Isaac said, "Shut up if you don't have anything meaningful to say."
Zachary was speechless for a moment, but he soon said, "Why are you so cold?"
"Why don't you leave?" Isaac said quietly.
Zachary, however, stayed on the laptop and kept working. "Do you think you can send the map to the right email address if I do? You won't even find the toilet on your own without me around."
He was certainly getting bold since Isaac was blind, and Isaac had no retort aside from bellowing angrily, "Get out!!!"
"No way." Zachary remained there stubbornly. "You can't do anything to me anyway."
Isaac scowled. "You're full of it."
"Actually, I'm famished," Zachary replied. "Come on. Let's go eat once I'm done sending the email—Pierre should have something ready by now. I'm so hungry I could die!"
Isaac snorted coldly. "Still in the mood to eat? Can you actually stomach it?"
"I'd be worrying pointlessly now anyway," Zachary said, shrugging. "Since I can't do anything, I'll put my hopes on you instead!"
"Don't talk so much if that's what you're going for, and quit bothering me so much," Isaac said, rising to his feet.
Zachary quickly held Isaac's arm. "Well I can't help it. I'm your eyes now, so I have to follow you around. There's no helping it since you can't be away from me."
Zachary was more than gleeful!
If Isaac could see, he would be kicking Zachary out right about now.
Zachary would never dare mock Isaac on any other day, but since Isaac was blind at the moment and could not do anything to him, he now had the guts to be glib!
Stan made it back just as they left the study, and Isaac told Stan to eat while he returned to his room.
However, Zachary was eager to strike a nerve whenever he could at the moment. "You can't see, so you won't see Irene even if you return to your room. Just come with us to eat!"
While Isaac said nothing, Stan sneaked a peek at his face and saw that he was already glowering.
