Chapter 60
There was a single night light staying lit within the ward, but it was quite dim. Still, Isaac ensured that Irene was sound asleep before closing the door behind him and walking to her bed.
He studied her, and saw that the color had returned to her face. It was the case over the past few days, and her cheeks were now almost vibrant and her lips a French pink hue. Her jet-black hair was spread loosely, with a strand sprawled over her brow, but that only adds to her attractiveness.
Isaac could not help reaching out to caress her cheek, the tips of his fingers feeling the delicate texture of it.
He furrowed his brow.
Perhaps his touch tickled her, for Irene turned her head, and Isaac promptly withdrew his hand.
“Urgh…”
Irene turned around in bed, and kept sleeping with her back facing him.
She shrugged off hier blanket when she turned, so Isaac pulled it over her before lying down beside her on what space was left on the bed. He leaned his face against her nape, and wrapped an arın around her-blanket and all-before falling asleep as well.
Despite the darkness of the night, there was warmth and sentiment in that room.
Isaac had already left by the time Irene woke up in the morning, and she was completely unaware that there had been a visitor last night.
Mr. Watson brought breakfast at eight, along with plenty of fruit. She ate them after she had her meal, and sat on the couch beside the window to breathe in the sun.
Knock, knock!
Suddenly, someone was knocking on the door, and Lionel entered before Irene said a
thing
“Irene!” He promptly got to the point. “You have to talk to Isaac Jefferson.”
After more than a week had passed, he was now more than aware of the details about the car accident Ricky was involved in. The boy had crashed into Isaac Jefferson’s car, and though no one was killed, Stan was extensively injured, even though he has recovered considerably alter treatment.
However, Isaac was now pressing charges.
