Irene did not manage to find Isaac's ward from the receptionist, so she had to talk to the doctor.She headed to the VIP ward on the top floor and ran into Stan, who was speaking to the attending physician."Stan," she called out to him.Stan turned toward her and was left gaping when she saw that it was her."M-Ma'am!" he exclaimed as he hurried to her. "What are you doing here?"Irene smiled. "Can't I come?"Stan quickly shook his head. "No, it's just quite sudden. Why didn't you call?"Irene raised a brow. "Did I come at a bad time?"Stan shook his head again. "No…"Irene simply strode past him toward the doctor—Isaac never did tell her about his condition, and she naturally should find out first."Excuse me, but when are Mr. Jefferson's eyes expected to recover?"The doctor stared at her in turn. "And you are…?""His wife," Irene replied."Oh!" the doctor exclaimed, coming to an understanding just then. "You were the one who contacted me at the time.""Yes." Irene nod

Irene frowned slightly. Did Isaac really think she was Stan?To be fair to him, she never made a sound and came out of the blue.And without his vision, he naturally would not be able to tell that it was her.She watched his surprised look and smiled mischievously before speaking while changing her voice. "Mr. Hill asked me to take care of you."As she spoke, she lifted his blanket and put her hand on his chest…"Stan Hill!" Isaac bellowed right then, startling Stan outside and sending him scurrying inside. Irene did not have the time to straighten Isaac's clothes or button it, leaving his chest bare.Stan glanced between that and Irene's innocent look, and he was left frowning.What was going on there? He was not surprised that it happened since absence made the heart fonder. He was just surprised why Isaac would call him in.Smiling, he asked, "Is there something you need me for, Mr. Jefferson?""Throw out the woman you brought in!" Isaac barked grumpily.Stan was lef

Irene hesitated for a moment as she watched Isaac raise a hand, but she eventually walked up and put her hand in his palm. He grasped her fingers firmly as he gently pulled a little, and Irene followed the motion to lean in and climb into his arms."Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Isaac asked, brushing his fingers through her hair."You wouldn't have let me come if I did," she purred in his arms.Isaac sighed. "I just didn't want you to see me like this.""You're my husband," Irene said, looking up at him just then. "I'll love you however you are."And with those words, she leaned in to kiss his lips.Isaac's whole body stiffened and he rasped, "I smell like medicine."Irene stared at him—that was certainly not his issue. After all, he was just used to being proud and was therefore insecure now that he lost the initiative.She smiled. "I don't mind. What are you upset about?"Isaac smiled in return, and she lay her head on his chest to listen to his heartbeat. "Do

Irene was the one who initiated it, but she was also the one begging for mercy soon enough.Pressing herself against Isaac's chest, she said, "Your eyes haven't recovered yet…""Yes, but I'm still able-bodied…" he retorted, leaning in and reaching for her lips for a firm kiss.Since it had been a while when they were together, he really missed her… especially physically.And with Stan keeping watch outside, no one would dare to disturb them.Soon, the skies turned dark.Irene fell asleep, nestled in Isaac's arms.She groggily heard Isaac's voice—Stan just came in, bringing food.Opening her eyes, she asked, "Are you hungry?" "I should be asking that question," Isaac smiled. "What time do you think it is?"Irene glanced at the time to find that it was already night—she arrived in the afternoon.And there went an entire day.Getting out of bed and straightening her clothes, she told him, "Let's get you cleaned up."Isaac would need help with showers since he could not see,

Irene looked up to see Stan helping Isaac into the room.She quickly put down her phone and walked up to help Isaac, taking him off Stan's hand."What did the doctor say?" she asked."He's recovering well," Stan said.Irene happily forgot about Lulu, all her focus placed on Isaac just then. The blindfold over his eyes was already taken off—he could not see entirely, and most things were just a blur.Still, the doctor explained that she just had to recover a few days for a full recovery. Irene happily said, "It's been a while since I've arrived. Tommy just called last night, asking when I'm going home—we can both go home once you're better.""Yeah," Isaac replied.However, Irene was concerned.While Zachary was on hand to care for home before, Zachary's focus would be placed completely on Jean.Stan was here at Minerva with them, and James Cross came over with Erin Gooding while also being wounded.There was only Eagle back home, but she was more or less worried with two c

Sheryl was upset at that. "How's Tommy or Baby lacking?""No—they're just too young to be talking about marriage," Zachary quickly explained.He seemed to remember Irene mentioning that Isaac wanted a daughter, but Isaac probably had no hopes for that in this life.It was time for Zachary to show off his daughter when Isaac came back.Sheryl could read that smugness from his face. "Sons are a blessing for parents too.""Of course." Zachary grinned. "He's just a little too blessed."Sheryl could not say anything to that.-Irene stayed with Isaac at the hospital ward. It was huge enough for them, and there were no unconcerned people around.The day before they returned to Franconia, she received a call from Erin, who was pleased to hear that Isaac made a full recovery after asking about it. Then, Erin asked when they could return.Irene said, "We've booked a flight for tomorrow…"Erin became silent for a long while at that and appeared hesitant to speak."What is it? You

Zachary said, "That's right. You'd envy me for having a daughter while you don't."Isaac chuckled. "For now. Who knows what happens when she gets older? On the other hand, my sons would still be mine."Zachary was speechless.What was that supposed to mean? That his daughter would not be his once she became an adult?Hilarious! His Jean would always be his! How would she not be his daughter once she got older?And yet, something suddenly occurred to him and he understood what Isaac meant and was left frowning!"Isaac!" he cried, chasing after him. "Y-You'd better watch your sons! Tell them to stay away from my daughter!"Irene gave Baby a pointed look and chuckled. "That's why you shouldn't get too smug or you'd lose your daughter."Zachary was speechless. The thought that the daughter, with whom he would raise carefully, would grow up to be someone else's girlfriend or wife left him utterly frustrated.Isaac's words were especially infuriating.What was that supposed to me

Isaac could read Zachary's mind right away, but Baby was not going to be a bodyguard. How could Zachary even think of sending Baby to self-defense classes?! Dream on!Irene came over to tease Zachary. "Your daughter's still in diapers. You're getting ahead of yourself." Zachary sighed. "It's inevitable when you have a daughter, and I'd like it to be your sons instead of anyone else. At least you and Isaac won't harass Jean and would actually help care for her. And when you're Jean's mother-in-law, you should treat her nicer since she's Lulu's daughter too!" Irene was left speechless.She was still very young—becoming a mother-in-law would only happen so far in the future, and it was way too early to think about right now."I know," she said nonetheless. "Now let Isaac's rest. His eyes have just recovered.""Are you saying that I'm pestering him?" Zachary asked. Irene was speechless. Even if Zachary did not did not mean it, how could he chase Isaac around to talk about the
