    Chapter 780


    Irene forgot how to react right then as she spaced out, allowing Isaac to kiss her as much as he


    wanted.


    Irene slowly softened, her temper calming.


    After a long while, Isaac released her, and her lips were bright red like peaches that were just soaked in


    water.She lowered her gaze.


    "What time will you leave work?"


    "Maybeter.I have a meeting at six," he said.


    Irene checked her wristwatch —it was almost six.


    "I''ll wait."


    "Okay," Isaac said.


    Irene then settled herself on the couch and started reading a book she picked randomly.


    Isaac picked up his coffee and sat beside her.


    "Let''s salvage your image on another asion." Irene hated the mere mention of that.


    "Fine," she said, seemingly resigning herself since it was pointless now.


    "Though they''d think less of you since I left a bad impression, believing that you have poor taste,


    picking a woman who only thinks about getting frisky. I''m no domestic goddess anyway, so they can


    say whatever they like."


    "That''s the spirit." Isaac chuckled.


    "It''s their opinion, so let them be. Now, have some coffee to calm down."


    Irene had actually let it go, but was slightly irked again at Isaac''s words.


    "Go to your meeting already. Quit hovering around me—it''s annoying."


    Isaac gave her a peck on the cheek then.


    "Alright, I''m going.Don''t want to annoy you."


    Irene caught his wrist as he stood up.


    "Make it quick.We should head home soon."


    "Okay," Issac replied.


    All the books Isaac had were aboutmerce, so she fell asleep soon enough from disinterest.She


    slepttest night and woke early, and did not nap in the afternoon to finish work earlier.


    As drowsiness took her, she put down the book andy down on the couch to get morefortable,


    eventually dozing off without knowing it.


    After Isaac ended the meeting and returned to his office, he found Irene curled up on the couch.


    He took off his jacket and put it over her when the phone on his desk rang.He got up and answered it


    while Irene stirred.


    Rubbing her eyes, she looked up to see Isaac behind his desk, answering the call.


    She had no idea what the other end said, while Isaac hung up after a few brief words.


    "Is your meeting over?" Irene asked.


    "Yeah," he replied, putting down his phone.


    "Did the ringing wake you?" Irene shook her head.


    "No."


    "Let''s go home."


    She got to her feet and followed him outside.


    On the way home, Isaac appeared hesitant to mention something.


    "Just spit it already," Irene eventually told him.


    "There''s this event in Franconia which requires ady''spany. I know you''re busy, but..."


    "When?" Irene asked.


    "Friday," he replied.


    Irene checked her phone and considered it.


    "It''s Tuesday. There are three more days, so I think I can free up two days if I bring forward my


    schedule." Isaac held her hand.


    "Thanks."


    Irene smiled faintly at him.


    "I thought we shouldn''t be too polite when we''re married?"


    And she was just fulfilling her duty as a wife as well.


    Leaning against his arm, she said, "I''ll do my best to be a good wife and a good mother from now on."


    Isaac smiled.


    "You always were a good wife."


    Irene looked up at him then.

    She had more or less seen through his entricities by now, and what followed was definitely nothing


    good.


    "What are you getting at?" she asked.
