Chapter 338

Irene did not really have an appetite in the first place, and even less so after learning hints about

Isaac’s past.

As a child, Irene herself had been constantly pushed around by Lionel. She could not do everything as

she wanted, and life was less than happy.

But when compared to Isaac, she was–at the very least, her parents were not murdered.

Considering that, and the fact that Isaac himself was almost killed too, she could imagine how harsh life

had been for him and could not help sympathizing.

James perceived her mood right then, and said, “Well, we’re going to return the favor soon.”

Irene nodded, but since she was eager to eat, she got to her feet and said. “You boys finish up here. I’ll

go check on Tommy–Isaac is probably hungry now.”

When she returned to their room, however, Tommy was already asleep.

Isaac was in bed, his eyes closed–there was no telling if she was asleep or napping.

She walked quietly up to him, arching her back to get a look at his face.

“Isaac?” she whispered.

When he slowly opened his eyes, she said tenderly, “You should have dinner. The food would get cold.”

Isaac, however, did not move, and merely watched her quietly.

Irene pursed her lips. “What’s that look for?”

Isaac remained silent, even as he reached out to fiddle a dangling lock of her hair.

“Irene… Have you fallen in love before you met me?”

Irene blinked–Lionel had forbidden her from getting into relationships, just as she never had the time

anyway.

Qualifying for a medical license was no easy feat.

Still, for Isaac to suddenly ask about it… what reason could there be?

Perhaps she wanted to know if she had someone else because he did? So that it was fair because she

kept someone in her heart too, so that they could let bygones be bygones?

She lowered her gaze just then, blinking her starry eyes as she softly said, “Yeah.”

Isaac’s gaze darkneed a little, but he quickly pressed on. “What’s he like?”

Irene looked away and lied. “He was an upperclassman in med school.”

“Is he handsome?” Isaac asked.

“Of course. He was the hottest guy back then. All the girls wanted him.”

Isaac snorted. “If he’s your upperclassman, he’s a doctor right now, yes? He’s not as rich as I am, is

he?”

Irene almost laughed in amusement from his childish behavior.

Turning back to him and letting her smile fade, she asked, “Have you been involved with other

women?”

“I’m hungry. I should get dinner,” Isaac suddenly said, evading the question by instinct.

Irene stopped him. “You haven’t answered me. Be honest–did you fall for anyone before me? Like

someone you’ve kept hidden in your heart.”

She put much emphasis on that last part.

However, Isaac simply could not forget about the girl who saved him.

As a child, how could he tell between love and simple admiration?

They had just met once, and it had been years since–there would have been no evidence of her if not

for the silver crucifix.

Moreover, since Irene had someone before, would it not be demanding to himself if he said that he did

not?

He was the CEO of Light Group, and was as handsome as he was rich. How could he not have a

woman

before?

Would Irene not be laughing herself silly if she realized that he had a clean slate on relationships?

Hence, being the tsundere he was, he said, “Yeah.”

Irene felt stung even as she held on to his wrist.

Still, it was understandable–only someone like her would never have relationships.

And it was all in the past anyway. Why get petty over it?

It was just a little corner of his heart, but he belonged to her.

Why obsess over it?

Though the thought still left her restless, she refrained from letting it show and smiled. “Well, since both

of us have had someone before, we’re even, right?”
