Chapter 463

When Harvey was finished, Isaac growled, "Are you done?"

Harvey nodded. "More or less-"

"Get out!" Isaac snarled with a hint of rage.

Harvey was speechless-did he have to be so upset? And did he say anything wrong?

"Don't think the whole world revolves around you, Isaac! I'll do it if you won't -so stay in your goddamned perch and earn all the money while feeling none of the happiness! Keep all that money to yourself now that she's gone! M

With that, he promptly ran out of Isaac's office, denying him the chance to harass him further.

After he had to deal with the man so many times, he knew Isaac's temper- he would be eaten alive and spat out if he stayed.

And he certainly was no idiot. Why would he stay and wait for Isaac's abuse?

Back in his office, Isaac flung his pen aside and rubbed between his brows.

He was feeling frustrated for some reason, and it could well be because of what Harvey said.

He told Debbie, "Tell James to see me."

"Yes, Mr. Jefferson.”

Soon, James arrived. “Is there anything you need, Mr. Jefferson/" "Look into the Raideen family. Comb through everything and gather every little detail available on them," Isaac said.

James blinked. "We've never had any partnerships with them, though..."

He knew all the projects and businesses that the company had, after all.

“Just do what I tell you! Why so many questions?!" Isaac snapped impatiently.

He was suffering headaches, but it could either be because of his mood swings or because he was taking too many sleeping pills.

He was working hard to restrain himself, but the light spilling in from the window clearly reflected off the crystalline sheen of sweat on his forehead. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

James knew that Isaac was prone to rage since Irene's death, but his fuse seemed to get ever shorter.

He did not want to imagine what would happen if this continued—he must forget about Irene soon.

As James stepped out of Isaac's office with a worried look, Debbie went up to him, asking, “Is he furious?"

"Yeah." James sighed.

"He needs help,” Debbie said, and James was only too aware of that. Still, Debbie suddenly said gingerly, "Well, it's not like we're out of options..."

James's eyes lit up. "You have an idea?"

"Mr. Jefferson doesn't actually have to feel so hung up over Irene Spencer's death. We just need to get him involved in another relationship, and he'll forget all about her."

Debbie straightened herself as she spoke, as if so that James would see her better-it was her gesture to tell him that she was the right woman.

Nonetheless, James did not even look her way.

Her suggestion had his interest, however-a rebound relationship had always been the best way to get over another.

"Good idea, Debbie. I should start looking,” James said, and left.

After all, he was busy and had a lot on his plate.

Debbie frowned. "Hold on..."

“I know, I know. Your idea is perfect, and I'll keep that in mind. Lunch is on me." James waved her off as he left, not bothering to look back. Debbie was naturally disappointed, but had to hold it because she could not afford to show it!

Harvey was supposed to check on his mother since he returned to Zidonia, so he did not return to Minerva right away.

However, he also wanted to tell Irene about how Isaac reacted to his proposal, so he called her, complaining the instant she answered, "I'm telling you, Isaac is heartless. He only cares about money-the lives of others or even the big picture doesn't matter to him. He's a paragon of a ruthless businessman! Honestly, why would you keep having children with him? Does he deserve you?"

Irene quietly listened without responding, while Harvey was still feeling frustrated and was bent on destroying Isaac verbally, and slandered him as much as he could.

“You have no idea how ridiculous he was. He actually said that the country's problems have nothing to do with him! You've been with him for so long, but it's like your love couldn't reach him. Among all the men I've met, he's the most callous, heinous, tempestuous, petty, vindictive... He has nothing going for him at all!" "Harvey Gooding! What did you just say?!" a man barked from behind just then.
