Chapter 659

Irene got out of bed.

She had to keep her head reared after the surgery on her neck.Unable to see underneath herself, she knocked into a table and almostfell over.

Isaac quickly returned inside when he heard the commotion, frowningas he watched her standing there. "What are you doing?”

"Oh!" Irene gasped. "Wait, didn't I tell you to buy me food?"

"You were just sending me away while you went to the washroom,weren't you?"

"Nope." Irene did not deny it.

"Really?" Isaac simply walked up to her and scooped her up in hisarms.

Then, carrying her to the washroom, he started to loosen her pants-Shocked, Irene quickly caught her own pants while snapping, "Whatare you doing?!"

"Helping you with your potty business," Isaac replied in amusement."We're married-is there a part of you I hadn't seen?"

Irene was speechless and she simply shoved him.

It only seemed to make Isaac's grin broaden. "Getting shy, are we?""Get out.”

Irene appeared to be getting angry, so Isaac left the washroom insteadof continuing to tease her.

As the door shut behind him, he sat on the chair, whipped out hisphone, and made a call.

When Irene came out later, he scooped her up in his arms and helpedher to the bed.

"Now, lie down."

"Don't you have work to do?" Irene asked.

Isaac certainly did, but he delegated everything he could since he hadto stay here and guard her.

“I could just make more money if I lose it, but you're irreplaceable.”Irnee frowned, wondering what his deal was this time-his recentbehavior had certainly been erratic!

"Why don't you get checked?" she asked.

"Who, me?" Isaac asked in surprise.

"Yes," Irene said. "Get a CAT scan, check for nerve damage."

Isaac was speechless. Did she really want him to get sick?

"Maybe you want me to be sick so that you can elope with your formerflame, huh?"

"Get out!" Irene snapped-he really was getting crazier these days,constantly saying all sorts of weird stuff.

Isaac chuckled coolly. "It's fine if you want me out of sight, but thatwould have to wait until you're discharged.”

No matter how upset he was, he was not going to leave her be rightnow, leaving an opening for someone else.

Irene simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, even after Isaac'sfood delivery arrived and he tried to wake her.

"Fine, we can't wait until you're hungry." Isaac said.

That was when Seth arrived.

Seeing Isaac's glare, he explained, "I'm just checking the patient'srecovery progress.”

Isaac stood by the bed, keeping a close eye, and he pulled up Irene'scollar when Seth started to loosen it, leaving Seth speechless.Nonetheless, Seth smiled. “I'm a doctor. I mean no harm.”

Isaac leveled him a hostile look. “There are quack doctors t00."

Irene was left speechless, but she quickly smiled and apologized toSeth. ' I'm fine."

Naturally, Seth could sense Isaac's enmity.

"Alright. Just take your time to rest, and you'll be fine," he told Irene,and left.

Feeling utterly humiliated, Irene snapped at Isaac, "Get me dischargedright now."

Isaac stared at her. "Why? But you haven't recovered.”

'I can recover back home-I'm a doctor, I know what I should watch outfor. Now, go, or you're just going to keep suspecting everyone and sayall that nonsensical rubbish.”

“I can get you a specialist," Isaac suggested.

"Nope," she refused. "I can take care of myself-having a stranger in thehouse would just make things difficult.

“I won't get you discharged for now. I will take you home for now ifyou're not comfortable with staying in this hospital—I'll drive you hereagain tomorrow."

"That's a hassle.”

“Itisn't.”

Irene was actually amused just then. "Have you ever looked in themirror, Isaac Jefferson?"

"Why?"

“You look like one of those nagging grandmas."

Isaac was speechless.

Zachary and Lulu arrived when Isaac and Irene arrived home, whileJames and Ricky came as well.

James was there to brief Isaac about work, while Ricky wanted to talkto Irene.

As everyone ran into each other outside the hilltop mansion, Rick'seyes widened so much they could pop out when he saw Lulu!
