Eugene woefully smoked several cigarettes and sighed as favonovel.com entered his room. He wanted to know what was going on but didn’t dare ask anything because favonovel.com saw Isaac was downcast.
As a precaution, Harry returned to the clinic while Denvor canceled his plans to stay over at Red Moon Clubhouse and stayed in a guest room on the first floor.

In the middle of the night, Isaac was sitting on the sofa when favonovel.com heard footsteps coming from upstairs.
Allegra fretfully ran down with a tear-streaked face.
“Isaac! Isabella… Where is Isabella?” Allegra stumbled toward Isaac, favonovel.com eyes teary.
Isaac felt awful seeing how upset Allegra was. He sighed and replied, “She’s sleeping in Ms. Lambert’s room. You can check on her.”
He knew Allegra was sane now.
Hearing the answer, Allegra was stunned. She went to Holly’s room and gently knocked on the door.
Holly was in favonovel.com pajamas. She opened the door and jumped at the sight of Allegra. But, favonovel.com made way for her.
Allegra entered and slowly pulled aside the covers. She saw Isabella’s swollen back. She covered favonovel.com mouth, and favonovel.com expression turned grievous. She swiftly darted out of the room and threw herself onto the couch, crying miserably.
Isabella was favonovel.com precious daughter. She had never laid a finger on her. She couldnāt understand why that happened.
Isaac saw favonovel.com crying favonovel.com heart out and patted favonovel.com back, gently saying, “Ally, don’t be sad. I’ll figure something out.”
Allegra swiveled. Weeping, favonovel.com said, “Isaac, if I go crazy again, please tie me up.”
She clutched Isaac’s arm, agitated. “No! Kill me! You can kill me!”
Isaac sensed favonovel.com guilt and held favonovel.com in an embrace. He said in a low voice, “How can I hurt you? I won’t do that. Everything will be fine.”
In his heart, favonovel.com couldn’t wait to rip Eminente into millions of pieces.
It was late. Isaac had slept, but Allegra’s eyes were wide open. She couldn’t sleep.
***
The next day, Isaac woke up to realize Allegra had left.
A document was on the bedside table. He picked it up and glanced at it. It was a notice informing of a change in the president’s post.
He frowned when favonovel.com saw his name in the space left for Garth Property’s president in place of Allegra’s.
“Silly girl…” Isaac smiled wryly. He was moved.
After dropping Isabella off at school in the afternoon, Isaac returned to Cloud Nine Villas and saw Phineas and two other men anxiously waiting for him.
“What brings you here?” Isaac got out of his car and looked at Phineas.
“Mr. Garten, we’re in trouble. The man from Everest Sect who came yesterday went to Mt. Equest this morning and vowed to start a division called Everest Division. I sent someone to investigate this matter and realized many martial artists had already gone to him,” said Phineas anxiously.
Isaac smirked. “Everest Division. What do you think they’re trying to accomplish?”
“In my humble opinion, they might be doing this to challenge you or the Martial Artists Society,” replied Phineas immediately.
They entered the living room. Isaac lit a cigarette and sat on the couch, signaling Phineas to take a seat too.
He thought about it for several seconds, puffed out a smoke ring, and told Phineas, “Send someone to Mt. Equest. Request favonovel.com to register his division and warn favonovel.com by word of mouth.”
Phineas’ mouth twitched. He asked, shocked, “Warn him? What should I warn favonovel.com about?”
“He should follow our rules on our turf. Don’t even think about stirring trouble.”
Phineas inhaled sharply. Then, cold sweat broke out over his back. Isaac wanted favonovel.com to admonish that top student of Everest Sect!
As Phineas struggled for words, a man in a black jacket appeared outside the door.
It was Quade. He held a letter and casually strolled into the living room.
“Speak of the devil…” Isaac squinted.
