Chapter 597
Isaac walked up to Irene and gently gathered her into his arm, asking quietly, "What's on your mind?"
Irene actually thought that he had left, but it turned out that he was waiting for her.
"Aren't you a bold one? Not worried that Debbie would see you?" she asked.
Isaac was still holding her as they got in his car. "She's going to be busy."
Meanwhile, Debbie the secretary was trying on a bridal gown at a boutique and reveling in the joy of it.
After all, Isaac had personally ordered it tailor made for her, and she now believed that he was now seeing her as a woman, even accepting her.
She expressly brought the set of diamond jewelry, virtually parading it to the looks of envy of everyone around her.
"It really suits you," the assistant at the boutique flattered.
Having put on the bridal gown and the diamond jewelry set, Debbie admired her own reflection in the mirror and grinned broadly at the assistant's words.
She could not help feeling buoyed-she enjoyed this feeling of being served and fawned over.
Meanwhile, the assistant was still showering her flattery. "Also, shouldn't we address you as Mrs. Jefferson now?"
Debbie's grin broadened further, but she said, "Not yet-that could wait until after our wedding."
"But the bridal gown is ready. Shouldn't it be soon?" the assistant asked.
Debbie lifted a brow and said proudly, "Of course."
"Congratulations!" the assistant exclaimed.
Debbie reared her chin proudly and smugly-all her schemes and hard work had certainly paid off!
Meanwhile, Irene was lounging lazily in Isaac's car.
She was already worn out, and the surgery left her further exhausted.
"Does Debbie know that you rescued Ricky?"
"No," Isaac replied with a cold look. "She would already be dead if we had the antidote for Tommy."
