Chapter 705
Harvey stammered, "J-Just let him go... I'll delete everything I have.'
Still, James warned him, "You’d better make up your mind, and don't think about playing tricks. Otherwise, we would
just capture him again-and when we do that, it won’t just be physical torture.”
Harvey certainly had a plan and he glared at James after what he said.
James sneered right then. "What's that look for? Did you fall in love with me?”
Harvey really wanted to spit in James’s face just then, but he just did not have the strength.
"I'll talk to Isaac," he demanded.
James gave Harvey a look, but he said nothing and turned to leave.
Isaac was standing in front of the window at the room outside, and James walked over to him.
"Harvey is going to talk."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeconds of silence ensued before Isaac turned around. "Bring him here."
"Yes, sir,” James returned inside and beckoned for his men to drag Enrique outside.
Isaac walked into Harvey’s room after that and lowered his gaze coolly at all the blood on the floor.
Calmly turning away, he walked up to Harvey’s bed.
"Before I give you what you want, can you answer one question?" Harvey asked, feebly looking up.
"No." Isaac did not have time to waste with him. "You can keep dragging your feet, though-l just hope that your
assistant will survive that long."
"You're despicable." Harvey snorted coolly-he would be beating Isaac up if he could move.
"I'm not even a fraction as despicable as you," Isaac growled, already losing patience. "Keep this up, and I'll have
my men kill him right now."
Harvey was certainly reluctant.
He finally made Isaac lose his mind, breaking that calm composure of his.
Giving up now meant he suffered all that torment for nothing.
Even so, allowing his men to die would be worse than that.
"Enqique doesn't know much, and he doesn't know what I kept as backup... There's this account with scheduled
mail—if I don't delete it in six months, everything would be sent to the major media outlets. I used a new computer
for insurance as well, and I kept it hidden in a secret room in my study."
Naturally, Isaac had to go personally.
The contents must not be seen by anyone else, and he would only be at ease if he wiped everything out himself.
He left Harvey and Enrique with James right then, since it would take some time to reach Sunny City.
Meanwhile, Irene was formally inducted into Hotmesh Research, and he was certainly invested in her work just so
that she can forget the mess with Harvey.
To avoid seeing Isaac, she stayed in the building long after work, only returning around midnight.
She was bathing downstairs and she ran into Sheryl Harris, who happened to be there for a drink of water, when
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe stepped outside.
"Is the bathroom upstairs broken?" Sheryl asked.
Irene averted her eyes. "No... I just thought that it's late, so I decided to bathe here before going upstairs."
Sherly gave her a tender look. "Didn't want to wake Isaac because it's late?"
Irene simply kept his head down, neither explaining nor denying it.
"Things are getting along well, huh? I'm happy for you. Wait, he didn't call you? He actually hasn't come back either.
Maybe it's a business trip, or he's just working overtime?"
"He's not home yet?" Irene blurted, but quickly switched gears. "Oh! He did call me, saying that he had something
to handle at work. I was so busy I forgot."
She smiled, pretending as if things were fine between her and Isaac so that Sheryl could not tell.
"It's very late. Off to bed with you!" Sheryl said then, and Irene nodded.
Still, her smile faded when she arrived upstairs.
Was Isaac not coming home just to avoid her?
