Chapter 28


    Isaac merely nodded without breaking his stride.


    Once he was gone, Stevie hurried over to Robin''s side and whispered, “Are you sure this will work?”


    Robin scoffed. “No matter how cold-hearted he is, he is still a man with natural needs and desires. How can he remain


    unaffected in the presence of such a beautiful woman? At the very least, his body would react and tell him what he truly wants.


    His heart will eventually keep up in time.”


    But the butler wasn’t convinced.


    “We both know how vtile his temper is. I’m sure he’s already figured out that you set them up tonight.”Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “Well, how do you expect them to fall in love if they don’t spend some time together? He may not listen to me when he is out and


    about, but in this mansion, my word is thew.” Robin was huffing indignantly, but he did feel a pang of guilt for his machinations.


    “| don’t have much time left,” he added in a more serious tone. “He needs to have someone beside him, someone to take care of


    him.


    “Of course. I’m certain that the young master wille to understand your good intentions.”


    Robin grabbed his cane, and Stevie helped him retire to his room.


    In Isaac''s bedroom.


    Cam couldn’t refuse when Stevie had brought her here.


    “This is Isaac’s childhood bedroom,” he had told her.


    “It has been redecorated once.”


    The room''s decor was vastly different from the ones at the vi. This one had a dark interior; everything was ck or gray.


    Cam imagined that even the meager beam of sunlight through the window would not be enough to brighten the air in this


    room.


    She let her eyes wander around, and they ultimatelynded on a dainty little box sitting on a shelf. It stood out like a sore thumb,


    mainly because it looked like something a girl would own, not a cold young man.


    Cam stepped closer and reached out to take a Look.


    “What are you doing?” A cold voice suddenly came from behind her.


    Cam was so startled that she jumped, identally knocking the box off the shelf. It fell on the floor with a resounding thud.


    Isaac shot her a murderous re.


    Cam immediately panicked, knowing that she had messed up.


    “ sorry. | didn’t mean to... It was an ident.”


    She was already bending over to retrieve the box. But before she could even touch it, Isaac grabbed her hand in a painful grip.


    Cam winced in pain, her face and neck breaking out in cold sweat. His hold was so tight that for a moment, Cam feared he


    would break her bones.


    “Don''t touch it with your filthy hands!” Isaac roared, his eyes burning with rage.


    He forcefully threw Cam aside, causing her to fall back and hit her head against the corner of a nearby cab.
