"Yeah?" Issac replied-he wanted to know the result too.
"No," Irene said, shaking her head.
The baby was not related to her at all!
There was disappointment in Isaac's eyes, but it quickly faded as he gathered Irene in his arms, softly assuring her,
"It's fine. It doesn't matter- we'll keep looking. I've even received word from my PI that he's on Kim Sherwood's trail.
We just have to be patient."
He had already prepared her for this outcome, just as he had prepared himself.
It was obvious that Harvey would not bring their child out in the open if he really snatched him, and this simply
proved that.
Even so, Irene could not help feeling despondent. She was worried that her child was suffering...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, calmness and composure was a doctor’s tenet, and she quickly composed herself.
Turning to James, she said, "You can return the child to Harvey now."
They had no reason to keep him since he is not their child.
"But is the boy Harvey's?" James pointed out, but Irene did not test for that.
What was the point anyway?
Still, James turned to Isaac as if to ask his opinion, who appeared silent in thought.
"Isaac?" Irene called out to him.
Coming to his senses then, he told Irene quietly, "Go home. I will handle things over here."
Irene said nothing since he clearly had a plan. "Okay."
"Your chauffeur is outside. He'll take you home," Isaac added.
"Yeah. Oh, the baby is still inside, by the way," she said, and left.
Once she was gone, Isaac beckoned to James and said, "Find out where Harvey has been over the past two months,
and whether that woman's kid is his."
"Yes, sir," James replied, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you suspect something, sir?"
"I have this feeling that Harvey showed up because he wanted to probe us," Isaac said darkly.
Specifically, using the baby to probe Irene's reaction.
James headed into the lab and picked up the baby, who was sleeping soundly because of the drugs and was not
waking up in his arms.
"Do I free Harvey now?"
"Yes, but have our men keep an eye on him," Issac replied.
"Yes, sir," James replied respectfully.
At 8 PM, Isaac had brought Mark Wickers and his research team to a dinner cruise.
Stephen Carr was absent because his wife was ill, though Zachary Slate filled his spot on the table that seated
twenty, which was perfectly fine since there were less than fifteen of them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDinner was soon served, and the menu was all gourmet selection.
While the table wafted the appetizing aroma, Irene was smiling and greeting everyone, being a cordial host despite
the matters weighing on her mind.
Tommy was able to recover quickly thanks to these people, and the dinner was a sincere gesture to thank them.
Even though Mark insisted that it was nothing that important, Irene was still grateful. "Everyone worked hard in that
lab, even losing sleep and missing out on meals. I naturally could see how hard everyone worked, so I'm really
thankful that everyone helped."
Irene offered them a toast, and Mark and everyone else graciously accepted it, seemingly reluctant to refuse since
Isaac was there with them.
As Irene boldly chugged her glass, everyone followed suit.
Naturally, Issac was grateful as well and paid everyone a generous sum of five grand each.
Most of them were afraid to take it, but Mark convinced them to, since it was both Isaac and Irene's sincerity.
Naturally, Zachary felt like he was surplus-he had not helped much, but he was a part of the dinner anyway.
When he had the opportunity, he sneaked out quietly for some fresh air.
It was very quiet, since Isaac had rented the entire cruise ship for the night.
The wind was quite cold, but just as Zachary turned to head back inside, he saw a certain person.
