Chapter 274
Isaac was in the photo, along with Kathy!
They were standing outside a hospital ward, with Kathy holding the hem of Isaac’s jacket–he had turned around, so his expression could not be seen.
Irene did not flip out when she saw the photo, since the fact that she was sent it made one thing clear: someone wanted her to see it.
Their objective was also obvious–they wanted a misunderstanding between her and Isaac.
Thus, Irene refused to jump to conclusions and decided to listen to what Isaac had to say instead.
Though she blackened the screen and turned to look outside the car, her mood soured by the minute.
Suddenly, she seemed to forget entirely about Ricky. The photo was all she could think about.
Although the rational part of her mind insisted that someone was deliberately attempting to drive a wedge between her and Isaac, the emotional side of her mind was still worried.
After all, Kathy was beautiful… And why was she tugging at Isaac’s clothes?
Nonetheless, she was soon back at Rose Garden.
Tommy was wide awake, and Mrs. Watson was carrying him around the living room.
Irene washed her hands before taking Tommy off Mrs. Watson, and the baby nestled against her collarbone, as if knowing that she was his mother.
Irene’s heart almost melted right then. She leaned in to give him a peck on the cheek as warmth unfurled in her heart.
Life was indeed a miracle.
She played with Tommy for some time. Though he eventually got hungry, he fell asleep halfway through his bottle of milk.
Irene tucked him in his crib. In the evening, she headed to the kitchen.
Mrs. Watson was already there. “You don’t have to come, ma’am. Just leave this to me.”
Irene smiled. “I wanted to cook tonight. I think Isaac will come back soon.”
Mrs. Watson was naturally smart enough to catch Irene’s hint that she wanted to cook for Isaac, and so quickly said, “I’ll help.”
