Chapter 426
lan snorted and laughed icily. “You can’t even if you want to. Don’t forget that I have the upper hand here.
“No, we are on equal terms right now,” Irene growled in return. “If you hurt Tommy, my mom is going to make you suffer. You can’t lay a finger on them even if you have them, and while you have leverage against me, I’m only complying because I would rather they not get hurt at all.”
Her retort only drew more laughter from lan. “No, you’re mistaken. Isaac killed my mother, left my father a cripple, and took Light Group away from me. I have nothing, and therefore fear nothing-all I want right now is for Isaac to have a taste of losing everything too.”
Irene panicked right then-there was just no arguing against a man who had lost everything.
Since there was nothing holding him back, lan was truly capable of anything.
And that makes him utterly terrifying.
After she hung up, Irene turned toward James and asked, “Did you get anything?”
James shook his head. “He probably expected us to track him and prepared accordingly. There’s no fix on
his position, and he knew enough to pick a time when Mr. Jefferson isn’t around.”
“Get in the mansion for now,” Irene told them. “Think of something as fast as you can.”
“What about you?” James asked.
“He told me to get in an MPV with the registration plate 90026. I’ll turn on the GPS on my phone once I get in, so that you can track me…”
“No.” James refused squarely. “That’s too dangerous, and I won’t be able to explain myself to Mr. Jefferson if anything happens to you!”
Irene held his gaze as she told him, “Ian Jefferson has Tommy, and he’s not afraid to get killed or reprisals at all. What if he hurts my mom and Tommy if I refuse him? Do you think I can bear losing them. both? And do you really think Isaac won’t blame you if we lose Tommy?!”
