Chapter 387
Irene turned toward the door to find Mick glaring at her with crimson eyes–Layla, who was standing beside him, was stunned by his reaction too.
“Mick…”
Layla put an arm around Mick’s, and he suddenly realized that he was overagitated- Layla was still with him.
However, Irene could see that he was panicking.
Why? What was he trying to hide?
Layla asked mildly, “What got you upset, Mick?”
“No, I just misheard,” Mick quickly tried to assure her. “Did I scare you?”
Layla shook her head. “I’m fine, but you don’t look too good.”
“I’m just thirsty. Could you get me something?” Mick said.
“Okay,” Layla replied.
Having diverted her away with ease, Mick turned to level a vicious glare at Irene.” You’re Isaac Jefferson’s wife?”
Irene took a step back, and kept a hand on Stephen’s desk to keep her balance. “Yes.”
Mick narrowed his eyes and started to approach her, but Stephen quickly stepped in
between them. “Calm down, Mick.”
Mick simply shoved him away. “You did this on purpose, didn’t you?”
