Chapter 730

Ricky was lying on the road and bleeding profusely from his forehead.

The driver stood nearby, repeating in panic, ’I didn't run into him, I didn't... He hit my car..."

’Just help me already!" Irene snapped-she could not move Ricky by herself.

Moreover, he was at risk after having recently undergone a heart transplant, leaving his body weaker than most.

She must get Ricky checked, and had no time for the blame game.

The driver quickly went up and carried Ricky to Irene's car, but although the chauffeur floored the gas pedal, it was

not until half an hour later that they reached a hospital.

Although Irene did not work there, she had a medical license and was given permission to stay while a doctor

examined Ricky.

Fortunately, he was fine-just unconscious from a concussion.

They cleaned the cut on his head and kept him for observation, and he would be allowed to leave if he did not feel

unwell over the next 24 hours.

As Irene stepped outside, she saw that the driver had come as well. He was worried about getting into trouble, but

he came regardless and was worriedly pacing around the walkway uneasily.

’You can go now," Irene told him.

He began, "I've called my insurance company-"

’It's fine. We won't pursue further responsibility, so you can go now!"

Irene did not want trouble either, and Ricky was fine anyway.

'Oh... So, I'll be going now?’ the driver asked tentatively.

He appeared surprised that she was so agreeable, and he was actually a little skeptical.

’Yeah," Irene replied, and he finally left.

Since there was no one around, Irene told his chauffeur to stay. "Wait here until Ricky wakes up. Then you can go."

'Yes, ma'am," the chauffeur replied, and Irene left, taking a taxi home.

Dinner was over by then, and she washed her hands before checking on the children.

Tommy really loved his baby brother and treated him like a toy, and would always be staring at the baby or pinching

his little face.

He was in his pajamas now, but insisted on hugging his baby brother to sleep.

Sheryl Harris had no choice but to let Tommy play with the little one a little. She would not let him near the bed

when it was bedtime, or he would keep the baby awake!

’Mama." Seeing Irene, he happily threw himself into her arms.

Irene patted his head. "Were you a good boy?"

’Yes," Tommy said after thinking about it, and then chirped, ’I helped Grandma take care of Baby."

'Oh, all grown up I see," Irene said lovingly.

Bzzt...

Her phone suddenly vibrated, and she whipped it out and answered.

It was James. "Mr. Jefferson is drunk."

'Where is he?’ Irene asked.

James gave her the address and she hung up.

Putting away her phone, she hugged Tommy and said, "Go to bed soon. Mommy is going to bring Daddy home."

Tommy nodded tamely. "Come home soon.'

"Yeah." Irene smiled, and stepped outside.

Seeing that she was leaving again, Sheryl said, 'Have you eaten? We saved something for you."

'1 did. I'll be right back."

Sheryl did not say anything since she understood the nature of her work, but told her not to be late anyway.

Irene nodded and drove out on her own since the chauffeur was in the hospital.

She arrived at the designated address: a nightclub, where things were starting to get lively.

She headed within and found the room James mentioned.

She opened the door then, and found...
