Chapter 594
However, it was clear that Tommy was not sleeping soundly-his eyelashes were damp from tears.
Irene looked heartbroken.
She wished she was the one suffering.
As she quietly lay down beside her son, Sheryl brought her a bowl of warm soup and said, "Drink this before you sleep."
Irene did so, and lay down to sleep beside Tommy.
Sheryl left with the bowl and did not impose, but Irene could not sleep soundly, waking up repeatedly.
As she opened her muddled eyes for a third time, she decided that she could not fall asleep and she quietly got up.
Seeing her leave the room, Sheryl sighed. "You could sleep a while longer."
It hurt Sheryl's heart to watch Irene wearing herself out, but she could not talk Irene out of it when Tommy's life was on the line. Moreover, being busy would help Irene forget about Isaac too.
"I still have to go to the lab," Irene told her.
Sheryl could only nod-right now, the only thing she could do for her daughter was to take good care of Tommy.
Along the way, however, Irene spotted Isaac's car, and it was headed to the hospital.
Irene was puzzled. Why the hospital?
Did something happen?
As such, she told the chauffeur to follow, and they soon arrived at the entrance.
Irene alighted.
"Wait for me here," she told the chauffeur. She strode into the lobby, where she saw Ricky on a stretcher.
"Isaac!" she called out when she spotted him. "What happened here?"
Isaac turned, surprised to see her there.
Still, his gaze soon darkened as he quietly said, "We were caught by surprise when we tried to get him out."
