Chapter 821

Irene lifted a brow and wondered to herself if Isaac was a frequent guest here. Why else would the man greet him so warmly? Still, she had yet to find what this place was for."And who might this lovely lady be?" the man asked, turning towards Irene just then—this was the first time Isaac brought a woman here."My wife." Isaac nodded slightly. "Please show us the way to the horse stables."Irene's eyes widened and turned in surprise toward Isaac, asking softly, "Are we riding horses?""Yeah. So? Are you afraid?" Isaac asked.Horse-riding was certainly a novelty for Irene since she had never done it before.However, she wielded scalpels and cut people open, starting out with corpses while she was an intern.In that sense, what was there to fear about horses?Spurred by her ego, she reared her chin. "Don't underestimate me."Isaac chuckled. "Sure."They headed into the building and took a small cart to the stables.It was ten minutes until they stopped outside the stables.

Still, Isaac was worrying for nothing—perhaps thanks to the discipline she honed from her job, Irene rode with calmness and steadiness.Her strong guts also allowed her to take to riding like a duck to water!She certainly loved feeling the sensation of wind against her face as she sat on the horse's back, blowing away all her worries. "Hyah!"She spurred her horse on whimsically, allowing it to dash over the near-boundless meadow to her heart's content! Isaac had been worried that she would fall off her horse, and he was therefore surprised to find her riding so well.Trotting his horse to Isaac's side, Carl asked, "Did the missus learn to ride before?"Rarely was there a woman who could ride so quickly and steadily on their first try."It is her first time," Isaac replied.Carl was naturally astonished. "Woah, she has the gift.""Her gift is in saving people, actually."Despite his usual attitude, Isaac had always been proud about Irene's career as a doctor.Even if thi

Chapter 823

Lulu told Martin very softly, "It's Johnny."Johnny was one of their colleagues and gossip would be inevitable if they were caught as newlyweds coming out to get another new bed when they already got one for their wedding!How could it not be weird? Johnny and the rest would certainly start gossiping or asking questions directly.How would Martin and Lulu answer them when that happened? Even if Martin was usually sharp and stern at his job, he was rather bumbling when it came to his own personal matters.Nodding repeatedly then, they moved to hide behind a nearby wardrobe. They waited a long while and only left when Johnny did.With that, they continued to look for a bed and made an order. However, when they were going to leave, someone called out, "Cap?"Lulu was speechless.They were seen despite all their effort, huh?Martin then asked her, "Should I turn around?"Lulu was even more speechless.Everyone in the team knew him, and he would be recognized straight away i

The voice from the other end was as loud as it was urgent. "Come in right now! The patient is going into cardiac arrest. I'll keep him alive for now!"Irene's heart skipped a beat, but she restrained her panic and answered, "Got it.""Take the back door when you come. The patient's family might stop you if you come from the front," Ray added."Got it," Irene repeated. As she put down her phone, she tried to act casual as she said, "I'm stopping here for the day. Ray Hall has just called, saying that Dennis is improving. I'll go take a look."She did not dare to mention the bad news in fear that Isaac would stop her from going. Isaac was in turn staring at her with a meaningful gaze."Really?" he asked, clearly skeptical."Yeah." She smiled. "Come with me if you don't believe me.""Alright. I will," Isaac said, rising to his feet. Irene was speechless—she thought that Isaac would not bother, and yet…Whatever. Anything could wait until after they head to the hospital."Le

Chapter 825

Since Neil was not allowed near Irene with Eagle stopping him, he insisted on being given the evidence that Irene insisted on doing the surgery herself.He could certainly get confrontational against the hospital since he had the moral high ground—they hence gave him the video where Irene declared that she would take responsibility for everything that happened, along with the entire surgical process.It was not as if the hospital was trying to push the responsibility on Irene. For one, they never got Dennis's family to approve the surgery, and Irene broke hospital regulations when she insisted on going through with it. Since they were at fault, it would only be their reputation getting hurt if things got messy, which was why they had to push everything to Irene. …At the emergency room, Irene took part in resuscitating Dennis and they managed to save him.However, he remained unconscious, and whether he woke up was still to be seen.There was also no telling if something like

Sheryl Harris passed her the letter. "Take a look at this."Irene opened it, but she calmly said, "It's nothing. It's just an express parcel."It was actually a court summons, but she stayed calm so as to not worry Sheryl.She went upstairs, pausing halfway and turning to look at Sheryl. "Mom.""Yeah?" Sheryl replied."Nothing. Just wanted to thank you. I wouldn't have so much freedom if you didn't take care of my children."Sheryl rolled her eyes at Irene. "Why are you getting so polite?"Irene pursed her lips. "I think I'll resign once I'm done with my present tasks."Sheryl had been hoping that Irene would keep working, but she should not be meddling either."You can decide for yourself," she told Irene. "Yeah," Irene replied before heading upstairs back to her room. She sat on the couch, staring pensively at the books and the court summons nearby. She was skeptical about her own decision for the very first time—she would be lying if she said that she was completely c

"There's a misunderstanding," Irene reasoned. "I just want to meet you to explain—""You actually have something to say? Weren't you eager to hide from me? Even sicking your man on me? Now you're finally eager to talk after I sued you?! I'll make it very clear—I won't settle!" Irene stayed calm even though Neil was bellowing at her. "I don't need your forgiveness, because I'm not hurting anyone. I wanted to save your father, which was why, under the circumstances—""Don't tell me. Tell the judge, and see if what you did was up to regulation!" Neil growled and added, "And don't call me again, or I'll sue you for harassment too!"Irene certainly did not expect Neil to go that far!Even as she sighed to herself inwardly, she said, "Your father is a medical researcher, and you should know why his research centers around the heart. He wants to save more people, or would you want to see him die because of heart failure? I broke regulations, but I saved your father. He would be dead if

Though Neil wanted to flip out again, he restrained himself because of the difference in strength between him and Eagle. "You're good with arguing, aren't you? Now leave, or I'm calling the cops." Eagle had more to say, but Irene stopped him. If they kept this up, they would really start fighting—and she came to make peace, not to fight."He doesn't mean it. You should calm down and listen to me telling you what happened at the time—""What happened at the time was that you did not get our consent and you implanted an artificial heart still in its test face," Neil huffed. "And now my father is lying in the ICU, hanging by a thread—and you say you are trying to save my father? Did you really, now?!"Irene was stumped.Yes, she tried to save Dennis, but she did not.Even if he was not dead, he might be soon!Still, she looked Neil in the eye and said, "I did my best—""Don't bother!" Neil waved her off. "Leave, or I'm calling security!"Irene stared at him, knowing that she

James could see that Irene was worried."Did something happen?" he asked.Irene shook her head. "I can't reach him."James thought about it. "Maybe he's just busy. Maybe his phone is just out of juice. Don't worry, he'll be alright.""Yeah, I'm not worried," Irene said, taking a deep breath before stepping inside the elevator. "I'm going now."James only realized what was happening then, and he called out to her just as she was about to enter the elevator. "Is there a reason why you're looking for him?"Irene paused and turned toward him. "No.""I can help, whatever it is," James said.Irene was quiet for a while before she said, "There is a little something.""Let's talk in my office?" James asked."Sure," she replied.…They headed to his office, where James made her a cup of coffee and put it in front of her. "So? What's the matter?" he asked as he sat down. Irene went straight to the point. "I'm looking for a reliable lawyer. Is there anyone available here?""We do

Chapter 830

Irene's call still did not reach Isaac and she could not help frowning, with worry showing on her visage. Why could she not reach him? It was certainly more puzzling that even James did not know where he was!Getting in the car while feeling uneasy, she forgot to tell Eagle to head home. Eagle had already started driving for a while before he eventually asked, "Where to, ma'am?"Irene, however, was feeling a headache with the lawsuit and with Isaac being out of reach.Closing her eyes, she said, "Home."Eagle could see her worrying from the rearview mirror, but he drove quietly.Once she reached home, Irene asked the instant she stepped inside, "Is Isaac Jefferson home?""No," Sheryl said, staring at her. "Do you always use his full name?"Irene was speechless—she was too anxious because she could not reach Isaac!Still, she tried to stay nonchalant with Sheryl. "I always do. I mean, what else should I call him? Baby daddy? That's vulgar."Sherly was amused. "Every lovin
