Chapter 747

Isaac said, "I have to take a trip to Franconia."

He just received word from Stan Hill that Harvey Gooding had been found.

He happened to have work to do over at Remy as well, so the trip was inevitable.

’I might have to travel to Minerva too, so I'm not sure how long it'd take." "Work?" Irene asked.

Isaac mused to himself for a couple seconds and said, "Yeah."

He did not mention Harvey, leaving Irene to think that he really was busy.

It was not surprising that James would not ask Isaac for leave... But were they really so busy that they would not

have time for a wedding?

Having money gets things done, however.

Maybe they could just arrange for everything first, and then all it takes was for the bride and bridegroom to show

up at the wedding hall!

Erin could decide on the details herself, too-she did not have to work, so she had all the time she needed.

Helping Isaac out of his jacket, he said, "I ran into Erin today."

Isaac narrowed his eyes, but he did not react otherwise.

Irene watched his reaction as she said, "She's pregnant."

Isaac looked up then, so she asked, "She wants to get married, but James said he only has time to get their

marriage registered, but not for a wedding. Are things busy at work now?"

Isaac knew what she meant right then, and he asked, "What do you want me to do?" "Give James time off for a

wedding," Irene quickly said. "I mean, if things aren't too busy..." "Got it. I'll discuss it with him." "Actually, what do

you think about Erin?" Irene asked, trying to probe Isaac's standpoint, or if he considered Erin his sister.

Isaac leveled her a cool thing. "What are you getting at?" "I mean, under what capacity are we going to attend the

wedding? As the bride's family, or the bridegroom's friends?"

Isaac said nothing and headed toward Tommy's room, but Irene told him that he was asleep.

Pausing then, he said, "Just do as you see fit. I'll check on Tommy."

He entered Tommy's room anyway, but Irene smiled-even if he refused to say it, he was probably willing to accept

Erin as his sister.

The next day, Irene arrived at her office to find everything tidied up, with every document labeled by type and

sorted on top of her desk, making reading convenient.

Finn Crowe then appeared with dark circles under his eyes. "Satisfied?" "Good work," Irene said, giving him a good

look.

Finn pursed his lips. "I didn't get to sleep."

Irene said nothing. She quickly changed into coveralls and took a piece of paper out of her bag, and gave it to Finn.

"Inform everyone that we will be having a meeting at three, and purchase everything listed here. Get them before

three, and bring them back to this building without anyone knowing."

Finn frowned. "Everything on this list? And why without anyone knowing?

I'm no thief."

Irene sat down and took out one of the documents. "You're not-l'm not telling you to steal, and I've already

transferred you the money." "I'm your assistant, not your errand boy. Helping you would be for work- not as a

lapdog." "Yes, you are my assistant, meaning that you should be assisting me. I need everything in that list, so

what's wrong with having you get it for me?" To Finn, it somehow sounded both right and wrong at the same time.

"So? Aren't you going to do it? If you fail, that just means that you don't even have what it takes to be an assistant."

"It's 3 PM, right? It's still morning right now, so that makes almost a day. Why can't I get everything? Just watch."

As Finn headed outside he was grumbling, "I'll get it done even if I don't eat.

Irene smiled, finding him ever amusing.

Soon, it was 3 PM, and time for the meeting...
