from her and it showed on his face, but he quickly composed himself. “Y–
Yeah.”
He was too young, and his poker -face was lacking as Irene stared into his eyes, he nervously averted
his gaze.
“I had my mom promise not to tell anyone that Tommy’s sick–especially you. I know her, and she
always keeps her promise. Not to mention, she has even less reason to tell you because it concerns
Tommy.”
“S–So what?” Ricky forced a smile.
Irene held her gaze as she continued, “If I remember correctly, you seemed to know that Tommy got
sick as soon as you called me. Only my mother and myself know, and if neither of us told you, how did
you know that Tommy was sick?”
Ricky became speechless and frantic right then, and his
gaze was darting evasively.
“I…”
He was trying to explain, but stopped as if a cat got his
tongue.
“You laced Tommy’s formula milk, didn’t you?” Irene asked, now certain that Ricky was the culprit.
Ricky panicked. “No, I didn’t mean to do it… I never wanted to hurt Tommy!”
His words were almost hysterical, but it was clear he was feeling guilty.
Irene’s demeanor turned cold. “You’re our father’s only
son, and I would’ve given you the family estate in its entirety without taking anything. Why did you think
I let you take management over Spencer Holdings? Why did you have to do this, Ricky?!”
“I didn’t do anything! Really!” Ricky was still trying to deny it as vehemently as he could.
That was when Irene suddenly whipped out a scalpel and pressed it against his chest. “I’m a doctor,
and I can reach your heart with pinpoint position. Don’t think that this scalpel is too small to inflict any
damage–I can ensure that you bleed out with just a little push, even if the
hospital is right here!”
She was naturally prepared when she called Ricky out here
it was the reason why she brought him out here alone
in the first place.
Ricky was petrified. “S–Stop…!”
“Are you going to talk now?” Irene pressed.
Seeing that the cat was out of the bag, Ricky cried, “I–I
didn’t want to do it… Believe me…!”
