Chapter 73
It was only then that Irene suddenly remembered that Isaac was an investor in Mark‘s business, and it was natural that he would be present today.
She massaged her temples. How could she have forgotten about that?
“Get over here!” Isaac barked over the phone.
“Got it,” she said, and put away the phone while telling the man with glasses, “I‘m sorry, but I have something else to do– I have to go.”
With that, she hurried to the car waiting by the road, but just as she reached the handle for the rear door, Isaac snapped, “Ride shotgun.”
Irene reluctantly got in the front passenger seat, and she barely sat down when Isaac asked impatiently, “Can‘t you quit messing around, Irene Spencer?”
Irene frowned, thinking once again that he was crazy.
How was she messing around? How did she manage to upset him again?
Putting on her seatbelt , she simply said, “Please don‘t create an argument out of nothing.”
In truth, Isaac himself did not know what was happening just then–he was quick to anger whenever he was around her.
He never had peace ever since he met her!
Still, he restrained his anger and said, “Don‘t tell others that you‘re not married.”
Irene did not want to upset him, and since she was running away anyway, she did not mind leaving a good impression.
“Fine. Whatever you say goes.”
Isaac‘s frown eased right then, and delight showed on his face.
