Chapter 682
Irene said, "Robin Lynd was going to jump even if Ricky didn't push her. I'm also convinced that there was someone who goaded her into it."
Isaac turned toward her just then. "What?"
"Didn't you see that it was Robin before you came upstairs? What did you do to her after you dumped Ian Jefferson at Jefferson Manor?"
Isaac frowned.
While he did see a corpse, there was a huge crowd around it and it was too much of a bloody mess for him to recognize who it was.
That was why he would never have known that it was Robin if Irene never mentioned it-they released her after dumping Ian home, and he presumed that releasing Ian would keep her in line.
He never saw it coming, but it was almost unsurprising that a villain would continue to be one! They would never let up even with acts of charity!
While it was fine that she was dead now-it meant one less loose end to worry about-the consequence was far worse.
He had been preparing the wedding for a while, and it had already been delayed in the first place.
And now...
He certainly felt sorry for Irene.
Irene, on the other hand, was concerned for Ricky and not that their wedding had to be called off.
"Ricky did this for me. Don't let him go to jail-you have to do something about this."
"I know," Isaac replied.
Ricky had calmed down considerably, but he had never felt this bewildered or terrified.
He had committed murder-he was still afraid inside even if it was not premeditated!
"Brother-in-Law, you have to help me. I really didn't mean to push her... She was dragging Irene to the window and I was so furious, I pushed her!'
Suddenly utterly humble, he no longer addressed Isaac as Mr. Jefferson-all he wanted right then was to emphasize that he was Irene's younger brother in hopes that Isaac would save him.
He could not go to jail-what would happen to Lulu Adams if he did?
Zachary Slate would just steal her away!
