Chapter 255
Isaac could never resist Irene when she was being so charming.
Smiling begrudgingly, he said, “Fine.”
Irene beamed, and he lifted a brow. He asked, “Are you really that happy about this?”
“I just wanted to see what she’s up to,” Irene said.
Isaac turned to study her–she was as indomitable as she was a risk–taker, but he liked that about her.
He never cared for women who were too soft, something which Irene was not.
She was actually tough and smart, but she wasn’t hard as nails–her body was just so soft that he didn’t want to let her go whenever he had her in his arms.
She certainly was the best of both worlds.
They soon arrived at a mall, and Irene got a trolley once they alighted from the car.
Mrs. Watson had always been making Isaac’s meals, and all his other needs were seen by other personnel too–he had therefore never been to a mall himself.
Since he wasn’t used to it, he stayed quiet as he watched Irene and followed her around, eager to stay close and so he wouldn’t be worried about losing her.
Irene took his hand with her free hand, asking quietly, “Never been to malls much?”
Isaac nodded, but was not about to give in. “Rarely.”
Irene laughed. “Just say you’ve never been. You’re a Jefferson, and people see to your needs since you’re a child. You don’t have to hide the fact that you’ve never done this.”
Isaac gave her hand a squeeze, asking quietly, “Do you really find that funny?”
“…Alright, it’s not funny.” Irene gave in right away.
Isaac gave her a look. She had always been smart with him, teasing him and then giving up soon after–there was no way he could bring himself to punish her.
