Chapter 444
Isaac stared at the letter for a long while without moving, as if he was frozen stiff.
He was simply staggered... To think that Yvaine Lynd had written such a letter to Irene!
He certainly never expected his mother to remember everything but not come back to him because she fell in love with Mick Gooding!
Haha... the irony! His mother fell in love with another man. Did she even think what that made of his father?
His fingers clenched, and the paper crumpled in his grasp.
Stephen was mentioned in the letter...
Rising to his feet, he stormed toward Stephen's office.
Stephen looked up the instant he opened his office door and quickly rose to his feet when he saw that it was Isaac.
While he had weathered his fair share of drama with patients and their families over the years, he felt pure, gripping fear around Isaac.
Perhaps because he was feeling guilty and hid a lot of things from the man, he did not dare to meet Isaac's gaze.
Even as he kept his eyes elsewhere, he asked, "Is there a problem, Mr. Jefferson?"
Isaac remained quiet, and he slowly and steadily walked toward Stephen.
Stephen felt a suffocating pressure weighing down on Isaac each step he took, and the air in his small office suddenly seemed thinner.
"What is it?” Stephen asked anxiously, but that was when he noticed the letter Isaac was holding, and sharply spotted Mick Gooding's name on it.
What?!
He quickly looked up at Isaac just then, murmuring, "What..."
"How did Yvaine Lynd die?" Isaac asked very quietly, but anyone listening attentively could hear that there was rage in his words that could erupt at any moment.
He was certainly smart enough to catch the gist of the letter.
On the other hand, while Stephen did not know how much Isaac knew or if he found out about everything, the fact that he came to demand an explanation made it obvious that he knew certain facts.
With Mick brought overseas to recover and Irene herself abroad too, it was time he took responsibility.
