Chapter 691

Irene panicked, sensing that Harvey was different now.Softening her tone, she said, "It's ungentlemanly of you to take out your grievances on a woman, Harvey. Your quarrel is with Isaac, so take it up with him—""Oh, but I am. He's destroying my company, so I'm destroying his woman. Isn't that fair?" Harvey licked his lips. "You'll both suffer!"Irene looked around the room then and saw a closed window to the right. She judged that her body could squeeze through it and it was her only chance to escape. Keeping her distance from Harvey, she started to move slowly toward it. "Calm down, Harvey. We can talk about this.""Talk? Do you think I'm an idiot? There's no going back now!" Harvey saw through her intentions right then. He snapped smugly, "Trying to run again?!'Realizing that he had caught on, Irene dashed to the window at top speed—it was the only way and there was no time to think!However, when she tried to open it, she found that it was stuck in place, refusing to

Irene struggled to get out of bed, retaining the last ounce through her experience as a doctor.Her only intention was to escape, because she must!However, Harvey was not even worried that she would run. He simply watched as she struggled, even sitting beside the bed and crossing his legs.He knew that Irene was a tough nut to crack, and he therefore tested the drug on others before injecting it into her, even ensuring to up the dosage on her!No matter how calm she was, she would never win against a drug that affected her mind.Her feet were powerless and simply slid off the bed even when she managed to move them to the edge of the bed, causing her to tumble as she could not stand.Harvey got up and picked her up in her arms, but Irene did not have the strength to push him away even though she felt repulsed. "I'm begging you, Harvey. Let me go…"Harvey gently put her back on bed, leaning on top of her as he said, "Do you think Isaac would let me go if I do?""I can tell him

Lulu flung her wrist, shaking Zachary's hand off, only for Zachary to catch her again, even going further as to wrap his hand firmly around her waist. "I know you hate me, Lulu, and I know I was wrong—but our love was true. Why do you refuse to give me a chance?""Why should I, after you hurt me?" Lulu asked in return. Zachary did not deny it. "Nobody's perfect. Is there anyone who does no wrong? I admit I was at fault, and I'm willing to change. Isn't that enough?"Lulu pursed her lips. "What did I ever see in you?"She was puzzled—was she an idiot in the past to fall for him?Zachary remained obstinate. "I'm not letting you go whatever you say."Lulu was incensed. "You're unreasonable!""Say whatever you want!" Zachary did not care!That was when Mrs. Slate returned from the hospital and she frowned when she saw the commotion in the living room. "What are you doing?"An idea immediately came to Lulu's mind when she saw Mrs. Slate and she turned toward Isaac. "You want m

Chapter 694

Isaac was not concerned at first, but his face turned grim when he saw Irene in the video.She was lying on a bed with Harvey sitting right beside her.Even their conversation could not be clearer, especially when he said, "Scared, aren't you? Think I'm disgusting? But that's what I want, for both you and Isaac to be disgusted!" With that, he no longer teased her, and instead, he tore through her clothes.The video did not stop there, however—Isaac watched with his own eyes as Harvey completely undressed Irene, and once she was nude, he leaned downwards…Bang! The laptop lid was shut so violently the resounding bang could shatter the glass wall!Isaac's hand, still on top of the laptop, clenched into a fist. Veins bulge over the back of his hand while his chin clenched and his temples twitched.Fury overflowed in his veins and his eyes turned bloodshot! He sprang to his feet at the next instant, kicking up a cold gust in his wake as he strode outside while making a call.

Isaac had never lost his cool or his mind like this!After flooring Harvey, he lifted Harvey again and punched him in the face again.As Harvey kissed the floor again, his face was numbed from overwhelming pain. All he could taste was the increasingly thick scent of blood and something hard in his mouth.He spat it to the floor, and it turned out to be one of his teeth.He picked it up, frowning as more blood streamed out of his mouth.Still, he licked his lips and looked up at Isaac before bursting into loud, ironic laughter."Do you think you could fix anything even if you kill me? Haha!" He guffawed even as he lay on the ground, since he was not getting up anyway. "I've never won against you, but I finally did it, huh?"Isaac kept glaring at him, the vein on his temples bulging and throbbing!Suddenly, James kicked Harvey. "Shut up already!"He then moved up, intending to gag Harvey—Isaac would kill Harvey anyway if he kept running his mouth.However, Isaac stopped him

Harvey grinned with considerable difficulty. "Why don't you give me Irene—"Before he could finish, however, Isaac had already thrown him into a pond with a loud splash!Harvey was splattering water everywhere—he could swim, but he had long since been left exhausted by Isaac's torment and he was on his last breath.He did not struggle at all underwater, and simply kept sinking.As Isaac turned around, he saw James and growled, "Don't help him."James lowered his head. "Yes, sir."However, once Isaac had gone far enough, he beckoned for his men to quietly fish Harvey out of the pond.If Harvey was killed, there was no cleaning up the ensuing mess—what if all the videos and images of Irene went online? He knew Isaac well enough to tell that he was not that impulsive, and that he had only lost his calm from sheer rage this time.As Isaac drove away, James followed suit.The entire mess was so abrupt that he had a hard time letting it sink in, and he had to follow Isaac since he

Chapter 697

Seth had never been slapped, and his right cheek certainly stung.Nonetheless, Irene asked icily, "Does it hurt?""That's not the point," Seth quickly retorted. "I'm a man, and I can take a slap, but you're hurting my dignity here. How could I do this so casually…" Irene's slap was certainly loud, drawing much attention and leaving him blushing. "We're in a public place. Can't you see that everyone is watching?"Irene rose to his feet then. "If you were actually a fellow conspirator and not a tool, it would be a knife and not a slap."Seth turned pale, finally realizing the gravity of the situation, and he asked, "What did Harvey do?"Irene ignored him and simply strode out. Seth gave chase and caught her. "Come on, just tell me—"Irene shook him off. "Let me go!"Her almond eyes were glaring as if spitting fire—it was the first time she flipped out after what Harvey did.Still, she soon quelled her flaring emotion and said with utter coolness, "Don't ever show up around

Isaac paused before he got out of the car. "Yeah?" Irene held his gaze and said, "Let's talk."Isaac returned to his seat and shut the door.He was quiet for a while before he finally asked, "What about?"She nervously clenched her hands and braced herself for a while before finally saying, "I really mind." It was out of context, but Isaac understood what she meant. "So?" he said even as his gaze darkened a little, and he finished before Irene could speak. "Don't think about it. Let's go home—our kids are waiting."The last part was to remind Irene that they already had two children. Even if something happened, they should face it together instead of deciding to split up so lightly—that would be irresponsible. He then reached for her hand, but she shook him off as if repulsed.It was on reflex, and she stunned even herself.However, when she looked up, she found his hand still hovering above, waiting."Sorry," she said, lowering her head—she did not mean it, but she ha

Isaac arched his back but refrained from touching Irene—he simply picked up her blanket and adjusted it for her.Then, he stayed there for a moment and said ever so softly, "I don't mind."Those words left tears welling up in Irene's eyes.She kept her eyes tightly shut, and firmly bit her lip, holding it in so that she would not make a sound.Even so, her tears trickled out along the corner of her eyes, flowing over her nose and disappearing into her hair. As her body started to shudder, Isaac wanted to comfort her, but his hands hovered in the air for a moment before lowering.She needed time, and him being close would only add to her pressure.He breathed a deep sigh and returned to their bed, but lay on his side, watching her on the couch.They were going to have trouble sleeping tonight!…The night certainly seemed to stretch on, and both of them pretended to have slept and just woke up in the morning despite the dark circles under their eyes.Still, they both acted a

It was Rosa, Harvey's mother."Hello, Aunt Rosa? It's me, Seth!" Seth said over the phone. "I can't seem to reach Harvey at the moment…""Don't go looking for him if it's nothing important," Rosa replied, and she sounded despondent. "What? Why?" Seth asked.Rosa naturally knew about what happened at Harvey's company.It was also obvious her son was up to something when he sent away her daughter-in-law and her grandson. Naturally, she tried to talk him out of it, but Harvey would not listen, and she could not do a thing about his stubbornness. "Don't bother," she told Seth, not wanting him to get involved. Seth, however, pressed, "What happened? You're making it sound so serious…""Don't ask. Just remember what I told you.""Okay," Seth replied begrudgingly.Once he hung up, however, he called his clinic and applied for leave—he decided that he must find Harvey.…Lulu Adams visited Barbara and her husband soon after she left the Slates.She was worried that she had tr
