Chapter 682

Irene said, "Robin Lynd was going to jump even if Ricky didn't push her.I'm also convinced that there was someone who goaded her into it."Isaac turned toward her just then. "What?"

"Didn't you see that it was Robin before you came upstairs? What didyou do to her after you dumped lan Jefferson at Jefferson Manor?"Isaac frowned.

While he did see a corpse, there was a huge crowd around it and it wastoo much of a bloody mess for him to recognize who it was.

That was why he would never have known that it was Robin if Irenenever mentioned it-they released her after dumping lan home, and hepresumed that releasing lan would keep her in line.

He never saw it coming, but it was almost unsurprising that a villainwould continue to be one! They would never let up even with acts ofcharity!

While it was fine that she was dead now-it meant one less loose end toworry about-the consequence was far worse.

He had been preparing the wedding for a while, and it had alreadybeen delayed in the first place.

And now...

He certainly felt sorry for Irene.

Irene, on the other hand, was concerned for Ricky and not that theirwedding had to be called off.

"Ricky did this for me. Don't let him go to jail-you have to do somethingabout this."

“I know," Isaac replied.

Ricky had calmed down considerably, but he had never felt thisbewildered or terrified.

He had committed murder-he was still afraid inside even if it was notpremeditated!

"Brother-in-Law, you have to help me. I really didn't mean to push her...She was dragging Irene to the window and I was so furious, I pushedher!"

Suddenly utterly humble, he no longer addressed Isaac as Mr.Jefferson-all he wanted right then was to emphasize that he wasIrene's younger brother in hopes that Isaac would save him.

He could not go to jail-what would happen to Lulu Adams if he did?Zachary Slate would just steal her away!

Isaac leveled him a cool look. "I'll do something for your sister's sake.""Thanks, Brother-in-Law."

Ricky's words were certainly sweet, and Isaac actually liked beingaddressed as “brother-in-law.

Meanwhile, they had returned to the hilltop mansion, and as Irene andRicky alighted, Isaac assured them, especially Irene. "I'll get it done,don't worry."

Irene nodded.

Then, just as he was about to leave, she told him, "You have to watchout too."

"Yeah," Isaac replied and drove away.

Ricky was still on edge, so Irene told him to relax. "It's alright. I knowyou didn't mean it."

"Irene..." Ricky tugged at her arm. "When we were in the car andpassed by the front entrance, there was so much blood...

N

"Just forget it," Irene said softly.

Ricky stared at her then. "Aren't you scared?"

She was so exceedingly calm that Ricky thought it inhumane of her-even as a man, the gore still traumatized him.

"What's there to be scared about?" Irene simply patted him on theshoulder. "Just forget it."

Ricky smacked himself on the forehead right then-how could he forgetIrene’s profession?

She cut people open at the surgical table, and she had certainly seenall varieties of bloody scenes.

"Can I stay here a few days?"

He suddenly did not want to be alone at his own home-his terror justmight subside with all the people in this mansion.

Irene agreed to it without thinking, since they had many rooms to goround.

"Wait, you have a visitor?" Ricky suddenly asked.

Irene followed his gaze, and saw her...
