Chapter 473
Isaac went to Mr. Lockwood's residence without a pause.
Following the stone path, Isaac arrived at the resting area of the golf course.
A few bodyguards in black suits stood at the side. Vernon stood upright like a javelin not far away. He stood still with his back facing him as he stared at the situation on the golf course.
Isaac followed Vernon's back and glanced at the court. Henderson was playing basketball with someone inside.
"Mr. Vernon Lockwood," Isaac called out.
Vernon turned around. His dark eyes were no longer as indifferent as usual. This time, he stared at Isaac a few more times. Isaac lowered his eyes slightly and allowed Vernon to size him up. There was no emotion on his slightly rough face.
"My adoptive father is playing basketball. It might take a while. Wait for a while," Vernon said.
He pointed to a table and chair at the side and added, "Sit down." Isaac walked over and sat down.
Isaac thought that Vernon would ask about Yvette, but to his surprise, Vernon did not mention anything about her.
As usual, he had a cold expression on his face and his mind was wandering as if he did not care about anything.
Both of them had cold personalities, so they fell into silence.
Laughter could be heard in the stadium from time to time.
After about twenty minutes, Henderson and two men walked over.
Vernon and Isaac both stood up.
Vernon did not say anything.
"Mr. Lockwood,' Isaac called out.
Henderson was in his fifties and had some white hair at his temples. Still, his figure was very good owing to years of exercising. One could see the beautiful muscles under his clothes.
In a tracksuit, he walked up to Isaac with a smile. Due to the height difference, he raised his head slightly to look at Isaac.
Isaac lowered his head slightly and dropped his eyes to avoid his gaze.
' Isaac!' Henderson emphasized his name and said, "I've seen you before. I remember that you're that tough guy who laughs at death when fighting!"
Isaac said, "Mr. Lockwood, you flatter me. I'm just doing my part."
Henderson froze for a while before he suddenly reached out and patted Isaac's shoulder heavily. "Well said!"
He turned around with a smile and looked at the other two. "Jasper, Harlow, did you hear that? My subordinate is promising!"
"People who don't care about their lives in a fight are usually either crazy or determined to get something," Jasper said with a smile. He looked at Isaac with interest.
Harlow also smiled and praised him. He said in broken Lucsian, "I like crazy guys!" Isaac was expressionless.
Henderson extended an index finger and waved it repeatedly. 'No, no, no. He's not a crazy guy!"
After saying that, he looked at Isaac and said, "Isaac, I heard that you know the lady from the Barker family?"
Isaac's pupils constricted as he tried his best to suppress his nervous body reactions. He nodded nonchalantly and said, "Yes, I do." Henderson stared at him and said, "Just know her? I heard that there's something between you and that woman!"
Isaac raised his eyes and looked straight at Henderson. He said uneasily, "Mr. Lockwood, you know about such a trifle?"
'Trifle? Haha, yes, it's no big deal. Don't be nervous. Tell me, how's your relationship?'
Henderson asked with a smile, then looked straight into Isaac's eyes.
Isaac did not avoid his gaze. A trace of smugness and disdain flickered in his eyes. "That woman is quite interesting. I saved her life in the past, and she fell in love with me.
"I think it's not a bad idea to play with that kind of young lady. I just put her on the bench, but...
"I'm afraid it's over now. The Barker family already knows about her relationship with me. I guess we won't have anything to do with each other."
Isaac's words revealed a trace of regret and slight boredom.
Henderson stared at him for a while and smiled. "Young man..."
