    Chapter 278


    “I’m not…” Irene denied it at first, but soon became


    silent for a while.


    Eventually, she admitted, “Yeah, I don’t want you to go.”


    Isaac loved that she was being clingy.


    “Okay,” he replied quickly without hesitation.


    That actually left Irene doubtful.


    Was it possible that she misunderstood him?


    After all, he really loved Tommy.


    “What’s in your mind?” Isaac reached out to gather her in


    her arms while she was left conflicted.


    Irene evaded him by instinct even though she didn’t mean to her suspicion of him getting it on with


    Kathy made her repulsed by the notion of being intimate with


    him.


    As Isaac’s hands were left hanging mid–air, she quickly tried to divert his attention. “Hmm… Where’s


    Tommy?”


    Isaac nced at the bed, where their son was sleeping


    soundly. It looked like Tommy wasn’t about to wake up


    anytime soon.


    He had actually noticed that Irene was being weird, but did not point it out. Even so, he calmly lowered


    his hands. and pinched her button nose. “I won’t get upset with you.

    Irene pretended to wince and shot him a re. “You’re such a bully.”


    Isaac checked the time. “Go back to bed. I’m getting a drink from the living room.”


    Irene nodded, and he stared at her for a while before leaving the bedroom.


    He sat on the couch, picked up the phone on the table and


    dialed a number, which was soon answered.


    “Mr. Jefferson?” A sleepy voice asked from the other end.


    “Come over right now,” Isaac said.


    “Yes, sir.”


    Isaac hung up and leaned into the couch, appearing tired


    as he rubbed the spot between his brows.


    Soon, Jimmy the chauffeur entered the front door.


    “Mr. Jefferson.”


    Isaac slowly looked up but otherwise did not move. Where did she gost night?”

    Jimmy lowered his head awkwardly. “She told me not to


    say…”


    “What?” Isaac growled, raising a brow in clear


    dissatisfaction.


    Jimmy gave in right away–it was not as if he wasn’t trustworthy, but Isaac was the one paying him, and


    he had to answer as he was Isaac’s employee. “A–A hospital.


    “Which one?” Isaac asked, though he had an idea.


    “Evenal.” Jimmy replied.


    Isaac closed his eyes. “I see. You can go now.‘

    “Yes, sir,” Jimmy said, and left.


    Isaac sighed lengthily, and slowly got up, returning to the


    bedroom.


    He opened the door to find Irene lying on her side,


    staring at Tommy.


    Isaac walked in and scoop up the baby in his arms.


    “What are you doing?” Irene eximed softly in surprise. “You’re going to wake him.”


    “I’ll keep it down,” Isaac said, and left.


    Irene got off bed, following him without caring how she looked just then. “Where are you taking him?”


    “To Mrs. Watson.”


    Irene caught her arm. “It’s almost morning, anyway. He’ll wake up soon.”


    “No, I’m leaving him with Mrs. Watson,” he insisted with a serious look. “We need to talk.”


    Irene released Tommy, quietly approving Isaac’s gesture.


    She stood by the door as Isaac left Tommy to Mrs. Watson’s care. Isaac soon returned to Irene.


    “What are we going to talk about?” she asked.


    Isaac did not answer, however, and instead grabbed her slender form, pulled her back into their room,


    and shut


    the door with a bang.


    Irene shoved at him. “What are you doing?!”


    Once more, Isaac didn’t answer, and simply belted her


    with kisses.


    However, Irene was feeling too ufortable to get


    intimate with him.
