Zachary was left puzzled by Isaac's sudden outburst.
"What? How did you upset you now?"
He puffed his chest confidently, his usual fear of Isaac gone since Irene was here with them.
Isaac really wanted to kick Zachary right then.
"Clean up your own mess from now on! What were you thinking, asking for her? What can a woman
like her do?! If I didn't happen to get home at the same time, she would have come alone.
Who knows what would happen then? Maybe you did not think before you did? Or maybe your brain is
just mush?!"
"It wasn't me—they took my phone,"
Zachary quickly explained.
"They called her."
Isaac was skeptical.
"How many contacts do you have on your phone? And they had to call her?"
Zachary hung his head guiltily then, afraid to look Isaac in the eye.
"Say something!" Isaac barked.
"I wanted to call her, but I didn't even though it was on display.I just slipped my phone back in my
pocket, and they saw it when they unlocked the screen."
He wanted to ask Irene about Lulu, but stopped himself from calling her because he wanted to let it go.
As such, he quickly apologized.
"Look, I know it's my fault.This won't ever happen again."
Isaac was glaring at Zachary straight in the eye.
"We won't be friends if it does."
With that, he got in his car with Irene, while Zachary braced himself and followed suit.
Taking the backseat, he poked his head between the front seats.
"Come on, you don't have to be so cold.I apologized, and you'd still cut ties with me just like that? It's
like our relationship doesn't matter to you—" Isaac narrowed his eyes.
"Relationship?"
"Brotherhood, I mean."
Zachary switched gears right then.
Still, Isaac was not forgiving Zachary so soon.
"I thought you learned your lesson, but you're still such a hothead."
Zachary hid his face behind his palms.
"Had a bit too much to drink.
He had yet to sober up from last night and had gone drinking again today, which led to all that mess.
With that, the car turned silent as it drove steadily onwards, and Isaac was silent for a long while before
he said, "The same goes for you.Do you have to mess about like him?"
Irene was caught off guard and left speechless.
Was he talking to her?
"You mean me?" she asked, pointing at herself.
Isaac kept his eyes on the road as he continued, "You can tell that the bald man and his boys are
common thugs, and those types really hold grudges.You knew that you were stepping on his toes when
you demanded money, and I told you not to talk too because IT could handle it myself.Why did you
have a go too?!"
Trene was silent and did not answer, but there was no doubt that she had been reckless.
"You weren't impulsive before.What's with you today?"
Isaac turned to glance at her then.
Irene reclined against her seat.
"Might've been the alcohol."
"Were you drinking?"
Isaac's voice became louder.
"It's the director's farewell party," Irene explained.
"It's just the one glass." Zachary leaned toward her and tried to gossip.
"Does he usually keep such a tight leash on you?"
"Shut up!" Isaac snapped.
Zachary rubbed his nose in turn.
He could keep his secrets as much as he wanted—who cares?! Soon, they returned to the hilltop
mansion, and they alighted.
Irene snuggled up to Isaac then.
"I'll watch out next time.I wasn't thinking straight."
Isaac did not want to scold her, but he really did not want her to get involved in another person's mess,
nor allow her to get hurt— he would not be able to take it.He gave her hand a squeeze.
"I'll tell James to keep an eye on things."
"Yeah," Irene murmured, just as they entered and saw the man standing in the living room.
As she turned in reflex to look at who it was, she became worried...
