Chapter 147
On the other end, Stan was utterly mystified.
Even if he had made a mistake and deserved a scolding, Isaac should at least make things clear.
After all, a man should at least have his crimes read out to him before his execution!
Naturally, no one could hear his musings, let alone Isaac!
“Hey, how did you get in here? Come out already, Ms. York!”
On the way back to the mansion, Isaac overheard Moneypenny and walked over to find Kathy standing
in his room, holding the box containing the photo of his parents.
His gaze turned dark and strode up to her, his voice ice cold. “What are you doing?!”
Kathy was calm and composed. “I was just curious, so I took a look.”
“Put it down already, Ms. York,” Moneypenny told her. “That’s very precious to Master Isaac
“But it’s mine,” Kathy said confidently-even though it was the first time she had seen the .silver crucifix.
After all, Henry had taught her to say that, adding that the owner of the silver crucifix was very
important to Isaac, and that he would be nice to whoever it was.
“What?” Isaac narrowed his eyes. “You’re saying that it’s yours?”
“Of course. It’s a keepsake from my father, but I lost it so long ago. Ask my grandfather if you don’t
believe me.”
Kathy reared her head and showed no signs of guilt at all, and anyone who saw her would be
somewhat convinced.
“If it’s yours, how did you lose it?” Isaac asked, staring fixedly at her.
“I don’t remember,” Kathy replied. “I must have been a child at the time.”
She avoided mentioning anything specific since it had been a while anyway. If she did, she would
appear a little eager, and someone as sharp as Isaac would just get suspicious.
By being ambiguous and vague, Isaac would just get curious enough, and eventually be convinced that
it was hers, and that she was the one who saved him.
“Perhaps the crucifix you lost simply looks like this one?” Moneypenny suggested, affording Kathy a
chance to strengthen her claim.
“No, I remember that this is the one, down to the necklace. Why wouldn’t I remember a gift from my
father?”
Then, putting up a miserable look, she said, “This is very important to me. May I have it back?
Isaac became silent, but did not give in right away.
He walked
up and took the chest from Kathy, opening it to check its contents.
There was a look of tenderness in his eyes when he remembered those clear, crystalline eyes he saw
all those years ago.
Even after so long, he remembered that face and those eyes when he regained consciousness after
almost drowning.
“If it really is yours, I’ll return it to you.” With that, Isaac shut the chest and returned it where
it was.
He was going to leave, but it seemed that he must stay now-at the very least, he must ensure that
Kathy had been here at Jefferson Manor when he was rescued!
Kathy tamely pouted. “Fine.”
Moneypenny then smiled. “Shall we head to the dining hall? Dinner is ready.”
Isaac told him, “Lock my room from now on.”
With that, he turned and strode off.
“Of course,” Moneypenny said, and traded glances with Kathy.
Even if Isaac was angry, they did what they came to do.
Both Cedric and Henry were already waiting at the dining hall.
Seeing his granddaughter arrive, Cedric asked, “So, how was your stroll? Do you remember this
place?”
“I do,” Kathy replied as she walked up to him. “You brought me here for a funeral, and I also remember
saving a boy from drowning.”
Isaac had sat down quietly, but looked up at her when she said that!
