    Irene did want to weasel her way out of that and deliberately miss the point.


    Judging from Isaac’s reaction, however, she was not getting out of this if she did not exin herself.


    Clearing her throat, she said, “So… Lulu and Zachary were fighting because Zachary cheated on her.


    Lulu was feeling terrible, so I drank with her… and ended up having too much to drink.”


    “Why was Harvey with you?”


    That was what Isaac cared most about, so Irene continued, “Lulu wanted to get drunk, but I couldn’t


    think of any ces. Harvey suggested that nightclub, and we used his private box…”


    Her voice trailed off at thest part.


    “And?”


    “And I kept Harvey outside, while Lulu and I drank inside. Check the cameras if you don’t believe me.”


    She might have drunk too much yesterday, but she still remembered everything before she got drunk.


    Bzzt-


    Isaac’s phone suddenly vibrated on the table, and he picked it up to see that it was another photo from


    Harvey.


    It was from one of the nightclub’s cameras, and it showed Harvey having his hands around Irene.


    At the time, she was heading to the washroom but tripped, and Harvey caught her in time.


    However, in the absence of context, it was a photo of them being very close. Moreover, from that angle,


    it looked more like he was just hugging than keeping her on her feet.


    As Isaac scowled visibly, Irene kept quiet and craned her head for a look… time seemed to freeze right


    then, just as she scowled too.


    “I just tripped over a table, and he caught me in time,” she quickly exined, while cursing Harvey in


    her mind.


    Why would he send that to Isaac? Was he crazy? Had he not messed with her enough?


    “I was drunk…”


    As she kept trying to exin, however, Isaac suddenly got out of bed.


    “Isaac…”


    “I’ll get to the bottom of this.”


    With that, he took off his sleeping gown right in front of Irene, revealing his chiseled, muscr chest.


    His figure was like a sculpture by a master craftsman–wless and impable.


    He kept her back to Irene as he changed in silence.


    She would actually have felt more secure if he had flipped out at her or argued.


    His silence simply showed that he was really upset and concerned about the matter.


    Irene pursed her lips—she did not mean to do it, not to mention that she had no idea he had already


    returned to the country.


    “You never called when you went abroad. Did you know how much it hurts?” she snapped as she


    stared at


    Chaos in


    him from the back.


    *And did you call me?” Isaac asked in return.


    Was he not hurting too?


    Irene was silenced right then–he had a point.


    “I was busy… And I just discovered something important-”


    “I know you are. You don’t have to keep telling me–it’s annoying.”


    With that, Isaac strode out of the room, even as he remembered what she told him: she could set him


    aside for the sake of her career, and that she believed that he only cared about money and power.


    What did she take him for? Why did she keep emphasizing that she was very busy as if it only applied


    to her? Did he look like he had been goofing off?


    Irene was left at a loss for words, and stood where she was for a while and wondered what he meant.


    Nheless, she quickly got changed and left for work without breakfast.


    She had done nothing wrong, and she could not do a thing if he still doubted her.


    Exining would also be futile, and he can investigate as much as he liked.


    Naturally, Irene was feeling grumpy as she left, and it showed on her face.


    When she arrived at the hospital, she inadvertently knocked into someone.


    “Sorry,” she said in apology without even looking up.


    “Wait,” the other person told her, and she finally looked up.
