Chapter 473
James had barely finished when one of the three burly men pushed him back inside the room.
Erin was huffing and she promptly snapped when she saw that. "Fuck him up!"
The three of them charged forward, and one of them landed a heavy jab on his left eye, flooring him.
Luckily, James had seen action, and quickly grabbed a chair, swinging it at the man nearest to him, knocking him out!
While another man tried to grab him from behind, he leaped aside and kicked him squarely on the back before making a dash outside and making his escape!
Harvey went looking for Irene right after he landed in Minerva. However, he had been knocking on her door for quite a while, but nobody answered.
Still, he was going to call her when he noticed some sort of lifeform walking toward him.
He flinched in shock-how could someone so ugly exist?
When Irene saw him, she asked, "What are you doing here? It's so late already."
Harvey appeared incredulous. "W-Wait, you're Irene?"
"Yeah," she replied casually as she opened the door.
Following her inside, Harvey said, "What's with that look? You scared me, y‘know-1 thought I was seeing some sort of monster.’
"I was worried Isaac would recognize me," Irene replied.
The instant Harvey heard Isaac's name, he asked, "You were meeting him?’
"Yep," she said, plucking off her cap and mask and heading into her washroom to clear her makeup.
Since it took her time to put on so much makeup, it took time to clear it away too.
Harvey stood outside the washroom, watching her as he asked, "You talked to him?"
Irene was focused on her own reflection on the mirror and wiping off her makeup as she continued, "I'm now his doctor."
"He's sick? Is it terminal?" Harvey felt schadenfreude the instant he heard that.
Irene shot him a glare. "What good is Isaac's death to you?"
"I won't have a rival to win you over," Harvey said plainly.
"I won't fall for you even if he's gone," Irene retorted.
Harvey grabbed her wrist. "Why?"
