Chapter 617
It was Harvey who answered the door, but he appeared annoyed. "I thought you weren't coming." "I was delayed,"
Irene said flatly.
Harvey stood aside to let her in. "Come in."
Irene stood at the doorway, glancing inside warily, and she only entered after seeing someone else inside.
Harvey closed the door and asked, "What are you worried about? That I'd do something to you?”
"Have you ever succeeded?" Irene asked.
Harvey was speechless-he had to give it to her, she was certainly cunning.
Since the subject was not to his advantage, he changed it. "This is my wife, Heather."
The woman on the couch had the baby in her arms and she greeted Irene politely. "Hello. Harvey told me a friend is
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtvisiting, and that would be you, right? Pleased to meet you,".
Having no idea what Harvey was actually up to, Irene politely smiled in return. "Likewise."
Harvey walked up and put an arm on Heather's shoulder, watching Irene as he said, "We're supposed to be friends,
but she skipped out on our wedding. It upsets me greatly!"
"I can't travel far," Irene explained.
"Really?" Harvey studied her from head to toe just then, and soon came to realize. "Oh, right-you were in labor. So,
where's your child? When's the christening?"
Irene scowled, her glare turning sharp just then. "I have a question about that. You haven't been married for two
months, have you? But when was that child born?"
Harvey remained unperturbed, and clapped Heatheron the shoulder. "You tell her."
"I've been with Harvey for a while," Heather said then. "But this was a shotgun wedding."
It made perfect senses, but Irene doubted it. "Really?"
"What, don't you believe her?" Harvey asked.
"No," Irene replied shortly. "My baby is missing, and I think you abducted him."
Heather was actually surprised and she turned toward Harvey, "You abducted her child?"
Harvey shot her a glare. "No."
Then, he calmly smiled at Irene. "So, you suspect me? Do you have any proof?"
"I don't, but if you didn't do it, care to let me perform a paternity test on that baby?" Irene asked.
"When you have no proof? Are you kidding me?" Harvey sat down beside Heather then. "Why did your baby go
missing, though? Maybe you sinned so much that even the gods are upset with you?"
Irene held his gaze. "I apologize if I upset you in any way-but don't take it out on my son."
Harvey simply smiled at her silently, giving her the creeps!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Look-"
She paused, suddenly picking up a scent in the air that she would have missed if she was not paying attention.
She knew from experience that it was from a certain incapacitating drug.
What? Was this why Harvey lured her here?!
Furious, she snapped, "You're hopeless, Harvey. Don't forget that I'm a doctor-a cheap trick like this won't get me!"
To think that he would resort to such a dirty move!
Harvey was actually puzzled. "What's got your goat?"
While he was left confused, Irene said nothing and stormed out of the door, leaving him even more mystified!
He was just about to follow her and ask, but his son suddenly burst into tears.
He turned around to check on the baby.
In reality, however, it was Heather who pinched the baby and made him cry when Harvey was about to leave.
She just wanted him to stay, but that would prove to be an error in judgment!
