Chapter 98

Irene was frowning because Harvey was the one who had sent her the invitation to an art exhibition he was organizing!

What was his purpose? What did he want?

She could not tell.

“What's on your mind?” Isaac asked as he entered to find her pensive with a card in her

hand. Holding out his hand, he asked, “What is that?"

Irene was speechless for a while, but soon

told him, “You should get back to work. I

know you're a busy man, but Mrs. Watson is here with me. Don’t worry

I won't leave again until you've agreed to divorce me.”

In the end, she understood very well that as long as he refused to divorce her, she would never feel peace even if she escaped. There was every chance that he could capture her again, not to mention she could not run away with a broken foot even if she wanted to—

his vigilance was simply overkill. The only thing she could do to lead a peaceful life was to make Isaac let her go on his own accord
