Chapter 129
“Divorce you?!”
Isaac’s cheek was twitching as crimson fury flared in his eyes.
He really wanted to gouge her heart out and see what it was made of-how could she be so heinous?!
“No, you’ll never get a divorce. Your soul belongs to me even if you die!”
Irene felt like she could lose her mind just then.
She tried to give up on her spite and have a heart-to-heart talk with him, but he was messing around with other women! She felt so stupid for almost believing that he actually loved her! “Fine! I’ll announce to the world tomorrow that I’m your wife, and I cheated on you all the time with different men, even getting pregnant! I’ll make you get sick of me!”
Isaac almost choked from that just then.
She was really killing him!
“Just try it!!!!
“”You think I won’t?!” Irene retorted with equal staunchness.
It was going nowhere, so Isaac took a deep breath to compose himself. “How could you be so callous?”
At the same time, Irene’s chest was heaving from sheer frustration. Did he really just say that? When he had toyed with her feelings?!
And now he is acting like he cared again!
That was when they heard a knock on the front door, and Mrs. Watson called out, “Mr. Jefferson? A Ms. York is asking for you.”
Irene turned towards the door. Ms. York?
On the other hand, Isaac frowned. He remembered telling Stan to get rid of her! Why was she showing up here now?
“Tell her to leave!” he barked coldly.
Kathy was actually at the door, and did not leave even though she heard Isaac. “I am just here to deliver a document, sir.”
Isaac frowned, but Irene thought that he was still pretending.
He even had a hand on her waist, and now he was acting as if there was nothing between them?
She really wanted to tell him that he would make a good actor just then!
There was no telling if she was mocking Isaac or being jealous, leaving him a little speechless just then.
Lowering his gaze, he asked quietly, “Are you jealous?”
“Nope.” Irene naturally refused to admit it.
That was when Isaac suddenly had a thought. Was she being cold and contemptible because she had seen him with Kathy and got upset?
His gloomy mood eased considerably, and he smiled, “If you say so.”
His reaction left Irene puzzled. Why is he being so volatile? She simply could not get a read on him!
Meanwhile, Kathy was left standing there, feeling out of place.
Isaac was even acting as if she did not exist.
To draw their attention, she said, “Mr. Jefferson, the documents?”
“Put it on the table, and you can leave,” he said flatly.
“Of course,” she said evenly, and after she did so, she asked, “So, are we going to the hotel today?”
Isaac’s face darkened at her words!
