Chapter 583
The chauffeur entered.
Everyone appeared to be disappointed, perhaps believing that Isaac had arrived.
The chauffeur did a double take in turn, and was left wondering if his timing was poor and led to their disappointment.
He stood there, suddenly unsure if he should step inside or leave.
is there a problem?" Irene asked.
The chauffeur hurried to her and handed her a cellphone. "This was left in the car."
Irene took it and saw that it was her own phone.
The chauffeur then added, "If there's anything else you need, ma'am, I'll be right outside."
"Yeah," Irene replied-everyone there were people Isaac trusted.
On the other hand, Sheryl was not continuing her rant about Isaac from before after being interrupted.
In the end, she was just feeling upset over her daughter and her grandson's situation. All she could do right then was to care for them as best as she could, not to mention that Irene would be feeling the worst out of all of them.
Even if she appeared calm, Sheryl could tell that Irene was faking it.
Walking up to her and holding her hands out to take Irene off her hands, she said, "Let me take him to his room."
Irene shook her head. 'TH do it!"
As Sheryl quietly pulled away, Irene lowered her gaze at her own son, her tears welling with tears just then.
Debbie did not want to see anything that connected the Rose Garden apartment to Irene, and so, she thoroughly refurbished every inch of the residence until it was completely unrecognizable from before.
When that was done, she called Isaac over and asked, "What do you think? You like what I've done with the place?"
Isaac's gaze was distant. "She's gone, and I agreed to give you this place..."
"I'll give you the antidote for your son-but not now."
Debbie sat beside him then, looking him in the eyes as she breathed every word heavily. "You'll get it once you hold a wedding to marry me."
She then gently laid her head on his shoulder, "Isaac, I've been by your side for years. Do you think I wouldn't know your methods after so long? How could I give it to you when I haven't gotten what I want?"
Then, her tone changed sharply. "Since you're marrying me, don't you think you should give me that set of diamond jewelry in your safe?"
She wanted to recoup the dignity she lost when James Cross caught her red-handed, while taking everything that once belonged to Irene!
Isaac rose to his feet then, holding her gaze as he growled, "Don't push your luck-like you said, you know my methods. I'll satisfy all our demands, but you're going to have to show me that you actually have an antidote."
Debbie simply smiled. "Would you let me stay if I showed you?"
She knew very well that once she revealed where she hid it-or if Isaac somehow caught on to where she got it-he would do everything he could to get his hands on it.
