Chapter 631
That pushed Harvey over the edge.
Incensed, his eyes bulged in its sockets as he growled," Don't push me, Isaac Jefferson. I'm no pushover."
Isaac raised a brow. "So you’re saying that I am?"
That immediately left Harvey speechless-he certainly knew that Isaac was no pushover either, after losing to him so many times without once coming on top.
Still, his face flushed and his split flying across the room, he snapped, "You took my son, and that means you're my enemy. I'll destroy you even if it means my death."
Even so, Isaac replied calmly, "I could say the same to you."
Harvey almost slipped. "W-What are you talking about?"
"You still don't get it?" Isaac growled, his patience wearing thin. "If you can’t remember, I'll use your son to help you with that.”
"A-Are you threatening me?" Havey gulped, more or less coming to a realization just then.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsaac knew.
But that should not have been possible! How did that happen?!
"What are you talking about?" Harvey refused to admit it regardless.
Not bothered to waste his breath anymore, Isaac growled," Keep playing dumb, and your son will suffer."
Harvey was caught in a dilemma right then.
If he did not confess, Isaac would keep his son.
But if he did, he was admitting to his crime, and even if he returned the boy, Isaac would still destroy him.
Payback was inevitable given his personality.
Even as he sat limply on the couch in confusion, he asked," How did you find out?"
"Does that question still mean a thing?" Isaac said shortly." Return my child."
Harvey felt like he could die from sheer frustration, but there was nothing he could do when Issac threatened him with his own flesh and blood.
"Let me see my son first," he said, wanting something out of this at least.
"No." Isaac denied him right away.
Harvey was left speechless right then. He was certainly not content with this!
"My plan was flawless. How did you foil it again?"
How did it end up like this in the end?
"Cut the crap and return the child," James snapped at that point, unable to stand him dallying.
Harvey sighed. "Look, the child was premature and I kept him in an incubator soon after I got him. You'd have to follow me if you want to take him back, but the condition is
that I get to see my son in turn-my lips are sealed otherwise. You may have abducted my son, but I have your son too."
Irene heard every word in the room, and she glanced at the baby in her arms before opening the door.
Harvey frowned when she saw her. "You're here too."
Irene remained silent and impassive, but she shot him a cool look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarvey knew that Irene hated him, but the feeling was mutual!
"Well, we're not even friends now."
With that, he strode outside, turning to look at Irene at the door. "Don't hurt my child."
Irene retorted icily, "I won't punish a child for your crimes."
"My crimes?"
Those words stung, and Harvey’s face contorted with rage." You're the one who broke promises and kept pushing it.
Would I have done it otherwise?!"
Seeing that Harvey's emotions were out of control, Isaac squeezed Irene's hand so that she stopped talking.
If they upset him now, he just might self-destruct and hurt their child!
Understanding Isaac's intention, Irene refrained from arguing.
Even so, Harvey was relentless.
"Why aren't you saying anything? What, do you finally understand that you're at fault?"
Rearing his chin at her, he growled, "Since you understand, apologize to me now."
James could not listen to another word of it. "Dream on, Harvey Gooding."
