Irene looked Isaac straight in the eye. "Uglies don't cheat."
Isaac raised a brow, his visage alluring. "Did I cheat?'
"...Not at the moment, but I wouldn't know. In the future…"
Isaac leaned in and bit her nose. "I won't."
"Ow." Irene grunted, pushing him away.
Isaac beamed at her, his eyes twinkling beneath his thick lashes. "Where does it hurt?"
Irene was speechless.
Getting frisky again, huh?
"Stop it, I'm not in the mood," she said sternly.
"Yeah," Isaac tamely got off her, while both of them composed themselves and straightened their clothes.
"By the way, did you go to my office to look for me?" Isaac asked.
"Yeah," Irene replied. "I had something to talk to you about, but it's resolved now."
"Hmm." Isaac frowned. "What could be resolved so quickly?"
"I was sued," Irene admitted. "That's why I wanted your help looking for a good lawyer. You weren't there, so James introduced me to a member of your legal team. The man looked formidable, even agreeing to help me resolve it."
She did not want to trouble Isaac, but James would have told Isaac even if she did not. And since she was not resolving the issue herself, she had to ask for help.
"Yeah," Isaac said. "You can trust the legal team."
Irene nodded. "Yeah, so just properly deal with Ian Jefferson and that funeral. I'll consult my lawyer about the lawsuit."
Isaac nodded as well. "I'll talk to them too.
