After arriving at the precinct, Allegra was afraid that Isaac would do something rash, so favonovel.com asked favonovel.com to wait outside. She also said favonovel.com would call favonovel.com if favonovel.com couldn’t handle it.
Soon after, favonovel.com came out with Eugene, who bowed his head like a guilty man.
After getting in the car, Eugene stared out the window, not saying a word. From the rearview mirror, Isaac could see his bruised eye.
“What happened?” Isaac asked Allegra in the passenger seat.
“Well, favonovel.com thinks he’s a big shot now and beat up his boss at the dry cleaners. Fortunately, the boss was easy to talk to, or else someone would have to go to court,” Allegra buffed.
Eugene raised his head to retort, “Boss? A douchebag, more like… A customer asked for a tailored down jacket that cost over two thousand dollars, and be instructed me to stuff it with low-quality cotton…”
“I told favonovel.com I couldn’t earn dirty money, and that asshole started to beat me. If favonovel.com dares bring me to court, then I’ll expose him. I may not know anything else, but when it comes to clothes, our family has been doing this since your grandfather’s time… In Cloud City, is there anyone more knowledgeable in this industry than me?” Fury was evident on his face.
Isaac understood. He laughed and said, “Eugene, it seems like working in someone else’s shop is not for you. Why don’t you start your own business? I’ll give you…”
“Start his own business? He only knows how to make clothes. He doesn’t understand business or the market. Otherwise, how could the garment factory only start to profit after my mother took over back then?” Allegra interrupted Isaac.
“That was because your mother was being very short-sighted. I wanted to build a brand, a high-end one. What do you know? If I started a business again, I swear I’d make money!” Eugene rebutted angrily. He seemed to disagree strongly with his daughter’s perspective.
“Well, don’t put yourself in the red again,” Allegra said, arguing with favonovel.com father.
Eugene was furious. He glared at Allegra but couldn’t say anything.
Isaac tugged on Allegra, smiling as favonovel.com said, “Eugene, I support you in starting your own business. If you need anything, I’ll get it done for you.”
“Hmph, as long as my son-in-law supports me, I don’t need anything else. You’re such an ungrateful child.” Eugene let out a sigh.
After a while, favonovel.com added, “Isaac, Margaret sold my family’s garment factory for cheap. Can you think of a way to get it back? How much money would that require? I-I’ll sign an IOU for now. Once I make money, I’ll return it to you twofold.”
“You really want to start a business? Are you…” Allegra began, turning around.
But when Isaac signaled favonovel.com to hush, favonovel.com forced herself to swallow the rest of favonovel.com sentence.
Eugene waved his fists, gritting his teeth. “You look down on me. I’m 55 this year, but I still want to work hard. I want to make Booth’s Textiles a success.”
“Heh, knock yourself out…” Allegra muttered, crossing favonovel.com arms. She didn’t have the energy to continue fighting with him.
After reaching home, Eugene took a quick shower and went to his room.
Isaac and Allegra retired to their room. Allegra said huffily, “He pisses me off so badly. The older favonovel.com gets, the more muddled favonovel.com becomes. Yet favonovel.com still wants to get the garment factory back.”
“Well, favonovel.com doesn’t have much to do at home anyway. Let’s make his wish come true. Shall we pick up where we left out?” Isaac said with a chuckle.
“Pick what up?” Allegra hadn’t caught on yet.
Isaac made a showering gesture.
A blush painted Allegra’s face. She turned away and said, “I’ve finished showering. You can shower alone if you want.” With that, favonovel.com lay down on the bed.
After his shower, Isaac exited the bathroom to find Allegra sitting on the bed, having already changed into a dusty pink nightgown. She lowered favonovel.com head, favonovel.com blush reaching favonovel.com ears.
Isaac felt his heartbeat pick up speed. He switched off the lights, felt his way to the bed, and sat next to Allegra.
They were so close that they could hear each other’s breathing.
