Chapter 435
Stan became excited. "What is it?" "Who's the reason Irene's dead?"James asked.
Stan suddenly stared at James as if he was stupid. "lan Jefferson, ofcourse!"
"And what if lan Jefferson suddenly escaped-"
“There's no way he can-I'd never allow him to," Stan cut James shortright then, growling viciously, “Til break his legs if he does.”
James did not stop him from finishing, and instead waited until Stancalmed down before explaining, “I know. He isn't getting away, but wecan let him go..."
“Let him go?" Stan exclaimed, unable to catch on to what James wasplanning just then. "It's already merciful enough that we're not cuttinghim into pieces. Did you suddenly have a brain fart or something?"James rolled his eyes at Stan. "Could you pipe down and hear me outfirst instead of interrupting every single time?"
Stan finally did so. "Fine. What were you trying to get at?" he asked."Since Mr. Jefferson is still grieving Irene, what do you think wouldhappen if we suddenly told him that the one who killed her hasescaped? Don't you think he'd quickly pull himself together to seekvengeance for the one he lost?"
Stan pondered over the idea James proposed.
Nothing seemed to be working at the moment, since even Tommy couldnot lure Isaac out of the operating room.
In that case, they might have to use Isaac's hatred to spur him oninstead.
If anything, it was worth a try.
' Alright, I'll send Tommy home right now and release lan..."
"Wait," James called out, stopping Stan as the latter left. "Don't do it soquickly-we need to prepare, and it won't do if we somehow lose lanJefferson. He's still out right now, isn't he?"
“Probably,” Stan replied. “The dart we used would keep anyone out forover ten hours."
"Dose him further to keep him unconscious and implant him with atracker. That way, we'll know where he is no matter where he goes."Stan stared at James for a moment before saying, "Good plan. Leavethis to me."
"Remember-the implant must be placed somewhere hidden so that hedoesn't notice," James added.
"Okay, don't worry. I'll get it done right now," Stan replied.
Tommy had exhausted himself from crying and could now only sniffle inStan's arms.
As Stan did not know how to take care of children either, he had tobring Tommy home and leave the baby in Sheryl and Mrs. Watson'scare.
On the other hand, James stood outside the operating room, leaningagainst the wall as he waited.
Time seemed grilling to him...
"James."
Isaac suddenly spoke from inside, and James did a double take,thinking that he had misheard.
James opened the doors gingerly, but stayed at the doorway.
"Mr. Jefferson...?”
"Find a place where I can keep her-the surroundings must be ideal.Build it if there isn't such a place.”
James did another double take. What was that supposed to mean?Was Isaac saying that they would preserve Irene's body?
Would it not be better to bury her?
“I'm sorry, M-Mr. Jefferson,” James stammered as he tried to puttogether the right words. "I think it would be better to bury her..."
Isaac leveled a cool look at James.
His expression was not severe, and it seemed like he calmed down.
However, his lack of emotion, and the absence of warmth in his eyes was actuallyintimidating just to look at.
"Are you questioning me?" Isaac asked evenly.
"No, sir," James quickly replied. "Il get it done right away."
With that, James turned and hurried off, as if he would get eaten if he lingered asecond longer.
When Isaac was being calm, the pressure he seemed to project was much moresuffocating than when he was angry.
Meanwhile, Stephen was in another room within Melville Hospital, staring at thepatient in bed as he asked, "Have you made up your mind?"
