Chapter 944
As Isaac blinked, Irene noticed the scarring on his face from his fall, which had since recovered.
She gently touched his face and eyelids, murmuring, 'It was so difficult for us to find you. How could I leave you?"
Isaac held her wrist and said quietly, "There's this couple who saved me. I can't leave them.’
"Well come with you," Irene said-from her perspective, a savior of Isaac's was her savior too.
"Why don't we leave together and strategize instead?" Zachary then suggested. "We don't know who our enemies
are, and going in recklessly would make us passive."
Isaac thought about it, but Zachary was definitely making sense.
Moreover, he was blind, while James had yet to arrive.
This was not the time to go back to the vineyard!
"Yeah," he said. "Let's go somewhere safe and decide how we can help them."

Isaac was being hesitant as he walked, even shambling.
And as she looked at him, puzzled, she realized that he was not looking at him.
He was scowling and quietly said, "I'm fine."
Irene had definitely been too excited to notice anything wrong with him, but now she did.
His eyes were not even on where he was going but darting everywhere without a focus.
She had a bad feeling about that, and her heart clenched.
She tentatively raised her hand in front of his eyes and waved, but he did not react at all and his eyes never moved.
Zachary froze.
"Isaac-"
He was about to speak, but Irene shook her head at him, telling him to stop.
Isaac must be in a delicate state at the moment even if he did not show it, and he had always been good at
pretending.
Still, Irene slowed down and discreetly watched out for him.
Isaac, however, can sense her reaction changing.
But since she did not mention it, he did not say anything.
They all soon returned and got into the jeep, but they were noticed just as they were about to drive off.
Bang!
A shot hit the jeep, which was not bulletproof but sturdy enough compared to the average sedan.
Stan promptly floored the gas pedal and turned the jeep around on the bumpy road while the tires spun above the
pebbles and left the jeep shaking endlessly!
Irene kept one hand on the handle while holding tightly onto Isaac, worried that he would hit himself from the
violent shaking because he could not see.
However, it would not be that difficult for him to find a balance point even if he could not see. The jeep was only

Still, he did not try to look for one and instead stayed quietly in Irene's embrace.
He smiled self-deprecatingly-to think that he had fallen that far, that he had to be protected by a woman.
Should he be pleased or upset?
That being said, Stan was wise to pick a jeep. The horsepower was certainly up to task, and they easily spun around
despite the bumpy path and thundered forward!
Nonetheless, it was still very jerky inside the jeep, and the people chasing after them were still firing at them.
As the rear windshield shattered, Isaac grabbed Irene and dropped beneath their seats, while Stan held on to the
wheel and jammed his foot further down the gas pedal!
Fortunately, the pursuers did not bring their car, and they gave up soon after they realized they could not catch up.
And around half an hour later, the jeep finally reached an even road and the ride smoothed out.
Stan asked while he drove, "Where to?”
"It's too isolated here," Zachary said. "Let's just go somewhere with people for now."
As he spoke, he glanced at the nearest locations on the map and decided on a small town. "Here. Vos."
In the backseat, Irene suddenly asked Isaac, "Are you hurt?"
She just noticed that he was bleeding from the neck!
