Chapter 414
Irene took the note and asked, “Who was the sender?”
The attendant shook his head, because he had instructions beforehand. “I can’t say.”
“Alright, thank you.” Irene said, refraining from making things difficult for him.
After the attendant left, Irene unfurled the piece of paper and read it.
[26th floor, Room 502. There’s something you must know.]
Once she read it, she crumpled it into a ball and threw it into a trash can nearby, but did not land.
Something mysterious and unsigned like that would be nothing good–she was not stupid enough to answer such a call.
At the same time, the ceremony was starting.
As the mob around Isaac dispersed, he went to sit beside Irene.
“You’re a busy man,” she said.
He was just here to attend a wedding, but he was the one who got mobbed.
She took another sip of her juice and then put her glass down rather heavily.
Isaac glanced at the glass and asked, “Are you upset?”
Irene shook her head firmly–she certainly would not dare to get upset at him now, just as she had no reason to because he was just socializing.
Even so, she felt so tiny as she stayed at his side.
Looking up on stage, she said, “The bride is young and pretty.”
Isaac’s eyes were fixed on her, and did not even look up. “You’re prettier.”
Irene stared at him. Was he teasing her?
