James had barely finished when one of the three burly men pushed him back inside the room.
Erin was huffing and she promptly snapped when she saw that. "Fuck him up!"
The three of them charged forward, and one of them landed a heavy jab on his left eye, flooring him.
Luckily, James had seen action, and quickly grabbed a chair, swinging it at the man nearest to him,
knocking him out!
While another man tried to grab him from behind, he leaped aside and kicked him squarely on the back
before making a dash outside and making his escape!
Harvey went looking for Irene right after he landed in Minerva. However, he had been knocking on her
door for quite a while, but nobody answered.
Still, he was going to call her when he noticed some sort of lifeform walking toward him.
He flinched in shock-how could someone so ugly exist?
When Irene saw him, she asked, "What are you doing here? It's so late already.”
Harvey appeared incredulous. "W-Wait, you're Irene?”
"Yeah," she replied casually as she opened the door.
Following her inside, Harvey said, "What's with that look? You scared me, y‘know-1 thought I was
seeing some sort of monster.’
"I was worried Isaac would recognize me,” Irene replied.
The instant Harvey heard Isaac's name, he asked, "You were meeting him?’
"Yep," she said, plucking off her cap and mask and heading into her washroom to clear her makeup.
Since it took her time to put on so much makeup, it took time to clear it away too.
Harvey stood outside the washroom, watching her as he asked, "You talked to him?"
Irene was focused on her own reflection on the mirror and wiping off her makeup as she continued, “I'm
now his doctor.”
"He's sick? Is it terminal?” Harvey felt schadenfreude the instant he heard that.
Irene shot him a glare. “What good is Isaac's death to you?”
"I won't have a rival to win you over," Harvey said plainly.
"I won't fall for you even if he's gone,” Irene retorted.
Harvey grabbed her wrist. "Why?"
Irene met his gaze without flinching. "The human heart is actually very small, so it doesn't have much
space for too much stuff- especially lovers. The slot in mine is taken, and I can't spare any space for
you."
She had no idea if Harvey was kidding or serious, but thought that she should make such things clear
early on.
"If you're joking, pretend I never said a thing. But if you're serious, I'm serious too.”
Harvey slowly released her hand. "You really love him that much, huh?"
Irene washed her face in silence, but it could well be an admission.
Naturally, Harvey was despondent. "Why would you leave him, then? If it's a disfigurement, you can get
reconstructive surgery after giving birth. It's not permanent..."
"I left... because he doesn't love me,” she said, holding Harvey's gaze.
Harvey's brow furrowed. "What?"
Did he mishear her?
Isaac did not love Irene?
That was impossible-how could he not? He had to be the person who suffered the most because of her
death!
‘He only kept me around because I gave him Tommy. I love him, but I don't like compromised
relationships, or to force myself on others. That's why if he doesn't love me, I won't try to tie him down
with our child.”
She put away her towel and turned to Harvey again. “It's late. I'm taking a shower before I sleep.”
She was ordering her to leave, but Harvey was left staring at her.
Why on earth was she convinced that Isaac did not love her?
Was there some misunderstanding between them?
It had to be.
‘Hello? You should be going,” Irene said, because he was not moving.
Coming to his senses, he gave Irene a solemn look.
"Sleep tight,” he said, and turned to leave.
Since there was a misunderstanding between them, he could let it persist.
This might be his last chance, and he would seize it even if it was selfish of him.
He returned to Olston Hotel-he usually stayed there whenever he visited Minerva.
In the morning, he was going to buy breakfast for Irene when he ran into someone at the entrance and
almost laughed himself
