Chapter 269
Stan had to pass Quincy’s message to Isaac, who stopped and turned to stare at him. “What?!”
Stan repeated Quincy’s message, and asked, “What would she want with Kathy?”
Isaac held out his hand. “Give me the phone.”
Stan did so, and he asked coldly, “What do you want?”
Quincy went straight to the point. “I heard Kathy saved you from drowning that one time. Everything you owned now would’ve been my son’s if you died back then–did you think I’d spare her after she ruined my schemes?”
“What do you want?” Isaac repeated.
“Cutting to the chase already? Good. Since Kathy saved you, she must be important to you, right? So let’s make an exchange–Kathy for my son. How about that?”
After Quincy had met Kathy, she found out that Kathy was fond of Isaac, and they had agreed to work together.
As she carried out her scheme, Quincy remembered that she could use this to force Isaac to make an exchange, and save her own son.
“Your son isn’t with me,” Isaac said, while giving Stan a look–the latter understood and quietly left to track down Quincy.
“Oh, you’re smart, Isaac–but I’m not stupid either. Don’t interfere, and I can save my son without issue.”
“What if I said no?” Isaac growled.
“Then my people will take their turns having their way with Kathy York. Could you really bear to see that happen? She’s your savior. Are you really not going to lift a finger?”
She breathed ‘your savior‘ with emphasis–she had always denied pushing Isaac into that pond since there was no evidence against her, and now, she was basically bragging about it.
Isaac naturally knew it was her, but she remained untouched because of Henry.
Now that the truce was broken, there was no reason for her to hide it.
