Seth had never been slapped, and his right cheek certainly stung.
Nonetheless, Irene asked icily, "Does it hurt?" "That's not the point,” Seth quickly retorted. "I'm a man,
and I can take a slap, butyou're hurting my dignity here. How could I do this so casually..."
Irene's slap was certainly loud, drawing much attention and leaving him blushing.
"We're in a public place. Can't you see that everyone is watching?"
Irene rose to his feet then. “If you were actually a fellow conspirator and not a tool, it would be a knife
and not a slap.”
Seth turned pale, finally realizing the gravity of the situation, and he asked, ’ What did Harvey do?”
Irene ignored him and simply strode out.
Seth gave chase and caught her. "Come on, just tell me-"
Irene shook him off. "Let me go”
Her almond eyes were glaring as if spitting fire-it was the first time she flipped out after what Harvey
did.
Still, she soon quelled her flaring emotion and said with utter coolness,” Don't ever show up around me
again."
Seth was left standing there stupidly, watching her in disbelief.
In his mind, she was still the girl next door whose family had domestic issues because of her father's
affair.She was always sharp and prudent as a child, but he never saw her act out as badly as this!
What on earth did Harvey do to upset her so much?
He whipped out his phone and dialed Harvey's number, but Harvey was not answering.
With that plan failing, he returned his phone to his pocket-he could still ask Irene, but before he could
move up, he saw a car stopping by the road with Isaac alighting.
The man had always been hostile with him, so Seth stopped in his tracks.
Irene was on top of a flight of stairs when she was Isaac. There was a brief flash of pain in her eyes,
but she quickly composed herself and headed down.
Their eyes soon met.
Isaac appeared more anxious than she was and he opened the door for her. "Get in."
Irene entered and Isaac returned to the driver's seat, even leaning over her to help her with her
seatbelt.She lowered her eyes and did not move an inch.
Soon, they drove off steadily up on the road, neither of them saying a word.
The car was silent as they both tried to act as if nothing happened, but they were certainly not calm.
Irene wanted to talk, but she did not know how to start.
Eventually, she turned away, her eyes damp and lowered as she rasped,” You know, don't you?”
Isaac did not answer while keeping his expression flawlessly under wraps, as if he really did not know
what she was talking about.
Still, Irene knew right then that he knew.
"I don't know how to face you.” She closed her eyes. "I couldn't feel a thing, and I don't know if I was..."
In reality, she never felt anything weird with her body after she woke up, and she knew her body well
after being with Isaac for so long.
But even if she did not feel it, she was stripped naked, and she did not even want to imagine what
Harvey did to her while she was unconscious.
"Anyway, I've said yes to Dennis Turner. I've even done the procedures to succeed him.”
She was suddenly happy that she did not reject Dennis's offer-she would still have something to bank
on, at least.
"If that's what you want to do," he replied.
Soon, they returned to the hilltop mansion, and as Isaac alighted, she called out to him, "Isaac."
