Chapter 242
Isaac smiled. "You’re very rich."
Sheryl Harris was sitting at the dining table, smiling as she watched the two—she was pleased that her daughter found her happiness, and that Tommy now has a family.
"Come sit already," she urged—it wouldn’t do if the food got cold.
Meanwhile, Isaac told Stan across the phone, "Contact me right away if you find anything unusual about Ricky."
He hung up once Stan confirmed his orders, and headed to the dining table with Irene.
Tommy was asleep, so they didn’t have to mind him.
Sheryl was eagerly pushing food and soup to Isaac—she appeared happier with him the more they interacted.
"I'm not sure what you like, so I cooked a little something. Don't hold back."
Isaac wasn’t uneasy—the mood around the dining table actually suited him.
It had been a long while since he felt at home.
"Once Irene and I registered our marriage, please pick a date for us. I wish to give her a wedding," he said, offering Sheryl assurance while acknowledging and confirming his relationship with Irene.
Sheryl didn’t expect him to mention that. Both of them were reluctant to get married before. Now that they were together, they should tie the knot.
Smiling and nodding, Sheryl said, "Of course. I will definitely pick a fine date for you."
"Thankyou," Isaac said.
"We're family now—there's no need to be so polite." Sheryl was certainly happy Isaac was being so thoughtful. It was obvious that he cared about Irene.
Even if things did not start ideally for them, the outcome was perfect: a child, a family of three.
Sheryl found herself smiling blissfully.
