Chapter 683

Irene followed Ricky's gaze and saw Erin Gooding.

She was decorating the floor above yesterday, and she was now doing the same downstairs.

Tommy even picked up a loose balloon to play with.

"She's not a visitor," Irene said shortly.

Ricky nodded and asked softly, "She's not staying here, right? N

Or things might get inconvenient...

"No," Irene replied, and walked up to Erin saying, "You can stop decorating the house now."

"Why?" Lulu asked, suddenly stepping out of a room.

"Yeah, why?" Erin echoed.

"Lulu..." Ricky murmured, forgetting everything when he saw Lulu.

Lulu, however, stood motionless, her slightly cool look curbing his enthusiasm.

Cowed, Ricky did not move close to her.

Irene glanced between them, finding their exchange a little weird just then.

Still, Erin tugged at Irene's arm and urged, "Come on, tell us- what happened? Why aren't we decorating the house

now?" "Something happened, so the wedding is getting postponed, " Irene replied.

"What is it?" Erin pressed.

"It's nothing important. We can start taking everything down now." Irene said, and went to work.

Erin was left frowning-they had been working for two days now, so why was the wedding called off out of the blue?

Was it because Irene caught Isaac red-handed for having an affair? Was that why the wedding was called off?

What other reason could there be?

She became infuriated the more she thought about it and stormed off, whipping out her phone to call James.

Once she found out where Isaac was, she quickly went over, immediately demanding, "Why was the wedding called

off? Were you cheating on-"

"Erin."

James strode toward her immediately, clasping his hand over her mouth-lsaac had been glowering for a while now

exactly because of the wedding.

The man was already in a bad mood, while she was here nagging about? It would just upset him more!

"Just cut it out and go home for now. I'll tell you everything tonight."

Still aggrieved for Irene, Erin glared at him with her large eyes, but James leveled a glare of his in return!

"Fine," she snapped reluctantly.

"Good. Now go!" James let go of her, but she only left after leveling a ballsy glare at Isaac.

James was left speechless-how could she be so difficult, even glaring at Isaac like that?

Flashing an apologetic smile at Isaac, he quickly said, "She didn't mean it. Maybe she's just confused why the

wedding was called off, so..."

"That's enough." Isaac said, but he did not take offense-he naturally could see that Erin was mad for Irene's sake.

In fact, even though she was slightly afraid of him, he appreciated her sincerity in getting upset for Irene's sake.

"Back to business. Have you found anything?"

"No one had been in touch with Robin Lynd..." James replied. "Maybe she planned it all herself?"

"Are you telling me that she called in all those journalists by herself? That she has the influence to seize headlines?"

Isaac leveled him a cool look. "It's clearly planned, and I have a hunch that she would have died even if Ricky did

not push her by accident."

James became silent-it had not been a couple hours, but news of Robin's death at Globe Tower already spread like

wildfire, and he could not snuff it out soon enough.

"Keep an eye on the news," Isaac said then.

He was not afraid of the coverage-he was just worried that Irene and Ricky would be dragged into it.

After all, they were both there when Robin died, and there were cameras everywhere inside that building.

"Are you sure that any footage they have was deleted?"

"Yes, I'm sure," James replied-the instant he arrived, he moved to security and had Irene as well as Ricky's presence

erased.

"Good. You can go back to work now," Isaac waved him off.

James headed out of the door, only to find Harvey in the walkway.

"What are you doing here?" James snapped in annoyance.

"I'm looking for Isaac." Harvey snorted and headed in Isaac's office, not forgetting to knock into James as he passed

him by.

He opened the door without knocking, grinning smugly as he barked, "Isaac Jefferson! I heard your wedding was

called off!"
